Nathan opened his overshirt and turned, revealing a close fitting tshirt and no suspicious bulges. "I got nothin'. Service weapon is up in my bag. Feel free to take it."
"What about you, Chief?" Julia asked.
"Like the girl said, I was coming to a birthday party!" The Chief threw his arms up in the air, then lifted his pants to show his ankles. "Look, there's nothing."
"Alright." Audrey nodded. "Anyone else? Going once? Going twice? Okay." She pointed to Nathan. "Boathouse. ASAP."
"Right," Duke said. "The rest of us will just. Stay here. And hope neither of you decides to kill the other." He dropped his head and let them walk past, and tried -- once again -- not to freak out too hard.

"Tavi, you wanna come look for a radio or something with me?"
