junosteel: (really??)

[Juno turns to look at the man Boone is referring to. He's not hard to find--if he yelled any louder, he'd probably burst the poor bartender's eardrums. He raises an eyebrow and marches on over to the man. Before he can interrupt, the man jabs a finger at the bartender, making them jump back. Juno grabs the man's wrist, staring him down.]

I think you've had enough for now. Why don't you--

[Before he can finish his sentence, the man turns and sends a fist flying towards the bartender. Luckily, Juno's face is there to catch it. The man's fist hits Juno squarely between the eyes, causing his head to snap back. He's lucky that his nose didn't break for the umpteenth time.

If he had his laser blaster on hand, he could probably stun this guy no problem and throw him outside. Unfortunately, he's only got his fists and his smart mouth to defend himself. Maybe he could use the tables and chairs to his advantage, throw the guy off balance, but that would probably never get him hired.

Well. He's gotten out of situations with less. So, Juno decides to kick the man in the shins. The man yells out in pain, his attention now on Juno. Juno darts to the side, far enough so that the man can't reach him with his fists, but close enough that he can still be annoying.]


What's the matter, big guy? You want a fight, you got one.

[That gets the man to get off his fat ass and stomp towards Juno, away from the terrified bartender. Good. Unfortunately, the man picks up his glass and chucks it directly at Juno's head. Juno dives behind a table and hears the glass shattering against the ground. He scrambles back out, waving at the man. Behind him lies the exit of the Lucky 38.]

Woah! Didn't your parents ever teach you Fight Etiquette 101? [Pause.] Actually, from the way you were treating that bartender, I doubt they taught you any manners, either.

[The man doesn't reply, focused on mashing Juno's face in with his fist. He charges straight towards him, shouting explicates that would make even the dirtiest Outer Rim pirate blush. At the last moment, Juno steps to the side, sweeping his leg under the man's feet and causing him to fall flat on his face. He pulls the man up by the collar, glaring daggers at him. He punches the man in the face and kicks him in the stomach for good measure, then pushes him towards the exit.]

Get out. Come back when you learn to be goddamn polite.

[After watching the man stumble out, Juno staggers back towards Boone. His head his throbbing from the punch, and, it's almost guaranteed that he'll have a concussion. Pretty typical day on the job for Juno Steel, Private Eye.]

So? How'd I do?
