Henry For The First Time In Several Years: *seriously Calls Vito By His Full Name*

A interesting fact: at 23, Kimi got drunk on Ivan Kupala and fell 2 meters off a yacht (you probably saw the clip) and after that, the tabloids started writing against Kimi, claiming that this was unbecoming behavior for a racer. The guys on whose team Kimi was at the time managed to explain everything and say that he was celebrating and that it was normal for his age, and that they had no right to limit him :)

sudden facts are over for today

The Sainz' appendicitis is part of the inheritance

I hope no one has done this before. :D

(And in the chapter about drugs, the serious wolf is Vito, haha)

I'm sure they needed that light-hearted conversation.

(The sketch is a fan fiction and has no relation to canon)

The inspiration for the song was: "As the World Caves in" - Matt Maltese.

Sitting in a spacious and comfortably furnished living room, the two men drank whiskey and generally had a quiet time. They couldn't afford such a vacation for a very long time.

- Anyway, Henry, how did you learn English? Then you still haven't answered my question - Vito smiled weakly, but at the same time sincerely enough.

- Curiosity can drive you to the grave, you know? - Henry retorts, taking a sip of whiskey from a faceted glass. He exhales softly before answering the question: - My father invited a teacher home to personally study English with me. So, it seems, it happened. This teacher told me all about America, about Empire Bay, that he once lived here and dreamed of starting a family again...

- Why "again"?

- I asked him then. But he didn't say anything, just smiled at me and patted me on the head, asking me to continue studying. But then I found out from my father about what happened, it turned out that his wife and son were brutally murdered for not paying off their debts on time.

Vito nodded his head sadly. He was familiar with this situation, even if not to such a terrifying extent.

- Sometimes I think back to this story and fully understand why you, Vito, were so eager to grab all the cases just to earn more.

A silence hung over them, steeped in either awkwardness or grief for this teacher.

Henry decides to break this silence with the following words:

- i take it you learned English while attending school here? - He asked for the sake of decency and to defuse the situation.

- Oh, how do you know that?

- Joe, the day before you arrived from the front, got wildly drunk. And as you know, drunk Joe will tell you everything that bothers him, and that it is precisely because of this that he should not reveal particularly important secrets. He will blurt them out and will not blush with conscience. That day, he sat and sang about what a good friend and comrade he had. I thought at the time that he was exaggerating. Well, I take it back with a clear conscience - Henry laughs softly, velvety, remembering all this with a pleasant nostalgia that warms his heart.

Vito: *brings something under his jacket*

Henry: what do you have there?

Vito: nothing...

Kitten under the jacket: *meows*

Henry: are you sure?

Vito: I couldn't leave him freezing outside..

Henry: fuck...

I wonder if he's tired, upset, doesn't want to talk, wants to sleep, wants to be left alone, or is that Finnish again?

just wanted to say that i really love your vibe :))

🥺🩷 THANK YOU. I'm glad to hear that. 🫶

I think if Vito and Henry had known each other during the return of the former from the war, Henry would have been able to catch the moment when, due to a loud sound (fireworks or explosion), Vito shrinks and frantically searches for the source of the sound and does not even answer questions, as if being in a state of complete defense. And then Henry realizes how much the war has affected this man, and thanks his father in his thoughts, who sent him away during the war.

(Maybe later I’ll make a short story based on this sketch)
