Her last delivery of the day had been to the edge of town, and rather than swing back home immediately she'd gone in the other direction, instead, out to the beach where there were no buildings to climb.
Sometimes she watched people, and it was easier to pretend like she was just like everyone else if she was down here, passing people on the boardwalk, and not just watching them go past from a vantage point on a rooftop, or hanging from the side of a building.
Probably why she usually preferred those options, though.
But it had worked out, just now, because she'd just spotted Nuriko, around whom she felt a strange kind of normal.
I don't know if that's despite the fact she's superstrong and body-shopping, or because of it. Probably the latter.
Right now, though, she mostly just looked upset, and Jessica sped up. She never could stay away from distress. "Hey there, you. Is everything okay?"
