how do you wanna face it? when the end is so close you can taste it
“I been busy,” I quip back, though there’s absolutely no need to justify why it’s there. “We’ll see what happens. Remi ‘n Ronin lived in a wagon before they built that place… may not be the kind’a guys to stay in one place if they don’t have to.” No sense’a home in Torchline, no reason to stick around if Remi ain’t Governor… I mean, I’d stay, but I ain’t an Outlander. This is home. It’ll always be home.
Which I guess is part’a the reason I don’t like an Outlander as Governor. No sense’a long-lived loyalty. Not like us smugglers.
Anyway, I shrug an’ lead the way back to the main room, purposefully putin’ a little extra sway in my step. Out there, Zeph has rearranged the furniture exactly the way it has been, an’ Theo’s more or less got the cleanin’ up done. Well, enough for me. “I’ll handle the rest,” I call to ‘im after putin’ the rest’a the bottles on the shelf an’ comin’ out from behind the bar.
Milo’s got the carpenter’s cart almost loaded up, so I’ll leave that to finish an’ then throw in the towel. Which is good, ‘cause I can feel the heat settin’ in an’ am ready to call it a day. “Come on, boys, let’s call it. Like I said, breakfast on me.” I can figure out the rest when the sun goes down tonight.

We done! Next time Jack, Milo, Zeph, or Theo come to the HM, they’re welcome to a night of free drinking. Just make sure to tell Mik if Raza isn’t around ;)
