Quoted By:

Before this could go any further, you shook your head furiously and rose from your seat. There was something seriously wrong here. Without warning, you went around the room and started confiscating cups and bottles. There were, of course, protests and complaints, but you paid them no mind. For each and every cup you confiscated, you replaced it with a glass of cold water.

You don’t need anyone here waking up with a hangover, or making a huge mistake while under the effects of…whatever that was. For the remainder of the movie marathon, the mood in the room was a bit more somber. And an hour or two later, you all decided to call it a night, cleaning up around the sitting room and retiring to your own respective rooms.

—---------

The next morning, your head felt clear again, and you were no longer being accosted by overly indecent thoughts of your teammates. Absently, you wondered if anyone else was experiencing the same thing that you were, but thought it best not to bring it up at all. So long as it didn’t happen again, of course.

—-----

Despite you having to cut the fun short with your chaperone act, the general mood within the mansion seemed to have noticeably improved. People were talking more animatedly and freely. The barriers that separated them before, such as differences in upbringing, former and current allegiances, and methods of operation were swiftly being torn down. Of course, some barriers were a little too big to be brought down in one night.

Louise and Reese still weren’t really talking or looking at each other very much. But you felt like they were spending more time within a far closer proximity than they had before. The Nightguard was no longer hiding from everyone else and shooting dirty glances at the red-eyed receptionist.

When they noticed you, everyone thanked you for putting in the effort to give them a good time. They didn’t seem to care too much that you’d rained on their parade towards the end. Rintrah was especially cheery. His efforts towards finding rare ingredients were being redoubled, and his booming laughter was hearty and strong.

More than anything, though, you were glad to see that Madame Webb was looking better. Her complexion was still a bit pale, and her face a bit gaunt, but there was vigor in her slight movements. Julia was equally relieved and pleased to see her eating again, and she made that clear from the way she was trying to coddle the old woman.

Feeling satisfied, you informed everyone that you were going to spend some time helping Terminal tail his targets. Madame Webb agreed to manage things while you were gone, and after a hearty breakfast and a quick shower, you headed out into the city to meet up with the assassin.

—--------

An hour later, you and Terminal were standing in an alleyway, watching people pass by on the street without noticing either of you.

“You…you want to hire me…?” you said, completely bewildered by this sudden turn of events. “After all that trash talk from before?”

She nodded. “It occurs to me that I’ve been going about this the wrong way, You’ve taught me that. If I cannot convince you to make better use of your abilities, then I will simply pay you to do so. It’s such a simple answer that I regret not having thought of it earlier.” she mused.

“O-okay. What’s the job?” you said, struggling to maintain your composure.

“It’s less of a job, and more of an open contract. If you and your team agree to keep this city safe by disposing of appropriate threats, then I shall make use of my considerable wealth to compensate you.” she explained. “This is, of course, a revision of the deal that you made with Julia.”

She must be talking about Arachne.

“You…want to pay me and my team for swinging around and busting up bad guys.” you said, not phrasing it as a question.

Madame Web raised a shaky hand to stop you before you said anything else. “Whenever you have the time, of course. However, if you ever feel that you would like to make a commitment to my cause, then you would stand to benefit far more from this deal.” she said with a sly grin.

Was she serious right now? You don’t even know what to say.

What WILL you say?

>”This is a lot. Can I think about it and come back to you later?”
>*Shrug* “Why not. I was planning to play both sides anyway. Are you gonna draw up a contract right here and now?”
>”This reeks of desperation. I know I’m a ‘Spider-Totem’ or whatever, but why do you want me to do this so badly?”
>”This wouldn’t have anything to do with the gang war that’s supposed to go down tomorrow, would it?”
>”I assume you’re already familiar with my team and our rules. Do you have any problems with any of that?”
>”Sure. But…I’m gonna need a few more things from you.”(Write-in.)
>”Sorry, but I don’t trust you enough to commit to a deal like that. Thanks for the lore dump, though.”
>"I think we should agree to disagree. So long as we stay out of each other's way, I think we'll get along just fine."
>Write-in.
