“Now I’ve been in this gig for a long time kid. You meet terrible people who do terrible things and have to call them your customers, and that’s just how it is. Once you start selling to the streets you become part of streets, don’t you forget that. If you sells to scum you become scum so listen to me kid. Sell to the people who have nothing to gain. Sell to the people who have lost. Sell to the people who can’t feel but have feelings. People are cruel and greedy and will use your art to manipulate. Don’t sell to them. Now, hear me kid, you need to know who’s a good customer. You can tell someone’s never tried this before in they come in for happy. That’s easy. There coming in for happiness cause everyone in this world is so caught up in how unhappy they are they forget that they can make themselves happy. But boss anyone who’s ever tried happy will tell you it can fill that hole for a bit, but it’ll leave you deeper than before. You have to limit those people. Others will come to you wanting it to fix their problem. You wouldn’t believe the bumber or anger heads coming in looking for a way to get calm. I ain’t gonna be their substitute for learning how to have self control. And you have other standards like focus who all come in looking for something. But the real oddball customers who you need to keep you grounded are the ones who arent looking for anything. The ones who want sad, fear, embarrassed just to get a glimpse of what they had. To remember. Now kid, those are the customers you want. The ones who get them for themselves and keep coming back. The ones who can take the emotions you give them and make them something else entirely. That’s what you want kid, they’re who keep you sane through this all. But you already knew what didn’t you? Anyway, you wanted numb right?”
