Matoya |
Okay, 200 gil each for the return of my magic crystal. Just like we agreed.
|
Fighter, Black Mage, & Red Mage |
Score!
|
Thief |
Now for the Light Warrior tax. As per your contracts, all of you owe me 115% of everything you earn.
|
Black Mage |
But.
|
Red Mage |
I sense a con coming on. I can smell it in Thief's brain.
|
Thief |
Of course, it's mathematically impossible for you to pay that much, but the First Bank of Thief is willing to let that slide. For a fee.
|
Black Mage |
But.
|
Thief |
To be determined later.
|
Black Mage |
But.
|
Thief |
And then inflated when no one's looking.
|
Black Mage |
I call for a vote of no confidence!
|
Red Mage |
Can we do that?
|
Thief |
Sure, if it'll make you feel better. But keep in mind that I get a veto.
|
Black Mage |
Ha! There's three of us and one of you. I think we've got that covered, thanks. All those in favor of ousting stupid thief, say "aye"!
|
Fighter |
Aye!
|
Black Mage |
Aye!
|
Red Mage |
Aye!
|
Thief |
Veto, veto, veto. The vote of no confidence is denied.
|
Red Mage |
What!? How?
|
Thief |
I get a veto on every vote. Each of you got a vote, so I vetoed them all.
|
Black Mage |
Er, I don't think that's how a veto works, Thief.
|
Thief |
Let's see what Paragraph 84-B has to say about it.
|
Paragraph 84-B simply says "Yes it is." Black Mage stares at it in disbelief.
|
Black Mage |
That's not fair! This section is labeled "The All-Purpose Prove The Wrong Clause"! Hell, Paragraph 84-A just says "No it isn't."
|
Thief |
That way I've got all my bases covered.
|
Thief |
Pretty smart of me, huh?
|
Black Mage |
Smart like an ass hole.
