Evey was walking the paths of the island in search of her somewhat elusive boyfriend, if a man in his thirties could really be referred to as a "boy."  Things with Marcus hadn't quite got back to normal yet after the incident with the graphic novel, unfortunately, so he was a bit harder to find than he might otherwise have been.  The cold weather had disappeared nearly a week ago and she'd decided to move back into her own hut when it had, in hopes that it would help her think.  Marcus hadn't objected to this, but he hadn't been particularly pleased either.

She really wanted to consider this offer of his seriously, though.  She'd known girls at the BTN who'd moved in with men on a fairly regular basis and then moved out just as regularly. She'd stopped keeping track of Vicki's address changes especially.  She supposed in the light of Norsefire, any attempt at connection was valid, but it wasn't the way she wanted to do things.  She had however come to a decision, and it was that decision that had her trying to follow a man who knew how not to be followed.  It was actually getting a bit humorous.

Ah!  There he was, on the path ahead.  She called out to him and began jogging, trying to catch him.  Rollo had been her somewhat-faithful assistant throughout her search and he continued to assist now, loping ahead of her and barking cheerfully at Marcus.
