The man opens his mouth to argue again, but Arcade beats him to it. "Listen. We know we're just wasting your time, and that it's not your job to be a teacher. And probably even that 3000 caps isn't enough to pay you back for making you stand in your doorway for the past five minutes when you didn't want to. We're not trying to mock you or make it seem like we don't respect you. I know how hard to is to live in the wasteland when you have different preferences, and I can't claim to know what you've had to go through to get here."
Jimmy's mouth shuts, and he loses the petulant look.
Arcade takes it as a good sign and continues. "You know how hard it is to find a good person in this messed up world. This guy found one. And wants to keep him. Can you help us? Anything at all, really."
There's a delay, then Jimmy nods. "Give me a minute to put on my face." He slips inside and the door closes behind him. Arcade sighs outward.
