"Señor Shelby," he mutters, eyes crinkling at the corners with amusement.
He likes the sound of that. "As part of the company, señorita Ortiz,
we should all endeavor to keep it at least that way. I hope you do know
that."
The way Letty shifts her own body to cover them better from sight from the rest of the room is automatic, using one hand in her skirts to give that little bit extra that only such garments can; mostly she's twisting to see, though, surprised to see Arthur here.
Her eyes narrow - "Arthur, my God, you can't go anywhere can you -" But she manages to stop herself from touching his cheek at all lest she get blood on her fine lady's hands, settling for his chin instead to hold him steady while she looks. Quickly. She's letting go in less than a three count, making an impatient noise that means she's not happy but it'll keep.
It just has Arthur grinning rakishly, used to the cuts and bruises but not
the chastising attention of a pretty woman in reaction. "Ah, I'm alright,
aren't I? Just a few cuts. He ain't stepping on your feet, is he?"

"Only one way to find out," he quips, as they reach the corner and he swiftly opens the sidedoor to the tracks. "Hello there, Arthur."
His brother grins at them, bleeding slowly from a cut to the cheek but seemingly unfazed. "Tommy," he says, "Leticia. Good to see ya."
