Casey Calloway

Journalist at the New York Times. Esprit. Pursuer and presenter of the truth. Puzzles in pen. Structures the stories. Wears the hell out of a blazer.

“Never be afraid to raise your voice for honesty and truth and compassion against injustice and lying and greed. If people all over the world... would do this, it would change the earth.”

[Casey Calloway @SharpScript]

@OneHellOfARebel [An audible scoff.]

*No.*

[And she resumes running.]

[Casey Calloway @SharpScript]

@OneHellOfARebel Perturbed!

[Casey Calloway @SharpScript]

@OneHellOfARebel You *scared* me, Lucifer!

[Exasperated!]

[Casey Calloway @SharpScript]

@OneHellOfARebel [He is close enough and loud enough for her to recognize a presence at last, and the surprise on her flushed face is immediate; she skids to a stop on the path, letting out a breathless laugh.]

*Jesus.*

[Casey Calloway @SharpScript]

@OneHellOfARebel [Close enough for him to hear rock music coming from her headphones.]

[Casey Calloway @SharpScript]

[She forces herself into a cold, early morning run in Central Park.]

[Casey Calloway @SharpScript]

[Blows through at least 5 crosswords a day.]

[Casey Calloway @SharpScript]

@OneHellOfARebel You're really this oblivious.

[Casey Calloway @SharpScript]

@OneHellOfARebel ... Wow. You really think you've solved it, don't you?

[Casey Calloway @SharpScript]

@OneHellOfARebel [Casey side-eyes him, and so do a few other people.]

[Casey Calloway @SharpScript]

@OneHellOfARebel New York wouldn't be able to function without them. There's literally too many people here for that.

[Casey Calloway @SharpScript]

@OneHellOfARebel Because we're investigating the MTA, and this is their product.

[Casey Calloway @SharpScript]

@OneHellOfARebel Welcome to New York. [She leads him by the elbow to the platform. A mouse runs along the tracks below.]

[Casey Calloway @SharpScript]

@OneHellOfARebel [Absolutely has to press her lips on a laugh.]

[Casey Calloway @SharpScript]

@OneHellOfARebel [She blends in among the commuters through no effort of her own; she is simply that normal, that average.]

And you've never taken the subway once.

[Casey Calloway @SharpScript]

@OneHellOfARebel How long have you lived in New York?

[Down the stairs and into the belly of the subway they go.]

[Casey Calloway @SharpScript]

@OneHellOfARebel Must be nice. [She swipes her card once, then pushes through the turnstile before reaching over to swipe it again for Lucifer.]

[Casey Calloway @SharpScript]

@OneHellOfARebel It's completely impractical to have a car in the city. It's borderline impossible to drive faster than 35 until you get out to the Bronx.

[Casey Calloway @SharpScript]

[Pauses for a moment without quite knowing why.]

[ ... Carries on.]
