He grinned, "Because I didn't have any money!"

"So why didn't you get a job before that?"

[Mags she/they]

Just now, Spark of Hope said:

"So why didn't you get a job before that?"

"Because I was around 8 at the time, and Terjin is lawful enough to have child labor restrictions," Jerehlu continued. "But that's a story for another time."

"Why couldn't you ask your parents for money? Your your grandparents? Or the rich uncle that you only see at the annual family reunion that seems to be a secret billionaire for some reason?"

Dang it.

"Ah. Orphanage? Streets?"

"Yes, it's very tragic and poetic and such. I'm doing fine now though, and I'll be even better off with you're money--no need to worry!" Jerehlu insisted with a chuckle.

"It's not my money. There's still other options though. What did you want the money for to begin with? Just to have it?"

[Mags she/they]

"Yeah, who doesn't want more money?"

[Through the Living Hope]

Just now, J. Magi said:

"Yeah, who doesn't want more money?"

"You couldn't wait, I guess. Did you have any skills? Drawing fast? Music? Close-up magic?"

Just now, Spark of Hope said:

"You couldn't wait, I guess. Did you have any skills? Drawing fast? Music? Close-up magic?"

Just now, Spark of Hope said:

"Other than that?"

"Perhaps, but this discussion has derailed and I have no reason to share it with you," Jerehlu said waving absently.

"What we really need to discuss are terms of surrender; you and you're fellow job-seekers have been captured, yes? But I am a very good man and so I would rather not leave you penny-less on the side of the round."

"And who is that?" He glanced at the tents and wagons. "Are they still asleep? That'd be a surprise considering all the racket we've made."
