#14-Cowboy
A young child’s face peers up at Jo — the child’s pale skin is made even whiter by huge rings of mascara encircling the
eyes.
We can’t tell if it’s a boy or girl beneath the wild hair, spiky with sweat and black dye, but the child is clutching a clove cigarette. He should look young, no older than 13, and is probably younger. Goth/emo black clothes. Possibly an earring or two, but this is a kid just entering that world, not “with a face full of piercings.”
Cowboy could be holding his prize from the gang initiation — a huge, expensive leather coat with a bull’s skull on the back and the Driftwood Kryptic logo emblazoned upon it.
