"C'mon, I'll take ya out to lunch," he said, letting his accent slip out just a bit. He made his way towards the cashier, ready to collect his winnings. "What do ya want today?"

IT made her laugh, she almost missed that, slipping her arm through his as she walked with him. "Anythin' as long as it's not at the pub an' I don't have ta make it."

"You know any place around here?" he asked, leading her outside. The only thing he really knew was the Races and the Brooklyn Lodging House. Other than that, he was a true Manhattan boy. "Unless you wanna come with me to Manhattan!"

"I mean, uh, only if you want... we can stay here in Brooklyn too," he said, hoping he wasn't causing any additional trouble for her.

"Why not? I have't seen YOUR Mannattan.. you must have a wee bit of a different one than I've been too. I want to see it." And she wanted to get him over to Da's to get them talking-- she couldn't bare the haunted look she'd seen on his face.

"Alright, whatever you say," he laughed, shaking his head as he led her towards Manhattan. Granted, he was a bit scared to face his father but figured he needed it. It'd been years. And with Ma gone, he really needed to see his family.

She talked on the way-- about their brothers that had been married and about the kids, about Brodie since Vi was close to him and about how Daniel had become a prize fighter. It was about family, and she was-- so much like their mother.

Specs led the way towards Mama's Italian Restaurant. It wasn't too fancy but it wasn't necessarily around the rich folk either. It was just right. And he figured he might as well treat his sister out. He listened to her intently as they walked, amazed at how things have changed. He wished he hadn't lied to his family... or else he would've known about Ma.
"Two, please," grinned Specs as the waiter led them towards their table.

Vi nodded her head and stil tried to let him know what was going on without giving him too much bad. When mum died everything had changed it was true, they'd thought he'd known... when she took a seat she let out a sigh. "You're taller'n me now.."

"I've always been taller than you," he laughed, shooting her a look. "So, you mentioned this Tristan guy earlier... are you two, uh, dating?"

"Wah!?" she stared at him for a long moment before she snorted-- oh good God what had she been doing mentioning Tristan. "No... not goin' tagether he pisses me off if ya want the gods honest truth.. he likes to irritate me." But could calm her down just as fast.

"But you still like him?" he smirked. He knew his sister too well.

"I--" she opened her mouth to protest and then sighed, she couldn't lie to Ryan. "I do like 'im.. parts a him, other parts a him I can' stand an' he don' want me. He just wants the conquest. The untouchable Violet Lyons... caught.." she shook her head at that. "Never gonna be the girl that can just accept it.. plus he's a slut... whore's get paid the man will sleep with anythin' in a skirt."
