[ota] someday I'll fly away

[escapeandevade]

It was good to be home. Or at least maybe people were of the opinion that it was good to have Addy home again, which they seemed prone to stating over and over as he walked through the hallways on his way to see Argine about coming back to work as Eileen's bodyguard. Not that he had intentions of replacing Kevin, but the poor fella seemed in despite need of a vacation.

What he hadn't expected that morning was the news that the surveillance Elisha had asked him to put on Jack Donovan was terminated as quickly as it had started. Donovan was reported dead at the scene of a crime; apparently trying to stop another member of his team from going rogue. It made for an uncomfortable conversation in the near future with the king of Clubs.

Ah well, there wasn't much he could do on that front. So still, he'd find Argine first and eventually make his way back to the King. Perhaps after unpacking his things and putting them away, and having tea with Eileen.

She's quite likely at least that perceptive. Addy is more likely to get a hug than work to do.

Johnny shrugs, "it's not like it really took that much. 'Hey, you want to play some music?' and that's about it. I'm kind of easy."

In more than one respect, but particularly in this one.

"Suppose not everyone can be a stubborn hold out." He said, with a shrug.

"Being easy has it's downfalls though. No one likes a complete pushover."

[fiddlerjohnny]

"That's why you're not easy about everything. In my case it's mostly music, free drinks, and ladies."

At least he's honest about it.

"You got anything on your list or do you push back about everything?"

Just curious, not actually trying to start anything.

"I push back at anything I don't want to do. I'm a stubborn man." He said with a set in his jaw.

"Don't worry, I can be gentle about it too."

[fiddlerjohnny]

"I just want you to know how manfully I am not making any sort of reference to it being my first time and I want you to be gentle."

Except he just did. "But I promise I won't worry."

Because you know, as long as he doesn't do anything that requires Addy to bounce him out of the Castle, he should be okay, right?

[escapeandevade]

"Don't get too frisky, I have a man who has already claimed marriage...." Or something. He wasn't entirely sure what Kevin had been talking about, really. But that aside...

"But good to know. I'll see you around...."
