    Is picking one kind of cop - grounded, wingbat, arrogant, whtatever, generally the way to go? Is there any downside to just saying whatever crazi ass thing seems like it will lead to the most interesting outcome? still haven't really deccided that.

    Little bummed I didn't get the boots. I don't remembver every dealing with Evarte or Phrenologyhead last time, I'm like 90% sure I shot the body down and stole the boots but idk if that memory is right and I didn't get much further than that because I was too turbo-depressed to handle the deep emotionally resonant gameplay of being a totally lost soul who at the bottom of the well of wells with no clear way up.

      I just haven't seen any larger angle on the killing. Like, I imagine there must be more to it than just "dockworkers kill merc", but I haven't seen anything leading in that direction so idk what to make of it.

      No defensive wounds, though. How does someone in that much armor just go quietly? Yeah, you could sit on him, but folks don't just wander around in armor, shit's heavy and uncomfortable. Either they had the job on him and got a lot of real big guys to sit on him, or he wasn't conscious when they strung him up. But then, what, was he driking with them? With his helmet on? idk, very weird. Lots of questions. Lots of questions.
