You’ve certainly got a knack for misreadin’ a lady’s feelings.
In fact, Miss. Megido knows exactly where her fashionable watch is— it’s right here! As shiny, priceless and on time as ever. Why would she be riding a train just to find that? Honestly, the kids these days.
You see, she’s on this train because of a gentleman, and not just any gentleman. Truth is, this fella is not only a long time and fairly cozy acquaintance of our mob-heiress here, but he’s also one of New York’s finest accountants— and by finest, we mean he can make anything disappear into the lines of his books. Turns out, that kinda talent is quite sought after, especially by those perps with things to hide.
You can only play with that fire for so long, however, and Miss. Megido knew that it was only going to be a matter of time until she was sitting this very train compartment, waiting to bargain with some thug for his life or a sum of money so significant it would make your nose bleed just thinkin’ about it.
> SQUINT HARDER AT SILHOUETTE OF THE ACCOUNTANT.
Yes, Aradia Megido.
Italian. Reluctant heiress and social butterfly of the Megido family. Likes cherries, martinis and the occasional slow dance.
To say that this family has dealt in ‘shady dealings’ of sorts would misrepresent the true severity of these ‘shady dealings’, although this fashionable broad has little to do with any of such distasteful manners. To be honest, she’d prefer if she had no mob connections at all, to the dismay of her rather important father— but anyway, we digress from the adventure at hand. The exciting adventure.
Maybe exciting is a misnomer. To be honest, Miss. Megido is on this train because she’s looking for something.
> LOOK FOR FASHIONABLE WATCH.
Oh, goodness, she didn’t like that at all. Then again, who really likes to be called ‘Gertrude’? Calm down, missy! You better try that again, son. Think harder this time.
> ARADIA MEGIDO.
The fashionable broad is fairly unimpressed that you’re trying to find out about her exciting adventure without even knowing what she’s called. How uncouth. Well, you might as well try and give it a shot—
> GERTRUDE MERRYWEATHER.
You see a fashionable broad sitting in a train compartment. It’s not a particularly special compartment, but at least it’s not peasant class. Peasant class at night-time. Ew. It just so happens that this specific fashionable broad has just embarked upon a great adventure!
