I waited a bit for probably-Snake-Punk to wake up. I spent that time very productively and not at all chewing on my claws! (Don’t tell Search. She’ll kill me.

Well, she won’t. But Drake might.)

I miss them. Darn. Didn’t think I had it in me.

“Ah… well, how long was I out?”

Hm. Where have I heard that line before?

(Drake. Search. Whitely. Even Vi! That was super upsetting. Little mini-punks should not get knocked out!)

Uh. Actually, that’s a good question. How much time has passed?”

“Anyway, we should probably be going now…”

“Yeah. I’m about tired of waiting for those slow-punks in there.”

The bar-fight doesn’t sound like it’s about to end.

“So what do’ya think the response time for law-enforcement – whatever they call it here – is anyway?”

Someone is thrown out the window. I’m … surprised it took this long.

I’m also surprised that any of these establishments even have windows? Isn’t that a budget drain?

“So, how far do we have to walk before we reach the wall? Ya got any idea Snake-Punk?” He has a name. Abyss might remember it but I don’t.

Search is right. I really should try to remember people’s names. But see, the problem is that implies I care about them!

“See, I’d scout ahead.” More crashing and banging. “But the thing is, this is Ax-Punk’s home. So it’s stupid to take point when someone else knows the territory.”

Screaming now. Well, there was screaming before, but it’s particularly loud, furious, and piercing now.

“Anyway, if they don’t come out soon, I’m leaving without them. I can’t stand this place! It’s too big. I think its even bigger than the Hives. How is that possible?! Hives were made by magic – now Oscar has opinions about that but frankly that makes me think I’m right! – but this is soooo big it’s wrong.”

Stop rambling.

“We should move before law enforcement gets here. They’ll be mad at me – or pitying. Depends on if they know me. Let’s move. Come on!”

There’s a nice little building a short walk off that I mean to investigate – with or without Snake-Punk.

But what if they leave without me?

I can take care of myself.

Except for the tiny, minuscule fact that I don’t know anything about this place?

“That’s a little Ma’n’Pa shop for sure. Let’s investigate before the cops come. I don’t want to get arrested.” Again. “Especially for something that isn’t my fault.” Sure is yours Snake-Punk.

Wow, I literally can’t sound more whiny and needy. Yikes.

Just shut up and walk. Just shut up and walk.

And don’t get hit by any improbable abominations.
