Song: In One Ear by Cage The Elephant
You pushed the doors open to the bar, it smelled strongly of beer and blood.
The blood was from the bodies laying around the on the floor.
You carefully stepped around them, looking over to the empty bar and could assume the bartender either got away or had the same fate as the rest of the poor suckers lying around and was just on the other side of the counter.
You stood up tall as you spied the only other breathing person in the bar. He was downing a glass of whiskey, not even looking at you.
You pulled the gun out of your holster and aimed it towards him, “Hands up! I was called here for a bar fight.”
The man played along, placing his drink down and holding his hands up in false defeat, “Doesn’t look like much of a fight anymore. And who exactly are you suppose to be?”
“Officer Y/N. Respect the badge,” you tapped the gold shield on your chest.
Tyler snorted, “Well, Officer can you grab me another bottle of whiskey. I’m almost out.”
You rolled your eyes and holstered the gun, “Lazy ass.” You hopped over the bar and scrounged around the top shelf for a good bottle.
“Where did you even get that getup?” Tyler laughed leaning back in his chair.
“It came with the police car outside,” you smirked, finally picking a bottle. You shook the bottle at him before tossing it over. “You drink? I drive. We cause havoc?”
He stood as his way of telling you he was in. The two of you made your way back outside. The cop car was sitting there, lights flashing.
Tyler chuckled, “Where the fuck did you get a cop car?”
You gave him a wicked smile and walked him over to the trunk, opening it and showing him the body inside.
“You’re evil,” Tyler shook his head but grinned.
“He’s the one who showed up while I was breaking in,” you shrugged and closed the trunk, “Besides I’m not the one who shot up a bar for free whiskey.”
“I was bored. My partner in crime was off on a solo adventure. What’s a guy to do?” he joked.
You just shook your head and climbed into the driver's seat. Tyler got into the passenger’s seat and held up his bottle, “To one hell of a night.”
“Los Santos has no idea what storm is about to hit them,” you hummed and flipped on the siren before taking off.
Several hours later you and Tyler had parked on an overlook that gave you a perfect view of the destruction that you and your best friend had created.
Tyler was fiddling with the radio trying to find a station that played halfway decent music. When he finally settled on something he climbed out of the car and onto the hood, taking the spot next to you.
“They’re blaming tonight on the Fakes. They think the bar was Vagabond and the cop car was Rimmy Tim,” he spoke up as he passed you the bottle.
You took it, taking your first drink of the night. Your body instantly warming as the alcohol hit you.
“Six months of this and still the LSPD don’t even realize we exist,” you shook your head and passed the bottle back before laying down, back warm against the hood, your eyes went to the sky.
“Maybe if you stopped shooting the few cops who do run across us,” Tyler pointed out, laying back with you.
“Oh, what fun would that be,” you laughed. “Besides I like a town that doesn’t know my name. Our names. They will. In the meantime, I don’t have to worry about how they didn’t get my good side in our mug shots.”
Tyler chuckled then he dropped into a more serious tone for a moment, “You ever get bored of it. All this?”
“No!” You quickly turned to look at him. “Why do you?”
“Why would I? I’m living the life with my favorite person in the whole world,” Tyler answered.
Content with his response you laid back down but not before taking another drink, “Good. I would never want to do this without you.”
soft headcanon: michael genuinely loving his crew but hes just terrible at expressing it other than a staunchy stay the fuck safe, like i dont want blood on my carpet &lbr hes an utter softie like he bought a MASSIVE bouquet for valentines day (not even shippy, he just wanted his crew to feel loved) and when geoff found out it was him, he fucking /howled/ so michael flushed red n started stuttering excuses
(u totally sent this to me like over a day ago and I forgot it, so sorry my love)
But yes, I 100% support this. Michael isn’t really used to soft expressions of caring. He’s the ‘tough love’, the insults that seem fond, the shoulder punches that seem friendly. He isn’t the best at super genuine, soft, vulnerable expressions of caring. So he does it all secretly and the others almost don’t believe it’s him, but it’s cute and adorable and i just love the soft boys ok
i have never actually been to a night club so i’d say cafe gay asdlkfjs
27. what is a piece of advice you have for young / baby gays
as cliche as it is, it’s okay to not know exactly what you are and that identity and sexuality and gender, it’s all fluid. and if one day you figure out that you’re not x anymore, but y instead, that’s alright too. (i went from IDing as cis, to IDing as genderfluid to finally finding my happy ID with nb)
my usual playlist is outta commission so uhhhh sorry its gonna be nothin but one hit wonders asldkfjs
now and then i think of when we were togthereverybody was kung-fu fighting you’ll say we got nothing in commonwhat is love, baby don’t hurt meher name is noel
