  1. He turned to leave. I stood up and said, "Hey, Kincaid."
  2. He glanced back at me. I tossed the sleep mask to him. He caught it.
  3. "Just plain folk?" I asked.
  4. "Yeah."
  5. "Not supernatural?"
  6. “I wish," he said. "Vanilla mortal."
  7. “You're a liar."
  8. His features smoothed into a neutral mask. "Excuse me?"
  9. "I said you're a liar. I saw you during the fight at Wrigley, Kincaid. You fired a dozen shots, on the move and dodging bad guys the whole time."
  10. "What's so supernatural about that?"
  11. "In a fight, just plain folks miss sometimes. Maybe most times. You didn't miss once."
  12. "What's the point of shooting if you're just going to miss?" He smiled, made a mime-gun of his thumb and index ringer, and aimed at me. His thumb fell forward and he said, "I'm as human as you are, Dresden. I'll see you later."
  13. Then he left.
  14. I didn't know whether to feel better or worse. On one hand, he was an experienced gunman, and absolutely deadly in a fight. Human or not, I might need someone like that with me when I confronted Mavra.
