[Yeah, hahaā¦what about all of the people heās shaken down for Chapelās sake? The people heās hurt? Killed? He is not just a dude, unfortunately. In fact, there is a lot going on with Wolfwood that is very, very bad. Very sinful, and thatās not even including his sexuality. But at least here right now with Ain, he doesnāt have to think about that side of his life. He can just hold hands with him and walk around the lake, talking to each other in hushed tones like theyāre talking under the blankets at a sleepover, trying to not be overheard.
Wolfwood is used to this part of it. You canāt just be a gay man in this world, not without risking being the result of a hate crime, or worse. Even gay bars arenāt really āsafeā, but often times people take what they can get. So this, at least, he can handleā¦even if it means hiding their joined hands between them until they get around to the other side of the lake.]
I promised, didnāt I? I aināt lettinā you go back home just yet.
[Night has long since fallen, but the evening is still relatively young as they head back for the car. Wolfwood has to reluctantly let Ain go when they get to the sidewalk, stepping away from him so as not to arouse suspicion. Thereās part of him that wants to keep holding his hand once they get in the car, but unfortunately he needs both to pull out of the parking lot.
In the meantime, thoughā¦the doors to the truck shut and lock, and Wolfwood turns the radio on very low so he can hear Ain over it as he turns up the heater. He lets the engine purr for a minute to heat up, glancing over at Ain out of the corner of his eye while he pulls out a cigarette to light before they get back on the road.]
Soā¦I believe you had somethinā you wanted to tell me about.
