[He picks up after the third ring. Why you call, Pinky Pie?]

Yeah?

Phone

[pinkeffinprofessional]

I'm only gonna say this shit once.

You're a fucking liar and a backstabber and your boyfriend or whatever the fuck you call each other is an asshole who tried to break my ribs over you.

[There's a pause]

I need a drink.

Phone

[orangetoughguy]

[Uh. What does a guy say to shit like that?!]

...Fuck you too.

[Yep. Wait what? A drink? With Mr. Orange? Freddy Newendyke? The rat?] You know White's gonna come along, right.

[Because what if the weasel tries to shoot him in the back. Actually Freddy doesn't think that's too likely, not because Pink has a moral compass but because Pink knows the violence wouldn't end there. As long as they're in the city Orange being a cop means shit here. Well save for the whole betrayal backstabbing Judas bit.]

[Good enough.]

Tell him he better be over the fact that I kicked him in the balls.

[And a pause]

No guns.

Phone

[orangetoughguy]

His balls are okay. [Haha bet you totally wanted to know that, Mr. Pink.] No guns, fair enough.

[In the back of his mind he's thinking guns are simply business, knives are personal. But if he recalls correctly the weasel's a little bit on the squeamish side when it comes to unnecessary bloodletting anyway.]

[lakdjflakf fuck you Newendyke]

And I plan on getting fall down drunk so you better fucking pick me up if I do.

[He's still not telling you where he lives though.]

Phone

[orangetoughguy]

[Heh heh heh.]

What happened?

Phone

[pinkeffinprofessional]

I'm having a terrible fucking week and it's only Tuesday.

Phone

[orangetoughguy]

Okay. Fair enough. [Repetition within a different context.] Your choice?

[For the bar. Plus Freddy kind of owes it to him.]

Phone

[pinkeffinprofessional]

There's that dive at the entrance to the Underground near six.

Phone

[orangetoughguy]

Are you a regular there?

[Just a question, not fishing for details. He's not being a cop right now, Mr. Pink, though it's true you can't take the officer out of him either.]

Phone

[pinkeffinprofessional]

Only been there once.

[Who knows if that's a lie, Pink's not telling]

Phone

[orangetoughguy]

Okay. Twenty minutes.

Phone

[pinkeffinprofessional]

I'll see you there.
