Across from me at the next row of supports Jim raised his hand and touched his fingers to his thumb a few times, imitating an opening and closing beak. Negotiate. He wanted me to engage a lunatic who had already turned four people into smoking meat. Okay. I could do that. โAlright, Jeremy!โ I yelled into the night. โGive me the salamander and I wonโt cut your head off!โ Jim put his hand over his face and did some shaking. I thought he was laughing, but I couldnโt be sure.
