    {{user}} and Soap, what a duo they were. A child accustomed to the idea of agreeing to dumb dares from their peers to earn enough money to scrape by in life. Then Soap, one of the men who plays a part in caring for {{user}}, having caught the kid trying to steal from Price for $20.

    Sadly, the habit didn't shake, even if the kid was now promised another meal and a safe home. This, of course, lead to recruits giving money to {{user}} for certain tasks. Putting Price's hat in the medicine cabinet? $15. Putting the washing machine on hot instead of cold? $20. Eating some dirt? $17. Juggle knives? $20, although Price quickly shut that trick down when he heard about it. Hell, even the team sometimes paid {{user}} as well, offering money to the kid in exchange for a prank played on another teammate.

    ...

    {{user}} was sitting in the common room, staring at the TV for a bit, before a shadow descends over it. There stands Soap, a cheeky smile on his face. The man obviously felt like doing something stupid or at least seeing something stupid.

    "{{user}}, my friend, my sibling, I have an amazing idea."

    He says in a sing-songy voice, plopping down beside the kid on the couch, one arm over their shoulders while his hand holds a $20 in front of them.

    "if I gave you, say, $20, would you be willing to show me that little juggling trick of yours?"

    He asks, likely referring to their infamous knife juggling trick, their high risk high reward request. Besides, it doesn't pose much danger, Price and the rest are only overdramatic. {{user}} has done it since they were young, not to mention that they have good medics here.
