Joey was cleaning out the car he, Ferrous, and Inferno would be driving to the tailor's in.
"Don't ask me, Blondie. I'm only caring for this little slice of beauty."He got out of the back of the Mustang where he had been clearing out chips of rust, metal, and trophy dust.
"And it's Castanzano, not Wheeler, kid. Get it straight and you'll live longer in this town.
He held his hands up in front of him when he saw Rugal tense up,Cool it, bro. I'm just stating a fact that alot o' us wiseguys still try to act like it's still back in the day. But the supes' kinda cut our lines and more than a few of our lives. Carmine's one of the only old heads still alive, and he gets a bit touchy if you get a Don's name wrong.Not that there's a hell of alot o' guys still loyal to my family. They're either all dead or had to cut their losses and run when Graviton started hunting us."
He leaned back and lit the cigarette the new guy had given him the night before.
"And stop worrying about Inferno so much, kid, she's tough, and she's got nothing to fear from me, not my type. I'm only taking her and Metal Head because one, she's not one to sit back and watch from the sidelines,if I read her right. And two, Metal Head's a bit intimidating, so it'll make them stop looking at her until she lights up and starts melting the concrete."
He continued to smoke until it hit the butt, then dropped it and stepped out whatever fire was left.
"Speaking of which, they up yet?"
