    You reach into your satchel and answer the mobile telephone. It is one of the imps you spoke to on the beanstalk, he's wondering 'if you have any better opportunities' for them as they 'are bored'.

    The ninja is approaching your general direction, looking around, sword held high.

      Take off cloak and ask ninja if he would like to hire an IMP army to clense the world of such annoyances as police and trolls.

        You remove the cloak - startling the ninja, who stares at you blankly.
        You keep the imps on the phone while you negotiate a deal with the ninja for 50 imps to assist with general mayhem and revenge related activities, the ninja agrees in principle, and would like to interview the imps immediately, given the present situation.

        The imps await your reply.

        Several hover-tanks and armoured hover-troop carriers appear in the distance to the south.

        A crow circles above.

            Pass phone to ninja so he can phone interview the imps and chat up secretary while you wait.

              You hand the phone to the ninja and they discuss terms, JD etc. You approach the secretary and start chatting to her. She continues filing her nails, and replies 'um, do you have an appointment to see anyone here in particular?'.

              The ninja hands you the phone and thanks you, then runs south towards the growing military presence.

              The secretary looks up at you. 'Hmm?' she says.

                "I was here to discuss a business relationship with the Managing Director, however that can wait for now. What would you like for lunch? Krug and Beluga?"

                  You say "I was here to discuss a business relationship with the Managing Director, however that can wait for now. What would you like for lunch? Krug and Beluga?".

                  The secretary smiles at you, and says 'do you have an appointment to see the MD?', she writes a phone number on a post-it note, and hands it to you.
                  'Because if you don't, I may have to call security'.

                  The secretary continues to file and polish her nails.

                  Heavy gunfire, mortar rounds and screaming can be heard from the South. A soldier flies through the air, smashes through a window in the foyer, and lands at your feet, muttering something about 'imps' with his last breath.

                      1 mont blanc fountain pen
                      1 signed contract for 50% of fat man's profits
                      1 dodgy contract (inside IR35, agency rules opt-out)
