Nevada gave Tristan a confused look before looking back at Wraith, 'care to elaborate?'

"I'm...meeting up with an old friend...but it's been a while since we've seen each other, and I've changed a lot. I'm...afraid he won't like me this way. And I'm looking for just the right present to bring him--thought I might find it in Brooklyn."
She deadpanned her way through this little speech while facing Nevada, though every word was intended to get through to Tristan.

Nevada didn't like all this, why couldn't she just get to the point.
'what are you looking for?'

"Uh huh," Tristan said. "I need a smoke, why don't you come with me?" He asked her. "Nevada, we'll be back." He walked to the back of the house where the fire escape was located, opened the window and climbed out.
"What plan? And what do you want me to do?"

Nevada wasn't stupid. She didnt like that Tristan was treating her as if she was. Smoke. Uh huh. There was something more to it. She stared daggers at the two of them as they left.

(( it's a tad bit jealousy-because she knows Tristan isn't that stupid-and pissed because there's definitely something he hadn't told her. And after the boxing she thought he'd be upfront haha ))

((Aww, Wraith is sorry for the marital troubles! If it helps, she will never ever be attracted to Tristan. Because he's, well, a he.))
Wraith breathed an inward sigh of relief, sent Nevada a rather apologetic glance, and followed Tristan out onto the fire escape. She took a deep breath, even more terrified now. Unlike her brother on most occasions, she had no people skills. She didn't know how to do this except bluntly. So out it all came in a nervous rush.
"There's this guy, a policeman, named Ericson. He...did things to me a year ago, and he's extorting money from another girl in my lodging house now. So I recruited my brother, and she recruited her boyfriend, and we're going to take him out, and I'm asking for a gun and maybe some help, and I could give you all the details of what he did and try to make you feel sorry for me, but as far as incentive goes, that's all I've got." She looked at him sideways. "Unless you want...but I don't think you do, 'cause you could've gotten that easily the night we met."
And this was the longest speech Wraith had made since she told Kennedy her life story. When she finished, she had to sit down abruptly or she might've passed out.

"You want me to kill a cop?" Was Tristan's response, he sighed heavily and lit up his cigarette, staring out at the city before looking at her. "I think I got a pretty clear picture of what he did to you, kid." He said, he took a long drag. He thought for a long while about this.
"You know there's absolutely no benefit for me in this...and my family? What would happen to them if I get thrown in the clink?"

"I know," she muttered. "If there's anything any of us can offer..." She really doubted Ershey or Mush had anything he wanted. And Goblin? "My brother's good at sneaky plans," she said hopefully. "And probably has a lot of shady connections I don't know about."
((Oh wow, now I kind of want her to lend him Goblin for some sketchy purpose. I just haven't gotten that boy into enough trouble yet.))

Tristan smirked at her. "Yea?" He asked and nodded his head. "All I care about is if he's good at making money." Who was he kidding? He knew he was gonna help them.

((Haha, poor Tristan will be in so much trouble with her either way.))
"He is," she said nervously, remembering how he'd kept them fed for two years back when she was completely useless. "I don't actually know how he does it, though..." She regarded him with the wide grey eyes of a scrawny fifteen-year-old girl in distress. Who really needed a gun. "So what do you say?"
