>"Oh, uh, sorry about that..?" Huh. You didn't expect Mr. Foster to actually like you. Well, when a man thinks about inviting you and your best friend to a bit of good old ULTRAVIOLENCE, that means you're all friends, right?
Right?
"It's no big deal. The world certainly needs more of you blokes of your talents than less." You crack a grin at that. It feels good getting some credit.
Mr. Foster takes a sharp inhale on his cigarette through his gas mask filter. His stupid helium-high voice drops a little low. "Don't that stuck in your mindset. And don't blow your load, so to speak, on punishing the next buggerer, alright? Make it worth all our whiles when we get our mitts on him."
"Mmmhm." Bust his lip, don't bust his skull, sure.
Mr. Foster jabs at the air in front of him with his fag. "Nobody likes a showoff. It's unprofessional. Follow my orders and don't. Make. Waves. Or next time I really am going to get mad."
"Mmh—"
"I'll be taking it out of your paycheck, is what I mean."
Darn it, he's got you there.
"Yeah, yeah, Foster. I got it." You would be willing and it would be easy, standing over the hypothetical guy when he's down on the floor, but you just shut up and nod, knowing Mr. Foster's the guy who's paying you at the end of the day. You'll play nice.
You know, this banker ain't so bad. He isn't screaming mad in your face like some of the neurotic powertripping heads of staff you once worked under. (Thankfully, those kind of guys do tend to disappear in the station corridors, somewhere, ehehe.)

You look over to see Garcian and Mr. Roster still looking over the railing as you check on him.
You use the moment to take a long drag on your cigarette. Mr. Foster's threat seems oddly half-hearted to you, mostly because this goofy moneybags fellow seems about as physically dangerous to you as a newly hatched Magikarp without bones on a hot sidewalk. Unless he's got something up his sleeves, of course. Every skeevy guy like him (including you) has to have a backup to be as skeevy as he is in a world like this.
You turn the conversation to different matters...
