“Damn that’s lucky” he remarked thinking about that “must have been nice” he added thinking about it all. He had examined her words, tones and body movements as she spoke seeing she was at least mostly truthful but he wouldn’t push for more as he knew what that was like. He shrugged “as long as these two get a good meal and rest that’s what matters” he remarked before hearing her next words “sure. Want us to do anything until then?” He questioned raising a brow as he looked at her awaiting an answer

The Witch seemed to ponder for a moment, scratching her chin with the claws of her gloves. She didn't expect Erik to accept so quickly, so wholeheartedly the job. If it was all to help his mates, it felt like he had his heart in the right place, even if his hands might've been a bit better off of everyone's pockets. She truly hoped she could take them off of that life, but she also knew that old habits die hard.
Perhaps she could throw a testing quest to them...
"Have you gentleman already performed at a gala?"
And there it was, once again. That smile, with a mischievous twinkle to it.

Erik raised a brow looking surprised and confused at such a question “no not really. That’s for those high class people and haughty entertainers typically. They don’t usually allow street rats in” he chuckled a bit. “I’m afraid if we tried it would take them but a glance to kick us right back out” he remarked “why do you ask?” He questioned after a moment looking at the smile of hers. It was hard to tell what she was thinking but he was intrigued in all honesty

The feeling of distrust among the commonpeople and nobility was still very much alive, it would seem. Nobody seemed to like or trust the nobility, and such feeling was very much grounded. She didn't trust them either...
But could she trust Erik?
"If I could put you guys into a gala to perform, would you want it? You could make some big bucks in it, you know, as long as you keep yourselves away from trouble..."
But of course, not all was just what it looked like...
"It's a couple days from today. I could use a few extra eyes there..."
For whatever were her intentions and goals, she could always make use of a few extra eyes... And as far as he could see, she was capable of keeping her end of the bargain.

“As long as we aren’t a scapegoat or bait for something then sure. You get my men out of there with no harm and no trouble and we can get it done though I’m sure this is more than a gig” he replied “I’d like to know more, at least who our eyes should be on and such. Lots of fancy arse holes at those things looking pompous. Knowing what to look for would be quite helpful I believe” he replied simply looking her over. Blind faith wasn’t really his style

"I can promise you the idea is not to use you as bait or scapegoat in any way. What I can't promise is that you won't be harmed, as that's something I can't even avoid myself. Occupational hazard, you might call it."
At least she was being dead honest about it, which was not common on their field.
"I'm sure you'll understand, but I'll disclose the details once you agree on the job. Sufice to say my friend is someone who has lots of enemies - particularly because he has a lot of money. Such job comes with its risks and rewards. We'll be there to keep an eye on his enemies, so it's not a job without the potential to get hurt. Of course I'll do everything in my power to avoid it, protect you and mitigate the damage of the aftermath, but that's all I can do. I'm sure you're familiar with the idea of risking your lives for your livelihood - you do it everyday you set your little stage on the streets, and without nearly as much guaranties as you have from me. So... What do you say to me?"
There was no denying the Witch could be enthralling and weave her words on her behalf, but she was also not the best liar ever. All she said seemed to be true.

Erik listened as he thought about it all for a good while before nodding and holding out a hand. "we have ourselves a deal then I suppose" he nodded with a grin as the other two nodded in agreement behind erik seeming to like the plan as well. It was a bit better than their current life after all and that was quite a big difference if they could eat like this more
