"Mm? Yeah, that's me." I straighten up and tug at my jacket. Same old Dog. "Can't really place you if we've seen each other before..what's your name, then?" This is puttin' some nerves in me. If people remember me like this it's usually for a …

Bon's look cuts into me. Maybe I shouldn't have offered - we just talked about her fears for me. I know Balance is bad news, but if they cancel the duel that will be some real chaos. Same if we throw in a sub and they suck. People will throw on …
-
"Oh yeah? Huh." Don't like Tax Patrol. Zeus told me once about Balance, she was friends with their daddy, back before Tax Patrol was a big splash. They're from pretty far north, and seen a whole lot of this ruined world. When people run from a …

"You gotta get a second player in there. Who's she up against?" I ask Ephram while I'm getting the foldy stretcher unfolded. Pine's legs and hips get moved onto it first. Then I wait for Bon's help and go-ahead to get the rest of her settled on …
-
I repeat the action with the fresh injector, not hesitating, keeping her neck in one place. Bon's shortness means there's not much time. I can feel it, almost. Her loud, happy life threatening to drift away into the hush of death. But it doesn't…
-
"Flood's sake.." That arm looks bad. "Of course Grimace has an engine that soaking big." I murmur. This is a lot of blood, it's gonna be a close thing for Pine. Bon gives me something to do since I'm staying close with her, so I nod and take th…

I keep chasing after Kitsap as she yips at me. I kept my mouth shut after spotting Watauga. Didn't want a distraction for me or Bon. Garage feels bigger than last time I was in. Maybe it's this crowd. I head right up and make space for Bon, sho…

Last time I was down here was a few months ago. Tin-Girl'd heard a rumor there were speak-makers down here and maybe we could wire the hideout for sound for a party. There wasn't a single flooding thing worth taking down here. There are better ba…
-
"Yeah!" I keep pace with Bon, not wanting to let Kitsap get too far ahead, but not letting Bon fall behind is more important for certain. I look to and fro under the backways, wary of places where bodies can press in and hide. I slide on my red l…
-
Running feet make me alert; I stand up, ready for some trouble. Then it turns out to be Kitsap. I could toss her over my shoulder and run across SafeCo, so not a worry. Just another emergency here at the clinic. "Pine? Flood." Bon takes it all…
-
"Okay, good. I know you can always find a reason to stay here and do your work, but Soundy's not the only Arrow who needs to let herself heal." I try to reflect some of Bon's earlier mildness. I drain my mug and reach out to put it on the table. …
-
My face follows Bon's hand a little, then I put a hand over hers on my shoulder. "Alright, good." With our foreheads still touching, I tweak her nose softly with mine, smile. "It's not easy, is it? I'm glad for you, though. Proud." I pull back…
-
I just put my hands on Bon's hands as she talks about the blood vial, keep my eyes steady. What a wicked nasty thing to have. I've thought about dying a lot but not killing myself. Seemed like something I'd never have to do, always a soaking volu…
-
Patiently, I let Bon say her peace. She needs to open up about this, for someone to hear. After she lets go of my arm and settles into talking, I gently shift her hair out of the way, over her opposite shoulder, and keep a hand on her back. Well,…
-
I sip at my water, wrapping my hand around the mug and not the handle, smiling a little and chuckling about Bon swearing on sober life again. "It's good to be careless sometimes, and let us know how you feel. Otherwise we don't know. Like how ba…
-
I follow Bon's eyes to the meal she didn't eat, frown a little myself. I could just about eat it right now, too. But nah. Concern's gnawing at me instead. There's some new things coming from Bon lately, but she's still Bon. I prop my butt a lit…
-
"Yeah..I told Rainey to keep an eye on her. Between you, me and her we should be okay." Fingers crossed. "A thermo-meter." I watch Bon fiddle with the warmfinder thing, leaning in a little out of curiosity and then grin back at her when it works…
-
"Hah! Sounder, you get back to the hideout, say hi to people, and do just that. Then I'll protect you from Bon's fire, yeah?" I wink. I look forward to having Sounder back, even if it's belly-achey Sounder. I can't help but snoop around, make s…
-
"Hey, maybe I'm'a work your legs instead, girl." I grin toothy, with a little warning behind it. "I'm cool with you riding second if Bon thinks it's safe. Don't want your arm to finish healing up weak or in a twist, you know." Now, I heard what …
-
"Sounder! No way, you heard wrong. Grunge is riding 'Duke's bike now. Shy is learning on yours, but no way is it hers. Once you're back, that's all done, we'll tell her to put more hustle on finding her own." It's a little mean to have Shy lear…

So, SeaTac, you were part of a whole Unit, and all. I know things went wrong and you've been alone for a long time. I feel that. What's something you want to get back the most from that time when the Unit was together, now that you're rebuilding …
-
I reset my Hx with SeaTac and mark XP [3] I think SeaTac knows me better. It's the most we've ever talked in that Mixer, I think. I spend one barter on my rock and roll lifestyle. Gates Highlights me.
-
I nod, feelin' like I can see parts movin' but not enough of 'em. Wish I could ask Nana about all this. "You got a good floodin' point there, SeaTac. That was some real timing. And yeah, I promise I'll keep you in on things, keep it pointed stra…
-
At least two dances! I got tossed! Whoop! Can't let that happen just once. After the second dance we're in the middle of a whole lot of noise and I need a break. I pull SeaTac aside, far enough that we can hear ourselves think but close enough …
-
I grin back. "Thanks for the warning, soldier." I follow SeaTac's lead, lifting my feet and moving with energy, but not with any waste. I like how much space we're taking up, and I laugh with it. Belka told me once I have good 'frame' which I gu…
-
"Hah, sure!" I put my drink down and pull away from the group, leaving room for SeaTac to follow. "August'll remember to dance with you another time, just you wait." I call back to Gates and Valentine. "Good talk. Don't drink my stuff!" I sett…
-
Slowly a finger of that hooch from Valentine disappears. I lick my lips, sucking whatever burning flavor I can keep. "Yeah, you can keep a lot of misbehavior down if you give people something to be excited about. A full belly and something to thi…
-
"Well, flood me, Valentine, I thought I was done for the night, but set me up." I lean in, propped on an elbow. Valentine, sometimes ze does these fancy pours, it's neat. And any hooch ze thinks is good stuff is really good. I'm into it. "Hah, …
-
He hasn't heard of me? This a game, sure, I'll play it. "Heya Gates, QuePasa, good to meet'cha. I'm with the Arrows, ridin' first seat right now. You see a lady on a hoverbike with some great hair..'cept for Grunge 'cause she has to grow it back…
-
"Couldn't leave you out, SeaTac, glad you made it." I swig my drink, keeping Hope at my side. "Philosophy? Can't say as I'm any expert on it. I mean, I can do a little justice-talk but that's repeatin' things I heard. That counts, though, right…
