Hey, Levi!

[ Lalo knows the kid, and he immediately lights up with fondness at the sight of him. He even ruffles Levi's hair affectionately.

When Levi looks like he's going to try to stop the fight, though, Lalo moves in front of him. ]

Don't, kid. They'll send you flying. This shit is personal.

[solitarysoul]

[Levi allows the ruffling but mostly looks confused.]

I, uh...

[Good, he doesn't want to be responsible for stopping whatever the fuck is happening. He rests his rifle against a wall so he can remove his coat.]

...w-what's going on?

[jackdawvision]

Bigger fellow just started a fight with this man who looks a bit like a rat. It’s almost like Nassau.

[Sometimes Edward even started those fights for the hell of it.]

Who do you think will win?

[solitarysoul]

[Oh. Ed was still weird. Okay.]

I don't know. I don't really know either of them well.

[He'd talked to both, but not much. Hickey had said something about him taking someone weaker than himself into the woods with him so he assumes Hickey will do whatever it takes to win. The other guy had seemed really nice, but he looks pretty pissed off. Levi wouldn't have expected him to start a fight, so he has no idea how Jopson'd do.]

I wonder why.

[...and how it took so long for people to come to blows in public, honestly.]
