Friends, 

So little is happening in this world that some of my lineage took it upon themselves to try and liven things up.  The results were spare and inconsequential.

And so it is that a realisation dawned.

Things are quiet yes, but this means that things are being managed well.  

To make things Rory, I will summarise.

It's time to go straight,  My son will "play the game" and look for a family.  In the family, he will be honest about his lineage but also about his intentions - which are as honest as our way of life allows.

My friends, I look forward to an altogether different relationship with you and yours.

Good luck laddeh. I know this is going to be widely ignored but I can speak from experience when I say that when you put your mind to something and start being an upstanding member of the community... your CL's bank account bulges nearly as much as the HQ bar.

Thanks Jono.  Shall I wait until you're able and then join you?

You'd be waiting a while there Kuku.

Things got a little stale, so your pop went around capping people's salaried bodyguards? On my street, we played stickball and knocked over fire hydrants when we were bored.

Yes, this is a place for the darkest of the black sheep, but indiscriminate shooting leads to nothing but 2 deaths where there should have been none. No grudges here... it wouldn't be right to hold you responsible for your father's mistakes, would it? Welcome back to this thing of ours. I wish you the utmost success in your straight and narrow crooked endeavours.

we have all been waiting for you, and looking forward to do business with you in time as my father tailored your acestors crest and suit at the past.

Anna falls down into a dead faint at the latest words from the Kuklinski line. Coming back into conciousness several minutes later, she manages to add a few words.

It's both surprising and refreshing to hear that you intend for the next of your bloodline to "play" this thing of ours, rather than commentate. I look forward to it. I admit that most of the words I've read from your ancestors have brought great amusement, but you're clearly creative and you do know the ways of this world well, so it'll be interesting to see firsthand what you can actually do. Good luck to you and yours.

Those of the Kuklinski lineage that have actively participated in This Thing of Ours have historically been valued members, or at least the individuals that my own ancestors have worked with.

I personally wonder how well your line would actually do without the false self important ego it carries around.

You have in some respects some very valuable attributes however the main issue has always been the ego takes over and wrecks anything promising. You probably have an awful lot of making up to do with the powers that be before anyone would be willing to take a strong chance on you.


Best of luck though with it

Isiah, I've said the same thing time and time and time again.

I too hope that one day this man will see the light and just let go of this false persona of self importance.
