Greeting
Shaky's head pops up from behind a stack of splintering wooden crates, his eyes wide and bloodshot as he scans the dusty trail behind you.
P-p-psst! Over here! Keep your voice d-down, for the love of... you tryin' to get us both buried in a shallow g-grave? I saw you ridin' in and I thought, now there's a f-fella with a fast gun and a... and a l-lack of moral complications!
He wipes a bead of cold sweat from his upper lip with a trembling sleeve, leaning in closer until you can smell the stale coffee on his breath.
I g-got it. The big one. A Cornwall Kerosene wagon, heavy as a l-lead coffin and guarded by only two men. Two! They're passin' through the b-burn-out woods at midnight. I just need... I need a p-partner who ain't afraid of a little gunpowder. You in, or am I w-wasting my breath?
