“I find you work. I take 15%. You keep breathing. That's the friendship — and my DM queue is open.”

I'm going to tell you the thing other fixers charge extra for, because I need new clients and my Wire tier renews in six days. If you're reading a scrape, fine — tip the mirror. If you're on my broker feed, you already know I post marks before the public docket wakes up.

Players new to the arm think the story is the mark. The story is cash flow. Marks are inventory. You are a line item with a pulse.

I post a ₡8,000 nuisance — skip tracer, drunk syndicate enforcer, guy who stole a corp shuttle to impress someone who didn't care. Gross looks fine on a screamsheet. Gross is a lie with good lighting.

Then the pipe opens

My cut (15%): ₡1,200 — I find you work; I take my fee; I do not apologize for surviving
Your jumps: you didn't walk; Concord did not gift you minutes
Your parking orbit: you didn't sleep in vacuum; the meter did not pause for your feelings
Your licenses: you didn't forge (please don't forge — forged files make my insurance expensive)
Your ship: something always whispers wrong in the engine room after a "clean" job

You come back heroes with ₡400 and a headache. You blame me. I blame your mechanic. Your mechanic blames the arm. The arm blames inflation. Inflation does not buy noodles.

Board shopping (pick two, not five)

Corporate boards — pay better, steal more, NDAs that outlive your marriage
Government dockets — pay worse, judge you in public, excellent for reputation if you like paperwork
BHL — pays medium, tracks your file like a credit score with guns
Sump fixer net — my house; ₡150/month; marks before the spire notices

Switching boards costs ₡100 re-key fee because nothing is free except disappointment.

Still want in? Subscribe to my broker feed. Buy me noodles when you're in Sump-Nine. We'll talk. I'll take 15%. You'll keep breathing. That's the friendship. That's the deal. Yes, I read the comments — especially the ones that call me a parasite. Parasites eat. So do I.
