"Hmmm~" Loba hummed, a mischievous glint shining in her eyes. "So, you spike the unsuspecting sod's drink, or you do so of your own accord? Down, boy." She pointed her fingers in a gun shape at Lobo, blasting him in the face with water. "I'm wondering..."
"Ack! Itmp goth umph my nohms! Bleetch! Ptooey!"
"He'll be fine. I've subjected him to far worse restraining measures. So... would you be willing to strike a deal with me?"

"They order it straight. None know what the drinks do until they've had a few sips," Astra offered with a grin. "Pleasurably so."

"Hang on, what's this about a deal?!" Pop! Up comes Lobo, instantly sprinting towards his sister and the new broad. "Yes, the bar is named after you, but my name's the one on the deed! I think I'm supposed to handle these!"
"Exactly. I was just calming you down first so you don't go home in a matchbox." Loba loosened the watery restraints she had on Lobo. "So... Astra, while I doubt he'll be willing to let anything he perceives as competition free, now that he's had water shoved down his nose, he might be willing to agree to a compromise."

"I give you an actual Blade of the Nine Realms and 30% of my profits for the month. If this proves fruitful, you might get more. It's money you didn't have to earn," Astra offered.

"Hmm, a real Blade of the Nine Realms does sound nice, but thirty percent..." Lobo began counting on his fingers, a pair of glasses (with no actual glass) made of green wind appearing on his face. "Hmm, do I haggle for more profits, or do I take the real Blade...?"
"Can you imagine how good it'd look on your wall? Or Will's face when he sees it?"
"He can look at it, but he can't fuckin' touch it, he'll just break it, I don't care how much he's been tryin' to hold back his strength lately, he always ends up breakin' something..." Lobo's voice trailed off as he came to a realization. "Motherfucker. Did I just agree to this?"
"Yes. Yes, you did."

Astra offered her hand. "If this goes well I can throw in weapons from my home world of Gith," she noted. "And yes. Yes you did."

"Hmm, weapons or full profits... weapons or full profits, hmm, this is an actual decision to make, unlike most others..."
"Yes, but you like collecting weapons that you never use."
"Shaddup, I use them sometimes! Like at expeditions or demonstrations!" Cough, cough. "Anyways... yeah. I can do that. Better hope those weapons are up to my very high standards. So, do you sign these things in blood or-"

"A simple handshake will do," Astra offered. "I prefer not to make bloodpacts. Have a nasty history of some trying to kill me after making them. Besides why the ourselves to a sheet of paper either?"

"Well, you do hate paperwork."
"I don't hate paperwork, I just hate busy work! Which paperwork just so happens to fall under," Lobo rolled his eyes, muttering something along the likes of the nerve of some people, before turning to face Astra. "Fair enough. Blood pacts get messy, even when I'm the one issuing them-"
"Especially when you're the one issuing them."
"The salted legume gallery is requested to remain silent for at least a few minutes." Lobo extended a hand to Astra. "So, do we have a deal, or are we gonna back out of it?"

Astra smiled and shook the loud one's hand. "We have a deal."

"Excellent! Now, I will expect my cut of the profits to arrive nightly, and that sword had better be there by next Wednesday, otherwise I will show you why even kings fear the Intimidating-"
Flick to the nose via water hand. "You were a soldier, not a member of the Intimidating Finance Department."
"Sssh, you're ruining my intimidation and cool factors!"
"You were ever intimidating or cool?"
Apply ice to the burn.

Astra laughed at the shouty one's orders. "Your cut will come at the end of the month. The sword will be delivered by the next dawn along with a few extra weapons," she replied dryly. She wasn't going to let this squawker give her orders. "I have to set up my shop and check that my supply of specialities haven't spoiled or broken. And that may take a day or two."
