                            IT’S THE KIND OF UPPERCUT you’d die for — die from, if you’re caught on the wrong side of it. draped lazily over a nearby road blasters console, she’s happy to spectate the button-mash brigade — humming with faint approval as ryu lays the smackdown of the match.  “ you want a player two?? ”  she’s sure she’s heard above the din of the packed-out arcade; announces her presence more definitively with a hot handful of quarters laid down on the surface of the streetfighter machine.  “ unless the AI’s already too much for you. ”

Margot’s brow furrowed as she looked at the map on her dashboard. Derry was a hard town to navigate. ‘Course, it wasn’t that big. It was just... strange. But she would be here for a while, so getting a job was probably necessary. First stop, movie theatre. As she pulled her station wagon up on curb, her attention was drawn to a kid standing outside, curly hair, glasses, probably thirteen. He looked kind of distressed about something or other. Was he waiting for his parents or something? She had heard about the rate that kids go missing in this town, and she couldn’t help but be a little concerned. 

After dropping off her resume inside, the kid was still hanging around. It was going to be dark soon, and as much as she didn’t want to get involved in a stranger’s business, she still felt like she should at least ask if he was alright.

“Hey- uh.” Margot glanced around at the darkening sky, approaching the younger kid warmly, “It’s getting pretty dark. Do you need a ride somewhere, bud?”
