Just a Passing Assassin...

“You’re spending a lot of time prepping for this job, must be a big deal.”

Spiral: It is, bounty boards are turbo active right now.

Spiral: if I can’t keep momentum now, might miss out on my big break you know?

Spiral: I wanna take this seriously.

“I guess…”

“Don’t see why you want to be a *famous* bounty hunter. Only makes the job harder..”

Spiral: Most people don’t keep up enough to recognize me. Only certain types, you know?

Spiral: Gotta pay off my loans anyway…

“You should’ve never made them in the first place…”

Spiral: Too late now.

Spiral: Got the worst of them paid off at least…

“How’d you manage that?”

Spiral: Friend set me up with a deal, won’t collect anytime soon and no interest as far as I can tell.

“Sounds like a scam…”

Spiral: Maybe. Other option is I didn’t pay it off and my knees are gone so…

Spiral: Have a shot now.

“I’d say it’s your fault but… that wouldn’t be fair. Family really dumped that on you when things went down…”

Spiral: Let’s… not talk about that…

“Sorry.”

Spiral: So why are you here?

“Because I need a job for a friend. Potentially a big one. One that you have less chance of getting killed over.”

Spiral: Don’t get why you worry about me….

“Bailed you out too many times at this point, feel like if I let something happen well…”

Spiral: Sunken cost?

“Shut the fuck up.”

Spiral: “Hehe…”

“Anyway can you like…. Turn around? Haven’t looked me in the eye since I got here.”

Spiral: I guess…

You turn around…

What you see is….?
