"You'll think about it?" Des was going to let it lie there, ignoring the fact that Kacey seemed to be walking away from him and following after her pointedly.  "Better do more then that.  Damn well more."  He had had similar conversations like this with Kacey before, but was getting a little tired of feeling like he wasn't being listened to.  Desmond understood the importance of defined leadership and status in a gang like this, but being heard was just as important.  especially when it involved Cin.  He wasn't going to get brushed off again just because Kacey didn't feel like having this conversation right now.

"Listen, I've seen enough of your work with this crew to know your legit.  Hell I've done enough work for you to see that.  But Cin?  Shes young yeah, but she's no idiot.  And she ain't your sister either.  So stop shafting her like she is and start treating her like a member of this damn gang and not an accessory."  He didn't raise his voice, dropping it instead and speaking in a tone little more then a growl as he glared at Kacey from beneath the brim of his hat.  

"You might've gotten away with that shit when it was Laura you were kicking in the dirt, but Cin isn't gonna take it lying down.  You ain't blood to her, and sooner rather then later she's gonna walk.  And if she walks I walk.  And you'll be out two riders cause you can't stand having someone talk back to you with good reason.  Hell, solid shame right there."
