    Summary

    Sully got to his feet. Dodger resisted the urge to put some distance between them. He didn't know what would happen if he tried to fight, the illusion of choice bending dangerously. Maybe he'd let him walk out. Maybe he wouldn't. But it didn't matter. At least if he played along, the collateral would be minimised.

    Summary

    'I understand how you're feeling.' Dodger lowered his voice, aware of the people still watching on, trying to listen in. 'But lashin' out at me ain't gonna help you.'

    'No?' Donny stepped closer, and Dodger fought the urge to move away as he towered over him, his heartbeat quickening. He stood his ground, as much as it trembled beneath him. 'You know what didn't help me? You.'

    Summary

    His eyes darted up, apprehensive. 'Cleo—'

    She launched herself at him. Kissing him. He pulled back immediately.

    'Cleo, stop,' he said tightly, his hand flying to her shoulder, trying to hold her off. He caught her wide-eyed gaze. 'Come on, don't.'

    Summary

    Dodger gritted his teeth, white-knuckling the radio, pressing the corner of it against his lip as the obnoxious braying grated his ears and patience alike. He knew that he shouldn't go alone, but Smithy being the one to accompany him seemed worse than getting a bollocking from Singh about it. He thought about making him go in his place, exerting what little authority he had by using his higher position over him. 

    Then there would be jokes about how he wasn't "man enough" to handle it. How he was a coward.

    Summary

    Dodger kept struggling, but Will was stronger than him. He always had been, even when they were kids. He used to always get the upper hand when they would wrestle; it was the one thing Dodger never had to let him win at, and he never minded because of the way his little brother's face would light up with triumph and pride when Dodger would pretend to beg for mercy.
