brain inside. Must map my escape but donтАЩt think about it. Think about
death to hide my plan. Death death death to the Master Snoop.
He glared back at the woman.
Death AngelтАЩs midnight hair wraps a snake around her ivory throat.
IsnтАЩt she afraid theyтАЩll strangle her? StupidтАФDeath Angel has no fear of
her master. I havenтАЩt heard her upstairs before, have I? Think, stupid,
think.
Bearclaw knelt beside the woman. тАЬIf this were the twenty-first
century,тАЭ he said, тАЬVirgil wouldтАЩve been declared certifiably insane. HeтАЩd
have been put in an institution against his will.тАЭ
Trine frowned as she stood. тАЬHeтАЩs not quite part of the joy division here,
is he?тАЭ
Bearclaw nodded and rose. тАЬItтАЩs a fine line, isnтАЩt it? Because his
insurance policy had an insanity care clause, he was put away morally and
legally.тАЭ
тАЬSo the difference between the way the Fets might once have treated
him and the way heтАЩs being treated now is his signature on some old
scrim.тАЭ The woman tried not to watch KinneyтАЩs eyes as they gazed mutely
up at her.
The MentTech smiled. тАЬThe difference between DuoLab and the Fetters
is that if VirgilтАЩs bill isnтАЩt paid, heтАЩs out on his retro.тАЭ
тАЬWho funds his upkeep?тАЭ she asked.
тАЬPaid in advance by Tri-World Life, for life plus rejuvenation. The
circumstances are unuтАФтАЭ
тАЬCould I have a gurney brought in now?тАЭ
тАЬYes, tovar.тАЭ Bearclaw scribbled the instruction onto his scrimsheet.
The dispatching computer acknowledged with a green glow on the upper
bar of the notepad.
 Trine folded her arms and considered her find. тАЬHeтАЩs never tried to use
a seppukukit?тАЭ
Bearclaw shook his dark head, pulling a viewscrim from the file folder
to hand to her. тАЬHereтАЩs his file. YouтАЩll see that his personality doesnтАЩt run in
those directions. Quiet and private is not the way he wants to die. He
wants to go down in flames. Are you sure you can use him?тАЭ
Without answering, she held out her hand to receive the thin viewscrim.
She slipped it into her notebook, frowning at a thought. тАЬWho put him
away here in the first place?тАЭ
тАЬThe perpetual care clause was activated by his insurance company
when his last suicide attempt demolished about a kilauro worth of
property and killed a family of four tourists.тАЭ Noticing the curious
expression growing on TrineтАЩs angular face, he added, тАЬHeтАЩs a threat,
tovar. A genuine threat. HeтАЩs not an intentional murderer. ItтАЩs just that
when he tries suicide, innocent people are in harmтАЩs way.тАЭ
тАЬDoes he talk about it?тАЭ
BearclawтАЩs black eyes gazed back at hers. тАЬWeтАЩve never been able to get
him to say a word.тАЭ
She nodded. тАЬThe Brennen Trust has a place for him.тАЭ
тАЬI canтАЩt imagine where, tovar Trine.тАЭ
She smiled with studied warmth. тАЬGlad to be rid of him?тАЭ
The big man said nothing.
