>H, Y, greet the F-Company food critic
"And that's when I told her 'pow, right in the kisser'!" The actor leans in his chair with a cocky, self assured smile spreading ear to ear. The food critic can hardly hold in her giggles.
"Well, you're mighty charming. You're that Hirose fellow, right? The one who did all of those films for A and G-Corp?" She leans closer, trying to get a better read on the man.
"Yep! Pretty great, wasn't it?"
"Oh, shut up." Yovani puts out a cigarette into a nearby ashtray. "Your first year of acting was the only good one and you dropped off hard."
"Oh yeah? Why should I listen to the defective who can't even make a good film without copying someone else?" He squints at the director. "Kelp Haunted, yeah, totally not ripping something off."
"IT'S NOT MY FAULT OUR FILMS ARE SIMILAR! His film is just as good, I promise you." The android huffs, crossing his arm. "A-Company told me it was a great film. Their call a few days ago was very good for the ego."
"Gentlemen, gentlemen, while I do love seeing you two fight like starving Heartrippers..." The lady coughs to get the two's attention. "Perhaps you should calm down? You're going to interrupt the R-Corp's show."
"Sorry." "Sorry!" The two huss up at the girl's command. Yeesh, you expected a bit more backbone, but what can you expect outta film people? At least they're keeping her entertained while you bid your time.
You overhear a bit of the show the Rangers are putting on.
<span class="mu-g">"So, we were going to get groceries, but they said that MegaMart left. So we went back home!"</span>
<span class="mu-s">"You dolt! The sign said TO the left! We drove two hours to get there, for god sake!"</span>
<span class="mu-r">"With how shitty MegaMart is? Can't blame her for changing her mind."</span>
<span class="mu-b">"Ha. Like her dumpster fire of a house is any better."</span>
<span class="mu-g">"Oh, a house is a house. It's no biggie, I can fix it. That face that only a mother can love?</span>
<span class="mu-g">"Mmh, not so sure."</span>
A few chuckles and giggles echo through the crowd of bored employees.
>Detective Blueblood/Blueflesh, don't waste much of it
You decide to compromise by doing half and half of each, resulting in only one total unit of material being expended.
Employee D pours the half and half mixed bucket into the DETECTIVE's greedy maw. After the bucket is emptied out, he leaves without really saying anything. Efficient if nothing else. You do wish he took the bucket with him, at least.
The DETECTIVE starts back up once it chews on the delicious meal you gave it. If the thing had eyes, you would see them lighting up like fireworks. "ANALYZING...ANALYZING!"
"HAVE YOU EVER BEEN BORED OR DISGUSTED OF A SHOW YOU SEE ON TV? REMEMBER, YOU CAN ALWAYS CHANGE THE CHANNEL. YOU DON'T HAVE TO WATCH TV."
"YOUR EYES SHOULD NOT BE DISGRACED BY THE DEGENERATE'S LENS OF HUMANITY. BUT IT CAN BE SO MUCH EASIER TO LEAN BACK AND WATCH THE CAR CRASH. IT IS UP TO YOU TO GET UP."
"ENTERING COOLDOWN. AVAILABLE NEXT HOUR."
