The "Ranma ½ - Files"...
===== Tendou Nabiki =====

*Name?

Nabiki Tendo. *click*

*Sex?

No thank you. You're not my type. *click*

*Say...what are these *click* sounds?

My tape recorder. You want to hear?

*....Sure.

I'll rewind first....(rewind). Now. *click*

[No thank you. You're not my type.]

Oh my, Mr. interviewer. What a bold statement. You know, there is a law against sexual harassment, isn't there?

*Huh? What?! This is blackmail!!

10,000 yen and the tape is yours.

*What!? This is an outrage!!

If you don't want it....then....

*OK OK! I'll pay!! (rips out 10,000 yen and pays it. Then crushes tape into itty-bitty pieces with heel of foot)

(smirks) Ok. Now, let's get on with the interview. (muffled *click*)

*GRR.. Harumph!! Anyhow...how old are you?

Old enough for you. *click*

*What the...?

You know the drill. 10,000 yen.

*ARRGH!!! (pays 10,000 yen) I've got to watch my questions around you, you know that?!

Yes, I do know that. Do go on, Mr. Interviewer.

*What position are you applying for?

Certified Management Accounting co-ordinator. (muffled *click*)

*What? You mean you don't want to become a wife? Aren't you going to regale me with how good a cook you are, like the three that were in here before you?

*click*

Oh my, Mr. Interviewer. Is that sexual stereotyping I hear? Bad, bad boy!

*(10,000 yen is handed over) How many tape recorders do you have on you, anyhow?!

Care to look? Many, many places.

*I won't answer that.

Smart move. Anyhow...?

*Ahem. Qualifricatitions? I mean....qualifications?

I'm good at numbers. I like money, as you doubtlessly know. I'm resourceful. I'm smart. Do you not think so that I'm quite smart, am I not?

*I won't answer that either. Just go on.

Anyhow, let me at your accounts and I'll find ways to streamline and skim...I mean, trim your budget.

*Too bad I don't have a tape recorder on me.

Always be prepared, Mr. Interviewer. Well?

*I'll send you the sex...I mean, the facts...I mean...the fax in two days. (wipes brow and peers at Nabiki)

Don't worry, I didn't have a tape recorder going. Silly me, eh? Anyhow, I must be going. Good day. (Nabiki leaves.)

*GOD, what a manipulative, money-grubbing.....female that was!! I wish I could....rrrghgh!!! (Nabiki walks back in) Huh? What are you doing back here?

Oh yeah. Forgot to mention that I had bugged your office. For me to get rid of our taped interview, including your last outburst, I'll accept no less than 50,000 yen. In cash.

*(Pays the money without a word.)

Thank--you!! (Nabiki pulls out a bug from the desk and leaves. She tosses a tape over her shoulder and it lands near the interviewer's foot)

*(Looks at it for a second. Then grinds it into powder. Does not say a word for the rest of the day, looking fearfully in nooks and crannies for bugs....)
