[...........okay so it's not that he didn't expect Lalo to get into some shit while in hell, but like. What have you dragged them all into, Lalo.]

Ignacio's your cousin, got it. And I'm glad you're that satisfied with my representation.

[but as your lawyer: what the fuck, is what he wants to say. But he doesn't.]

He's very dedicated to his Medieval Times schtick, so I'm inclined to believe it's not an act.

[He's reluctant to share most actual important information with Lalo, sure, but this is something insignificant and he can't see what harm sharing information like this would be.]

[ These texts come later. Much later. 3am later. Lalo has shit to do in Hell, apparently.

The texts also come right after the other in short bursts. ]

Yeah, that’s what I figured.

[ Another text. ]

At first I thought he was one of those weird sad virgins, but I don’t think so.

[ Another text. ]

Think he’s legit.

[ ANOTHER text. ]

Anyway, you get some shuteye. Enjoy room # [ whatever room number Jimmy and Kim are in in the castle!! ]!

[ Threat? No, it’s not a threat! Saul is easiest to control when he’s kind of scared of you, but that doesn’t make it a threat. Jeez. ]

[of course lalo knows where they are. of course. that urge to just move rooms every single night until they all disappear or repent or whatever is right back in full force, because that's all he can think to do with lalo here. Because that's totally realistic and will totally work out just fine!]

Don't do anything I wouldn't do!

[ Sorry, was that a little scared of you?

More like a lot scared of you. More like deathly scared of you in a place where almost no one is actually dead, scared of you. More like you-are-the-thing-that-goes-bump-in-the-night-for-him scared of you.

Saul is easiest to manage when he’s petrified of you. Truthfully, Lalo has no intention of visiting Saul again any time soon, but he needs Saul to know it’s within his abilities. That he knows where Saul is, or at least where he sleeps at night, and could show up there at any time.

Of course, neither of them needs him to say as much out loud, and it’s better if they never do. Which might be part of why Saul gets only one final cryptic text to decipher. ]

[ There! Nothing but a harmless emote. …Right? ]
