    Summary

    As soon as Aubrey Thyme, psychotherapist, had opened her office door and seen her new client, Anthony J. Crowley, sitting in her waiting area, she was observing and assessing him. At first glance, she paid attention to the following:

    --His clothing was expensive and stylish;
    --He wore very strange but noticeable cologne;
    --His relationship to the seat he occupied could only, very loosely, be described as “sitting;”
    --He looked angry;
    --He was wearing sunglasses.

    What Aubrey Thyme, a professional, thought, upon first seeing her new client was: you’re going to be a fun one, aren’t you?

    Summary

    “It’s a preexisting condition,” Jon explains, sipping more bitter tea. “I sort of got—hm. You know Spiderman?”

    Tim raises an eyebrow.

    “Heard of him, yeah.”

    Jon nods, studying his tea.

    “It’s sort of like that,” he says. “A spider killed and ate me when I was a child, and now I can’t stay dead.”

    Summary

    “I should say, then, that your records are not entirely complete,” the woman says, and her entire face moves like a stone cast into a pond of still water. “My name is John Silver, and I’m an excellent forger.”

    In between the moments that it takes for the light to flicker above them, the woman next to him is replaced. Flint finds himself looking right at a dark-haired man now - slightly taller, but his gaze is no less piercing as he keeps his grasp on Flint’s arm, if anything getting closer to him as the train sways.

    Flint forces himself to stay still, holding his gaze even as Silver’s blue eyes dip down to his mouth. “Mr. Silver,” he says, evenly, as the man's mouth curls up like he knows he's right. “I’ve heard much about you.”
