The man laughed, “ you can call me Juan, Juan Reyes; I also accept The King.” Cocksure demeanor aside, he fastly capable of taking a verbal put down. “I had a convoy of people from a Refugee camp. We traveled together, built perimeters with our cars. Geeze we were a hundred strong after the camp fell. Little by little, we died, or drove off ” Juan recalled, staring ahead, wide-eyed, “ When we came across the Saviour’s, after dealing with monsters and savages, most of us decided to hitch onto their wagon. Survival, it’s important; like with your leg your making the smart choice and staying and contributing, despite your ailment.” Strutting out to the auto yard he shrugged, “ I am rotating agent, I work with the lieutenants and Negan from time to time, but Negan is the big boss.” He took note of her walking but did not offer to help, figuring on biding his time, “ Hey I got no problem looking out for your ass. It’s what we do, we don’t fuck with each other here. Just one big family.”
Harlow laughed, unable to help herself. “I’m sure anyone that’s called you ‘the King’ was really only referring to you by your last name.” she assumed that was where the nickname came from, but he seemed like the type that was just confident enough to feel deserving of the title. “Sounds intense. Sorry to hear that.” Groups fell apart fast now, one mistake could lead to a huge disaster. It was one of the many reasons she had preferred being alone. “Not sure I’ve decided to stay yet,” she warned. “for now we can assume it’s just until I heal.” Harlow seemed to have the impression that she could leave if she pleased, given to her by the fact that Kitty was able to come and go so freely. This wasn’t the case for most, however. Harlow nodded as he explained his position, suggesting that she understood. “You don’t have to. I was on my own for… months. I can handle whatever happens myself.” Harlow approached the vehicle she was asked to look at, giving it a once over before she set to work on it. She followed up by checking the likely solutions to the problems that had been described to her previously. Harlow became distracted by the job, determined to get it fixed by the end of the night. She set her crutches to the side, and used her upper body to pull herself onto the trucks bumper so she could get a better look under the hood.
He shrugged, “ Eh, it started as a nickname from my first trainer and then advertising blew it up. I was an up and coming MMA fighter. I was gonna do a title match, and then wildfire or the start got in the way, a few shootings at the stadium and the fight was canceled.” The man shook his head, what was gone, and what was present was a living nightmare; more for most. “ THat’s the thing though, I do, I really do. The point is collective security. We are all on the same side here, and we look out for each other. Besides, I got to look busy or fuck I might get put back on fence detail; or work for Eugene. I mean smart guy but that motormouth get's annoying.” Laughing again, he walked cocksure alongside her, " Guess I can be your tool grabber.”
