Vigilantism didn't appeal much to Nicoli. Killing off these men she despised would come with a lot of drama that Nico did not want to deal with. The gang would consider themselves at war with his, and that wasn't even the worst of it. He had to look at things from a cold, logical perspective. She could hunt them down herself if she wanted their heads that badly!
The next time they walked in on his turf though, their lives were fair game. Nic was trained well in the art of torture, and quite liked to dish it out where it was deserved. He'd get his ten grand back, plus interest.
On the other hand, he understood how she felt. An eye opened so he could look at her, the maliciousness fierce in her gaze until she got on to the topic of her job. What she told him didn't come as too much surprise. The skill she demonstrated with salon tools was impressive. She was worthy of being in a more top notch location, and now he knew why she wasn't. His response to that would be, why not move away? Nico knew why she couldn't, though. That was an expensive process. Expensive wasn't in her budget. "If you need a loan to open your own place, I'm your man. Seeing my face frequent your shop would get you some customers," he offered with a light shrug. She had a bad record, he was guessing, that some people were turned off about. Not everyone in the city could possibly be that dense, though. Her business would thrive, he was confident about that.
Nico joined into her toast, silently of course. His raised glass was swallowed quickly, then he decided he was finished for the night. One of his large mitts rubbed over his face, letting the stubble scratch his palm as he gave thought to the sleeping arrangements. There were plenty of options in his ginormous living space. She was right that she shouldn't be left alone, though. Sleeping could be a danger to her after that hit to the head. Thank heavens they didn't kill her with that damn crowbar.
"You can use my bed, I'll be nearby on the hide-a-bed that's across the way," he decided. Half of his room was setup like a place you could lounge with the TV, or a good book. The little sofa could transform into a nice little bed he could use. The chair was scooted back as he stood up, eyes settling on the girl as he did. "You're not going to die, even though that would make my life easier." His dark humor was followed up with a stifled yawn. "You're a tough little lady, a survivor," he observed, making an effort to lift her spirits a little. "You hold onto that and you'll come out on top. The fight to get there is a brutal one, but you can do it." She did not have the benefit of having a rich family, but there were plenty of other boundaries he had to leap over to get where he was today. On some level, he could relate to Sasha's struggles. Besides, it was amazing to see the less fortunate become something great. It would make all their doubters look foolish.
To act as her crutch once more, he made himself available to her to hold onto when she was ready to stand up. Once she was tucked in, he could get all the bottles put away and get himself to sleep as well.
