[Mickey. @hotheadflyboy]

If you are then— is it more about the principle?

[Eden————— 𝔖𝔥𝔞𝔡𝔬𝔴 1-3 @gildedhound]

Huh? No. No, um…

[ fingers drumming on thigh. Leg bouncing. ]

I’m not usually involved in too much. Equipment maintenance. Think I’m actually being kept away from shite sometimes.

But who knows. Maybe I’ll get yeeted into somethin’ questionable.

[Mickey. @hotheadflyboy]

[ he chews on his lip and hums his understanding]

He doesn't have you doing the arms dealing, does he? Does it come with a bonus?

[Eden————— 𝔖𝔥𝔞𝔡𝔬𝔴 1-3 @gildedhound]

[ Russian mafia apparently—but he’s got the sense to not speak on anything that can’t be found on public record, even if only just tabloid gossip. ]

Fuck if I know. I’ll be damned if I know how that man’s mind works.

Starting to reconsider renewing my contract though.

[Mickey. @hotheadflyboy]

Arms dealers? Really? That's a big step up for Graves, that's for sure.

Whatever next?

[Eden————— 𝔖𝔥𝔞𝔡𝔬𝔴 1-3 @gildedhound]

Yeah s’ always been a little shady, I knew I was signing up for shady, but there’s like…

…we get paid by the government to be shady, and then there’s like.

[ deep breath. ]

Can’t be specific, but there’s some articles floating around. Known arms dealers shady.

[Mickey. @hotheadflyboy]

Oh.

[ Well, he hopes he didn't make things awkward. Mickey looks at the receipt in his hand and pockets it for later ]

Shady? Wasn't it always a little shady?

[Eden————— 𝔖𝔥𝔞𝔡𝔬𝔴 1-3 @gildedhound]

[ blinking up. ]

I’m fucking wiv yeh.

[ Scribble. Scribble. And then smacking a KFC receipt into Mickey’s hand with ‘Ed’, his number, and a little doodle of a dog. ]

Yeah. It’s just getting…busy. And…shady, if I’m being honest. Always been a bit shady, but.

[Mickey. @hotheadflyboy]

Did it on pu— n— why would you think so? I didn't do it on purpose. Why would you even think I'd do something like that?

[ He watches him for a moment, still a little indignant]

Weird?

[Eden————— 𝔖𝔥𝔞𝔡𝔬𝔴 1-3 @gildedhound]

Mate yeh say it like that and it sounds like yeh did it on purpose.

[ patting himself down. Hm. Where…how about—okay. And pen…scribbling. ]

Uhm.
Yeah. Yeah. It’s uh…

…it’s getting weird, I’m no’ gonna lie.

[Mickey. @hotheadflyboy]

Naaah. I kind of lost your number. That's why I haven't been in touch.

Lost my phone then had to get a burner.

You still with Shadow?

[Eden————— 𝔖𝔥𝔞𝔡𝔬𝔴 1-3 @gildedhound]

Good.

If yeh need anything yeh still got my number, right?

[Mickey. @hotheadflyboy]

Me? Yeah, yeah. Been okay. Will be okay.

[ Nod nod grin ]

[Eden————— 𝔖𝔥𝔞𝔡𝔬𝔴 1-3 @gildedhound]

Mmmmmmmmmmm.

[ don’t like that. Don’t like that at all. ]

…yeh gonna be okay?

[Mickey. @hotheadflyboy]

A guy. Who knows a guy. Who happened to be my cell mate.

[Eden————— 𝔖𝔥𝔞𝔡𝔬𝔴 1-3 @gildedhound]

[ brows up. ]

Yeah? By who?

[Mickey. @hotheadflyboy]

[ he shrugs ]

It's fine. Got out okay. Got bailed out.

[Eden————— 𝔖𝔥𝔞𝔡𝔬𝔴 1-3 @gildedhound]

[ gently pat-swatting some of the dirt off. ]

Still sucks mate. Only been there a few times.

[Mickey. @hotheadflyboy]

[ he chuckles when he's finally up and mumbles a thank you. ]

Nah, it's fine. It wasn't too bad this time. I guess.

[Eden————— 𝔖𝔥𝔞𝔡𝔬𝔴 1-3 @gildedhound]

[ inhale—-raspberrying a cheek and then getting up, YOINKing Mickey to his feet by a hand wrapped around his forearm. ]

Awh, hell mate. Wish I knew. I’d sneak yeh pocket pussies and drop commissary money.

[Mickey. @hotheadflyboy]

[ playful snort ]

I'm alive and well. Was just locked up.

[Eden————— 𝔖𝔥𝔞𝔡𝔬𝔴 1-3 @gildedhound]

[ HEADBUTTING. Rubbing his face o—hang on, quash that instinct. ]

My god I thought yeh were dead

[Eden————— 𝔖𝔥𝔞𝔡𝔬𝔴 1-3 @gildedhound]

ME. ME YOU MISSED ME YOU DAFT CUNT

[Mickey. @hotheadflyboy]

She has a smile like the sun.

[Mickey. @hotheadflyboy]

Fuck me, what did I miss?

[Mickey. @hotheadflyboy]

[Mickey. @hotheadflyboy]

He smiles back.

"Yeah. Not too bad. Was a long night."

[‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎𝙬𝙝𝙖𝙩'𝙨 𝙪𝙥 𝙙𝙤𝙘 .ᐣ @mediccaptain]

She tugs off the headset and pauses the game with a soft smile.

"Hey, you. Sleep well?"

[Mickey. @hotheadflyboy]

"Hey." He heads into the kitchen. He wouldn't mind it if she played with the volume up a bit, he doubts he'd hear it.

[‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎𝙬𝙝𝙖𝙩'𝙨 𝙪𝙥 𝙙𝙤𝙘 .ᐣ @mediccaptain]

She's hunkered down in the couch with a video game controller and a headset on as she plays Shadow of Mordor without the volume. She didn't know if/when he'd be up, so she wanted to be respectful.
