Summary
January is killing him, he thinks.
“Hey, I was just calling to check in. Babs said you didn’t show on patrol. Don’t worry about it, it was pretty dead last night. It’s probably this weather. Anyway, I’m just calling to make sure you’re all good. Text me when you get this.”

Summary
They ask him to rate his pain on a scale of one to ten. They ask him to squeeze his left hand as hard as he can. They ask him to breathe into a plastic tube.
When they ask him to move, he wants to ask them how. They’ve chained him to the bed. Wrists, ankles. He wants to know what they’ll do once they realize that they’ve immobilized a corpse that won’t ever move again. But he wants to speak even less than he wants to know, so he keeps his mouth shut and his eyes on the ceiling.
