  • [Cinch] When we're in the city or somewhere sketchy, I like to shadow the group, ride slow about a block away. Where i can be there for them at a moment's notice, be another pair of eyes... even draw fire. (The Jeep is louder than even Rue on a bad…
  • Wow people know me well. Robinson I'd like to see you be hot... but if that's not feeling right then I guess you could be weird some more. Your choice.
  • Rue, highlight Cinch.
  • Thirds, be Hot. Clarity, be Cool.
  • Clarity Knows Cinch better.
  • [Cinch] "What, like a battery, right?" I nibble on my bottom lip as I think on that, there ain't that many working batteries out there to be found. They can probably see me thinkin' about what I seen. Robinson's maybe gonna probably hafta refit …
  • [Cinch] Clarity doesn't look too good. A week? Hope so. I touch his forehead for a second, a comforting little touch like seeing if he's feverish. Then I stand back up and look to the others. "whevever this run goes down, count me in."
  • [Cinch] Robinson brightens my day, in his way. There's something abut how his glasses fall down to the tip of his nose and his hands are too greasy to push them back up half the time... I always look for a tell-tale spot of grease along one side. …
  • [Cinch] "Backup?" I say, his good attitude contagious. "I was gonna say the same about you..." I look at Robinson, back at Clarity. He's killed someone, hasn't he? Hugo's guys aren't the best neighbors, but I didn't expect something like this. Not…
  • [Cinch] I smile instantly as Clarity says a word. I stop with feet together, rising up on my toes a bit and answering with a chirp, "happy as Dallas!" I don't know what that means, but I heard it on the radio once. Then clutching my gloves in bac…
  • [Cinch] I park out on the gravel drive and walk a bit up to Bish's. No need to bring the Jeep right up to the door, that freaks people out. Little concerned look on my face as I walk up though, wonder what Robinson is doing out here. In any case, …
  • [Cinch] Around Monroe I'll stay with whoever takes me. I sleep in the Jeep quite a lot, but it's not my preference. From time to time I've crashed at Rue's place (always slightly awkward) at Robinson's when I've needed work done... But really I'l…
  • [Cinch] Driving on my own, I can't help but mess with the radio. There's pretty much never anything on, and nobody to answer when I call out. Robinson's gotta have the parts handy, if I could ever convince him to hook it up. There is that fellow Ed…
  • [Cinch] "Don't see why not," I comment. I really don't. Even Clarity was talking about some kind of trade or whatever. So sure! I settle in to sleep, letting out a content sigh. "tell ya the way in the morning, Wisher. When we got light." Travele…
  • [Cinch] She makes me laugh a bit. Yeah, guess they're like family. I look over at her, still leaning back on my hands. "Naw," I start the same way, "you know I come and go so much... ain't ever met someone worth giving' up on that for..." I spend…
  • [Cinch] She gets a grin out of me, now laying on my back, my head on my hands. "He ain't at that..." I still don't really get what Clarity's talking about, but that's kind of the charm. He's on another level.. it might be bullshit, but I'm happy t…
  • [Cinch] My eyes shine a bit, no doubt, as I look up at her. Little blush, "uh... no... no nothing like that." I raise my hands up like nuh-uh but I'm smiling. She likes him... not surprised. I follow her eyes over to Clarity, who is settling in to…
  • [Cinch] She tells me no. Yeah, ok... little disappointed but... yeah that makes sense. She's right. "Yeah, you're right, you got people... stick together." A little quick nod, like you do when sort of agreeing with something. I keep busy with what …
  • [Cinch] I settle in, sleeping outside, yeah I've done that plenty. Can't say I've shared a blanket like this all that often. I talk over my routine, legs crossed, working on my weapon. "I uh..." yeah, wish I could, "I gotta get Clarity where he's …
  • [Cinch] Yeah! I almost laugh cause you know this is awesome. Does feel a bit like I imagine having a sister feels. When you're out in the open night comes fast and dark, folks sleep early and wake early. I smile at Clarity as I pass. He seems to …
  • [Cinch] So the party winds down and I head back to the Jeep, my fingers deliciously greasy from the meat and the taste of one last sip of cola in my mouth. I wipe my hands and reach up for the door handle, a foot on the running board... then look…
  • [Cinch] Yeah I'm sitting there kind of joking with Wisher and listening, really listening to her story. And you know Clarity goes on a lot so I don't pay him too much attention at first... no offense or nothin' right? You know I heard an earful the…
  • [Cinch] Clarity does tell a good story. Did he wait until that moment when I had my lips on the mouth of the bottle I'm sharing with Wisher to mention how it's good for your sexy bits? Makes me giggle, glancing at Wisher... yeah I hand her the bott…
  • [Cinch] Ok, so about the Jeep. Yeah it's hard to steal. You know the thing is armored (It does have doors, unlike the picture) and the machinegun on the roof is attached tight, it won't come off unless you cut it with an arc welder or something. I …
  • [Cinch] I don't let go of my breath until I hear the sound, and then it's a surprised little puff, followed by a genuinely happy and surprised smile as I look over at Wisher, then Bill and Clarity. "Whoa, did you see that?" I say, as surprised as…
  • [Cinch] Rusty. Yeah, been a long time. I test the string another time or two and roll my fingers around the bow. She's not much smaller than me so at least it's a good fit for me. I exhale a long breath and raise the bow. I learned what I think is…
  • [Cinch] I take the gear, like the purple. Take a second to run a finger along it and feel that tickle. "Oh yeah, used to hunt rabbit, wild turkey..." wow has it been so long. "Long time ago now... up north past the rocks. You know I miss it but .…
  • [Cinch] I take a few steps away from the jeep, walking towards Wisher and the other girl but talking to Bill, "they'e out there... but you're right it ain't like it used to be. Used to be every damn family had a car, two... can you imagine?" I ke…
  • [Cinch] Little embarrassed when Bill bows like that, a goofy little look on my face like I'm not used to such gestures. Clarity does me the favor of speaking up with a question... though... maybe not one I really want to have answered. "We ain't h…
  • [Cinch] Yeah, it's theirs, no strings attached as I told him. After this? I have our trail stock, enough to finish our circuit and get home, but that's about it. Another barter worth but that's not in food, probably something we found along the way…
