Ashton seems to stare Barcus down for a long minute, listening. There are gears turning and their eyes narrow for a moment before sighing.
"Underdark's dangerous, I'm gonna guess you know of a path down?" Stuffing a bit of bread into their mouth them chew before washing it down with more ale. "Not gonna expect you t'trust me so soon but I'm pretty good at keeping secrets so there's that, and don't worry about it. I get what you mean. Alotta people are assholes and only in it for the money or for some other stupid reason. Don't get me wrong, I'm here for the money but also just because I'm not great at sitting still."
Too much chaotic energy, it's hard to sit still some times.
"I'll trust your word for it, but the minute shit turns sideways and I think you might be trying to trick me...it's off. And if you decide you don' trust me you have every right to call off the job." He amends at the end. "I'd just ask for at least half of whatever the pay is. Basically don't fuck me over and I won't fuck you over."
