excerpt from chapter2.rpy
petra "Sykes. You are making pain faces..." sykes "Yeah. Gonna have to switch off driving with someone else, or I'll be hopping around on one leg tomorrow." petra "Ah ha ha ha. <Hopping Man.>" sykes "What?" petra "<The Hopping Man?> You never heard that one?" sykes "Guess not." petra "Ah, in Eisenarm they say to children, if you are outside too late, <The Hopping Man> will come." petra "He jumps on one leg, so he is not very fast. But he will chase you and chase you, and if he catches up before you get inside... he will grab you by the legs and pull you into a hole!" sykes ". . ." sykes "Just... a hole?" petra "Mmhm. A hole in the ground." sykes "...This is something you tell children?" petra "I was never late getting home."

"(VISUALS: we are in another kinda dumpy town at some kind of cute but dumpy row houses)" petra "This is where... you know people?" sykes "Hn." sykes "This is where I was living for a while, last year." petra "Ah..." sykes "..." sykes "...A couple of ground rules, before we go in there." sykes "This time, you let me do the talking, and you hang back." petra "???" sykes "Just... smile, or something. Whatever it is you do that makes people like you." sykes "And... keep your hands visible." petra "?????????? ?? ?" sykes "Can you do that?" petra "Yes, but why...?" sykes "If I tell you, you’re gonna get all nervous about it." petra "Well, I am nervous NOW!" sykes "Don’t be. It’s fine." petra "All day you have been Mr. Secrets Man! What is happening?" petra "...What am I about to find out about you?" sykes "Nothing interesting." petra "Okay, well--" petra "WAGH!!" "At least once a day, she forgets how tall the truck is and steps out into thin air." sykes "Again?" "At least she landed on her feet this time." petra "Usually when I get out of a vehicle, the ground is there!" petra "How is it you don’t have any problem?!" sykes "...I look where I’m going."
