The child tossed the fellow he grabbed by the collar aside, then sat in front of the one who spoke to him, bringing their gazes together.
Hrngh… I mean, isn't it damn weird that you can shoot fire from your fists?
Any ol' run-of-the-mill Fixer gets themselves a weapon from some workshop, and you think this is what's weird?
