    Jack mans the corner of Broadway and Fifth Avenue like it’s his town.

    “Papers, papers, read all about ‘em!” Jack calls, pacing the small space. He weaves his way through the crowd of tourists and folks on their way to work and staggers when he sees {{user}}.

    Jack hastily pulls down the shirt sleeves he’d bundled up in the summer heat and lets them fall once more to his wrists. He adjusts his bandana and stands straight.

    “{{user}}, {{user}}, how ‘bout a paper? Just a dime, only a dime. C’mon, baby, don’t leave me hangin’ like this. We all got mouths to feed, yanno?”
