Clean Jacket, Warm Thermos
The Cat Burglar · Fenn
The Cat Burglar has robbed every roof in the First Drawer Rooftops of something nobody missed, and last night she took the only coat Abigail can't cross a cold dock without. Abigail chases a rattle of tied-down tail leaves through a thousand lines of drying Drum wraps that boom when touched.
Abigail's notebookUp top. It was warm when I got it back.
Tuesday. The Drawer. SOMEONE HAS STOLEN MY JACKET.
It's the only coat I can cross a cold dock in, and it was on the airlock hook, in a locked ship, in a guarded slip.
The Cat Burglar's a Fenn. All the rooftops of First Drawer are hers, a thousand lines of laundry and a thousand water tanks, and she steals things nobody noticed were missing. Well, I noticed, so I went up there. There are lines of Drum wraps on the roofs the size of mainsails, and they boom when you touch them. I've run through about a kilometer of booming washing with a tail-leaf rattling in front of me and gray four-winged birds going up on all sides, and I've never had such a good time in my life. I still want my jacket back.
The people
Fenn
Quick, light, and limber, with a third eye-lid that lets them see in the dark.
Cat burglars, couriers, and stunt people.
