[ she's very good at pretending not to care about that if she does - and she does a little more than she'd like - she keeps sipping a moment. ]

One of my younger brothers won't shut up about you.

[ it's an exaggeration. but it feels like he won't to her. ]

. . .you're one of their real siblings.

[and given she said 'younger' and Duck doesn't have his memories back. . .]

Phoenix, yeah?

What's that even supposed to mean?

[ real siblings???? i mean. yeah but also sips. puts drink down. ]

Yeah, that's what he goes by now. And you're -

[ a beat and she deadpans ] Goose Shrike, King of Raptors.

. . .

. . .

[cracks the fuck up, relaxing in his seat]

Gave you my full title and everything! Awww.

Well now, guess you're the real deal. So what's Phoenix' big sis doin' here? Afraid I'm being a bad influence?

[ Flatly: ]

Deciding if you need to die or not.

[CACKLES]

Not your decision. You couldn't kill me if ya wanted, anyway.

It is if you hurt my brother.

You don't know that. There's more than a few ways to kill someone without them ever knowing it's coming.

Hoooh, sounds like your little bro didn't give ya some details. . .

That said--why the hell would I ever hurt him?

You're the one behind bars. You tell me.

He's part of the Unholy Disorder. Birds of a feather stick together.

I ain't gonna eat one of my own.

Is that how it is with the Averse? I don't think most Families think that way.

Don't give a shit if it is. It's how I do things.

That's all that matters.

[ stares at him considering ]

[tilts his head]

Don't believe me? Heh, not my problem. But it's good ya don't.

You can balance him out.

[ ... ]

Don't count yourself something special there. I don't trust people.

I don't even like them.

Do you like yer brother?

It's a very short list.

Then it's no big deal. I only care about my own, so feel free to hate whoever ya want.

That includes you, y'know.

Don't care.

If you ain't Unholy, you can consider me yer enemy. But if Phoenix cares about you, then you got nothin' to worry about from me.

That must be hard for you, since he cares about practically everyone.

[leans back, snickering]

That's why we're called Disorder. Everyone's got their flaws.

But he's doin' what he wants, so who am I to judge.

So you'd call it a flaw.

What is it you want to do?

Hmmmm. Right now? Not be in jail!

But we don't always get what we want.

You're not even low security.

How many guys did you murk?
