[ It's more-so he's too stuffy to come up with a personalized username... He's a very boring adult. ]
Pleased to speak with you. I'll get right to the point so I don't take up too much of your time. I have a business proposition for you. I'm a member of a theatre company. A few of our other members along with our manager are here in Avalon. I understand she'd like to get us back to performing, but as you can imagine, no longer having our own theatre house to perform in makes things difficult. We'd like to make use of your location if the set-up is satisfactory to what we need.
That'd be alright with me. I'll let the manager know about our meeting and get back to you for when we'd be able to discuss this further in person.
There's one thing I'd like to ask you about personally. I'm assuming that with you being the owner of this venue, you have a say in how to distribute profits, right?
[That's a pretty normal question, but it does make Rei wonder what position this guy holds. He said he's just a member... so is he trying to get ahead of the manager, or is he just in charge of the purse strings?]
That's right. You hoping for something in particular?
[ He's not called a money-grubbing Yakuza for nothing. ]
We can obviously discuss that arrangement after we've talked in person and have settled on the deal properly
But I have to tell you, a straight 50-50 won't cut it. We're not spring chickens. I'm also going to want sole responsibility on budgeting and funds within our group and money coming in from performances will be overlooked with me as well.
Not spring chickens! If I didn't know better, I'd say you sound suspicious of me.
[(Rei laughs at his own joke.)]
Don't worry. But all I know about your position in your company is that you're not the manager, so I'm not about to promise anything right here. Surely you understand.
I don't know anything about you aside from your name and your ownership of this business. There's nothing for me to be suspicious of. I'm just very strict with how our company manages its budget.
I do all of our accounting which has been entrusted to me by our manager. Please keep this in mind in advance.
[ More like he's a natural penny-pincher and no one has the power to stop him because he's THAT HARD-HEADED about not wanting to spend money. ]
Hahaha. Duly noted. Then, I'll look forward to meeting you in person.
[Sure was nice of him to give advance warning about his aggression lmao!! But, if they're as good a performing cast as this guy clearly thinks... Rei can play nice.

I'm sure we can arrange something.
[ The Roost hasn't actually seen any actors yet-- if you don't count Sasara. This could be worthwhile if they're good. ]
Pick a time to come on by. Bring that manager of yours, too.
I'll give you a tour, see what you think and we can go from there. Deal?
