He gave a heaving sigh at the dwarfs attempt to peel their attention away from their target. Stubborn were dwarves, especially stubborn were drunk ones.
"If I throw a bit of coin your way, would you bugger off?" Johnny kept his irritation to a minimum, but if the fellow didn't back off soon...
Johnny was not about to stoke the temper of his companion, and he wasn't terribly pleased the man was attempting to do do either. He bit back his own words, watching her land a solid punch to the man's face before the one from earlier popped into their alley.

The prospect of being thrown fell away, and he would have been kidding himself if hadn't kept the idea in the back of his mind for later. Her words did not garner anymore thought from him than face value though. It was hard to tell the context of a scenario without having a long drawn out story...
The little man beside her was fidgeting with something, a small brass lock that was simply constructed. Nimble hands fiddled with the thing, turning it over and examining the edges as he found a tiny hole on the bottom of it. A brow arched as he burrowed in a pocket before producing a thin steel...
