Gilbert Skolnick
Character
Gilbert Skolnick, sole employee and owner of Junk and Disorderly was listening to a holocall, his face scrunched with concern behind his glasses. He ran a hand through his unruly hair as he listened, before bringing a hand to his face to bite his thumb, a nervous habit he indulged in without realizing.
"You want me to build what?"
He interrupted finally.
"I mean.. Are you sure you don't want another first aid droid? Or a clever little surveillance one? Or I could build some more cyborg bodies, or AI ones? You sure you don't want any of that? Have I told you about the Beverage Buddy? It's already in production and on shelves, but there are still some kinks in Version One, and I'm sure with your backing and some tweaks I could fix them."
He offered desperately. It wasn't as if he didn't know who's money he was living off of, or what they did for a living, but he hadn't made anything quite so.. Well.. Terrible before, and wasn't sure if he was entirely comfortable with it.
Not that he really had much choice. He was utterly terrified of the Twi'lek. Too scared to even think about how pretty she was, which was saying rather a lot, since she was just about the only attractive female to come near or converse with him on a regular basis. This was probably why people didn't work with criminal syndicates, but oh the money had been good!
And all right, maybe he'd had a few wilds thoughts of himself as an outlaw and how good that would sound when a certain kind of woman asked him what he did for a living in bars. Not that he went to bars. Or that any kind of women spoke to him, but if he had and they did, it would have been pretty impressive.
