“Fuck you, Charlie! This ain’t the way we do shit! This ain’t the way the Saints do shit! What the fuck do you think -”
“- Johnny, for fucks sake, listen to me, alright!? Look, I get it, you’ve got every right to be upset -”
“- You think I’m upset!? Is that what you think!?”
“Listen to me, for fucks sake! Maero offered me that shitty deal and I took it on the spot because it’s gonna keep him out of our fuckin’ hair! We’ve got three other gangs to cross off before we’re on top again, and all we’ve got to do it with is pocket change and a bunch of street kids!”
“So that’s your solution!? This fuckin’... pussy-ass sneaky shit!?”
“He’s arrogant, Johnny. Let him learn to underestimate us, and while he’s sat on his arse thinkin’ we’re below him, we’ll be taking care of the Ronin and the Samedi, and then, then, when we’ve got the cash and the manpower to do it proper, we’ll turn on him and bite his stupid head off, no contest.”
“I know. I know you don’t like it, I know you’d rather just get stuck in and get it done, and that’s how I’d rather do it too, but christ, Johnny. He’s so fuckin’ full of himself. It’s too good an opportunity not to take advantage of it.”
“Fine. But you better know this shit don’t sit well with me.“
“I know, Johnny. Take out your frustration on the Ronin and the Samedi for now, alright? We’ll get it all done in the end.”
“We better. And get yourself some new fuckin’ clothes. You look like shit.”
“Yeah, you’re right about that. C’mon, let’s go ‘n’ take potshots at cars at the intersection. That’ll put us in a good mood, an’ then we can pop into town and see what we can do to get me lookin’ presentable.”
Boy, it’s really weird to be coming into this straight off the back of Inktober and to start drawing normal human beings with normal human proportions instead of like, fridge-sized knights. Give me a few days to get into the swing of it, lmao.
Also, this month I’m going to be foisting the AU that I’ve cooked up onto all of you, wherein Charlie!Boss actually takes Maero up on his objectively garbage offer of collaboration, purely for the sake of keeping the Brotherhood at bay while the Saints get their shit together enough to compete with them. Or that’s how it starts, at least - none of it goes remotely to plan for anybody involved.
I call it 20/80! So that’s what I’ll be tagging it with all month. ( b ._.)b
