Sadao cringed as Jasper asked for help paying for an extra ticket. He chuckled nervously and rubbed the back of his head with a sheepish smile. "Actually, I was hoping you could cover the tickets. I'm literally dirt broke," he admitted. It was true, he didn't have a single cent to his name. Just a few weeks back he had to leave his apartment due to payment issues, but honestly Sadao is fine with living on the streets for awhile. He did it before he came to the guild so this is nothing, but he didn't dare tell his fellow guild members. He didn't really want to make a big deal of it. Sadao paused for a moment and rubbed his chin as he narrowed his eyes towards the station, trying to form a plan. Soon he spotted what looked like a rich noble and his snobby looking wife, barking orders at his servants as they struggled with a pile of luggage that was taller than Sadao.
After what felt like hours, but in truth was a few seconds, Sadao snapped his fingers and grinned towards Jasper. "Stay here for a sec, I'm about to get us some tickets," he chuckled before quickly walking off towards his target. He cracked his neck and sighed before clearing his throat, but before he could say anything the noble cut him off as he barked even more orders and a few harsh insults towards his servants.
"Oh for gods sake you lazy useless louts! We should have been aboard that train twenty minutes ago, but here we are, fooling around like complete fools!" he snarled towards the servants who cringed and avoided eye contact all the while apologizing and holding their tongues. Sadao let a frown briefly come to his face, already not liking this man. So he was defiantly not about to feel bad about this. Without any words Sadao bumped into the noble hard enough to send him fumbling forward and falling into the large pile of luggage. The mountain of bags and briefcases shook and fell onto the noble. Sadao cringed lightly, but cleared his throat before going to the nobles aid.
"Oh no, I apologize sir! I wasn't paying attention!" he lied as he began to dig the noble from his luggage prison. The noble flailed and cursed as Sadao pulled him free, not noticing his swift hands slide into his pocket and pull out two tickets. As the noble was on his feet and Sadao had slipped the tickets into his pocket without anyone noticing he growled and pointed his finger into Sadaos face.
"You damned fool, how dare you! Do you know who I am!?" he snarled in anger. Sadao shook his head and bowed to apologize.
"I'm truly sorry sir, I didn't mean to. Are you okay, is there any-" he was cut off as the noble held up a hand and gave him a look of disgust.
"I don't care anymore you useless bastard! Just leave before I buy you and everything you own!" he barked before stomping off past Sadao, making sure to give a harsh bump to his shoulder. Sadao gave a cringe and hurried off, giving a few false apologies, but as he was far enough he chuckled and walked back to Jasper. As he approached her he chuckled and held up two tickets with a victorious smile.
"And that is how you get two free tickets on a dirt broke budget," he laughed before handing Jasper her ticket. "First class," he added with pride.
