Debts Paid

Navegante & Jorge Salcedo

For @narcosfandomdiscord's Day of Support: "I got you."

Warnings: 18+, canon-typical chaos

Word Count: 536

A/N: This is just a fun little something because I like putting these two in a room together.

Jorge prided himself on being the type of person who never owed anyone anything. He made a habit of clearing his metaphorical debts quickly, or just never accumulating them at all. It made his life easier that way. The last thing he needed in his line of work was owing more than what was already expected of him. He tried to make sure that he was the person that people owed favors to.

All of that to say, for a man who tried not to owe anyone anything, he certainly never wanted to be in the position of owing Navegante of all people. And to be in the unique set of circumstances where he now owed Navegante his life? It was about as far from his preferred track as he could’ve landed even if he was trying.

For all of Navegante’s quirks, he did have a habit of being in the right place at the right time to at least serve himself if nothing else. That, and the man seemed to be able to get in and out of bed with some of the most dangerous people in the world and he was still walking around in one piece. Jorge would never admit it out loud, but in his head he had to admit that that was the kind of person you at least wanted on your side.

When Navegante referred to them as friends it felt like a bit of a stretch, but Jorge didn’t have it in him to tell the man that he was wrong. His timing was impeccable, as per usual. It had only been about twenty-four hours since Navegante dubbed them as pals when Jorge found himself in desperate need of a friend, or at least someone who didn’t want him dead.

He arrived with a symphony of screeching tires and gunfire. Stopping the car, he leaned over and opened the passenger side door for Jorge to get in. The smile on his face didn’t at all fit the chaotic scene unfolding around him, but it fit Navegante perfectly.

Jorge was scrambling into the car, his brain too wrapped up in what was going on around them to truly process and appreciate whatever humorous remark Navegante said when he was yanking the door shut. Not that it mattered to the man behind the wheel, who was laughing at himself plenty.

“No te preocupes, ah?” Navegante said as he pressed down on the gas and sped off, completely unperturbed by the bullets hitting his back windshield. “I got you.”

Jorge felt like he was still filled with enough adrenaline to send him into cardiac arrest, meanwhile Navegante had the same look on his face someone else might have when they were setting off for a Sunday drive. He didn’t have it in him to say anything, but even so, he didn’t know how much he was truly comforted by the notion of Navegante being the person who had his back. At least he was the only one who seemed uncertain about it. He’d figure out how to pay off that debt later, because he had a feeling he was going to have to be more creative than he’d been in the past.

Is that a lot of money to you?

If not, then please consider donating that amount to Safa'a and her family, who are desperate to escape the war in Gaza and start over. The fundraiser is in Euros, but a Dollar is worth an Euro, so you don't have to convert anything again! Just donate the same amount!

And if it is, then donate what you can - half an hour, ten minutes, whatever you can spare. Many small donations are what we're going for! And of course, if you can spare more hours for her, please do!

Please, let's help her out. Her fundraiser is vetted!

supporting communities & people impacted by the Southport attack and the far-right riots in the UK

here is a list of community fundraisers I found, starting with those aiming to support the Southport community after the appalling attack at a children dance party, to the fundraisers helping those affected by the subsequent racist and Islamophobic far-right/nazi riots

Edited on 5 August to include Middlesbrough fundraisers. Edited on 6 August to correct the link on the Books for Spellow Lane fundraiser, to adjust the name change for the Belfast fundraiser, and to adjust the wording in the second last paragraph.

Southport:

Southport Strong Together Appeal - organised by the community foundation for Merseyside, for those affected by the Southport knife attack

United for Southport families - the funds will be distributed among the nine families of the children who were at the party

Swifties for Southport - a fundraiser for the Alder Hey Children's charity, which supports the victims and the affected families, as well as first responders and clinicians. Extra funds will also support the wider Southport community

Fundraiser for the Southport Mosque - a fundraiser to aid rebuilding or possibly re-locating the Southport Mosque after the damages it suffered during the riots

Rebuilding Windsor Mini Mart - fundraiser to rebuild the locally-owned grocery store that was targeted during the attacks, broken into, and looted

Liverpool:

Fundraiser for the Spellow Hub - the Spellow Hub was broken into, looted and set on fire at night during the riots. The Spellow Hub is a newly created one-of-a-kind (in the UK) institution, which consists of a library as well as a community centre with a mission to help people get education and pathways to work

Books for Spellow Lane - another fundraiser for the library in the Spellow Hub, to replace the books and rebuild the library there edit: included the correct link

Hartlepool:

Fundraiser for the Nasir Mosque - the Nasir Mosque was attacked following Southport riots; this fundraiser is organised by Hartlepool citizens to help the mosque deal with the damages as well as to show appreciation for the role of the mosque in the community. edit: the funds will be also distributed to the local community!

Rebuilding the Farm Shop - the shop was targeted during the riots, and when the owner and his son tried to protect it, they were also violently attacked. The fundraiser is to help fix the damages to the store.

Sunderland:

help rebuild Citizens Advice Sunderland offices after arson - two of the Citizens Advice Sunderland offices were set on fire during the riots, and one of them is completely destroyed.

Hull:

Hull Help for Refugees - a local fundraiser to support the Hull Help for Refugees charity, the donated money will be re-distributed to community members affected by the riots

Fundraiser for Hull Help for Refugees and Welcome House in Hull - collected money will be donated to the two charities

Belfast:

help fix racially motivated damages - originally the fundraiser for the Sahara Shisha Cafe which was targeted by the far right in Belfast during the riots, now a fundraiser for all affected businesses in the area. edited to reflect the change of the name of the fundraiser to avoid any confusion

Middlesbrough:

Supporting residents after the riots - Middlesbrough has suffered so much during the riots, lots of businesses as well as just regular family homes were vandalised, had their windows smashed or even were broken into. This fundraiser wants to distribute the funds between affected people to help them fix the damages, and to generally support the local community. the newest fundraiser, imo potentially the most urgent one

Fundraiser for a Care worker's car which was set on fire - a car belonging to an employee of a care agency was set on fire during the riots while he was on shift at a care home.

If you want to donate locally but there is no fundraiser to support where you live, consider donating to your local charities oriented towards Muslim or PoC communities, or towards anti-racist and refugee organizations! And go support your local Muslim/Arab/Black/Asian/Refugee owned businesses!

If you have any information about other local fundraisers, feel free to add to the post or don't hesitate to let me know and I will add them here! We have seen so much hate in the past few days, we have to stay strong and keep supporting each other!

Stay safe everyone 💛

i hope everyone knows that the last wga strike was ~100 days and it's a pretty common phenomenon for strike support to tank after a month or two when it feels like it's dragging on and some writers and talk show hosts are crossing picket lines and trying to "return" to "normal" because of people's livelihoods etc when they're really just scabs. sure hope that we keep that in mind and are prepared for the long haul and aren't just in it while it's convenient for us <3
