Day 264 - Thursday, September 11th

[Max sleeps; has as he'd thought, he achieves nothing, and he's not even a small-talk source of comfort or somebody to soothe Ash's nerves before his two AM meeting with yet another Chinese teenager. Something about Chinese teenagers seems to always spell trouble for Ash, and now he's in a mess involving no less than four of them.

But Max doesn't move. If Ash comes to see him, setting that pill counter and the note about the smoothie, he may notice he hasn't so much as shifted a finger. Ash has had to turn to painting, but there's no need to lock that room before, or even for a long while after. The only one in this house besides him is a breathing corpse.

But Shawn's ready and waiting for him at one, prepared to be decked out a wires that Ling's likely to hang him with if he finds out about them.]

[ It's not. Ling wasn't his business until they stepped into his business, either.

He checks the pockets. ]

Nothing in here, huh?

I'm not going to give you a lecture on confirmation bias, but I didn't stab your dick as a sexual thing. It was an asshole move the same way stabbing your eye would be. I don't want to fuck you so sit down and worry about the actually dangerous stuff.

[personal profile] jadedlynx 2023-04-10 04:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, you would assume that kind of thing.

[ He'll have to get access to that room himself. Too bad. It'd be nice if something was that easy.

Having Shawn for backup would make things go better. As much as he wants to rush in and make sure Max is safe, he knows they won't hold him there.

The other guy comes in as Ash leaves. On the way back to the bar, he tries Yut Lung again. ]

[ The perimeter is set around his own area, but it might be a good idea to move the Unit kids. He'll arrange it.

For now, once he makes it to the bar, he tracks down Shawn. ]
jadedlynx: commissioned; please dns (casual surprise)

[personal profile] jadedlynx 2023-04-10 04:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[ A bombing?

He'll find out once he's at the bar. Instead of going for Shawn, he'll look up the news to see if it mentions Yut Lung or how it happened. ]

[ Tch, a pain in the ass, but he isn't so unprepared for an assault be it from the cops or another gang.

His men start to receive the text. Some stay exactly where they are, others don't. Those taking care of the unit kids have alibis. Some can behave around cops. Some can't. Some are too strong to leave. Some are too weak to stay.

The kids can be moved once the cops aren't directly on them. For now, he has to grab Shawn. ]

Don't worry. After getting your territory hijacked once, you learn a few things.

But I need you to come with me. It's the downside to being the only Chinese guy here.

[personal profile] jadedlynx 2023-04-10 04:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't worry, you're just going to be riding in the car for a little bit.

How's your vision?

[personal profile] jadedlynx 2023-04-10 05:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Then let's go. If they catch me, I'm definitely being held for a long time.

[ Trusting Shawn to follow and his men to obey directions, he tosses the keys Shawn as he gets into the passenger side. ]

They hadn't set up a blockade yet, but it'll be safer if you're driving.

Chinatown. We have to play dress up before we make our next move.

[personal profile] jadedlynx 2023-04-10 05:11 pm (UTC)(link)
A little. I know where Ling's headquarters were, but I can't be sure they're still using it.

The Ling's set you up. Knew we'd meet, assumed you'd remind me of Shorter, we'd be best friends, I'd do more whore thing and sleep with you, and you'd be so into it you'd agree to rule New York and let them have Chicago.

It's the first time I've had my enemy trying to play matchmaker, too.
