These are the docks--but watch yourself--this is Spot Conlons territory!

((open to all))
Sweetheart Snow wandered onto an unfamiliar dock and internally panicked. She was lost in an unfamiliar part of New York. Ever since she came to New York, the only part of the city she was familiar with was the Bronx where she worked as a newsgirl. She was a bit scared since she was lost and she couldn't defend herself. "Shoot." she murmured to herself.

Shoot? Spot Conlon was the undisputed King of Brooklyn and the girl on his docks wasn't one of his kids. He was watching from his perch where he was waiting for some news from Jax when he saw the girl walking like some kind of scared mouse running around his docks. What was this? Annoy Conlon week? Narrowing his eyes he moved down from his spot and tilted his head towards the girl. "What the hell you doin' here?"
It was widely known who Spot Conlon was, this kid-- wasn't from his part of town. So why was she here? Anyone wise wouldn't just come walking on the docks, so she was obviously a bit touched in the head.

Sweetheart looked at the boy in extreme fear. "I'm lost." she stammered. She was very scared. She wondered if he would jump her. If he did, she didn't stand a chance due to the fact that she can't defend herself. She had no clue who this guy was but she knew he was a newsie. She hoped that she wasn't in Brooklyn because she was absolutely horrified of Brooklyn. She had heard stories about the place and of it's leader, Spot Conlon.

Jump her? What? Jump her how? What ever madness was going on in this crazy girl's head would have annoyed the undisputed king of Brooklyn. Her stammered our reply had him rolling his eyes and looking up at the sky, praying to the virgin for some kind of patience not to toss idiots into the water. He would, he'd done worse to girls coming onto his turf like scared mice. "Where you from?" What leader did he have to ream about keeping track of their stupid girls?
Snorting the man turned his head for a moment, why did God like to torture him like this? First Red comes back and buys up his favorite spot then he loses one of his best kids to a damn restaurant and now this shit. He was already in a bad mood and didn't have the patience for taking some little bint back home. He only did it with Sweets because she was Jack's.

Sweetheart sighed. "I'm from the Bronx. I was wandering and the next thing I know I was here. Where ever here is." she said. She cocked her head to one side. "Who are you?" she asked. The boy seemed very ticked off. She hated annoying people because she always wanted to be on people's good side. Her abusive father caused her to be like that.

"You wandered here, from the Bronx?" Oh River was going to get an earful because of this one. She had the audacity not to know who he was! Granted though Spot was arrogant as he was brash, he did have a reasonable bone in him and the man was smart. He knew she might not even be a newsie, after all, the entire world wasn't populated by Newsies. He wasn't stupid, and he was glaring at her because really-- she was almost to simple to exist. The way she looked up at him with those doe eyes of hers like he was going to rescue her was completely absurd. Sighing he shook his head at her like she was nearly to absurd to be breathing, how the hell did someone like this even exist?
"I can't believe dis," he muttered shaking his head in flat out disbelief. Did River really get bints like this? For a moment he almost felt sorry for his old friend and annoyance. But there was no way he was taking this idiot back to the Bronx no matter how much she pleaded. "Go home, you're startin' to make me question my sanity."

Sweetheart was taken back. What a jerk! "And I thought my hometown was full of jerks." she said, turning around. Suddenly, she slipped and fell off the dock. She was lucky enough that she knew how to swim but now she was freezing! "Jewel is not going to be pleased." she muttered as she climbed back out. She then glared at him.

"Who the fuck is Jewel?" he didn't know any dame by that name and the idea that he would, was just idiotic. He didn't even bother to repress the smirk or the over the top way he bowed at her exit and tipped his hat. "After you.." It was mocking, and it was mean, but he didn't care. She'd fallen off the dock like he would save her, then-- as prim as you pleased walked away. "Don't let a horse kick ya on yer way out!" he called as she left, grinning to himself he pulled a smoke out of his pants and a lighter. What was it with these messed up dames?
How did someone that simple exist in the real world? Shaking his head as he lit his smoke he took a drag and turned his back to ignore the girl and head back up to his perch. She wasn't even worth having a word with River over. She was too dumb to be a newsie.

Sweetheart glared at the guy. "Who the heck do you think you are, bastard?" she was part Irish so she had a temper. "The King?" she asked mockingly. She smiled and then flipped him off as she began to walk off. She was smiling proudly to herself not knowing the trouble she caused. She hoped his ego had deflated a lot.

He snorted, she wasn't worth it. Her spouting was ignored easily as he kept walking. Asking if he was the king was almost laughable. She'd been officially dismissed by the King of Brooklyn and he didn't even rise to her barbs. As far as he was concerned she was too stupid to exist so now-- she didn't. Heading over he whistled to one of his kids, waving his hand as he walked over to the taller man and began to talk to him, nodding at that. "Oh yeah? Zeke's finally back in town huh?" Taking another drag of his smoke he started walking with the other man, leaving sweetheart to shout at nothing.
