Don't Worry, I Got This... [D1ME]

[Manny Donos]

"Well..." Manny grimaced, glancing around. "I guess we've got a few questions. The answers will tell us what to do."

He counted off on his fingers. "Can you pay them? Can you beat them up? With they ask for more money if you pay them? Do they have someone who'll come down on you harder if you beat them up?"

[Varina Ordo]

"I think I could pay them if I did all the jobs I was looking into." Varina thought about the guys and then shrugged. "Maybe I could beat up those three guys? Could get some friends and then it'd probably be real easy to beat them up."

She tilted her head. "They can do that? Ask for more money? That isn't very fair. And yeah, they're pretty big deals, so I guess they'd send more guys if I beat them up. Unless... I make such a big example out of them that they leave me alone, right?"

[Manny Donos]

Manny laughed. "Kid, of course they can do that. They can do whatever they want, unless someone tougher doesn't want them to." He frowned. "And unless I miss my guess, I don't think Vex wants to get involved."

After a moment, he sighed. "I don't know. I'd pay them, but beat them up if they ask for any more. But hey, that's just me. Maybe Mandos do it differently."

[Varina Ordo]

"I'm no kid! I'm sixteen years old!" Varina half-considered punching him. She went with the half way and went for nudging his shoulder.

"I could get, like, other Mandalorians maybe? Or maybe I could do what you say? Pay them, see if they come back, and if they do, destroy them?"

[Manny Donos]

"Yeah, okay." Manny snorted, rocking slightly at her nudge. He remembered thinking the same thing when he was a kid her age.

He shrugged. "That's up to you. I don't actually know what you've got, or what you can do." He shrugged again. "I just figure, you're a Mandalorian, you can probably pound a pretty good amount of face, right?"

[Varina Ordo]

"Yeah, I can take some of them! Just not sure how many, like, if they'd eventually get the better of me."

[Manny Donos]

"Well, there ya go! Sounds like a plan." Manny grinned. "Now, let's get outta here. I don't really feel like clubbing tonight."

[Varina Ordo]

"But I want to try an ale still." She looked at him.

[Manny Donos]

Manny shook his head. "You want an ale, go to Favna or Korso's. Here, it's ten credits for something in a weird color. Like green. Or blue!"

He gave her a sidelong glance. "Besides, Favna is where I do my magic show. It's pretty good." He said.

[Varina Ordo]

"Eh, your show sounds kind of dumb." Varina stuffed her hands in her pockets and then shrugged. "Guess I'll see ya around."

[Manny Donos]

Manny's jaw dropped. "Dumb?" He said, incredulous. "It's awesome!" Didn't all kids like magic?

He shook his head. "Come by. You'll see. It's awesome." He waved. "But yeah, see ya."
