they never broke the law. morally upstanding friends on a daytrip to see some sights had no need to. even if her boss was sending questioning texts to the best of his ability. some abandoned church, in an abandoned dutch settlement, in upstate new york. a few hours in the car chattering away. she never knew if nik needed the help, or wanted the company, but she decided not to ask too many questions. only the good kind, like if they could stop at the gas station for coffee. and what on earth they were on the hunt for. it certainly sounded like trespassing from how he pitched it to her—but that wasn’t really the case. in if a law broke in a forest and nobody was around to hear it, did it really break? she decided no and didn’t ask for a second opinion.
“so this is going to be something super puritan right?” the fields aroudn them didn’t exactly indicate high society. or that it’d been touched in the last few hundred years. she wondered if the church would even need anything in the way of breaking, it might just be open for entry. “we’re not stumbling on a lost thomas cole are we?”
