ARRRGGHHH. I think I may have killed it. And not in the good way.
In an attempt to make Newton less of a cookie cutter buddy, I’ve completely rewritten his character. Which meant rewrites to Paul’s dialogue. I guess the good news is that it is three pages shorter.

Suggestions? Comments? Which pre-ending do you like: the scene between Kali and Paul, or the one with Kali and Newton?
