Now, it's just a right lovely evenin', wouldn't you find yourself sayin'?

One've them where somewhere round about the place there's some fool of a poet tryin' to write up the evenin' in iambic pentameter, or maybe as a sestina. Or a sestina in iambic pentameter, it surely wouldn't surprise me none at all.

Meanwhile, while them poets get into a fight over rhyme schemes, over here by the fire there's that fool of a fellow Rabbit, sprawled 'cross one've them couches, with wood an' knife an' cigarette in hand.

How he manages to balance all three without droppin' somethin', stabbin' hisself in the foot, or settin' his own hair on fire, reckon I couldn't tell you even if he managed to explain it t'me.

Mark feels like he should bow as well, but he just stands there, holding his camera awkwardly. "Well, nice to meet you, Rabbit. I'm, er, Mark Cohen."

Strange things in Milliways 1942, Mark Cohen 0.

That's the second time in a couple days that Mark's been pegged as from New York. He didn't realize he had that much of an accent. Then again, he has lived in Alphabet City for almost three years now.

He nods. "Yes. Alphabet City, actually, South end of Manhattan." He shrugs. "I rather like it."
