Inside the shop

"Th-thank you very much." Aida said as she gave a humble bow and then took the item. "I'm so-sorry, but this is all the business I have for you today. G-Goodbye." He hand gave a little wave then she was off and out the door.

Chris walked into the shop. This being his first time here, he stopped to look at all the upgrades in the shop. He then walked up to the counter. "Hi," he said. "Can I get a Process Upgrade, Level one please?" He then placed 100z on the counter.

"One process upgrade? That will be 100z please. Ah, I see you came prepared." Suitachi takes the zenny data, and pulls a process upgrade from a drawer below the counter and places it on the counter. "Have a good day!"

Chris Lose: 100z
Chris Gain: Process Upgrade (1)

"Thank you!" Chris said. He then picked up the Process Upgrade and walked out of the store.

Aida slowly returns once more into the shop and approaches the counter. "U-Umm...I kn-know this is going to be a bit strange to ask for so mu-much...but....may I pl-please have t-ten process u-upgrades pl-please."

((200+300+400+500+600+700+800+900+1000+1100 =6500z))

Though she suddenly went to her zenny and began to calculate if she could get anything else. She quickly then said shyly, "U-umm....on second thought....could I also get o-one HP upgrade...a-and another process u-upgrade?"

"Well, that'll come to about, 10,200z. I see you have that much, so here we go!" Suitachi announced, striking his finger in midair, and random disco lights and music turned on.

"Ok, that's done with, enjoy your upgrades and have a nice day," the glasses-man said after the music and lights died down. Aida found herself with a mere 5 zenny, but 11 Process Upgrades and an HP Memory.

Aida LOSE: 10,200z
Aida GET: Hp Memoryx1, Process Upgradex11

Aida wasn't much for strange surprises like that. Disco lights and loud music coming out of nowhere may have made her a bit confused. "U-umm....th-thank you?" She slowly began to walk her way out of the shop though couldn't help but to look at the ceieling wondering where a disco ball could fit.

Leon walked into the shop, and looked over the wares for sale. At least I know what I came here for, or else I might be tempted to go on a spending spree... He walked up to the counter and placed some credits on the counter.

"Howdy. Could I get two HP memories and four Process Upgrades?"

-----------
HPMEM 4+5 = 5500
PU 6-9 = 3000
Total = 8500 (I think)

Jared walked into Suitachi's shop, still wearing his backpack with the server and power supply in it. He also still had the monitor headset glasses on his face, with a wire going from the back of one of the earpieces into said backpack. He walked up to the counter next to another customer. He then withdrew a cred chip and placed it on the counter. "I'd like two process upgrades, as well."

Broadside appeared in his Navi form standing on the PET J.T. was holding, looked up at the Net-Op, and asked "Will this mean further code optimization?"

"Why yes..." Jared nodded. "Yes it will. I've still got to program that new GMO as well."

Broadside nodded, then vanished. The PET's power LED flashed yellow, showing it had switched to stand-by mode.

Jared muttered "I didn't know you were that eager...." as he started working on the GMO while he waited.

((Process Upgrade 13 and 14 = 2700 Zenny))

((Augh, Pally, Zenny out of tabs. ;~; ))

Suitachi turned to the two customers with a whistle and a minor glasses adjustment while commenting, "Well, I do believe that those are the right amounts. Let me ring that up for you." And so the shopkee went to work, deducting zenny there, pulling out upgrades here, and neatly packaging them and handing the requested upgrades the their respective buyers.

"Have a nice day," the glasses-man remarked, waving idly.

Leon LOSE: 8500z. GET: HPMemoryx2, Process Upgradex4.
Jared LOSE: 2700z. GET: Process Upgradex2.

"My turn! My turn! Who goes before me will feel the burn!" shouted Na'im as he entered the shop after Jared, panting heavily after he had stopped.

"You're so bad at this," complained Djinni from her position in the PET, "Can't you try to take a sport or something? And be a man?"

"It's... Not as... Easy... As it... Seems..." stumbled the words from Na'im's mouth through the panting and walked over to the counter to grab Suitachi's attention while he was around. "One NaviCust... Expanion, please. And a Signature... Edit for full, please..." he said, took his PET off of his back and into his hands. "Djinni, we'll need 3080 zenny for this purchase," he said to his Navi who gave him a thumbs up from her little screen.

Rummaging around the files and websites, she accessed Na'im's bank account and deposited 3080 zenny to a chip Na'im had inserted into the PET before giving the command.

Taking the, now filled with money, chip out, Na'im handed it over to Suitachi over the counter and said, "This ought to do it."

((2500 + 620 = 3120))

Spinning around in his chair, Suitachi remarked, "Two Upgrades coming right up!" Then, using some conveyor belt-like mechanism, slid to the back of the store, picking up the upgrades, and rolling back to the counter, placing the parts on the counter. The glasses-man quickly filled in the register and nodded to Na'im.

"Have a nice day," the shopkeep said, adjusting his glasses.

Na'im LOSE: 3120z
Na'im GET: Navicust Expansion, Signature Edit.

Leon picked up his items and stepped back from the counter. "Thanks."

He set about the task of installing the upgrades as he walked out of the shop, paying little attention to where he was walking, and bumping into random people on his way to the platform back to Electown.

Chris sauntered into the Shop, noting the extraordinary lack of people inside. Without missing a beat, he walked to the counter and said, "I'd like to get a second Speed Upgrade, and... this would be my fourth HP Memory. Should come up to 12500z, right?" He withdrew a zenny card from his PET and waited.

"That would be correct," Suitachi chirped happily, a fluffy Santa hat on for whatever reason. He spun into the back, then after a few seconds of what sounded like human screams and loud pieces of metal crashing together, he popped right back out none the worse for wear, two programs in hand. "Here you go, have a great day!" he said to the bewildered Chris, taking the Zenny card and shoving the two chips in his hand.

"Erm, thanks," Chris said, shuffling out the door. Once outside, he happily installed both programs and was on his merry way home.

Getting off the metro, Shin came back to Scilabs, he had been there x days ago but he needed upgrades, and fast.

"Suitachi, how are you?" the self-proclaimed ace greeted, walking up to the counter.

"I would like 5 Process Upgrades please. 14 through 18, so that makes... 8000 zenny," Shin counted, laying the amount out.

((1400 + 1500 + 1600 +1700 + 1800 = 8000z))

"I'm great." Replied the shopkeep to the shopper.

"Well, that's a pretty decent sum you've got there. Makes you wonder where a pretty faced boy like you could be getting so much cash." He said with sarcastic grin, as he completed the transaction.

"Thanks, come back soon."

SHIN -8000z +5 Process Upgrades

"T-thanks Suitachi," Shin said, wondering if the shopkeeper was too much in a daze to recognize him. Shrugging, the ace went off to his house, installing the upgrades one by one.

The bell jangled as Antoinette slipped inside, completely defeating her plan of getting in, making her purchase, and getting out again without being observed by anyone other than the shopkeeper. For years, she had shopped here for Beatnik's various upgrades — back when she was in the employ of the NetMafia. She wasn't exactly sure of the storekeeper's political affiliations, but she doubted that she would be received well if she was recognized as an ex-Maf.

But Antoinette was different now. Back in her Past Life, as Beatnik had grown annoyingly fond of referring to it as, Toni had been a...significantly different person than she was now. The expulsion from the NetMafia had changed her, both mentally and physically.

Toni edged up to the counter. "Process Upgrade," she said quietly, as was her style. She clacked her Zenny card down on the glass. "First level. One hundred zenny."

[Process Upgrade #1: 100z.]
