The sleet was threatening to turn to hail, the afternoon sky so dim it may as well have been after dark. Joe got in your passenger seat, looking a little grey in the cold light. He was still crunching on Altoids so strong it made your eyes water.

Colt (uneasy)- "Hey it's no big deal, but if you took a nip, be careful about it. The mints could be more of a hint that you wanna be giving."

Butcher (shaken) - "If I-- oh, ha, no... Maybe I should have though. Just losing my breakfast. Christ... Don't know why that got me. Maybe just seeing it all big like that."

Colt (uneasy)- "It got me too, buddy. I was blowing chunks on the inside."

Butcher (shaken)- "Heh, that makes me feel less bad, thanks. I gotta get my head straight if I'm gonna see that guy... and I have to. You ever deal with something like that? I bet you never got taken out like a chump though."

Colt (uneasy)- "Dammit Joe, the first thing you ever found out about me is that I got taken out like a chump."

Butcher (shaken) - "Well not-- *sigh* Yeah I guess so. But getting bricked in the head by some idiot punk is a pretty damn chump move. What do you do when you see a guy like that? I got the last laugh, in a way. He's the one in ankle cuffs. But it doesn't feel like...""

Colt (uneasy)- "You're not wrong to feel jacked up. He's playing us for attention, to make this a game. So you use that anxiety to stay on full alert for bullshit."

Butcher (shaken)- "Alright. Unless he's got secret homies coming out of the woodwork, I don't think there's much to worry about. What do you think?"

I screeched the car to a halt on the roadside and stared at my partner.
Colt (uneasy)- "Joe. Secret homies are a distinct possibility. Anything can happen, man. Remember my reports from the juvenile case?"

He looked a little alarmed about pulling over. Joe (shaken) - "Y-yeah, the... cult kids. The scenes should be cleared but... yeah, I'll remember it."

Colt (uneasy)- "On of the first things you ever told me is that you thought the hooligans that burned my eye out might be connected to the Mills situation. Both cases had creeping teens, right? Keep your eyes open but ready to dodge."
I wheeled us back onto the road.

Butcher (shaken) - "That factory doesn't light up anymore. Wonder if anyone could see the house from there..."

Colt (uneasy)- "Don't let your mind go places. What'll it take to reel you in? A hair shirt? A light tasing?"
