Dan was taken aback slightly at the look in Lilian's face as she reacted to a certain word he had said. Few would ever actually look him in the eye like that, especially over something so odd. This woman had some serious determination, the kind that brought a smirk of intrigue to his face. "Relax, I said you were cuter than a gaki. Assuming they exist, that is." He caught his chin in his hand as he slumped down to think on the matter for a second. "Wouldn't be surprised at this point." After that small tangent, he turns back up to face his new hire. "Huh. Never actually discussed payment with my maids before. A week ago, I didn't have any that could spend it." His face scrunches in thought for a bit before unraveling into a pleased look. "Alright, first month's free. After that, you'll be earning one bullet a day. Since there are no settlements nearby, I'll hold onto them and you can collect to go shopping whenever you like. How's that sound?" He extends his hand with the offer, giving her the chance to shake on it.
