Issue #76 [Text]

[mistconduct]

Creed attacked Cassel today. Cassel's dead.

I'm putting him in Zero and I'm going to put steps in place to make sure he doesn't get the chance to get at anyone again.

Don't really have a whole hell of a lot to say aside from that, but just..be aware, I guess. He's a dangerous creep and I don't have a full handle on him yet. Obviously.

This one's my fuck-up, guys. I'm owning it. I should've planned better for this shit.

Just..bare with me while I get the hang of this.

[Private to Dillon]

I need you to help bring him back. Please.

wait until you get into the seedy 70s.

[thelastbullet]

I meant the city, not the fellows. I don't think it can get any seedier than Luciano.

[mistconduct]

what's luciano?

cw racial slur

[thelastbullet]

Not 'what', 'who'. Charlie Luciano. New York dago, used to work for Arnold Rothstein. Real piece of work.

[Not that he could imagine Charlie ever becoming the gangster he eventually became, but he figures Chris might have heard of Rothstein, at least.]

[Chris' expression turns a bit ugly at the word, but at least he's behind text]

what the fuck man. that's shit my grandpa would get called.

cw racial slur

[thelastbullet]

[It's honestly a miracle he hasn't offended half the Barge because of this kind of thing yet, but he himself is a little surprised at the offense. It's just something you say- he gets called a fucking mick, he calls them dagos.]

Jesus, I didn't mean anything by it. Sorry.

Re: cw racial slur

[mistconduct]

it's cool. just weird. we have better insults in the 21st century, you should get some.

[thelastbullet]

Yeah? Like what?

cw; homophobic slurs and jesus this conversation

[mistconduct]

anybody call you a fag yet?

actually that's more like 80s and 90s now that I think about it

cw; homophobic slurs; all v appropriate considering the circumstances??

[thelastbullet]

What? No. That's not 'better', either.

Re: cw; homophobic slurs; I GUESS

[mistconduct]

okay

has anyone ever taught you the word 'basic' in context yet?

[thelastbullet]

No. Now's your chance, I guess.

[mistconduct]

okay.

if someone calls someone else a 'basic bitch', what do you think that means???

[thelastbullet]

Someone who isn't setting a good example for the rest of the bitches?

[This is very very strange]

[mistconduct]

kind of.

someone who's just not with it. Somebody who's obviously just trying to fit in, doesn't have enough of a personality to themselves so they have to steal other people's.

[thelastbullet]

I'm sure the American population of 1921 will be glad when I bring that with me.

[mistconduct]

You can take all the credit for that one. My gift to you.

[thelastbullet]

Yeah, thanks, Chris. You're a real pal.

[mistconduct]

you're welcome buddy.
