[u]"Wonder if I could get something like that...Eh, I'm too poor to afford it."[/u]
[i]Irina was poor as hell, really. Yes, I ran a currency system with her, so she has a select amount of money at the moment.[/i]

[i]"Yeah, I rarely give augs for free nowadays." That was a truth, JT only did certain things free. He supplied plastic limbs and new skin for free, but that was all. [/i]
-
[u]"Doubt I could afford it. 'Less you'd trade, but then again I have nothing that would really be of worth."[/u] [i]Irina hated not being able to pay for things, especially things that could save her life. Yes, she had a darksaber and Grant's pistol, which was basically the biggest -blam!- you to anyone with armor, but still.[/i]
-
[i]JT did trades, but it would have to be something he'd get a lot of use out of. And considering his old acquaintances and allies hooked him up, he didn't need much. "Eh, augs aren't for certain people. Some prefer biologic enhancements." [/i]
-
[u]"I guess I'd be more of an augmentation person. If y'know - I could afford them."[/u] [i]Irina chuckled to herself, crossing her arms as she looked at JT with a smirk on her face.[/i] [u]"Biological enhancements, as in...?" [/u]
-
[i]"Extra muscles in the body, denser bones, that sort of thing." JT had dabbled in the arts of bioscience before on some willing test subjects, but he only understood how to do the most basic of things when it came down to it. [/i]
-
[u]"I mean, I could probably put some of that to use. Extra muscles...Would give me more strength when I swung my sword."[/u] [i]Irina smirked at the thought, although she figured she had enough strength to properly use her weaponry. It wasn't all about strength to her, really.[/i]
-
[i]"Yeah, they're useful. Extra muscles in the legs make ya faster, extra muscles in the arms bolster strength, you get the gist." "So, what do you do around this place for fun?"[/i]
-
[u]"Fun? Excuse you. This place is not for...fun."[/u] [i]Irina smirked a little - before actually replying to JT in a less sarcastic manner.[/i] [u]"Honestly, there isn't much to do that's really fun around here. I can't get you drunk, so that's a hopeless cause. I'm genuinely hated wherever I go, and honestly that's understandable. So yeah. You?"[/u]
-
[i]"Oh I'm done here. I have other frontiers to explore, space is my Wild West." [/i]
-
[u]"Hey; I don't blame ya. Then again, I sorta did take Grant's place as Ranger...obviously not through murder. He promoted me...retired recently."[/u]
-
[i]"Really? Good for that dude. I'm just here for my girl and my shop, so once they go or Char agrees to come, I'm dipping."[/i]
-
[u]"Heh. I'd leave if it wasn't for Athena and the NCR, so it looks like we're in a semi-close situation. Those two things...they're the only things that I guess you could say...hold me back. Changed me, even."[/u]
-
[i]"Aye, that's a good thing." JT soon looked down at his right forearm's bottom side and pulled his sleeve to his elbow momentarily, tapping away at it before standing. "Well Irina, I best be off. Good luck with your people issue." That said, the Marshal walked off without another word. [/i]
