Owen was completely unfazed by the protective reactions from the guardsmen or the veiled threat she’d issued. He was lucky he was useful. He almost laughed in her face. As if he’d care what she’d do to him if she found him unuseful.
There was something entirely too easy-going about the smile he gave her as she insisted her gang keep them under surveillance. He couldn’t have cared any less it seemed. Let them watch.
He was content to swagger back to the truck and hop inside. When he was ready to ride, he hung his arm out the window and slapped the door. It was a loud and concentrated kind of slapping sound as if two hard things were knocking against one another. It was the metallic alloy hidden in leather that made such a sound against the truck door. Owen sarcastically saluted Julianna and the gang members as Darcy drove them into the city.
Owen left Darcy to find a depot to have the truck tinkered with while he found himself a place to sleep off the booze. When he woke, Owen had found that the sun was long past set and the moon and stars had made themselves visible in the night sky overhead. Of much clearer mind, Owen was curious to better make the acquaintance of the notorious gang leader and pick her mind a bit.
He was not shy in asking around for her and found the information as to her likely whereabouts was easy to come by. She could probably be found tinkering around in her personal workshop. Which is exactly where he found her, rattling around with some mean looking engine.
Owen approached wordlessly on quiet feet. He took up a post, leaning against the wall of the shop to watch her work for a few minutes. Still without greeting her, he began idling his way along the walls, examining the tools and implements she had hanging from the walls or lined along shelves. Whatever he found of interest he didn’t hesitate to touch.
“So,” He said finally, breaking the silence and alerting her to his presence. “Wanna tell me how you went about losing an entire child? They’re kind of hard to misplace, if I’m not mistaken.” He moved up next to her and leaned into the engine to watch her from up close. Owen put his hand inside and fiddled with some piston pins and bearings.
