"Well, okay... As long as you're sure," Nate laughed, his head shaking in amusement. "I can tell that I've been away for a while... Last time I was in a place like this, the girls weren't anything like that friend of yours. I never had to speak to them like I spoke to your friend. It's a whole different ball game here, that's for sure."

"Well, let's see... you've met Macbeth," said Risk, trying to remember the girls he knew at the lodging house. "...and Ershey. Rae's, uh, Spot's ex-girlfriend? I don't know, but she's here... she's a bit of a handful but not too bad, really. Tag's always reading and Script's always baking... Wraith's usually lurking... let's just say the rest of the girls you'll deal with will be cake."

"Oof, that sounds like a lot of girls!" Nate replied with a slightly-nervous laugh. "I'll have to see if I can remember all of those when the time comes."
He shrugged and headed off towards the front door. "I don't know about you, but after that I could kinda use a smoke."

"That sounds like a really good idea," he smiled, following Nate closely behind. "Got a cigarette?"

"Sure, I got a cigarette. Got more than enough to spare," Nate replied. Grinning, he slid his hand into his pocket and pulled out a metal cigarette case. Flipping it open, he pulled out a cigarette and handed it to Risk before taking one out for himself. He paused to strike a match, using it to light his cigarette with.

"I think," he muttered as Nate lit his cigarette. "That you just became my new best friend."

"Is that so?" Nate asked with a grin. He brought the cigarette to his lips and took a slow drag. "If that's all I have to do to make friends, I guess I should bring cigarettes around all the time!"

"I don't really spend a lot of time with a lot of the newsies here," he shrugged. "Well, I only really talk to a couple. So, you pass. Feel special."
Of course, he wasn't about to mention how they thought he was shifty when he first moved in. That's another story for a different time.

"Well, I'm glad I passed with someone around here!" Nate laughed as he stopped at the corner to ash his cigarette before crossing the street. "You're not so bad yourself, you know that? I mean, guaranteed I just met you, but you seem to have a decent head on your shoulders."

Risk shrugged. "It's good enough," he replied before taking a drag from his cigarette. "'Sides, you just met me. That's not sayin' much just yet."

"Hey, don't try to ruin a good thing here, Risk!" Nate joked, his laughter growing. He took another drag of his cigarette as Irving Hall gradually came into view. "Until somethin' happens to tell me otherwise, you're perfectly fine in my book."

"Let's see what you think in about two hours after we step foot in that place," he smirked, gesturing at Irving Hall.

Nate couldn't help but laugh at that, his shoulders simply shrugging and he continued his approach towards Irving Hall. "Well, we'll see how you like me, too. How about that?" He smirked, his eyebrows arching jokingly. It had been a while since he had gone out and had a few drinks, this was definitely long overdue.

"Sounds fair," nodded Risk, flicking out his cigarette and stepping on it as they entered Irving Hall. "What's your drink of choice?" He lead him towards the bar and waved the bartender over.

"Whiske," Nate replied as he slid up onto an empty barstool and nodded his head to greet the bartender, "on the rocks. What's yours?"
