B’s amusement was damn infectious, and Pico felt his smile grow around the filter pursed between his lips. Plucking the cigarette up to once again blow smoke away, he glanced back at BF and nodded, undeniably taking some mental notes. Getting bitched at was definitely not the worst part of his line of work, but it was close, and despite the semblance of respect that he and Dearest seemed to have for each other, Pico clearly wasn’t immune from his wrath.
“ Shit, that’s genius. Can’t do nothin’ if he’s just talkin’ at me, can he? ”
Yup, that’s his backup plan confirmed. If reasoning fails, just space out and stare at a speck on the wall. Another drag was followed by Pico snuffing out the cigarette on the wall. “ If he winds up killin’ my ass, I’m hauntin’ you for feedin’ me bullshit. Got that? ” He spoke, lighthearted tone indicating a lack of actual aggression. He liked having B around too much to follow through on such threats, that and he doubted Double D would actually go through with killing such a loyal attack chihuahua, as Mearest had taken to calling him. He’d survived too much to die at the hands of some old fuck with a grudge.
🎤 Though it was a small change, it was easy for the singer to spot Pico’s growing smile, and it was something he didn’t want to see go away any time soon. In an attempt to keep that up, he playfully leaned over and bumped into him before standing up straight up again, shooting the other a quick wink.
“Genius indeed... Don’t need to tell me twice!”
🎤 The pause that followed kept Boyfriend from looking away from the merc, his curiosity of the other’s thoughts locking him in a one-sided staring contest. He almost made a joke about finishing off the cigarette for him, but he managed to bite his tongue. He fully knew the idea would be rejected for his own voice’s sake, but he didn’t wanna risk anything.
🎤 So when the threat followed the drag, BF finally broke his stare to shut his eyes for another laugh.
“Yeah yeah, dude, I hear ya. I’m sure you’ll do your worst~ Wonder if you’ll get to bring a ghost weapon with you in the afterlife.”
