That Dark Alley Wedged Between the Pawn Shop and That One Bar
"Listen, no matter how far I've come, I'm not gonna deny being a little bit basic, okay? You can say I'm a sucker for the classics or something. Vampire assassin, dark alley- name a more iconic duo; I'll wait. So it's not a fight per se, more like... a semi-recreational murder? I think it counts.
Because- ah, shit, what's it called? Jose's Tankard or something like that? Because it's a cheap drink but not, like, a dive bar or anything, it's super easy to put on a pretty face, ask them on a date or business meeting or something, and then you meet 'em. With a knife. And the drinks are pretty good. They've got this special that's bourbon and strawberry, so I don't mind setting up an alibi by downing a few... yeah, I know I can just change my face and walk away, but like I said: basic. I like to do things the old-fashioned way. ...That is, the way that lets me buy another Old Fashioned."
