- A vignette:
- Cecil cracked his knuckles. The computer's screen cast a sickly cyan glow
- upon his face. He stared at its dead pixel as his mind chugged back into activity. Something he needed to
- do... rent. Rent. Fuck. He kicked back against the desk, pushing his chair into the center of the room. His
- rasta hoodie draped off the sofa's arm. The sofa and the computer desk, basically the only adornments in his
- sparse, shitty apartment. Cecil sighed. He walked to the window, lifting one of the blinds to stare outside.
- His heart jolted when he saw a tall
- object across the street - a palm tree. He put the blind back, noticed his hand was shaking. Worry tugged
- at his thoughts. Why the recent boughts of paranoia? As if he felt hunted? He checked his phone. No messages
- or notifications. Of course not. No friends. Cecil sat back in his chair, leaning back until it creaked. He
- studied the drawings on the wall. Detailed schematics of an outfit- a face covering, lenses. Some kind of
- vigilante thing. Cecil scoffed and ripped the drawing off the wall, crumpling it and throwing it in the trash.
- He settled back into his seat and stared at the dead pixel on his screen.
- ---#102---
- #102 and her team are heading out to an investigation. Her dad is feeling better than he has in 2 years,
- They're thrilled to be getting back in the game together. They stop at a grocery store to get provisions;
- it's going to be an all-night investigation.
- She, her dad and Ted are laughing and joking as they enter the store. On the way in, she passes a young man
- wearing a coat with a fur collar and dog tags around his neck. He holds the door open for them; as they make
- eye contact, they both get the strangest look...they swear they've seen each other before, maybe in a dream;
- he looks familiar to her, and he swears he's heard that laugh before....
- As they leave the store, their arms full of groccery bags, she bumps into another young man. A young man
- in a black leather jacket with a thick New Jersey accent. The grocceries go all over the place. He helps
- her and her dad pick them up....and as the two make eye contact, they freeze....
- "Excuse me, this is going to sound crazy, but...is your name Daniel?"

- [3/29/2016 1:48:31 AM] Emerson Maxwell: "For some reason, Garrett could never forget the name Lee. It frustrated him, because he knew it was
