Los Santos was better than Gavin could’ve ever hoped - which was great for him, proving Dan wrong always brought a grin to his. A wolfish one that showed off pristine teeth. Work was harder to come by at first but with a smooth tongue Gav was worming his way into jobs, getting a leg up on other smaller crews throughout the city. Slick suits and gold rings showed anyone that he would be a catch, but he’d drop them once he’d learned what he needed, sending Dan out to do the brunt of the field work while he’d direct.
So in a few months time the frustration was growing as the FAHC continued to evade both him and Dan - he needed a way in. Whether it was to try and bring them down or form a partnership didn’t matter to him. But they knew Los Santos far better than the Slowmo Guys, a harsh disadvantage. Locations, names, partners, he couldn’t find anything for the longest time. An impromptu lunch break had been his saving grace, there’d been an explosion across the street, the car that tore off down the street had a familiar logo. A glimpse was all he got and all he needed for the time being - when he saw him he knew that’d be the one he’d get to. Curly hair framing a round face, he looked young. Perfect.
It took a few more months to learn bits of who they were. Only a few names filled his notes, they’d been good at keeping a lot of personal info off record. The Vagabond and Brownman, he’d decided, weren’t his targets. Those two he’d begun to hear about. Those two were the most dangerous as far as he was concerned. Over time he’d a name to the face he’d seen - Mogar - another code name. But better than nothing.
Another night in a club, it was a shady one, the shadier the better after all. Many more gang members crawled around these parts. He was there for information, maybe for a pretty face too. He was almost too well dressed for the place, sunglasses tucked into his shirt with the low light and all. But then he’d spotted someone far more interesting that his original target, a pretty face and curly hair. Beyond perfect circumstances. With slow steps he made his way over - steeling himself as he slipped into the right state of mind. “Hello, love. Could I buy you a drink?”
