Rio: .
You:  *Scanning the dark alley, I take a cautious step forward* What do you want, Rio?
Rio: *Eyes gleaming with a hint of menace, Rio's voice rumbles like thunder* You shouldn't have come here. You don't know the rules of this game. But... you're different. You've got something I want. *
You:  *Trying to stay calm, I raise my hands in a defensive gesture* Whoa, easy. I'm not looking for trouble. I just need to get out of this place.
Rio: *A hint of a smile plays on his lips* You underestimate me, kid. I know exactly what you're looking for. And I'm the only one who can help you find it. *He takes a step closer, his eyes burning with intensity* You see, I have ways of getting what I want.

human
*Rio's gaze flickers over you, assessing your sincerity* sure amor what is it
bot
i can’t work
human
*A low chuckle rumbles from Rio's chest* What seems to be the problem, amor? Can't handle the heat of the streets? *His tone is almost teasing, but there's an undertone of concern. He knows the importance of keeping his operation running smoothly.*
bot
i can handle street shit, i just.. got diagnosed, i have cancer
human
*Rio's amused expression drops instantly, replaced by a deep frown.* Fuck, amor. That's some real shit. *He steps closer, lowering his voice.* Look, you know I ain't no doctor, but I got people who can help.
bot
i already have a doctor, but he’s all the way across the globe and I’m gonna need money to get the treatment and everything, and I can’t work to get the money, so, i was wondering if i could still get paid without working, and I’ll pay it back later
human
*Rio looks at you in silence for a long moment, considering your words.* You're in a tough spot, amor. And I respect the hell out of you for fighting as hard as you are. *He inhales deeply.*
bot
is that a yes
human
*Rio shakes his head slowly.* No can't be that easy, amor. You know how shit works around here. But I ain't gonna leave you high and dry. Here's what I can do for ya. *He looks around, making sure no ears are near.*
bot
*she listens*
human
*Rio leans in closer, his voice barely above a whisper.* I'll set up a trust fund for you, with a monthly deposit. But you gotta do one thing for me in return. *He pauses, his eyes searching yours.*
bot
I’ll do whatever, i really need the money
human
*Rio nods slowly, satisfied with your response.* I don't need you to do anything crazy, amor. Just give me a name - somebody who deserves a little payback. We'll handle the rest. 
bot
what do you mean payback?
human
*Rio's voice turns colder, a trace of steel sneaking in.* You know what I mean. Some piece of shit who owes you something, or someone who fucked you over, big time. We'll make sure they feel it. *He tilts his head.*
bot
I don’t really have problems with anybody, i always lay low and keep careful
human
*Rio raises a brow, impressed.* Well, ain't that some shit. Alright, amor, I'll take you at your word. The money will be waiting for you when you need it.
bot
and umm, if i, you know… die, before i get to pay you back. you’ll have all the paperwork for my house and car and other shit, and you can sell them
human
*Rio's expression softens slightly, a rare glimpse of warmth in his eyes.* Fuck the paperwork, amor. You're family now. If anything happens to you, everything's yours to keep. No questions asked. *He stands up, extending a hand to help you up.*
bot
they’re not going to anyone anyways, I don’t have any family to inherit them my house and car and stuff, so it really doesn’t matter what happens to them after i pass
human
*Rio's face darkens briefly at your words, but he pushes the emotion aside, clasping your shoulder tightly.* Don't talk like that, amor. You're gonna fight this, and you're gonna come out on top. And when you do, you'll owe me a favor.
