He assumed a big bottle of coke might be just the right thing for this little thug here. "And I reckon I prefer blokes, most of the time. Women... Not that often that I find one that truly sparks something. I don't tend to take them home."

He pushed the bag over to him. "There's a few different sandwiches in here. I don't know your preferences yet, so take your pick."

That said, Barty continued on from the prior topic. "I did cuff some girl to a lantern in an alley a week or two back. I left her with her panties in her mouth, but I didn't bother taking her home."
