shipping and handling - ota! Despite being a sailor, Hickey cannot swim. This isn't entirely unexpected: he's a sailor from the 1840s, plenty of people in his time couldn't swim, even if they spent their time on boats. But that doesn't change the fact that Hickey absolutely cannot swim. And Hickey also got word from "Jimmy" last event that the way to get things things to notice you, to pay attention, is to feel real fear.
Ergo, Hickey is sitting at the edge of the water, underneath the bridge, looking at the water with a suspicious little frown. He should go in there. He saw a face in the water, that's obviously something. But he doesn't want to drown. But he should go in there, the fear of drowning is part of the point. But he really doesn't want to drown.
The moment he sees someone else, he takes that as a sign. "Oi! Over here. Thought I saw something."
say, say, oh playmate - ota! It looks like Billy. The thing in the mirror looks like Billy Gibson. But Billy Gibson that's whole, not Billy Gibson as he was when Hickey stabbed him. No lead poisoning here. Just the lithe, skinny, man he...Hickey is hesitant to say loved. Trusted? Enjoyed? What they were doesn't matter. What matters is that this is his Billy.
Come on, Cornelius, Billy says, from a windowpane, as Hickey examines the back entrance of a small grocery store. You saw how that woman did it back in the hotel. Just jam something flat in there and help pop it open. You'll want to come inside. It's not going to want to see you if you don't.
So don't mind Hickey who's hanging out in an alleyway, at the back of a grocery store, very obviously doing some breaking and entering.
