* Sorry, I've got orders.
* Sorry, I've got orders.
* You know, you're so persistent, this might actually work.
* You know, you're so persistent, this might actually work.
 
* I'll take that thank you remember to steer clear of Neon security they're up to no good
* what no that's not true
* sure in the long term but I won't survive a month if the local Street rats rob me blind
* I haven't agreed to anything yet
* yeah I hope so
* haven't heard that one before but I suppose I can't blame you for saying so
* someone do something
* I don't see how
* you know how it is
* I'm the one you've got to deal with like it or not
* what do you think you're doing
* too bad
* Commerce is but not the people running the stores
* we are replaceable
* if I don't pay Tesla I might lose my inventory
* and if I lose my inventory I'll lose my store
* what are you doing
* annoying
* since then has the right thing ever mattered in neon
* wise as well
* if she was still alive she would have told me to move my shop and cease pain these exorbitant fees
* it is not a great deal of Leverage mind you but with all of us working together it's maybe enough
* it starts and ends with Bayou and Dexler works for him
* thank you for noticing that
* I'd like to keep this civil
* if I have to I will but they have to understand I could lose my business if I don't pay Dexler fees
* sorry I'm afraid we don't provide lines of credit
* however if you're willing to look around I'm sure you'll find something in your price range
* you can't stand up to Neon security on an empty stomach
* you think I'm a pushover no
* something tells me this was cooked up by oven Dexler himself
* nice words but they don't change anything
* I really doubt it
* so you really believe the Merchant's Alliance can stand up to Dexler
* maybe I shouldn't be so quick to dismiss it but what power do we really have
* if I don't pay Tesla he'll make sure every gang in the city takes a piece of my stock
* I'd like to think so
* really I didn't know that but I suppose they used to treat me with respect until I started paying the protection
* thanks for stopping by so really now
* I don't have a choice here
* if they want to fight Neon security they can but I need to protect my livelihood
* oh yes everything here is new and trendy you should buy it
* I hear you say have a funny fail of showing it
* James just doesn't give me a cold shoulder it's basically Frozen
* my dear mother would have said the same thing
* the fees here are quite expensive and I'm barely making ends meet but I've always been quite stubborn
* no way it's my S if something goes wrong here
* you know what you're wasting my time
* I really hope so
* I don't the man is as corrupt as they come and that's saying something given where we are
* we carry a wide assortment of equipment perfectly suitable for Stellar exploration and extra planetary excursions
* best selection in neon
* you don't scare me
* Rosa said that
* I remember when her and James first started they were very green
* it was a different time
* the way I see it you need what I'm offering more than I need what you're paying
* I don't think so
* you're starting to make a lot of sense
* sure I have everything you need to explore the settled systems
* look I'd like to help but business could always be better
* I'll take that sure
* and going in I expected it to be expensive
* no it's not that simple
* then it seems we are at an impasse
* I really hope so
* anyway I don't want to bore you with the details of my business all day
* you're here to shop yes
* I'm aware of James's objections
* that's partly why I don't go to the meetings
* well maybe she was wrong
* I try to be a good man but in neon good men starve
* oh my God
* oh my God
* you won't find another store like mine on neon
* so please support my business with your patronage
* you won't be disappointed
* hey give that back
* am I forgive me
* I tend to forget how annoying that can be
* I think you may be right
* don't get ahead of yourself
* some on help me
* two if all of us work together maybe we have some leverage
* I think we can work something out
* you know what you might be
* wait no what am I saying
* uh you are a very difficult person
* hey give that back
* I don't see how
* in the long term
* Maybe and if I join forces with some Merchant's Alliance maybe I can survive the short term
* stop trying to confuse me
* I picked up the Habit from my mother
* she was an extraordinary Woman
* made friends instantly wherever she traveled
* I'm just doing my job you know
* I'm sure you're on the up and up
* I doubt more talk is going to change my mind
* Yeah, you're right
* I don't know what I was thinking before
* I'm going to pretend I didn't hear that
* I'm sure we can make a deal
* That's what I'm hoping
* I'm not trying to make your life difficult you know
* The thing is, if you wanted more money I could suddenly charge some sort of fee
* Like this, he could just tax us higher or raise the rent
* Ah, hello, is something you wanted to say?
* Or hey, that isn't yours
* If you don't see what you need, feel free to ask
* Corruption is an institution here
* But what can a single Alliance do to stop what's built into the foundation?
* And why is that?
* I'm starting to think you're right
* James and I have a few ideas about how to make the alliance stronger
* Don't get bent out of shape
* Hello there, let me know if you need anything
* But it's not just him, all of Neon is corrupt
* The only way to survive is to give in to their demands
* You'd think that was the case, but I promise you, I budgeted for everything
* Oh yes, absolutely
* It can be off-putting, I know
* I have a lot of overhead in this place
* And just between you and me, I am up to my eyeballs in debt
* You're wasting my time
* Help, I'm being attacked!
* Maybe we can still work something out
* As soon as Ryujin broke ground on the tower, I knew the city would start swarming with people
* So I went all in
* Don't try that again
* We can, but I still don't see why I should join the Merchant's Alliance when my business is at stake
* There's nothing to talk about
* I've already made myself clear
* You may think so, but I don't
* I don't know, I can be very stubborn
* Don't worry, I'll stop making the payments to Dexler immediately
* Come on in, please have a good look around
* I can see that
* I think we can work something out
* Oven Dexler is head of Neon security, but he is less concerned with crime than he is siphoning money from honest businesses
* Oh yes, everything here is new and trendy
* You should buy it
* I dare say he got it well
* Like I said, if I don't have it, you don't need it
* But I have a lot of other things you need
* It has not always been easy, but I've been at this location for eight years
* And I won't give up, my business is my pride and joy
* I know it is, and my dear mother would be angry with some of the choices I've made
* All right, I'm willing to hear you out
* I'm still listening
* So why don't you help out a poor shopkeeper like myself and buy something?
* You think I'm okay with it?
* I would like nothing more than to run my business free of Dexler's thieving
* I love this business, it's my life
* I can't imagine doing anything else
* This isn't getting us anywhere
* I think no, stop it
* You're trying to confuse me
* I'm glad you understand the position I'm in here
* I don't want to seem like a defeatist, but frankly, it feels like a waste of time
* Maybe so, easy for him to say, he doesn't have my debts
* An artifact? Are you making this up?
* That's mine, give it back!
* All right, you've made your case
* But I don't think it's wise to stop, my debts being what they are
* You aren't wrong
* Dexler is a snake, and I'm already giving Bayu plenty of donations
* Why do I need to pay Dexler too?
* I can see that, hold on
* You're trying to confuse me, aren't you?
* Sorry, but I can't
* You might be right
* Don't mistake being reasonable for being a pushover
* I really doubt it
