Why not? I can hardly imagine you're interested in what I'm doing right now.

[fessus]

I've asked like 3 times

[zauneyete]

[ He can't see it, but he is ROLLING HIS EYES ]

Fine.

I am currently working the books for my employer.

Happy? It is very exciting.

[fessus]

Right the mysterious employer who wouldn't appreciate you saying their name

Is it like accounting work? idk some of that stuff always seemed pretty cool

[zauneyete]

I'm not an accountant.

I am, however, very good at knowing where to put money to seek opportunity.

[ accountant... book cooker... they're the same. just one is used for misdeeds. ]

[fessus]

[ ... wait ]

Like an investor??

[zauneyete]

Occasionally. Sometimes it is that, sometimes it is a struggling company that needs a hand up, in the hands of those who are so very desperate for a little cash, and every now and again it is elsewhere, not to be seen from until we have need of it.

[ Investing, scrapping bankrupt companies for parts, bribery, and then just plain "overpaying" to hide funds. :) ]

[fessus]

Sounds like "investing" should be in quotes then

If it's not outright acquisitions it's favors with strings attached? The word "desperate" doesn't paint a great picture

[ Noctis, foolish and lacking in common sense, and yet strangely well-educated in business. ]

[zauneyete]

Oh no, how terrible of me, to assist the desperate and needy.

After all, if I were not able to, what would happen? Some second-rate loan shark might come in and offer them funds instead. Where would they be then?

[ As if A) He doesn't do that? and B) he's altruistic? ]

[fessus]

So what are you

The first rate loan shark? You're the one dressing up what you're doing instead of saying it outright, if it were clean and 100% legit why bother

[zauneyete]

I'm just the man who keeps the books. Nothing more.

I think you would need to look to my organization to find that deeper dark purpose. I'm only doing my job.

[ And slowly extorting them out of funds for his own criminal dealings. ]

[fessus]

You did this last time we talked too

Acted shady while hinting at smth illegal and then switched to acting like you're not in the know/aren't some big player

Your vibes are off

[zauneyete]

So what if they are? What are you going to do about it?

[fessus]

Wow you just accepted it......

Ig I just don't get the point of trying to be subtle about it [ Here, for a moment, he pauses. ]

Do you think you're a good guy?

[zauneyete]

I don't think I am. Nor do I think I am bad.

I'm merely the product of where I am from.

[ In short: A monster. ]

We Zaunites are simply different compared to the rest of you.

[fessus]

Somehow I thought you were gonna say smth different

Who's "you"? When you say different compared to the rest of "you"

[zauneyete]

Did you think I would start cackling about how only by being bad can one be good?

[ It was close. ]

Most of the rest of you Outsiders. You know, I've only met a few other people who understand what it is to act with a goal in mind, without worrying about good or evil.

[fessus]

It wouldn't have really shocked me? idk that seems like smth you'd do too

[ I'm sorry, man....... ]

Ig that'd make your life a lot easier and simpler at least huh

[zauneyete]

I don't cackle.

[ That's

That's what he has. ]

If everyone thought like me it would make things simpler, yes. More efficient as well.

1/2

[fessus]

Wow........

[ JUST LETS THIS SIT FOR A MOMENT ]

2/2

[fessus]

So you think more people should believe in anarchy? Or what

The ends justify the means?

[zauneyete]

There we are. You finally got there.

A goal is only as good as how much one is willing to take for it.

[fessus]

Are you strong enough for that? If everyone woke up tomorrow thinking like you

[zauneyete]

I'm strong enough for anything.

[fessus]

You're a fighter?
