As Akhrirar shows up and Acaatha makes her escape, covered by the arrival of a rarely-seen Noghri, the dockmaster takes in the crew. He smiles at Lin and Mala, who feel like they've just barely managed to escape some very, very unfortunate consequences. "Of course we can make accommodation for our best customers. We are happy to extend credit at a very reasonable 20% per week interest rate." He pauses as that sinks in, "But I would be happy to cut that rate by 25%, something for which I'm sure our glorious Hutt leaders will personally strike me for. But for friends, a mere 15% per week rate seems a worthwhile risk to my wellbeing."
To Akhrirar he answers, "We have only established the need for the docking fee of 250 credits up front. Perhaps if your cash flow is constrained, we could refuel and restock your fine vessel -- and repair it perhaps -- on credit?" He scratches at a ear stalk idly. "I could perhaps provide a discount to those services if you agreed to fund them through credit today. At a future time, our available inventory may be pressured by demand, and the costs could go up..."

OOC:
Acaatha -- more from me on the station tonight, need my source material.
