Brains of a monkey for a pack of cigarettes?

[Okay. He hadn't actually gotten as far to see the trade sheet.]

[hydralize]

You're gonna end up paying for most things like that. Sacrificing animal parts to them is pretty standard.

[fortuneforyourdisaster]

[And messy.]

Do I dare ask what happens to the animal parts after?

[hydralize]

Don't know, don't care.

[fortuneforyourdisaster]

Fair. And I'll pay you back for this [the cigarette] once I get a better lay of the land.

[hydralize]

Ah . . . Thanks.

[fortuneforyourdisaster]

Surprised?

[hydralize]

A little.

[fortuneforyourdisaster]

Now why is that?

[hydralize]

Most people don't worry about repaying one cigarette.

[fortuneforyourdisaster]

Most people don't have to dig brain matter out of a monkey's skull to get them either.

[hydralize]

That's true.

[fortuneforyourdisaster]

How did you go about adjusting to this place?

[hydralize]

I have my people here. That's all I need to give myself a reason to keep going. . . . That, and it manages to be less of a shithole than the last place I was.

[fortuneforyourdisaster]

Your home sounds quite charming. But I'll keep the reasoning in mind.
