Being that Victoria is not trying to create any enemies or ill feelings she approaches Ragnarok.

Mr _Ragnarok_ my intentions were not to create an argument with anyone.    My deceased Mother has spoken about the people you mentioned her but I really don’t know them.  Seems we have a common ground when you speak of treacherous people.  I just looked around listened to people and made an assessment. Forgive me for misinterpreting the Hierarchy that exists here.  I should have said Godfather-Chairman (Capo di tutti i capi) instead of Bosses.

Again I reiterate, although I have experience the turmoil’s you speak of here where I come from it’s not a “normal way of life”.

I am truly sorry that the values I live with on a daily basis has in some way offended you, but hardly sorry they were worth sharing.

She extends she hand hoping he will accept.

She extends she hand hoping he will accept.She extends she hand hoping he will accept.

Don't do it rag, she look like one of them treacherous fucks they were talking about.

Polo sighs at the back and forth.

"Professionalism is important, and currently a few of you are lacking this. VictoriaStone has a valid point regarding This Thing of Ours, and it does come down to respect, even as you stare down each other's barrel. Those who don't have respect for others, especially those they kill, will end up dying alone."

Polo walks over to VictoriaStone, and shakes her hand (if she allows) for the sake of the others.

"Never apologize for your ideals or values. For they will never apologize for theirs."

Polo turns to look at Premeir.

(Quote):"Yeah it's called a union that's why we got out of that shit, and got into a life of crime, fuck equal say, voting is for congress, solve disputes with the gun. The gun has the final say, vote who has the most guns. Where you came sounds silly"

"Your lack of understanding of weaponry is apparent. Gun's don't kill people, People kill people. Guns are tools. People use those tools to inflict harm unto others. But what makes them actually useful are the People themselves. Guns don't have opinions, they don't have feelings, and they don't feel guilt. People do. People kill on a whim all the time, and they kill for various reasons. I'd like to believe that we are on a higher intellectual level than that of the tools we utilize...."

Polo just looks at Premeir when he says that, but turns to the others.

"We people use Reason... most of the time. And because of it our actions are usually premeditated with some sort of attachment. That makes it all the more important that we work together and benefit as a whole, then allow ourselves to become barbarians with only death in mind. I, again, would like to believe we are better than that."
 

Victoria takes Polo’s hands and gives it a tight grip.

I understand fully what you are saying.  By no means was I apologizing for my values just sorry by sharing they offended some.

Let’s get out of here maybe go have a drink or something.

Victoria slowly starts to walk off.

"Professionalism is important, and currently a few of you are lacking this.

Like i said before, Professionalism is for the unions and managers at the docks, i dont think i need to even tell you what we do here, or what is done in the name of people, so lets not pretend professionalsim is anything. Fuck you.

"Your lack of understanding of weaponry is apparent.

The moment premeir heard that line he stopped listening turned and walked away

This mother fucker over here

Victoria slowly starts to walk off.

Don't go to far with your made up value you having ass.

Walks back quickly

oh and like yall said, I mean no disrespect

Also I heard the last bit of your speech

allow ourselves to become barbarians with only death in mind

no you're talking my language baby, so whats the plan??

Having won this battle without spilling a drop of blood, Polo walks off victoriously with VictoriaStone, who was looking vividly vivacious this fine evening. A simple smirk and a nod was all he needed for his closing argument. 

"Victoria, my new found friend. I know a wonderful place in Philly for a drink, care to join me?"

I see you took my fuck you advice, very nice. You didn't win anything, you came out here throwing your silly words like professionalism and respect out, but got shown its a dog eat dog world, and like i keep having to reference my previous words of protect your neck at the dinner table, the only thing you won is permanent place in the kid table.

vividly vivacious this fine evening

Does a double take

Nah my man

Victoria stops Polo’s in his tracks

I think we should check out Hollywood, LA.  I know a place there where the moonshine if you light it a blue flame comes up.

Mr. Polo's brow raises slightly. His curiosity in this blue flame was apparent.

"Well... I am not one to deny the invitation of a lovely lady. Lead on."

Everybody knows there isnt good moonshine in LA

Gollum scurried out from the Back alley and overheard Premeir say that the moonshine in Los Angeles wasnt good.

What do you means the Moonshines not good in Los Angeles!? Its the best! VictoriaStone dont listen to him he doesnt know! Gollum makes the best Moonshine in Los Angeles better than Voodoo. You have to trys it its perfectsies! 

Gollum, What i meant to say was not moonshine for the likes of these fucks

I understand fully what you are saying.  By no means was I apologizing for my values just sorry by sharing they offended some.

Your views aren't what offended me. The way you brought them up and passively aggressively took shots at people is what is offensive. Especially since respect is so high up on said personal belief system, there was no need for any of that extra shit.

VictoriaStone has a valid point regarding This Thing of Ours, and it does come down to respect

Victoria did have some points, as counter intuitively as they were brought up in my opinion. But I don't think it's wise to dismiss Mr. Prem's perspective either, as the man does have his own valid points as well.

Victoria tries to put an end to this but some just won’t let it rest

Passively aggressively took shots at people is what is offensive. Evidently you haven’t listened to what has been said on this platform as well as in other parts of the city.

To be completely honest all have heard about are dishonest, disloyal, lying, conniving backstabbing people.  I sure hope that this isn’t the case. I sure hope there’s much more.

If this is what you are referring to I stated a fact.  Your offense shouldn’t be with me.  I didn’t create this image of people; I learned it when I arrived on these streets.

One more thing

Don’t get me wrong.  I have heard some good things about some people, but right now the negative is certainly outweighing the good.
