You and Thomas are walking through the graveyard. Thomas has his hands behind his back as he walks as you have your hands in your pockets as you look around at the scenery not saying a word. You stop to see a woman weeping in another woman's arms. She notices you both and walks over dropping her purse. She yells at the both of you as she slaps Thomas in the temple making it bleed by her ring then slaps you in the face as you sigh as she continues to hit yours and Thomas's chest while sobbing.
She finally stops as the other woman comes round. The woman that was hitting you walks back over to the grave as Thomas gives the lady some money to help with the troubles of the boy that they have lost because of a certain Peaky Blinder. She then walks away as you both turn around and walk off.
Sunday came around and you walk to the building the inspector had said. Walking up the stairs you remain quiet. Thomas behind you as a pass a man. You make it to a short hallway and see the inspector waiting in it. You walk towards him, Thomas following behind and stop once you get close.
"You might think this is a curious place for me to suggest a meeting. But, the surprises have only just begun. You look a little unsteady, Ms. L/n and Mr. Shelby. Take a seat." The inspector hums as he lets you into the room. Once in he closes the door and you look towards the table to see Irene and the man you never got the name of. Also known as the Black Lion. You sigh.
"You're working together. Blowing up the Garrison was your idea. You who chose us." Thomas mutters as you scoff
"Something funny?" The inspector questions you.
"Yeah, it's funny, I thought the Fenians had a policy..." You start off
"Enough." Irene cuts you off
"...of not mixing the personal with politics." You ignore her
"I said enough." She interrupts again as you stand in front of the table. Thomas standing beside you
"I think I'll decide on what is enough." The inspector states
"Who's in charge here then? Who's in charge? Let me understand this. You answer to an agent of the Crown? Very interesting..." You trail off
"Perhaps we can stick to the agenda." The inspector chips in
"Who's agenda?" You question
"There is a form of words here..." The inspector continues
"Who's words?" You question again
"Arrogant bastard..." the man grumbles as you glare at him
"I'm not accustomed to being spoken like that." You spit out
"Just come to order." The inspector sighs
"I am here to listen, not to the fucking infantry." You state
"Enough! Jesus. There...some weeks ago, Mr. Shelby and Ms. L/n carried out a military mission on behalf of pro-treaty Republicans here in Birmingham—" The inspector shouts
"You...working for the King..." You tease pointing to Irene
"There is a unique political situation." She argues
