 "Whatcha thinking' about?" Floyd asked as he sat beside Kankri.

"Is that job still open?" Kankri asked as he massaged his head. He couldn't possibly believe that he would be doing this, but he had no choice. Well, he did have a choice, but he didn't want to disappoint his little brother.

"Yeah. You want it?" Floyd inquired with a surprised tone. He didn't actually believe that Kankri wanted the job. Kankri nodded and wanted to say nothing more on the matter. Floyd just took a napkin and wrote an address down on it.

"This is Cronus Ampora. He's a very good client of mine and I'm sure that he wouldn't mind switching it up a little bit." Floyd laughed as he slid the napkin over to Kankri.

"I don't know." Kankri shrugged. "I wouldn't want to trigger him."

"Let me call him real quick, then." Floyd whipped out his phone. Kankri could hear it ringing and workied about the safety of Floyd's ears, but said nothing on the matter.

"Hey, Cro." Floyd greeted in a strange tone. "I wanted to know if you didn't mind switching it up tonight. I have a friend here that needs the extra cash." A little pause. "He's working a triple shift day every day but today." Pause. "Double today." a slow pause and nothing but white noise. "Brown eyes, black hair, button nose, sharpish jaw." Floyd answered followed by another pause. "Alrighty, Cronus. Just let me know if you want to keep him." Another little pause. "Okay, take care, Cro. Bye." Floyd laughed as he hung up.

"Well?" Kankri asked a little impatient.

"He says that it's fine and to just go over to his house after work today." Floyd smiled.

"Thank you, Floyd." Kankri smiled.

"Hey. It's no problem. It looks like our break is over, though." Floyd stood up with a dopey grin on his face.
