New Year Party at the Safehouse

[returnher]

On the West Coast, it's not quite New Year yet, but Locke is hanging out at the Safe House with a few packs of Kirin Beer and hanging out. It's not the biggest deal for him, but it's kind of fun to watch the fireworks go off and this way he doesn't have to dodge drunks who might run him over or worse, compel him to punch the shit out of them. Right now he's pretty much drinking and watching football. If anyone asks, he's totally old enough and Shinji clearly doesn't give a shit.

"I see," Having his father's 'best interests' in mind was a bit of an understatement, but Leo understands. "If the opportunity arises, I'll have to remember what you said; it may be something I come to lean on."

"We all need to figure out what we think is right. That's why we do this, isn't it?"

"That's right." It's strange, but he doesn't think this is a bad start to the new year. "My name's Leo, by the way. I'm one of the Infiltrators. It's nice to meet you."

"Colin Locke. Call me Locke. Nice to meet you, Leo. Looks like you've got some shit at home, but don't worry about that stuff here."

"Thanks, Locke," indeed, he does have quite a bit on his plate back home. "I'll focus on my job as a Phantom Thief for as long as I'm here. When the time comes, if you need someone to infiltrate a Palace with you, I'm here."

"Likewise. I don't like letting rotten people get away."
