Yeah. That's what I was afraid would happen.

I'm used to hunting with a pack. But this ain't my pack.

From:

madaboutit

[Sweeney's quiet for a moment.]

That was my thought--when he told me you were used ta huntin' with wolves.

[He decides not to included the 'when Lark asked if I was going to go as a dog' part.]

There's a big difference when you're the alpha, even if yer the one on two legs.

[Which he most certainly won't be.]

You gonna be ok, sharin' the field? [With another, but more importantly:]

With another marksman?

From:

weaponwithoutpurpose

Yes.

Lark said he wanted me to lead. He wanted to test my strategy.

From:

madaboutit

Then you just let me know where an' when, an' I'll be followin' yers.

[He takes half a breath.]

I still got my times in service, if that helps ya with that.

[Sweeney has calls and gestures catalogued on instinct, ready to fall in step for their dance.]

From:

It ain't you I'm worried about, brother.

[It's the pack. Lark's pack. They're an unknown.]

From:

madaboutit

Think Lark'll give ya a hard time?

[Sweeney doesn't know anyone else is supposed to be coming. He's been given the impression it will just be the three of them, which was one reason the invitation was so weird.]

From:

weaponwithoutpurpose

I don't know. He's got his own mind about shit. And he's used to being in charge.

From:

madaboutit

But not of you. An' I sure as fuck won't bend the knee ta him.

[There's a strong sense of 'I haven't before, I won't start now'.]

From:

weaponwithoutpurpose

Good.

Then we'll do shit our way. Two legs.

Anyone else is just support, the way it fucking should be.

From:

madaboutit

It'll be fun.

[Sweeney's increasingly confident.]

You want me ta bring or prep anthin' specific?

[He doesn't know what it would be, but it doesn't hurt to ask.]
