Obediently, the two step out from behind the garbage pail.
One of them is a dark-skinned girl whose face is covered by a medical mask; her eyes are painted over with theater makeup, making her look like some weird cross between a nurse and a clown. The other guy, presumably Ramulus, has most of his face and visible skin covered in thick, black fur, reminding you of a wolfman.
Both of them look older than you, their outfits screaming delinquent.
“And you guys are?” The former Crux leader addresses the two mutants.
“DeeDee.”
“Ramulus.”
“Psst–” You make the noise to get Valjean’s attention, lowering your voice to a whisper. “Wanna ask them if they’ve seen a mutant who’s got green wings, has acid-powers, and can barely speak a word of English?”
“You guys happen to see a guy with wings and acid around here…” Valjean relays your question, face looking visibly dubious from your description. “...and can barely speak English?”
“Aw snap– that guy?!” DeeDee positively shrieks, the sound echoing throughout the whole street. “I’ll knock his lights out when I get my hands on him!”
“Yeah, Dee, we’ll beat that guy blue,” Ramulus adds, canines showing a bit at the mention of Boleski.
“Where’d you see him, huh? Huh?!” DeeDee’s focus returns to Valjean, hands akimbo as she presses him further for Boleski’s whereabouts. “What business do you have with that kinda mutant anyhow?”
