So. Upgrade the medkits that are currently in our stock, but only upgrade half. Same price. For the reasoning that it might piss people off if they didn't know what they got, and... then what happens?
Then they start thinking that the people who got the better kits did something extra to earn them, and they're just not saying anything about it, even though it would help people if they explained...?
Hmmm. So, breaking up relationships of trust and causing problems by fucking up the medkits a little bit.
[ they tilt their head back and forth, back and forth... and then make a little noise. ]
Y'know what? I think that'd do it. Alright, Rupert. Nothing comes free, so you gotta do something for me in exchange. So, tell you what, since you're gonna be doing something with the gift shop, let me have you do a task like an employee.
Monday morning, you know how things change over? I want you to work a shift at the front desk. Get a uniform like the staff's from the closet. Hat included, but it shouldn't have a veil or anything. Stay at the front desk for an hour, answer people's questions about the hotel. Really sell it like you work here.
If you do that, tomorrow, come back to me, and I'll see your deal through.
[he looks surprised, but it doesn't throw him for long.]
I'll come talk to you after tomorrow morning, then! Oh, but - when you say I should pretend to work here, do you mean, like... I'm supposed to pretend to be a new employee that doesn't know any of them, or am I just being myself and pretending I started working here for nebulous reasons?

Maybe, but some people might get actually freaked out if I pretend to not remember them... I don't want to start a whole thing. I'll probably go with the second option.

[he pauses, and then nods.]
That's easy enough. I'm guessing I'll be able to find something in my size?

Shake on it? [ they hold out their hand to shake! ]

By the end of that hour people are going to think something weird happened to make me think I actually work here, don't you worry.

That's what I love to hear. [ hehe ]

...Go with whatever feels right. I'll take either. Maybe do both!
no subject
Both? You mean, in different conversations?
