Re: Meanwhile, around town

(Duke was busy, trying not to flirt too hard with his old babysitter.)

Dwight sat back in his truck, watching Octavia approach. She matched the description he'd gotten from Vince, down to the way she looked like she could cut you just by looking at you.

Vince said Duke had told her about the troubles. But how much did she actually know about them? How much did Duke know? Was Octavia seeing Claire, or was she here to shake her down for the locations of vulnerable troubled people for Duke to target?

Everything Dwight knew about Duke led him to believe he was a decent guy. A lowlife, but decent. But from what he'd heard from Vince and the Chief, that decency wouldn't matter much once the Crocker Curse was activated.

Sometimes Dwight missed the Rangers. At least with them, he usually had a pretty good idea who his enemies actually were.
