Harkens thanked Charles with a thumbs up from his sprained hand. Getting into an empty seat with him, he asked his friend,
"... Guess at this point I should say something. We're at this point in our relationship now. You want to hear a story? About a wretched little person who managed to escape justice due to undeserved luck?"

Charles just about bit into his ice cream, when Harkens spoke up.

"Go for it, Konst- Harkens. I'm all ears." lowering his cone.

"Welp, here I go..."

Tapping on the table while licking his ice cream, Harkens thought about where to start. First of all, he might have to ditch the S. Harkens attitude now. Holding out his hand, he greeted Charles with...
"Konstantin Djuric of Djuric Enterprises, at your service. Now that I've gotten that out of the way, I guess I should tell you what services we provide: drug trafficking, assassinations, racketeering and prostitution. We also dabble in the music business. My positions included Chemist and Bordello Operator. Those things go hand in hand."

Clearing his throat, Harkens reached for a glass of water to drink before asking,
"You still want me to go on?"

Charles licked his ice cream as he listened to Harkens. That was quite the business portfolio. Probably not enough to start any law firms, but good enough to be in politics.

"All this, just in Reno, huh? I didn't expect that from the Biggest Little City. Then again, all I know about Reno is that it's where celebrity careers go to die and where male cops wear khaki Daisy Dukes... But go on. This is quite the interesting tale. One of a man who has quite the background. I feel like bad company for you. What with me only ever being a thug." said the boy, laughing. "Continue, Kingpin."

Raising his eyebrow, Har-erm, Konstantin took a dab of his ice cream and continued on with his tail.
"Kingpin? Nah... Well, maybe. For the city perhaps. We had business in other places, but I took care of minor stuff in Reno mostly. Made sure the ladies were protected and doing their job, made sure someone was getting the meth recipes right. Basic stuff."

"But then there were the crimefighters. You think the ones here were bad, then you haven't seen what they could do where I came from. Still have a plate in my skull from a pipe wrapped in tinfoil."


*Sigh*

"Yet she was still one of them..."

Charles tongued his ice cream. Another guy with a crazy past and a crazy facade. How nice to know Konstantin here is more of a kindred spirit than anticipated.

"She, you say? The one who cracked your skull open?"

Tapping his head to get a dull sound from it, Konstantin said,
"Oh, her? She wasn't the one who gave me that. This was someone else. Lieutenant Whatever. Seriously, that's his name: Lieutenant Whatever."

"No, what I meant was this girl I knew. It's an old story of Boy Meets Girl, Boy and Girl go out, Boy and Girl share their moment, Boy wakes up to find his house on fire and his family dying..."

"Lieutenant Whatever. Quite the creative name." said Charles, biting into his waffle cone.

"Boy meets girl, crazy shit happens. Sounds familiar..."

The fifth month in the year is M-


"Boy meets girl, boy and girl go out, boy and girl have moment. Replace house on fire and family dying with girlfriend dying, and our stories are word for word. Provided moment means consummation, anyways." he grimaced. "You and I are pretty damn alike, man. Who woulda thought?"

Yeah, that was about it-Wait, what?

Raising an eyebrow, Konstantin took another lick of his cone before saying,
"Hold on. I didn't say she died. I meant to say that she set me up. When I woke up, I was cuffed to my bed with the smell of smoke coming from outside. By the time I got out, most of my family's goons were dead, my mom was hung and my dad was on the losing end of a knife-fight."

"Had to pull off some Tactical Stealth Action to get myself to safety, which is a lot harder than it looks when you realize that normal humans don't lack peripheral vision. Eventually I found her chopping up one of my mom's personal guards with a machete."

"So there you have it. My first love. Oh and I also escaped, got a new identity and flew my ass out of the country. I think I'm still at large."

Charles' eyes widened to the size of plates.

"Holy shit. I'm glad my first girlfriend wasn't so crazy."
