"Actually, the only reason I'm still here? Is to make sure you don't get yourself damn well killed. I had my way I would be out of here by now." Munkustrap rose, turning back to where he'd left the case file, his tail thrashing irritatedly behind him.

"Y'mean like you did before? Well don't think I didn't get along just fine without you then, I can do the same again." Tugger glared accusingly at his brother, "Even if you think I'm every bit as useless as he does."

Munkustrap turned to face his brother, glaring at him. "I do not think that. I'm not him."

"Then give me a bit of credit for once, you don't think I'm stupid, then stop acting like you do." Tugger reached into the pocket of his trousers and took out his earnings for the day, throwing the money down on the table in front of Munkustrap, glaring hotly at him.

Munkustrap glanced at the money, impressed, but still irritated. "Then do try not to tick him off so much. You're lucky to still be breathing." He looked back at the money. "You did well today, though, by the look of it."

Tugger snorted, "Try not to 'tick him off', what do you think this is, six years old and talkin' about a schoolteacher? Because that's what you sound like! It might have escaped your notice, but we're both adults here an' we're not gettin' any younger, are you really just gonna let him walk all over you until he finally crumbles and dies? Because y'can bet he'll hang around forever, just out of spite." a pause. "It ain't our fault our Mom left, an' she was no better than him anyway."

"Then how about 'try not to say stupid things that'll get you killed'? That make more sense to you? What the hell were you thinking pulling her into the fight with him anyhow?"

Tugger glared at his brother, "Same thing I've been thinkin' for years. You only gotta look at me to wonder how the hell I'm related to any of you."

Munkus hesitated for a moment, and then shook his head. "It isn't uncommon for siblings to look unalike, and for kits to look nothing like one of their parents."

Tugger's shrug was non-commital, "Well this ain't impossible neither, and even if we are related biologically no way am I callin' him my father, he never acted like one."

"I'm not saying you have to. I"m just saying try not to say things that'll get you killed." Munkus responded, mutedly.

"Didn't get me killed tonight did it?" Tugger retorted, "An' they say what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. I never had the chance to run away from this like you an' Mac did, so I gotta find my own way."

"You came damn close to getting killed. He'd been just a little more drunk, or just a little more sober and you may well have."

"If he was going to kill me, he'd have done it before I was old enough to fight back." Tugger reasoned, he was making this up as he went along now, but damned if Munkustrap was going to make him feel bad about something he should have done years ago, something they all should have done.

Munkus sighed. "Fine. Do me a favor though?"
