News-ish

[The stream of people who ordinarily filter into Hookerville of a late night, bringing with them cash and custom and all the pleasantries of the skin-trade have begun to trickle elsewhere. The rooms in the motel are permanently let, it would seem. And the girls who work within them are happy, well-paid and shockingly, appear to enjoy what they're up to. One man, notorious for enjoying the line between pleasure and pain a smidge too much, disappears overnight. He leaves a wife and a teenage son, both of whom are more relieved than grieving.]

[Rae emerges from the dream with the sense of inevitability and so now, then that lingers on the skin like old perfume. When is a hiding place no longer a hiding place, or isn't that how the joke goes? It ends in prisons, or she thinks that's the punchline in the back of a car that deposits her smoothly at the edge of the Red Light district in the Capital. Of course, she could spend a day or two or six in the area of town where crime is unpredictable and the blocks, the streets are contested between gangs and no one would notice a few bodies in the morning. But she doesn't feel like it. Rae wishes to consume and she spends a full night in the District. There are three, by morning. A pair of high heels, a briefcase, a pair of glasses that the man had held by the arm and tapped the earpiece against his mouth. Discards, not dead but certainly not thinking anything coherent.

When Rae returns to town, it's like taking hot wind from the Sahara with her. For the first night, it's one of the girls from the Capital who takes the bus out of the city and the room rented for her in the Motel is somehow far nicer on the inside than any of the others. The men who come that night, talk. And the next night, there are four girls and more men and by the third, the Motel is pulling, determinedly it has to be said, at the anchor that is Hookerville in the cheap shanty-town on the outskirts and hauling it into its orbit. Rae isn't competing so much as she's not quite decided what she'll do with the competition.]

Masked balls always make me think of secrets. What do you burn to confess to, with a willing audience and anonymity? Do you have any secrets you've kept for so long they're old, and worn and emptying out of power?

I'd like to lodge a complaint. If someone shoves a religious pamphlet down the front of your shirt and declares that you "Need Jesus," I'm relatively confident that is less than kosher with the law, and also a very bad impression to give a newcomer. I should at least be permitted to speak to the local tourism board.

Hi. Okay?

[Public]

I apologize for what can only be described as a Lord of the Flies situation in the historical fiction the other day. To make it up to you, I've placed these around town to help us through these trying times.
