[ As it happens, the boy's voice could be a little quieter, a little more distant - possibly, if he'd ridden in with a horde of the undead. ]

How do you... resign?

[ Slight pause. ]

When I tried to, they weren't the right words. Right sounding. Right on paper. Right to think abou - ...right. Sorry. That's impolite to ask all of a sudden, without a proper greeting. My bad.

[ A hint louder, more rehearsed - ]

Good day. Pleased to meet you. How do you do.

[ And now back to the ~~pathetic~~ old track. ]

If it's all the same to you: how do you resign from something like this?

Shinji huh?

[this kid better have some potential, or else he's just wasting his time.]

Name's Senji, but if ya want you can call me Crow. Anyways, why are you runnin' away? Not like there's anything chasing you.

[ There is, in effect, nothing to say. Nothing reasonable.

He whiles a polite few seconds in silence. ]

Why... Crow?

It was my codename when I was in prison.

[and he notices how Shinji avoids his line of questioning.]

I really don't give a shit what ya call me.

A bird's name is as good as any other.

[ ................. ]

Priso -- ? Prison?!

Chehaha! Yeah, prison! We're all jailbirds, get it?

I didn't think crows survived cages.

They don't, but this Crow definitely did.

You can't be a crow, then. Maybe you're a... sparrow?

No I ain't! I'm Crow dammit, Crow! A Sparrow doesn't sound cool at all!

A... blackbird?

Crow! Say it with me, Crow!

A small owl...

There already was an Owl!

They can be the big owl.

But I wanna be the big owl!

[...wait.]

Wait a second, what were we talkin' about?

I don't know what owls talk about.

Well me neither but....

[he's getting so off track.]

Try hooting.

I don't hoot! I already said I'm not an owl!

It's not that I don't believe you...

Seriously though, we all had codenames in prison. There was Woodpecker, Hummingbird, Mockingbird, Owl, Game Fowl, Condor- the list goes on.

I thought prison was the kind of secret people tried to keep.

Well I don't really give a fuck- so why should I keep it a secret?
