Pelican Bay, shanghaiing an Italian

[JollyRoger]

Domino shook her head at the question. No sex dungeon, no pirate island or outer planar twilight zone transport to Port Royal. Just a plain, ordinary elevator which would bring them back to the upper deck.

"Hm, how about...no. I pay your checks. I am the captain, therefore you are a sailor. And technically..."
The Captain joyfully answered with an impish grin after the elevator had been set in motion and she had made the false impression that she was thinking about not calling Roni sailor Roni.

Sailor Roni, that had a nice sound. Manly like a steep wind but still feminine to the tongue. Pretty neat.
"...we are still on the ship. Ships code of conduct and no grumpy people, remember?"

Finally the elevator stopped, and Domino handed the data pad back to Roni.
"Give in your account details, then I am going to add the number in the missing space. I give you a 3 as a bonus I think. 1 for seriousness, 2 for the approval of the Casino and the 3 for not bending over too much to my demands while I am waving a big check in front of your nose. Because brown nosing bores me too."

As the elevator door opened back up, Mancini looked almost relieved and surprised at the same time. It really was just a generic elevator. Well, that was a pleasant non-surprise. But then Domino opened her mouth and made it clear that she intended to call her sailor still. Her nostrils flared briefly in annoyance as she just bit her tongue. Domino wasn't wrong, she did pay Roni's bills now. All she offered as a report was "Well if you don't want me to be grumpy then not calling me sailor is a good way to prevent that." Roni had a very sarcastic smile on her face.

Then, she was handed the data pad that Domino had been playing with all day, and she looked a little surprised until she explained it. The pleasant surprise the bonus made Roni smile much more genuinely now. "Alright, I can live with this. Is this around what people end up with on your little scoring chart?" asked the Italian. She then started to type in her information so she could get paid and then glanced back to her again. "And don't worry about brown-nosing on my part. I don't do that. At worst I'll shut my mouth if I have nothing good to say. No reason to fake it. I'll be happy to call you an asshole with permission though." Mancini smirked and gave a quick wink to her boss and continued to fill out the information on the data pad.

A knowing smile crept on the face of Domino while she put one hand up beside her face as if she was serving something like the big boy mascot for a little playful drama.
"Sailor or grumpy cat, that´s tough. But if I just make your bonus depend on both, no problem for me in the end."
Money just made the world go round, so or so. She had enough of it, Roni wanted it, so she was pretty confident that she could get away with both.

Then her new employee posed a very interesting question for her, which gave her even pause for a little thought while she lowered her hand again.
"Depends on my mood I guess. There are some things that will always score with me and things that always turn me off. I guess a 3 is pretty good for starters. Although I have to admit that I am relatively new in Japan and have not hired too many people here."

She then turned to the gangway where a sailor girl pulled the red rope barring the entrance away.
"So goodbye for now, Sailor Roni. I have pressing matters do to."
She closed her little explanation, giving Roni a slap on the rear while passing her, sighing shortly because it felt so firm where she had been hit.
"Ah shit, who am I kidding. I am going to take a bubbly bath now and then go sunbathing or something."

[Dubski]

With a sarcastic laugh, that was all the answer that Roni gave to the comment from her employer about controlling her pay for the right to call her what she wanted. But when She mentioned her grading, Roni looked satisfied with herself. She frankly just wanted to see if she was getting cheaped on. "Well, that just means you can't top three. Or I'll be pissed," she smirked as she handed the datapad back, but the tone in her voice made it seem as though she weren't actually entirely kidding.

Then, she bid her goodbye. By calling her sailor again, which immediately soured her all over again, looking annoyed by it. "Yeah, yeah. It's a pleasure doing-"

She stopped talking when Domino groped her ass and whipped around, shooting her a look. She thought about retaliating, but then thought better of it. She would make herself very clear instead. "You know, I was just about to tell you that I didn't mind you too much, Drake." Mancini then raised her eyebrows and waved with a fold of her hand. "Enjoy your girly shit, Drake. I'll be hearing from you," stated the Italian, letting that be her final words to the captain.
