122nd Devotion: Quality Time with the Rival

[Video/Action]

[One moment Solomon Goldsmith is out enjoying the view of the city's lights below from his balcony, and in the next moment his environment abruptly shifts into a bright interior room. His face shows some sign of annoyance at this, but not the typical shock or hysteria that is often evidenced by others in the City. After all, Solomon has been going through such inconveniences like this for longer than most.

Instead, he looks down at the splattered mess of his deep red beverage staining the light carpeting and gives a slight tug on the handcuff now encircling his wrist. With narrowed eyes, he looks askance at the cello bow being held by the other man's captive hand.]

...Haji. Of course.

Totally intrusive but it's okay. I opened myself up to it. Besides, it's not really a secret.

There's the whole thing with people leaving. My boyfriend, at the time, went crazy--totally not a curse--and there was a chance of him eating me and or my friends.

And I was killed by a psychopath a couple of months ago.

You were killed? [This worries him. Well, it all worries him, but this is the most disturbing.]

Yeah and he's back. Just walking around because...there's not much the City can do.

Why not? [He really needs to re-read that death part of the guide he was sent.]

People don't stay dead here. I mean, we stay dead but we still walk and talk and shop and live minus the heartbeat and the breathing and the body temperature.

Is that why your murderer is still free?

Yeah. He was caught and people killed him but, like I said, it didn't stick.

There are jail cells, I think but there's no justice system. I'm not sure what the police do.

For lack of a better term, yes.

Yeah. I guess that one works. Mostly I just try to be careful, be aware and walk around in pairs at night.

So are you settling okay in the City?
