He smiled back to her charmingly. "Well, we'll start with simple pick pocketing," he said with a nod. "Don't worry, if you get caught, I'll be there to back you up and bail you out, I promise," he swore to her. The last thing he needed was one of these kids getting caught.

Cheater walked down the stairs, having unpacked everything and gotten to know her surroundings. Now, she was ready to work.
"Excuse me... when do I start work... and what am I doing exactly?"

She raised her eyebrows in surprise.
Stealing?
But she said nothing. "Nice to meetcha Slick, I'm Cheater."

"Well you put it like that of course it's going to sound like a bad thing. It's not stealing... it's pick pocketing, it's all in the pockets you pick. Think of us as... balancing out the powers. Taking from those who have to much and giving to those who don't have enough... namely, people like you," he said to the girls, smiling all the while as usual. "In a sense, we're just putting things the way their supposed to be."

She watched the two with a slightly confused expression. Stealing was wrong, that was a given, but... people had so much of it sometimes...

"They wouldn't have to," he said with a smile. "This for two reasons, if I had all the money, it wouldn't be mine... what would I do with it all? I'd split it amungst my friends, and workers, as yourselves, just like I already do," he said. "And reason two, I don't have all the money, so even if I did... it technically wouldn't be mine if I shared it with others, would it?" He guessed that wasn't the answer she was expecting.

"Where do you think we should start?" he asked them curiously. After all, they were the ones working, he was the one watching them... it was really their decision.

((New Day))
"NICK." Cheater half yelled, and half screamed, looking around for her "boss". She was angry. No, beyond angry, and she wanted to quit this job. Sure, she made more money than if she was both a newsie and a Lombardi's waitress, but stealing wasn't something she wanted to do.

Nick came down the stairs wondering what all the screaming was about. "Yes?" he asked with an innocent smile to her. Looking as though nothing were wrong, and there were no problems.

Her eyes narrowed as he smiled at her. She wanted to slap him... or something along the lines of that, but wanted to remain calm.
"WHATTHEHELLDOYOUTHINKYOU'REDOING?!" She screamed, stomping her foot. She was, of course, reffering to the friend of Ace's that they had "broken".
Ah yes, that was remaining calm.

Nick looked at her just slightly shocked more so... confused at what was going on. "What do you mean...?" he said looking around him. He didn't see anything wrong with what he was doing at the current time, and... frankly had no idea what she was talking about.
