⮕ video: before the event

[Vi comes on the feed, and it's clear she's a little awkward. she's really not used to making network posts for herself, especially about stuff like this. it looks like she's drying off a wet cup though, and it looks like she's standing behind a bar. there's a lot of liquor behind her...]

Hey. So, uh... the original guys who ran Lupin left. I've been cleaning up some of their shit, so I haven't really said that I've kinda took it over.

[well. she's bullied Caitlyn into doing some of the admin work, so she can be a bartender LMFAO]

Just saying that it's still open. Whoever worked here while Dazai and Sigma are here, don't feel like you gotta stay. Other than that...

[she sets the glass down, frown deepening.]

Don't come in here and fuck anything up. I'll toss you out. If you want to do something shitty, go to the Last Drop.

[and then she turns the feed off.]

[there's a long silence. she feels like she knows exactly what he's trying to say, though. from the limited times she's spoken to him, she feels like they can be kind of similar. the hot tempers. the regrets.

she sighs.]

I know.

[if only things hadn't turned out the way they did at home...]

I can't promise I'll do better, but I'll try.

[rebellions]

Fair enough.

[ Regardless of how he feels about Jinx, he's still essentially a stranger, so this is probably more than he could expect from Vi, anyway. He still can't help but try and push them towards making up whenever he gets an opportunity, because he knows better than anyone getting a second chance like this is rare. ]

... I hate to say this, but it might be for the best if you avoid coming home when the old fart's around, too. Wouldn't wanna be forced to kick you out.

[ From what he's heard, she has every right to come to the Last Drop whenever she damn pleases, but chances are it would cause things to escalate, and, well... it would suck for everyone involved. ]

[grappler]

Oh, I'm definitely not going in there when his slimy ass is there.

[she honestly doesn't even know if she can go in there at all. not that Jinx would probably turn her away from coming in when Silco was out and about.]

You don't have to worry about that.
