Would you believe me if I told you I was joking?

"I the undersigned will freely deliver a non violent method of removing the make up from Prefects face upon reciept of any sharp objects within The Factories current limited inventory."

Flat ended screwdrivers my friend, they can be sharpened, and if you push hard enough they'd probably fulfill your needs, but they aren't in and of themselves sharp.

The Contract stands. No freebies.

TASTE MY LEGAL LOOPHOLE CLOWN BOY!

So in actuality you're not objecting to the deal that has already gone through, but rather simply threatening me. Kill me if you must, but never accuse me of voiding my own contract!

Let me tell you something about how I work Joker. I'm not some two bit corner store sweetheart you can muscle in on for protection money. Nor am I some hard ass Mafioso who'll give his friends better deals and reject his enemies. You had something I wanted, I had something you wanted, we made a deal.

I'm not here to hand out freebies to the nicest or the smartest or the freakiest or the strongest, or even the most deranged. I'm not here to be dragged down, as others might be, by the risks of selling weapons to murderers, or drugs to junkies, or anything to the people who hate me. I'm not here to make deals based on how much I like you or how likely you are to murder me.

I'm in it for the purity of profit. So If you there's something you want stop trying to scare it out of me and make me a damn offer.

I can't believe I'm about to say this, but...

... It's not about the money. Not in any way you're able to understand. The purity of profit... of trading for something greater than you are first given, disregarding the futile and aging concepts of charity, preference, ethics, legality, respect, stripping them away to the bare bones of commerce.

It's almost spiritual.

Spend long enough at the top and you forget how simple it can all be. So Comrade, Brother, Joker, unless you can offer me something I want, I'm afraid you have nothing else to offer me.

You'll have to enlighten me some time, I'm always fascinated to hear another insight.

I'd hate to set a price you couldn't meet Comrade... but I could really use a pair of gloves, black, leather, definitely NOT fingerless. If you can't get hold of them then we can re-negotiate without too much trouble.

[buywithme.livejournal.com]

... Your philosophy on money is that we should start forest fires?

And while I suppose I could accept purple gloves if you have absolutely no other options, but dying leather is so much effort...

And you want a screw driver in return?

[ooc: incidentally, after writing this, Prefect is going to spend the next three days barricading his door and praying to the almighty dollar that Joker doesn't decide to pay him a visit.]

[Haha! Oh, if Prefect ever ends up in Jokers room again he's going to freak out so badly!]

[buywithme.livejournal.com]

[Haha! Bless! Prefect is very strangely disposed towards Joker, because he scares the living hell out of him, but Prefect refuses, on principal, ever to turn down a sale, so he's just going to keep on interacting with someone who horrifies him indefinitely!]
