Description
[Image: The Chief looks down at the R.A. like she’s truly seeing her for the first time.
Chief: You tried to--?
But the R.A. just continues, as if she hadn’t heard her. She raises a small craft knife to the cable.
R.A.: But if I ever get in, like, WOW!! How scary!
She cuts it open. Her lips curl back over her teeth, and it’s hard to say if it’s the snarl of a cornered animal or an unhinged grin. Either way, the Chief receives the message all the same.
R.A.: That’s your arm and brain and central nervous system!! And probably some other stuff I don’t even know about!
The Chief just stands there, stiff and silent. The R.A. takes off her glasses and examines them. She softens somewhat.
R.A.: And that million-to-one chance is way scarier to me than losing my glasses. No offense, Chief.]
