It wasn’t as though she was in a rush.
Yeah, this walk has seemed fairly relaxed. It’s a fairly calm scene for now, though I have a feeling that’ll change. Question is just how long it takes before Bonesaw, the Newbie or Hatchet Face gets involved here.
She’d walked long enough for six songs to start and finish before someone stopped her.
Oh, hello.
“Miss. Miss!” He was barely audible over her music.
Was she about to walk into the road or an open manhole or something because she was paying too much attention to the music?
She turned and saw a man in military gear, forty-something, his face heavily lined. He wasn’t wearing a helmet, he had a short buzz cut, a bit of scruff on his cheeks and chin, and his face was beaded with droplets of water.
Hm. Restricted area? Or is this guy working for someone less official, like Coil?
I don’t think this is Hatchet Face.
She pulled out her earbuds.
Especially since we got to the end of that paragraph without any mention of the scars that give him his name.
