"I ain't him." Tugger said shortly, folding his arms across his chest, he was standing steady now, the intensity of the arguement having sobered him up, "No matter what I'm drinkin'." he was determined to believe that much, even if Macavity didn't.

Mac finally turned his gaze back to his brother, looking him over. "Just be careful, alright? And I don't mean just 'cause of that, the streets aren't safe this time of night and if you're less aware, it's even more dangerous."

Tugger couldn't work out if this was genuine concern or Macavity trying to find a new argument to compensate for somewhat letting go of the original. "Speak f'yourself." he said after a moment, after all, this only had to do with being out late, not drink.

Mac glared at him and took a breath. It really was concern. "I know how ta keep myself safe," he said. "And I am damn aware at all times." He didn't want to admit he was part of the reason it wasn't safe himself. "Just... be careful, alright? All the time, but especially at night. Knockin' over the can like that when you came in? Huge mistake. Be aware of things like that."

"Yeah, well it ain't like I go about climbin' walls all the time." Was Tugger's sulky response, "But I was tryin' t'be careful by not wakin' him." as usual, the 'him' needed no decription, "Besides, I knocked over the can in my own backyard, it's hardly the streets."

"The streets include cat's backyards," Mac informed him. "It's still not safe there. Just, if you're goin' ta do things like... this... be careful."

"Fine," Tugger glared at his brother, "I'll stop goin' out and spend my evenin's cooped up here. Would that make y'happy?"

"No!" Mac said and flinched at how high his voice had gotten, glancing toward the doorway, ears flickering. "No, I don't want that, I want you ta be aware and careful, okay?"

"Yeah well my careful obviously ain't enough f'you." Tugger couldn't back down so easily.

"Because it's not bein' careful at all!" Mac hissed.

Mac's ear flickered. "No, because I'm worried about you, alright?"

"Yeah," Tugger muttered, still not fully accepting of his brother's concern after his words earlier, "worried I'll turn out to be him."

This time Mac kept a lid on the snarl he wanted to give. "No," he said, voice low and tight. "Because at this point I'm more worried about you gettin' shot on your way home."

"Why would I get shot? I know this ain't a friendly city, but it ain't like there are snipers on every corner." Tugger shook his head at Macavity, "An if this is a ruse t'stop me goin' out or havin' a drink, I'm too old t'believe in the bogeyman."
