Meanwhile Richie turns his head ever so slowly and ever so slightly towards the kid. Shamefully the first thing he thinks of is the mask — hard not to think of the old Phantom lurking around his opera, masking scars and singing his sad little heart out. Could be a degenerative disease.
Of course he calls it a "curse", but it's probably more a figure of speech. Watching folks fit as fiddles suddenly wither into gaunt husks sure seemed like a curse, particularly when it hits an epidemic. Got a fair few of those going around on his own turf, don't he?]
Awful sorry to hear it. 23, huh? Christ on a bike, that's barely living. And it's pretty widespread?
