Braddock smiles at Gretchen's admission. He'd felt the same way for a long, long time.
"I love you, too, Gretchen, and I want us to have this." Braddock says, moving closer to her.
"You're right, Manhattan is a bust. I talked to a few people there recently and that place gives me a bad vibe. As much as I'd like to use New Orleans as a base of operations, the chances of runnin' afoul of Lyta and her people are still really good, even if we don't do anything really bad." Braddock says.
"So, I vote that we look at another location. Chicago and Baltimore both sound great, as does New Jersey. St. Louis might also be an option." Braddock tells her, thinking this over.
"First two things we need to outline, though. One: What is our code? What will we allow and not allow our organization to represent? What business will we do and not do?" Braddock asks.
"Second question: How are we going to fund this operation? I don't think we can exactly ask for a loan from anyone around here. We'll need to show people we're serious and get them to listen, my love. One they know we mean business, we'll have people wantin' in." he says.
"And I guess the third question is...what happens if and when we can go home?" he asks.
