[ something about lockpicking here ]

When I can. My mother lives out in the country and takes care of my daughter. My brother's also out there. So, I try to when I get time off.

I didn't know you had a sibling.

[ He nods and smiles. ]

Yeah, I have an older brother. He runs a liquor store.

[:O]

I thought you would be the older brother.

Really? [ He laughs. ] No, he's a lot more responsible and has had to put me in my place a few times.

[Thinks about the sibling pairs in South.]

Sometimes the younger brother has t' do that.

Yeah, I guess you can't always guess who will be that way.

Whenever I go back home, I feel like my brother has a lecture waiting for me, though.

Haha, I kinda wanna see one of those.

[ He waves his hand. ]

He's just extra strict on me.

Maybe ya really need it.

I- [ He sighs and nods. ] The last time he gave me one, I really did need to hear it.

's good to listen when you're gettin' a lecture.

Well... Sometimes I try to avoid them.

I could see that.

[Some people are not fond of being lectured.]

[ Cheeky grin. That obvious? ]

Sometimes your boss wants to yell at you for not doing things... and you just have to run.

I... Guess? When I had a boss he never yelled at me.

Then you're lucky.

[He hums thoughtfully, but does not confirm either way.]

[ He tilts his head. ]

?

[ He's just sipping his wine. ]

[ Okay, then. He won't push it, but he smiles. ]
