((Haha, we should have them tell that story someday. We can wait till they're in the same thread, then just have them go back and forth and see what they come up with.))
"You shouldn't do anything before you're ready," Race said. "It's obviously not my place to say, but...if you're falling apart now, maybe it's just 'cause it's too soon. Maybe you should take a break, figure things out. You know you're welcome here for as long as you want. Only, if Spot comes looking for you, should really tell him I told you to go straight back home," he added quickly.

In between her tears she laugh. "I will." She said. "I was thinking just to stay for a few days...I mean we share a bed, its hard. I...don't really sleep anymore, sometimes I'm just sitting up staring at him."

"We've got plenty of empty bunks in the girls' room. And rumor has it they've been known to get up in the middle of the night and use the boys' shower, so if you ever have to pace or drink weird tea or stare at them a while, they'll have no cause for complaint."
((Ooh, and Wraith finally spilled her tragic life story, in the Wraith & Kennedy thread, demonstrating why they should totally bond over the whole "I was raped and then killed the bastard" deal.))

"Well okay then," Raven managed a laugh and then smiled. "Thanks Race...I needed this." ((I saw that, well Rae's gonna be in hattan for awhile so it can definitely happen also what the hell does Wraith want out of poor Tristan...the guys already involved with the mafia, into illegal boxing in the points, dudes gonna end up arrested lol))

((Haha, I know! That's what he gets for rescuing homicidal damsels in distress. If it helps, she pretty much just wants a gun.))
"Any time." He smiled back. "And I mean that. If you need to talk again, I'll always be around. Don't even have any money to spare on the races right now."

"Race! You could always find a dime for the races." She said with a grin. She wiped her face again and sighed. "Don't worry, when I have my next breakdown I will find you."

He nodded, satisfied. "You'd do the same for me."

"Course I would." She smiled at him. "Race? Don't let Jack tell Spot I'm here...not yet."

"You got it," he said. Jack probably wouldn't be happy about that, but Race prided himself on his ability to talk Jack into virtually anything. Kind of the opposite of his dynamic with Spot back in his Brooklyn days, and this version suited him better.

"Thanks," She said and she really meant it. She was also wondering how Jack was going to feel about Rae being in the Manhattan lodging house again...her first stint didn't go so well.

"He'll welcome you back," Race assured her, reading her mind--or maybe just remembering how eager Jack had seemed to get rid of her the first time around. "He always liked you, y'know, he just...thought you had more of a Brooklyn flavor. 'Sides, he can't afford to offend you now, you've got political clout. You're, like...the queen of Brooklyn."

"That's right, he needs to treat his allies nicely. It's best not to shun royalty." She lifted her chin dramatically and waved her hand in a flourish.

"And can I can get you anything, your Majesty? A drink, perhaps, or some sort of refreshment? Or I'd be honored to show you to your chambers."
