Thierry knew that Min would be right. It's purposely why he kept the scruff on his face. Even in his late teens he would have been mistaken for younger. The scruff definitely helped him get beer without getting carded and even more so, it made his life easier not having to worry about shaving every day like others did.

He gave her a wink.
"You sure about 'dat?" Thierry asked, "I mean, James is campaigning but he not taking the same root. I hear he talking to a lot of people. One on one. Either way, they both set for making 'tings real interes'ting, non? And I dunno. You can be friends wit' someone and know they got what it take but 'den see someone else can do it too, maybe even betta. Don't know tho'. Never been a big fan of all this politic. A lot of promises coming from people and favors cashed in. 'dis why my family jus' happy wit' 'de way 'tings are." He was pretty content too for the most part, but his family was now taking a smaller role in his life. His new life now had the pack and the pack was . . . politics.
He licked at his lips and continued, "Guess we see how 'de rest of 'dis campaign go. You hear any'ting from Bushara's camp? I see her talking to some people but she don't seem to be as big of a presence as James or Pax. Maybe she gonna be a dark horse and take it right from under them."
