eastern custom had the skeleton withdrawing his limb and dipping to a bow in return. to work in one country and live in another was a breeze for a guy like him, who had his fair share of known shortcuts up that sleeve.
the odd paths of which crossed great distances in a matter of a second.
❝ hey, picked out my best hoodie for the job and everything. ❞ his best slippers too, by the looks of it. ❝ when job description said suit yourself, i thought neck and tie wouldn’t dress well over my rib cage, y’know? but it’s your call, chief. ❞
anyone would have been taken aback by how one such bodyguard hadn’t been fired two quips in, but it looked as though his employer had a funny bone about him just as well. something sans could appreciate in a fellow employer– made the job easier, too.
❝ so, uh, there’s been trouble lately? y’know, for you to hire a bodyguard and all. askin’ mostly to have a scope of what i’ll be dealing with. ❞ or who.
not that it mattered a whole bunch to a guy who could look at someone and tell their kill count, but… that wasn’t exactly common knowledge. common knowledge was how efficiently the skeleton went about his profession, and that was all his clients truly needed to know.
“ i can tell , ” murmurs to some extent , tadano observant to how sans mocks straightening a tie with merely some words . it ‘ s phenomenal how one can appear so reputable yet come off so casual . ( call it a trade secret between the two of them . ) “ if i wasn ‘ t needed for this settlement , i would ‘ ve been in the same hoodie and everything . ”
gaze softens as the skeleton takes a more serious matter to plate , something his employer - the ceo - rolls over like pins in his hand . “ oh yeah , nearly forgot what i hired you for . ” fingers move to smooth back messy locks , bare the brunt of his frustrations on forehead through faint wrinkles . “ i ‘ ve got some disgruntled customers who ‘ ve been a little too attached to social media these past couple of days . thought i could use an extra pair of eyes watchin ‘ out for me , y ‘ know ? ”
car door is shut with care behind him as tadano waves off his driver , stepping closer towards his newest hire with a swish of his tail . fingers gently graze the back of monster ‘ s skull in passing as a fond welcome to his business family . “ we ‘ re due in ten minutes , seventeeth floor . you comin ‘ ? ”
