Bookends | |
The Beat / int_5313c266 | comment |
Book Ends: Both the prologue and epilogue use similar dialogue and are mostly unrelated to the main plot, to emphasize how little has changed over the course of the story. | |

Addiction-Powered | |
The Beat / int_f74e2a3a | comment |
Addiction-Powered: Played with, with Jake. It's heavily implied that the drug he takes regularly (unspecified, but suggested to be speed) is what makes him so lethally fast, but it's also what makes him so constantly unstable and violent. | |
