"You know, it really was," Connor said. "Anyway, it's worth a shot t' talk to him. We just run like hell if it turns out he hasn't found it in his wee shriveled heart t' forgive me."

Brandi shook her head. "No. You run like hell, I laugh."

"You're such a good friend," Connor said. "This is why I never worry when you're around."

Brandi flashed him a rare grin. "So when are we doing this?"

"Why not tonight? Get it over and done with," Connor said.

Brandi nodded. "Sounds good to me."

"Well he did knock my tooth out, so maybe we're even?" Connor suggested. (I feel like one of the great secrets of the internet has been uncovered! XD) Aiden grinned at Connor's confession. "Need a hand? Or I could stay here and hold down the fort. No matter."

XD I did not know that until today either!) "Why don't you come. It should be quiet enough here for a few hours anyway," Connor said. He'd feel better about meeting the potentially still unhappy Johnson with both Aiden and Brandi with him.

Aiden nodded. He pulled on his still-damp coat. "So where do we find him?"

"I know a place where he might be," Anya replied thoughtfully. "Whenever he comes into town, he likes to spend a bit of time at the Flying Fox Inn, on the west side of town...where the food is greasy, the beds are lumpy, and the women are loose," she finished with a laugh. "I would bet my knife that Johnson will be there."

"Sounds likely," Connor said, grinning. "We'll just have to let the girls working know before we go."

Laela arrived at the Grainne around dusk, dressed in a deep blue dress with a dropped waist. Inside, she found Connor accompanied by his Chinese-looking friend and the lady bootlegger, whose names she had not yet learned. There was another young woman with them who she did not recognize. "Hello," she said to them and started toward the piano.

"Laela!" Connor said. "Just the person I wanted to see." He scooted around the bar to join her. "We're going to be out for a few hours or so tonight, so if anybody comes lookin' for me tell 'em I'll be back in tomorrow, alright?"

Laela nodded in understanding. She opened her mouth to ask where they were going but then decided against it and instead said simply, "Good luck."
