"How much more?" He dreaded the answer. He'd miscalculated on the stove and had purchased it two days before, using all but a couple of dollars from what Mac had given him.

Jones shrugged. "Fifty."

"Well, I meant total, but I can always be flexible," Jones said with a smirk.

Munkus paled again. "Total's fine. I...we..we haven't the money at the moment. I can get it, but I just need a short extension."

Jones gave him a rather unimpressed look. "I hardly care about your concerns. Your monthly payment is due. I expect it by the end of today. I can hardly make exceptions for anycat, or you'll all be clamoring for extensions."

"Tomorrow, sir? The bank's closed already for today."

Jones arched a brow at that. "Well, that's hardly my fault either. Now, if you're going to be like that, run along and find me my money rather than taking that tone with me."

Munkustrap's ears flickered back. "Sir, I can't get the money today."

Jones' eyes narrowed. "Then you sure as hell better have it to me tomorrow by the time this place opens or I will send enforcers out to get it."

Great...just dandy. "Of course sir." He offered a slight bow before quickly exiting before Jones could change his mind.

Jones watched him go, arms crossed across his bulk, considering. He had forgotten that particular cat's last name, and he wondered and his relation to a certain ginger tabby that had had him thrown from his premises once. He wondered if he could use that somehow.
