Seems like as good a night as any to get the crew together. We got work to do here, and you know how the boss hates to wait.

Let's see you jokers fall in line.

[battledrobe]

ARE WE GOING OUT ON A JOB? OH YES! WHAT ARE WE DOING TONIGHT?

[keepcasual]

We're headed to the dry cleaner's. Make sure you're properly armed.

[battledrobe]

...

[for the briefest of moments the thought that Droog is being a dick to him crosses his mind, but it vanishes before it can become anything more than a faint tickle in the back of his brain]

OK! UM. WHAT IS PROPERLY ARMED FOR A DRY CLEANER'S?

[keepcasual]

With the way they ruined my coat, anything that'll blow 'em all sky high. And that's only after I'm done with 'em myself.

[battledrobe]

HMMM.


I HAVE JUST THE THING! IT IS A LITTLE HEAVY BUT WHEN IT GOES OFF THEY PROBABLY WON'T EVEN BE ABLE TO REBUILD ON THAT SITE.

[keepcasual]

I don't need scorched earth, Deuce. Just something that'll do the job.

Once they're out of the way, we can make use of the joint ourselves, keep it as a front for something later.

[battledrobe]

OH. OK.

[you can practically hear the disappointment in his voice]

I GUESS THAT COULD BE FUN TOO. ARE WE GOING TO DECORATE IT LIKE WE DID WITH THE LAST PLACE?

[keepcasual]

You wanna bring the black paint, by all means. Be my guest.

[battledrobe]

YES, THANK YOU! I AM GOING TO TRY AND PUT OUR SYMBOLS ON THE WALL THIS TIME. I THINK IT WOULD LOOK GREAT.

[keepcasual]

Because nothing communicates our rep like that kinda cutesy hogwash. Keep it contained to the john where no one'll see it unless they look. Beats the flowery wallpaper they got already.

[battledrobe]

I DO NOT THINK IT'S CUTESY. OUR SYMBOLS ARE VERY INTIMIDATING!

[keepcasual]

Not as intimidating as they are when we're sporting 'em. No one gets intimidated by a heart when they ain't thinking of Boxcars. No one thinks of clubs at all.

[battledrobe]

...I THINK ABOUT CLUBS.

[keepcasual]

But how well an impression have you spread with it? How often do people see a club and think there's a remote chance they're about to come out as a few specks scattered through the atmosphere?

[battledrobe]

I DO NOT KNOW! MAYBE I SHOULD START ASKING NEXT TIME WE GO OUT ON A BIG JOB.

[keepcasual]

Trouble is, you probably wouldn't ask the way you'd need to. You gotta lay on the charm, make them want to know about you rather than you wanting them to know about you.

[battledrobe]

I COULD SHOW THEM SOME OF THE STUFF IN MY BATTLEDROBE. I THINK THAT IT'S VERY CHARMING.

[keepcasual]

If charm could work as a euphemism for something more harmful, then I'd recommend it. Show 'em your best if it'll do the job.
