*Cuh-Lick!*

(Y/N): Hold on a sec, just need to finish off my strip routine.

Paulie: Goodbye.

(Y/N): WAIT I WAS JOKING DON'T HANG UP!

Paulie: You're horrible, you know that, right?

(Y/N): And proud of it. So, what's up? Miss me?

Paulie: Obviously. Are you staying out of trouble?

(Y/N): Define trouble.

Paulie: (Y/N).

(Y/N): Yes, Mr. Party-Pooper, I'm staying out of trouble.

Paulie: Good. You know everyone's still talking about the chaos at the dock when you shipped out?

(Y/N): They better be. I didn't make a show of it for nothing.

Paulie: That Timbley guy and his parents are beyond pissed. Ma and Pa, too. You should really thank me for taking all the heat.

(Y/N): Ah shit, I'm sorry, man. I really appreciate you helping me out. I didn't want you to get caught up in shit.

Paulie: Honestly, it's better than the usual shit I'm caught up in.

(Y/N): Oh yeah, that reminds me, how are your gambling debts going?

Paulie: I was talking about that crap with Lucci and the others, not my totally normal enjoyment of Yagara racing.

(Y/N): Didn't answer my question, Pauls.

Paulie: For your information, I'm no longer in debt now that I'm the vice president of Galley-La.

(Y/N): Wow, how much do you even make? Last I heard you owed a fucktonne of berries...

Paulie: Like I'd tell you. You'd just turn that ship around and come pickpocket me like you used to.

(Y/N): Yeah, I totally would if we didn't have things to do.

Paulie: I thought you said you were staying out of trouble?

(Y/N): Who says it's anything sketchy?

Paulie: Well what is it then?

(Y/N): What polish did you guys use on the figurehead? I wanna make sure Victoria stays as shiny as she can be.

Paulie: You're avoiding my que-

(Y/N): I was thinking that next time maybe you could think of a way to make her jaw actually open and close! That would be wicked!

Paulie: Tell me or I'll let your whole crew know you used to write Mrs. (Y/N) Iceberg on all your old notebooks.

(Y/N): Okay, okay! Yeesh...We're just going to meet up with another crew. That's all. It's nothing sketchy.

Paulie: What crew?

(Y/N): Oh, you wouldn't know them...

Paulie: Try me.

(Y/N): ....[unintelligible mumbling]...

Paulie: Speak up.

(Y/N): I said The Re-[unintelligible mumbling]...

Paulie: One more time. Clearly. Don't test me, brat.

(Y/N): Ugh, fine! Just...don't freak out. You always freak out.
