He's just continuing to read, not bothered by the deer sleeping against him.

Castello has joined SINDER! ⠀ ♡ to know if he’d swipe ⠀⠀⠀ 𝙡𝙚𝙛𝙩 or 𝙧𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 for you. ⠀ ↻ to swipe 𝙧𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 on him

What's in it?

That sounds pretty good actually Family recipe?

He'll hold him to his word then

What is the spider doing? He better not be making a mess. Castello just cleaned the kitchen an hour ago

Well that's good to hear at least

He flashed a toothy grin "You don't worry about what I do. That's for me to worry about" He's going to do what he does best

"that's an easy fix. Don't you worry about anything." He stood up as he took out an already cut cigar, lighting it. "Yeah, you don't gotta worry about anything."

"What happened? Who made you cry?"

"Do you want to talk about it?"

"You better?" And he's probably made it worse. Again, he's good at making people cry and beg. Not the opposite.

He'll just sit with her for awhile Let time pass.

Castello looked at her, he sighed as he walked over. He offered a handkerchief as he rested his hand on her head. He didn't say anything, but he hoped this was at least something to quell her He's not very good at comforting

He's finishing his cigar and throwing out the butt of it. "Anyways. I think it's time I left." He looked at her "Give me a call if someone gives ya a tough time. They'll be gone and won't bother ya no more."

He's trying to be better. "Alright alright." He's getting up as he stretched out, he's taking out a small notepad, writing down his number "Don't lose this. I'll try to answer within 24 hours. I can't promise that though."

"I'm guessing construction wouldn't be a good fit..." He took a long drag, closing his eyes. "Listen. I ain't going soft. But if ya need help, I got ya covered. But if you tell anyone else I'm doing this, you'll end up..." He stopped himself, a guilty look on his face "Just don't tell anyone."

He avoids her gaze "Business been slow?" He already knows the answer, but he wants to know the answer from herself..why else would she ask him if he's heard about a job.

Comes with the business. Also inner turmoil within him, insecurities and what not. "Yeah yeah. No need to get sentimental on me." He grabs a cigar, pulling out a cutter and a golden lighter. He cuts the cigar in a v cut before lighting it.

"I... don't know anywhere that's hiring actresses. I work in hit work mostly, construction if that's slow." He handed her a wad of cash "Here. Don't leave empty handed. It'll make me feel bad. It's the least I can do." He's not going to say thank you, he hasn't said those words in a long time

He huffed "I enjoy it. I refuse for some oaf to disrespect it. Back in the day he would've gotten an even worse beating, maybe a trip to the morgue. The hospital is where he deserves to be in." He rolled his shoulder, moving it forward to crack it. He winced in pain before collecting himself.

"not really." He takes a short drag "Mind if I get a swig of my own rum?" He's tapping at his flask before tapping his ashes into an ashtray. "If you don't mind of course."

"The bastard changed the music. I was enjoying some classical music while smoking and drinking. Can't a man enjoy some music while he relaxes? It ain't like anyone was enjoying that techno or whatever they call it. All annoying shit in my opinion." *He huffed as reached for another cigar*

"You any fan of classical music at all?" How surprising, the mafioso enjoys classical music. He takes a long drag "I just find it a lot more... enjoyable." It's hard to keep up the same game for so long, especially for Castello, he likes to change it every now and again

Castello had gotten into yet another fight, it wasn't an unusual thing for him to end up in fights. He watched as Eevi bandage him up. His eyes narrowed "You know you don't have to do this. I ain't hurt that bad. You should see the other guy"

As if Castello preferred the act he did. Castello blew out smoke as he nodded. The snake has seen this act a million times, Angel wasn't the first or the last. He just sat in silence for a few minutes before piping up "You enjoy music?"

He narrowed his eyes as yawned, his fangs being shown off as he stretched again "Well I should, shouldn't I?" He started to button up his shirt, looking at himself in the mirror "But I don't see that we'll cross paths again, not for a while or on these terms again."

He's taken aback by this She's left the snake speechless

" I used to be a people-pleaser. Till I kept getting 𝙛𝙪𝙘𝙠𝙚𝙙 𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙧. "

"You enjoying my rum? Shits premium. Fuck almost everything I get is nice, helps I have a connection in another ring who can go to Sicily and get my shit." He's picking up the spider, and sitting down, placing him down to where Castello is comfortable.

"Yeah yeah cmere." He's pulling the spider in close as he continues to smoke.

He shrugs "Eh fuck it, who am I to tell someone no to fun"

He raised an eyebrow "What exactly are you suggesting?" He's taking a long drag

He's lighting a cigar "You taste any of it before it went down?" He takes a long drag "I get it though, it's just one of those days"

He's reaching into his suit and took out his flask, tossing it to him "Rough day?"

Alright alright I got my flask on me Here hope you're fine with rum.

Mafia soldier. That's funny, even mafioso's smoke cigars, at least I do.

You want a cigar?

A distraction?

He holds the mantis as he sits down. His forehead resting on Jae's shoulder, pulling him closer to the snake. "You're really warm."

Castello doesn't mind it at all "You don't mind if I smoke right?" He's pulling out a cigar and lighter
