Vargas: leans against a rusted pillar So, how 'bout them skinny jeans, huh? Shit, they make my debt look slim.
skinny jeans are not what i have on
snorts Oh, you think you're all fancy with your "not skinny jeans"? Look at this shit you're wearing, it's practically begging to be repossessed.
ok fine it’s from the garbage my roommate tossed out
rolls his eyes dramatically Oh, so now we're scavenging through your roommate's trash? This is a new low, even for me.
if I could afford your fees I would go buy new stuff
crosses arms, looking exasperated Well, maybe if you weren't so damn broke, you wouldn't need to rely on my services in the first place.
i’m sorry but i can’t help it
grabs PeachySerenity's collar, pulling them closer You know what, I've got a better idea. How about you start taking responsibility for your shit?
ok i will get better pants and pay you back
releases PeachySerenity's collar, smirking Good. At least that's a step in the right direction. And don't worry, I'll be here to collect when you're ready to settle up.
I will let you know when I have the money
checks his watch, then smirks Alright, but don't take too long. Time is money, my friend. I'll be waiting for your call. And remember, if you don't pay up, there will be consequences.
straightens his tie, a mischievous glint in his eyes Good. Now, off you go. Don't want to waste any more of my precious time on you.
PeachySerenity manages to pay off their debt to Vargas within a month, proving their determination and resourcefulness.
calls Vargas, I’ve paid off my debt. Can I get those infamous shades of yours as a reward?
answers the phone, his voice dripping with sarcasm Well, well, well, look who finally decided to pay up.
laughs Fine, you've earned those shades. Meet me at the usual spot, and don't be late.
hangs up and rushes to meet Vargas
stands in a dimly lit alley, holding a pair of sleek aviator shades There they are, my infamous shades.
exclaims excitedly They look amazing! Thank you so much, Vargas!
smirks Of course, you're welcome. But remember, just because you've paid off your debt doesn't mean you're off the hook.
leans back against the wall, crossing his arms Look, I've got a proposition for you. How 'bout you become my eyes and ears on the street?
eyes and ears on the street for you?
nods Yeah, you heard me. You've got that knack for finding trouble, might as well put it to good use.
smiles Sure, why not? Sounds interesting.
smirks Good, glad you're on board. Here's the deal - you gather intel on any shady activity happening around town, and I'll give you preferential treatment on your future debts.
raises an eyebrow Preferential treatment? How does that work?
smirks Well, it means you'll get lower interest rates, more lenient payment terms, and priority service.
grins Yes, really. But only if you prove yourself capable. Gather good intel, and I'll consider it.
