Hey, I'll have you know my jokes are top notch, just not a lot of people appreciate them, is all. And I'm always down for another drinking and bitching session. You're always welcome at Hella Shorty's, on me.

(and that's not her fault. but yeah this is going to suck and she can't keep stalling. she feels like she's being invasive as she picks up his list of sins -- a lot of them are similar to some of her own, but there's one that stands out.)

You have another brother? And left him in hell to rot? (was adam a lost cause like willa had been? maybe it doesn't matter. she grabs a notched leather whip and strikes it across his chest. she doesn't relish doing it, but she tries to keep her face neutral. they need to sell this or it's going to be worse.)
