"I never knew. Well, I'm not even sure if it was an NCR Ranger. I didn't know what it was. All I knew was that who and whatever it was was dead, my Ghost was gunned down, and I had taken a bullet in the wrong place."

"Aight, take a mother-blam!-in' seat."
-
She sat back down.
-
"Now, was the -blam!-er named Grant, by any chance? Have any 42's on his armour?"
-
"I barely remember," she admitted.
-
"Well you best do it, kiddo."
-
"Seriously, my memories of that day are fuzzy."
-
"Heavy drinking I assume?"
-
"No... I just... don't remember it as vividly." Dusk sighed.
-
"Lush, do you have any info on that day?" JT asked, lowering the gun.
-
"I short circuited before I was drained dead," Lush said.
-
"How in San Hell are you here then?"
-
"Apparently my twin sister is powerful. Really damn powerful," Dusk said, "She managed to revive me like she was Mercy from Overwatch."
-
"Oh don't tell me you -blam!-s got revival magic now?"
-
"I don't know. I think it's just my sister," she told him.
-
"Special snowflake then? Alright, that's all I needed. Go on."
-
"About what?" Dusk asked.
-
"About information, I got all I needed."
-
"Alright then, I better be on my way," she sighed.
-
"You say that like you'd rather stay here, kiddo."
-
"Why?" She destested. Dusk wanted to leave. She had no need to be in the house. She got desperate. She did something risky. She did a poor quality job compared to her other tasks. She got caught. Whoop-dee f**king doo.

"That sigh usually means somethin' along those lines, is all." [spoiler]Don't go yelling at me, I left this entire thing up to you. Notice how I didn't shoot? How I didn't arrest your character? I've left all the decisions in your hands and you got to this point. This could have went a lot differently - From JT killing or arresting Dusk to even training her in how to be decent at her job, if she wanted, or even JT becoming a powerful ally. Don't go bitching for your -blam!- ups. [/spoiler]

"I don't understand, what you want with me. So you either tell me, or let me leave." [spoiler]Dude. I'm not mad. She is.[/spoiler]
-
"I told you that you can leave if you want." [spoiler]Kk[/spoiler]
-
"Oh, you did? Do you have an indirect, back door?" She asked.
-
"Who doesn't? More importantly, who would I show it to anyone if I'm keepin' it for myself?"
