See, this kid means for that to be reassuring, but all it does is put a furrow in Frank's already less than pristine-looking brow. Yeah, maybe he needs his nose set, but first-
"What'a you mean, nobody to narc to? You gotta have someone to narc to. What, you don't have-" He starts, then stops himself, because while his mouth may have run away from him by just a few seconds, his mind catches up enough to know what a fucked up question that would be to just outright ask someone. He pivots at the last second to , "-anybody lookin' out for you? You realize you're in goddamn New York City, right?"
You can't just run around here on your own without having somebody. Especially not as a teenager. Parent, guardian, older sibling, group home director, foster parent, something. Backup, at least — someone better than whoever had been cheering Clint on up until they split with the rest of Frank's pals. Especially if he's gonna go around getting into fucking fights and shit.
