[Orga only works for some sort of payment. It wasn't out of avarice or self-absorption; it was necessity. Back home, Tekkadan had been a fledgling mercenary company, torn from the hands of the men who had abused them throughout their childhood. As much as he thought Kudelia's quest for Martian independence was noble, he'd also been careful to negotiate a fair rate - and make sure that all of the spoils of war, ships and mobile suits, and then the renown with the economic blocs all fell to them, where they were deserved.
In the end, it'd been a very lucrative job, albeit one that'd cost them quite a lot in life and materiel. But that's just how things are.
So, no, he's not really expecting to do all of this work for free, especially since it takes him away from Tekkadan and everything important to him for so long.]
Shocking to me it's not a bit more of a pressing issue around here. The rest of the coven a bunch'a philanthropists?
[He's mostly being sardonic. It's not really a good thing to ask, given their small amount of leverage with the entities that brought them here and told them what to do. In the end, it all just frustrates him.
He sighs through their mental link.]
I'll be sure to formulate an itemized list by the next time they're actually available, then.
Think we even have much room to bargain, though? Seems to me like we're kind of at their mercy, considering we're stuck here without their help.
