He set his gloves in the drink holder with one hand, then returned it to the wheel. The car rumbled with muscles. Darren- "Oh yeah. Plus I'm kinda legally still alive."

Darren- "So ... they were some kinda art guys. You were too, right? Think you'll, eh, do anything with that?"
Eli could kinda tell Darren was trying to keep his mind off something, but maybe that was for the best.

Darren- "Visual art is hella different from what I did, but I feel like, I dunno, I sorta get what it's like? I used ta have an idea for a comic book."
The tall buildings began to diminish, the traffic paradoxically increasing as the roads became wider than they were downtown. Not an unusual night in the city.

Darren- "Man, we can't make art no more. Ya need a soul for that, bro."

Darren- "Actually I picture Vanessa Heaps in 'Nymphos for Blood'."
Darren- "Anyway, Demetri is like Demos. Even turns into the same kinda animals from what I hear. I remember when preachers and college stoners get into theodicy kinda shit they talk about a soul being the thing that allows us to get saved or not, to make those calls, and that it's our inner, truest self. Well what happens when our minds get shut down now? We fang out. We do damnationin' things. It's over, bro."

Darren- "Ya wanna see a goddite vampire, see Aubrey Greyburn and get back to me."
Darren- "Maybe I'm wrong, believe what ya want, but I don't feel like art's even a thing to do anymore. Ya feel me?"

Darren- "Just keepin' it real bro..."
Darren- "So yeah, gotta admit, pretty damn nervous. Doesn't help we're on a time limit. We gotta hit 'em before the last pickup of the night. Or during, whatev. What was the plan again?" They were in Shop Mart land, but Darren drove on by, heading toward a neighborhood of junky random businesses.

Darren- "Yeah, damn, what a plan." ((thx for lookin it up 4 me)) "That's right, we'll need two cars - one for getaway, the other to block the entrance..."
Darren- "Let's see I still got my thou from the other night, we could get a couple of total beaters, use that for the down payment. We leave the hot rod here, return the getaway and pick it up after the fact. Whaddya think?"
They pulled into a very small car dealership with a very large, fenced off back lot, enclosed in tall shitty holly and blackberry bushes.

Darren- "Oh they'll snitch, if the cops roll up on us here. That'll take the heat off their own shit, it's a given. But if we don't have a tail? I hear that's kinda what they're for."
Darren stepped out and closed the door. A fireball inside the building took notice and stood up.
