[That first comment, he's not sure how to answer, so he doesn't. The guy was always Papa when he was growing up and then the guy got kicked out and it's not like it changes what Johnnie has always called him and continues to. Maybe it sounds affectionate to her, but it's just - "father" sounds too fucking weird, "dad" is really... weird too in a way he can't put his finger on. The guy's his Papa, for better or worse.
But, whatever. Johnnie just shrugs.]
If anything was gonna go differently it woulda had to go differently fuckin' ages ago. Ten years ago woulda been a good time. Nothin' was gonna go okay yesterday. Coulda been a lot worse, at least we didn't get arrested. Coulda gone worse for him too, 'cause I was about to break that fucker's nose in.
