[There were new opportunities since the explosion. He knew his daughter well enough to know she'd chase the thrill and also that she would be drowning her sorrows about the stupid boy.]
Evenings mostly. Six hours of keeping track of her.
If you wish to play the friend, do so. If you prefer to remain to the shadows, do so.
[Friend would probably be easier...but he wasn't good with people and Jinx was A LOT. With how erratic she was she might be hard to keep track of, but if he just came up to her wanting to be friends (how did people even do that???) it'd seem weird given the note they'd ended their only in-person meeting on. Maybe he could...ease into the friend thing sometimes. But there's no way he's going to be able to deal with talking to her every night.]
i'm better at shadowing people than making friends, but i can try to do both based on what seems to be needed.
[It'd be weird if he went to a club or something with his rifle, wouldn't it? Maybe somewhere in this new city he could find a handgun or something easier to conceal. He preferred rifles but he'd been trained in all kinds of guns.]
would i have to find her each night or do you know where she's likely to be when you want me to start a [What was the word?] shift?
do you provide equipment or would i need to get my own?
[Ammo, mostly. His only frame of reference for security detail is during a war and a hell festival, after all.]
[He wagered Levi wasn't socialized enough to be the friend type. He could ply the kid with freedom through Shimmer, but he was holding that in his back pocket for now. He wanted to see how the pair of them reacted first, then he would alter his plan.]
Excellent, I like a man who is adaptable.
[Flattery.]
It may be a bit of both. She doesn't always tell me where she is going, but she always calls me when she's in trouble. If I know, I'll tell you. If I don't, I expect you have the skills to find her based on the noise she makes.
Tell me what equipment you need, and I will find a way to get it to you.
