[OPEN] Don't switch the blade on the guy in shades, oh no....

Who| Mister Scratch and YOU.
What| There's a new guy in town. He's going SHOPPING.
Where| Every clothing and accessory shop in the Capitol.
When| After the Arena.
Warnings| Language, crude talk, and a creepy serial killer.


It's always a pretty sudden thing, isn't it? When out of nowhere, there's a new body in the district, a new face trying to adjust to the cruel reality that they have been thrown into. Some people hide. Cry. Try to pretend that none of it is going to happen to them, not really.

...And then there's this asshole.

A tall, dark figure is roaming through town, through every single shop - trying on and buying every pair of sunglasses that he likes (and some he doesn't), leaving a bunch of very confused shop clerks in his wake. A pair of glasses for every occasion, every outfit - he just rolls into store after store, chipper as can be, pulling glasses on and then unceremoniously throwing them into piles.

Just as he's trying on a pair, he spots you - and he approaches, a bounce in his step, a grin on his face. He doesn't care what you look like, who you are, what you were trying to do - no matter what, he addresses you, pointing at himself.

"What do you think of these? Good? Bad? I mean, none of these can look BAD on me, but eh, some are more shit than others."

He's not gonna leave you alone until you answer him.

That was bullshit: she knew barely any kid was a mentor. If there was any that should have been one now, it was Sandy or Ellie. Of course, everything was decided by persistence and a little bit of luck.

"I LIKE my butterfly knife," Mindy said, "but I'll settle for a decent pair of guns. I favor a USP compact or a Sig P232 if I had the choice. Found it fits my hands perfect."

That might have been a little alarming to some people: for Mindy, it was going to be something to file away, someone who obviously knew the craft of killing, or at least using a knife. Still, she had to assume PEOPLE, or he'd be falling over himself to reinstate he was not some kind of butcher.

"What can I say? I can whip it around pretty bad when I need to. In my kind of work though, the people that wanna kill you aren't going to ask polite with a knife: you have to be good at shooting. Sure makes it easier to take on a shitload of guys, that's for sure."

Fun huh? That sure said a hell of a lot about him. He was someone to watch in the Arena, she bet. It didn't help that, in theory, she did sort of agree with him. She rather DID like taking care of a bastard with her own two hands up close, even if a gun helped prevent the guy who used his height and weight to his advantage.

Granted, there was always ways to combat that.

"I take care of people who have cops in their pockets," Mindy said. "Not a business that pays, but one that needs to be done."

Ok, that was a lie it TOTALLY paid.
