So, Prospero.

How many of you are new around here? And how many of you keep getting lost? You're in luck today, because I have put my particular skills to work for your benefit. With my help, you'll never get lost in an unfamiliar world.

[This smile is less 'friendly' and more 'up to something'. She takes a rolled up piece of paper from off-camera and unrolls it to reveal...a map.]

[But oh no, this is no ordinary map. This map of Prospero is so carefully and expertly drawn as to make the best cartographers weep at how inadequate they are. It is a work of art, everything from the streets to the buildings labeled flawlessly in clear, legible handwriting.]

[It's even signed.]

So. Shall I stop pointing out how obviously you need this so we can start discussing prices?

[hellburner]

You're stupid.

[breatheinthefog]

No matter how perfect you make your map, you're still obviously after money. That's what makes it stupid.

[hellburner]

I'm hurt. Maybe I just did this out of the goodness of my heart and want to be paid back for all I spent on writing materials.

['Maybe'.]

[breatheinthefog]

Why would anybody do that?

[hellburner]

...




Okay, you got me, hell if I know.

[breatheinthefog]

You still haven't found one of those job things, then.

[hellburner]

Nope. I figured I'd just do what I was best at for now and work out the details later.

[breatheinthefog]

Oh. The structure of this place is pointless, isn't it?

[hellburner]

Hm? What do you mean by that?

[breatheinthefog]

How we're expected to act like regular citizens.

[hellburner]

Guess so. I don't really care, it's better than being dead.

[breatheinthefog]

You're another one who's dead.
