—Makes dealing with people much easier, I found. Never was much of a people person either."

"Can't blame you there, if I didn't start in 49, I would have started after that."

He inhales deeply and holds his breath for a few seconds, counting up to four in his head before exhaling through his nose.

"Just kinda ended up picking it out out of curiosity. —

Sounds good to him either way

Jasper opens the carton of cigarettes and offers it over towards the other Alpha.

"Looks like I'm not the only one here with a habit. How'd you start?"

— What's your read on them?"

— "Firm and fair with them. Don't go spoiling them too much, otherwise they might end up with big heads."

Jasper took a long drag from his cigarette, exhaling the smoke through his nose so that he can feel the burn of the tobacco through his nose.

"How many of em are there that's here so far? —

"Gotcha, anyone look like they fit the role yet?"

He nodded and shoved the lighter he had back into his pocket, along with his box of cigs.

It'd been ages since he last saw Jun. Never in his mind did he ever think the man would resign to operating on this level. Everyone's full of surprises.

"Go for it. I've got a light too if you need it."

He plucked a cigarette from his carton, handing it over to Emile along with the lighter he still had is his hand.

"Keeping you busy, that's good. Which group is it you've got next? I've heard some of em can be a handful."

His gaze moved over to meet with Emile, a brow raising inquisitively at the other Alpha.

Is this his way is asking to bum off of him?

He's got plenty.

Does he need a light too?

Lighting up a cigarette.

Old habits sure do die hard.

"Wonder what the others looked like, you'll have to fill me in on that sometime."

That got a grin out of him, and he nodded back in response.

"I've known what we're here for and why we're here a long time. Nothing's ever gonna change that, never."

"I like keeping track of every one of those bastards I've put into the dirt. Call it a pride and joy of mine."

A soft exhale escaped, simulating amusement, as the Alpha shifted his weight.

"I keep count on my guns, you on your visor."
