[late june]

Most of Darrow seems to be mid-mental break down over all these people disappearing, but Nathan's not too fussed about it. He's already stalked Abby to make sure she's still around and he'd texted Marianne. That weird Nicky guy seems to be gone, but it's not like they were friends, so he doesn't dwell on that much or even really give it a second thought. (Okay, maybe a second thought, only because he was sort of hoping someone might teach him how to be properly immortal, but now he's just going to have to be immortal in his own way, which is fine, too.)

It is weird how quiet it's gotten. Barely any cars move through the streets and the busses are all just sitting in weird places, like they didn't even get parked properly. Nathan had tried driving one two days earlier and had promptly driven it straight into another car, so he'd decided not to pursue a career as a bus driver in an abandoned city and had left it running a few streets over.

Now he's just walking everywhere, doing pretty much the same sort of stuff he'd been doing before everyone had disappeared.

Alright, maybe he paid for things more often before everyone disappeared and he's definitely not doing that now. Right now, in fact, he's standing in front of the big front window of a dispensary, a brick in his hand, weighing the pros and cons of throwing it through the window and stealing as much weed as he wants. Pros: free weed. Cons: there's probably still a fucking copper around here somewhere and he definitely doesn't want to do more community service.

But pros: free weed.

Nathan hefts the brick again, then squints at the window and prepares to throw.
