Mac considered him. "I wouldn't count on that," he said finally. "Feelin' more secure now, it wouldn't be as dangerous for you or me ta han' around."

Tugger snorted, "Wasn't what you seemed to think last night.

Mac shrugged, taking another drag of the cigarette. "I was angry," he said. "I said han' around, not 'et you involved in my business."

"Well I didn't excatly ask t'get involved in it last night." Tugger scowled at the memory, "Didn't seem t'bother you and Munk though, y'still treated me like it was somethin' born from my own stupidity."

Mac scowled at that. "That's because--" he cut himself off and took a deep breath as well as another swallow of coffee. "I was angry," he said again. "Don't always think straight when I'm angry. Dinna mean to involve you then either." He hated admitting he made a mistake.

There was a long pause, Tugger was trying to work out how to respond to that. Finally he simply asked, "And now?"

Mac considered for a second. "Now? Not so angry. I had some time ta think. Still think it's a bad idea to get you involved with what I'm doin' but that doesn't mean I canna talk to you sometimes."

((Has Mac turned Scottish, lol?))
"Wouldn't want t'be involved anyway." Tugger replied bluntly, "'Specially not after last night."

Mac nodded. "Probably for the best."
((Apparently yes. Still trying to figure out exactly how he says certain words...))

"I ain't you, I don't care what you do, but you wouldn't catch me wishing what I saw last night on anycat."

Mac blinked, considering. "I would hope you weren't me," he said finally. "In many ways. I would never want you to follow my pawsteps." He refrained from mentioning exactly what the other cat had done.

A long pause whilst Tugger thought this over. "What would you have me do, if y'could see me in some job?" he asked finally, "Not that I plan on doin' it coz you said so, but you and Munk seem so damn hung up on what I do, I just wonder if you had somethin' in mind."

Mac blinked at that, trying to think of something. "I don't know," he said finally. "Guess I always thought you'd grow up to be some kinda performer or somethin'. The idea seemed ta suit you." Honestly, he had never thought of his youngest brother getting a job. Not because he thought the other could not, but because the other never had.

"Not many other cats'ud think that y'know." Tugger said finally, "friend o'mine said somethin' similar the other day, but he's known me since highschool. Hardly likely t'happen though is it?" another pause as Tugger remembered something.
"The commissioner thinks I could be a cop...."

Mac choked on his swallow of coffee, nearly slamming the cup down on the bar in front of him. "What?"
