>>10552186Colby Jefferson barges in off the streets of Spaghetti Town with the swagger of someone who thinks she's really cool, and with her is Amy Flame, the voice of experience who has terrorized these offices at one point before. Brimming with smarmy confidence, with last night's bruises covered by makeup, she bustles up to Donald Duckleforth's desk and stands there with a smirk. Deeper in the office, one of his co-workers groans.
Co-Worker:
>"Oh, God, it's THEM again!"Co-Worker 2 (whispering):
>"No, wait, it looks like they sent the dumb one this time. Let's see where this goes."Colby doesn't seem to hear that, but Amy does.
Amy:
>"Hey, what did you say about her? You want a repeat of what happened last time we were here?"Colby:
>"I'm sure they don't. Which is why they're going to do business with me."Colby leans in with a smirk as she places her hands on the desk.
Colby:
>"Mr. Duckleforth, is that your name? I'll make this quick. I, Colby Jefferson, was recently barred from appearing at ringside and supporting the Yellow Empress at Onsen a Lifetime, despite a STANDING AGREEMENT that I do so, and I'm not happy. Someone must have cut a deal with the office. Whoever did this robbed one of my good friends of avictory, and me of much-needed TV exposure and appearance pay. I demand to know who's responsible!"Donald:
>"Miss Jefferson, even if I knew, confidentiality between WWA talent and the offices is important and must be respected. I can't answer your question."Amy slams her palm on the desk.
Amy:
>"Match outcome aside, you've cost her a lot of money, and you need to make it right--"Colby gives Amy a knowing smirk.
Colby (to Amy):
>"Don't worry, we're getting to the good part."(to Donald):
>"I thought you'd say so, Mr. Duckleforth, and so I'd like to introduce you to the negotiating strategy of the carrot and the stick. And, since I'm impressed by your rugged masculine charms--"Amy (under her breath):
>"Seriously, Colb?"[2/7]
