O P E N
Archie let out another low sigh as he shifted slighting in his position near one of the entrance stop the Festival. He should’ve figured Brandon would schedule him to work tonight, the man had been doing his best to keep Archie busy with whatever job he can find. He didn’t understand why the man was so vexing, and refused to bring Archie in on the big cases, but he could figure it out, given time. He’d dealt with a ton of men like him in New York, and figured it was only a matter of time till he got himself so buried underneath his stories he might not find his way back out. That didn’t mean anything to Archie right now, though, not when he was stuck on security detail for the festival, instead of being allowed to enjoy it. Making another sweep of the grounds, he caught someone from the corner of his eye, “Hey! You! What’re you up to?”
