Wow. A real charmer.

Davin grew up with two shitty parents so he has little patience for anyone else's. But still, this is the father of his date and Davin is a good person, so he'll be polite and respectful. The scrutiny he's given doesn't phase him in the slightest. He's used to it by now, from rich cocky businessmen and women who just can't believe this kid is the mechanic that came so highly recommended. Davin takes great joy in exceeding expectations.

He shakes William's hand firmly and stands up straight, regarding him with a pleasant smile.

"Little bit o' both, I'd say," Davin tells him. "I was a witness in a case he worked awhile back, an' then not too long after he brought that gorgeous car o' his in for a tune up. I run Oceanside Auto, ya see."

A waiter passes by with a tray of champagne and Davin is sorely tempted, but he's already had a glass and he doesn't want to look like a lush. So instead he keeps his polite gaze trained on James' father. "James has been a good friend t'me, sir. He's a very good man."
