《Chances of Death: Seven Decks Book I》Book 2 - Chapter 79:

Tamako and Sam looked towards Jen after she shut the door to Pudding’s room, and Tamako asked “what’s his story?”
Jen shook her head, saying, “I don’t know too much yet, but give me a second to tell you everything I do know. First, he still needs to stay in meditation most of the time until he increases his multi-focus skill. He hates being called Bob. Eating pudding and us calling him Pudding is the only thing that has brought him some form of peace in the last 100 years. He actually asked that we keep calling him Pudding. Action-man’s real name is Jee Hai Jowe (pronounced “G” “Hi” “Joe”), but Pudding just calls him ‘Jee’. Most importantly, he believes that his presence is placing us in great danger, and last, He appreciates our help, but wants to leave the City as soon as possible so that he can head to the Oracle Deck.”
Tamako asked, “How is he putting us in danger, and why does he want to go to the Oracle Deck?”
Jen replied mimicking Pudding’s witch-doctor Earth accent, “I be puttin Team Kelly in Great Danger. I must be leavin dis City Ms. Jen.” Jen smiled and continued, “He’s got the coolest accent. Anyway, I told him we would try to help him out of the city as soon as Slim returned. He was very agitated, but agreed to go back into meditation, so long as he could leave very soon, either with or without us.”
Jen thought Sam looked overly grumpy at being pulled into another stranger's problems, and before he could say anything, she said, “Quit looking so grumpy. I pinged Slim; he will be here soon. We'll get Pudding back to the casino where it will keep him and all of us safe.” Sam shook his head at Jen and Tamako, and said, “I’m not grumpy, it’s my gut telling me we need to get the hell out of here, now!”

Without hesitating to even ask for an explanation, Jen ordered, “I'll get Pudding ready, and let's get out of here now! Slim will catch up to us.”

As they left the rental house, Sam's luck skill didn't point towards the town and his casino, but pointed off towards the closest wild teleport pad in their region.
"Shit!" Sam exclaimed to himself, before calling out to Jen, Tamako, and Pudding.

Some days, I sell myself on at least a solid dislike of who he is and what he stands for.Like his stupid charming smile. His stupid sculpted forearms. And his stupid addictive cologne that leaves me light in the head and weak in the knees. He's a vintage blend of infuriating and intoxicating, all in one deceptively handsome bottle.Let's not forget his notoriety for emotional hit-and-runs. Dean is a bad decision just waiting to happen. I would know.Been there, done that... Literally.*DEANI remember the first time I saw Brooke Maccabe. My first thought was, holy shit. That's the hottest girl I've ever seen.

And she was sixteen.Verboten. Off-limits. The Demilitarized Zone. She may as well have had a blinking red neon sign over her head that read, 'Look but don't touch: Violation punishable by death'.Problem is, I really wanted to touch.And the even bigger problem is, nine years later, I did.*18+ for explicit adult content

He knows who I am. He knows how I look like. He knows where I work so possible knows where I live. I am not safe anymore... no where.

Maybe I should just let it happen. Maybe I was destined to die alone as a no one. With that I let the darkness consume me.
