The bar door opens wide and hits its baseboards with a slam, a blur of brown leather somersaulting in to land on the floor.

At least when he lands, he still has both pistol and honest-to-Fozu bag of platinum.





...but Mal might need to stay on the floor. Just for a minute.

"Ow."

[ooc: heading off to bed.]

"Watch your mouth young man," Mal retorts, even with a smile on his face.

Good day.

[not_his_pa]

"Yes, sir. You alright?" Its hard to tell after an entrance like that.

[badinlatin]

"Shiny. Just...y'know. Awkward."

Still on the floor and all.

He gets up in a second though, waving the bag of loot slightly when he does. "Payoff."

[not_his_pa]

He pulls out one of the chairs at his table for Mal, "From what?"

[badinlatin]

"An entirely respectable and legal business transaction."

Yup.

[not_his_pa]

"Must have been a profitable one," It sounds like a lot of coins.

[badinlatin]

"With a minimum of bloodshed entire-like. What about you? Gettin' into any scraps lately?"

[not_his_pa]

"No, I've been keepin' out of trouble,"

Thalia and he aren't together but that's not trouble as much as what happens sometimes.

[badinlatin]

"And how's the brother?"

Mal knows a little bit about William's status now and then from his ma, but not too much.

[not_his_pa]

"Doin' good, he's helpin' me out with the ranch and keeps gettin' stronger."

[badinlatin]

"Does he come here?"

[not_his_pa]

"No, he doesn't though I've taken him medicine from here."

[badinlatin]

"You should bring 'im. Ma would feed him til he burst, you know."

[not_his_pa]

"I know and wish I could but never been able to make it work."

[badinlatin]

"Keep tryin' I think. It's worth it."

Mal shrugs, as though out of worthwhile things to say. "What're you reading?"

[not_his_pa]

"Kidnapped, I like it and I'm readin' all the books I can by the author. He writes good adventure stories."

[badinlatin]

Wait.

"Don't you basically live adventure stories?"

[not_his_pa]

"No, not really and this is set someplace else."

[badinlatin]

"If you say so, man who goes to the end of the 'verse and talks with folks who live in space."

[not_his_pa]

"Well, yeah, but I still like readin' about other places and talkin' to folks."

[badinlatin]

"Fair enough.

"Specially folk who fall into the bar."

[ooc; you to fade?]

[not_his_pa]

(OOC: That works. Thank you for the thread, he and Sallie should talk again.)

"Like you."
