It had been a restless couple of days since LawnMower had moved his operation and trusted family to the great city of Philadelphia. As if by way of perverse congratulations a rogue had set up in one of his districts, swiftly ended thankfully, then just hours later thousands of Tyler’s crew had descended across the cities and the sound of constant gun fire and stepping over of dead bodies had once again become the norm. But heck at least it kept everyone sharp and gave him some respite from Peroxide’s constant knocking at his door with a new hair-brained scheme. He must get his trusty right hand an office of his own he briefly mused to himself.

 

As Tyler’s goons had diminished in their number significantly LawnMower had taken this moment to call his family together  in to the recently opened headquarters. They had obliged unquestioningly and sat in the new HQ bar chatting amongst one other excitedly as to what they had all been called there for. le_clochard and @Veliotsis were sat at the bar with a couple of empty glasses next to each of them already, good going LawnMower thought as he’d  seen them arrive no more than 15minutes earlier! Around a smaller tale Arya_Stark and Espresso were sat together with a  more serious looking conversation flowing between them, Lawn knew what that was about, but that would be revealed a little later. Glancing across to the corner by the doorway he saw @Ptheven and Purser indulging in a couple of dubious looking shots, any excuse for those guys! Tonight however was a bigger occasion than even just his family and so at the head table his most respected elders were sat, Orange and MonsterHair, flanked by bobbi in quiet discussion whilst Princesa and Lunara were sat in far more animated conversation with a few of the other old city uppers. Even though this was a new city for him, those ties would stay strong he had no doubt.

 

Lawnmower glanced towards the door awaiting one last yet crucial person, goddamn Peroxide he’ll be late for his own funeral one day he mused to himself. Well sod it, he thought, he’d waited for 20 minutes already and Peroxide knew he’d been off for a meeting with a mysterious man already. LawnMower had been sure to let Peroxide know that much in case the meeting hadn’t gone so well.

 

LawnMower picked up his beer and drained the remnants before glancing across to le_clochard, knowingly his trusty friend clinked his own empty glass down hard on the bar and motioned to everyone to quieten down. LawnMower nodded  to him gratefully before standing up from his bar stool and looking around the room.

 

‘Thank you all for coming back here for a couple of hours today, your willingness to do such things is another small part of how we’ve come so far’

‘Some of you know that my family line goes back many generations, they’ve seem many things, different regimes, friends come and go and as a result numerous proud stories have been passed down over those generations, as well as some less remarkable ones too of course!’

‘Tonight however is the proudest chapter in all of those stories’

Taking a slug from his fresh beer he continued

‘A couple of hours ago I had a meeting with a very important powerful person, rarely seen outside of the shadows…. We discussed a couple of things but ultimately there was only one way the conversation was going to end.

He tapped at the bulge in his chest pocket and everyone nodded knowingly. Typically at this moment he saw Peroxide sneaking in and sit at the bar next to le_clochard. Anyway he continued.

 

‘I now stand before you proudly as Godfather of this fine city!’

 

After the inevitable applause and cheering had subsided somewhat LawnMower looked proudly upon his crew.

 

‘As a result of this I’ll shortly be handing over the day to day running of the family to Arya_Stark, and I know you’ll all give her the same if not better support than you’ve given me. Of course a few of you will be staying in my close circle within my HQ and I’ll get to you each individually.’

 

‘This is an exciting time for us and our city and there’ll be further announcements in coming days to outline more plans. Thank you all for helping me achieve this’

 

‘Salut!’

After Godfather LawnMower finished his speech le_clochard stood up and asked for attention.

Congratulations sir with achieving the title of Godfather of Philly. I'm looking forward to make something beautiful out of this wonderful city with these fine people we have over here!
I also want to congratulate Arya_Stark with the opportunity to run her own family!

le_clochard raises his empty glass,

Salut!

After his little speech he moves to TastelessGentleman and orders 2 more drinks for them.....

As always life of crime was busy, no rest for the wicked. bobbi had been flying back and forth between Chicago and Philadelphia in order to help out with the move and every detail that came with it. Now she sat here in the newly built bar with all the other important figures. As always it was a pleasure being able to sit amongst people like this relaxing and drinking. 

But this wasn't only a social event. bobbi had known this day would eventually come and LawnMower was ambitious she knew that. It all ha been taken care of earlier, she had heard the stories. But in order for it to really feel real she had to hear her close friends speak the words. The words of a Godfather. This made her proud. No one deserved it more.

"- Being Godfather of a historical strong city like Philadelphia is not something to take lightly. There's going to be hard work and a lot of dedication put into it. Blood, sweat and tears. If there's someone I'm sure will be able to step up to the plate it's you. You've been a loyal and hard working friend to me as well as Chicago. You deserve this position and I'm sure we can expect great things in the rebuilding of Philadelphia."

bobbi raised her glass in celebration of her friend. She knew this was again one of those moments she would have a hard time remembering the next day. Someone not as lightweight as Peroxide would surely be able to retell the evenings event in the morning.

"Psst. Boss."  Reginald, Peroxides most trusted, and slightly less stupid Bodyguard prodded Peroxide to try and wake him.

Peroxide opened one eye and looked up at the rather large man.

"Reginald. I swear the next time you fucking prod me, I will fucking prod you. In the face. With a big brick. Very hard, okay?

Now, those who know Peroxide, know that he loves to sleep and doesnt like interruptions. The henchman stood and nodded slowly at Peroxide, then began to speak.

"You know what today is? LawnMower is taking Godfather today and everyone is going to be there!" Peroxide raised his finger to his mouth and silenced Reginald. A split second after he made a grimace

"Cor fuck me that don't half smell rotten! Who was over last night? It was Keypunch's sister? Or was it @Pullution's  mother? Must of slipped one of them a couple of digits last night. He proceeded to move the hand far away from his mouth. Reginald and the other henchmen chuckled.

"Right! You and the other Flamongos kindly fuck off for a while so I can get ready for this bollocks then and Ill meet you outside, have the motor running you filthy shlag! Dont come in moaning Im late then not have it ready and make us further later, you hear!? And send a clean three piece in on the way out! Better make some effort for old LawnMower's big do!" Reginald nodded, turned around and marched the rest of the Flamongos out. Flamongos was what he called them when he wasnt in the best of moods and just plain mongo's wouldnt cut it to describe them all. 

45 minutes goes by and the front door came flying open, off the hinges almost. Peroxide came strolling out , smiled at the people tending to the already neat and tidy bushes. He loved a neat anf tidy bush old Peroxide did. After all the good mornings and hello's he quickly jumped into the motor and the disappeared off to LawnMower's big bash. To pass some time Peroxide decided to read FearlessJ's articles in the paper on the way, and was in stitches the whole way there. After a short while they arrived and he jumped out the car, and burst through the front door. But quietly, hoping LawnMower wouldnt notice him two hours late. He looked around inside, spotting some familiar faces. Bobbi, Orange was sat in a corner licking a window, someone must of cleaned it recently. Tasteless and le_clochard were at the bar. All of a sudden something caught his eye. The best looking pair of tits he'd ever lay eyes on. He got a bit closer, only to discover it was just Princesa and Lunara sat very close together talking. Whoops

 

After LawnMower finished his speach, Peroxide grabbed the mic and began to talk.

 

Ladies, Gents and Phteven, whatever you are. 

LawnMower's ancestors and mine go back quite some time, and have worked together manier times! Today is a brilliant day, I know he will do everyone proud and work hard, and well!

 

To the future of Philly!

That's always reassuring to hear that the Left Hand is locked in the shed, make sure you throw in some food and water.

Congratulations to you Lawnmower! I see a bright future with you and your crew(s) in Philadelphia!

Joseph was in town for check out the business districts of PH.There wasn't anything much just a couple of old building's catching flies for profit.It was bad for him.His plan was getting something different for his mother as a gift.Felt sorry for the city.When he got in the one of the stores,he didn't find anything interesting but  the owner was kind enough to offer him a cup of coffee.They had a conversation with her as they drink their cups.Lady said that someone in the town just became the Godfather and she was happy for it because she was hoping it will uplift the city for a better living.''Don Mower'' lady said.''You mean Don LawnMower?'' Joseph asked.''Maybe i don't know the name properly but it sounds better.'' said lady.''Do you know where they are going to make the announcement for it ?'' Joseph asked.''I heard that in their HQ.'' lady said.Joseph gave his thanks to the lady for the coffee and the news as he took his fedora and push it against his chest then walked out to find where that HQ is.''When i was new in these streets ,i was going to get in his crew but problems came out and i didn't.Maybe i need to feel sad for it maybe not.I'm in a good crew now but i really need to congratulate that man.'' thought Joseph.When he got to the HQ there was no one around ''I'm late.'' he said in his head and his head dropped for a sign of despair.To his left he found a notebook where the receptionist's table at.He took out his pencil and wrote on the piece of paper.Left the HQ with thinking that LawnMower would see that.

I sincerely  congratulate you for you new position sir.Maybe you won't remember me and there is a strong chance you don't remember . It is okay.I just want wish you luck for improving this city -Joseph

After silently spectating LawnMower's Godfather honouring at the HQ from a corner table with a Irish whisky in hand. Varga felt some genuine happiness, as he knew this was a great achievement for LawnMower, the Yuzu crew and Philly as a whole. There wasn't anyone more fit for the role of leading this blank canvas of a city to prosperity and was glad to be apart of the rebuilding, he thought. 

Varga raises he glass.

"To Godfather Lawn, and the city of Philly! Salut"
