"An' I 'eard ye, boyo. I did." Her face was blank again, and her jaw clenched slightly. "I acce'ted i'." What was she supposed to do? Say 'Oh, gee, Lukas, I forgive you for insulting me over a hat, honest. We still friends?' and beg?

"Fine" he huffed back. He didnt know what to do or what to say and it irritated him. He pulled his hat down low and leaned on the railing to watch the river. He scowled at it - he hated it and he hated being uneasy. Small talk seemed to be out of the question now that she was all pouty so instead the awkward air surrounded him. "Whys it such a big deal to ya?" He finally asked. "it aint like i ment it of nothing"

She stumbled back a step. "Wha', so ye go round an' insult people who're jis' playin'?! How would ye feel if I calledje a Kraut? Over ye stealin' me 'at!? Th'n turned 'round an' said 'oh, sorry, didn't mean it!'?" She half shouted furiously, hands balled into fists at her sides.

Lukas stiffined up. She got him there. He hated being called names, but it was different wasnt it? No, not really. "Well ya shouldn' have takin me hat then should ya?!" He yelled back - it was hardly an argument, she was right he was wrong but he could never admit that, not with his stubborn pride. "An' I told ya it jus' rolled out I aint got control ovah dat!" He wasn't making any progress in this argument and he knew it. He was not a smooth talker - he could never think of anything to say to make this one easier on him so he crossed his arms over his chest and looked away in stubborn difiance. His mind was starting to wander - he pissed off Slinks which ment he pissed off Ace. What a great way to end off a week.

"I..." She shook her head at him, partly in disbelief, partly in fading anger. "Ev'ry one always 'as a choice." Her voice was little above a croak, "Always. Ye jis'..go'a make th' good ones."

He didn't move, instead just kept his stare locked on the distance. He was acting like a four year old and he knew it. Finally he answered, still not turning, but in a very calm even tone,"well sometimes people make da wrong choices - an' it aint on purpose.." He turned and looked her in the eyes, "so would ya get off me back huh?"
He eventually broke he stare and jerked his head towards the Bronx. "Maybe we should get goin'.." HIs whole deemenor had changed, no anger, irritation, or mopeing. In one instant he chose to forget it happened despite Slinks. It was his last defense to avoid more confrontation with her and everyone else for that matter. He was aware, however, that the only way it would work is if she agreed to ignore it as well, which was a long shot.

Starting, surprised, she blinked after Ace and Lukas. "Wha' th'..." Then she heard what he'd said, paled, and sprinted off in the other direction. She had an idea what this was about, and if she was right...the streets weren't all that safe.

And Lukas ran after Ace, terrified that some how he knew what had happened with him and Slinks and he was going to get pounded.
((yay the war!))
