This was going to wind up costing them a fortune. Not least because all it would take was a sob story, the slightest hint of desperation, and his sheltered little sister would be absolutely beside herself to give him anything she could.
Irritating. The metaphorical blank check itched at him like an open sore, and he considered going back out to where the warriors assigned to guard them were waiting. More than he got when he left Dinétah alone, and in those cases they usually came along for fun as much as protection. These ones were all business, because outsiders couldn't be trusted with women unless they had knives to their throats. Not that he was planning to call the whole thing off just yet, but it might be a good idea to warn them in advance if he thought someone was trying to take more than he was owed. They had a zero tolerance policy about that kind of shit, these days.
Closing his eyes for a moment, he took a deep breath, let the air move through him and chase away the stiff irritation of his limbs. That lazy smile returned as he stuck the pipe back between his teeth, took a long drag this time. "Well I could go for a drink," he declared to Vegas, moving closer to the bar so he could lean against it again. "How about I have some of whatever's your favorite?" he suggested, and he could only hope she did not have a particular taste for rotgut. He probably ought to have been saving his goods for whatever Mai's new pet would be charging, but he felt a petty desire to treat himself as a response to her behavior.
