Kaz was busily making a name for himself as the ex-boyfriend of "the Girl on the Bridge," as Karou was being called in the wake of the extraordinary melee that had fixed the eyes of the world on Prague. What made this one especially irksome was that he was conducting it on the front steps of Karou's apartment building, which had already gotten quite enough attention from various police and security agencies without the address being splashed on the news for all and sundry. The target was standing ten feet in front of them with a full international news crew, giving an interview. Zuzana exhaled heavily through her mouth. "Oh." Mik pretended to consider this for approximately one and a half seconds. "What? I wasn't even going to ask you to." In her most reasonable tone, Zuzana explained, "I just want you to pee in a balloon so I can drop it on him." I'm still not going to pee on Karou's ex-boyfriend for you." I'd do it myself if I could, but I can't. At least, not since video existed to prove it. Strange things had happened in this city before, but not this strange. Satellites had even been tasked to surveil the Charles Bridge, in case the… visitors… returned. The sky weighed gray over fairy-tale rooftops, and all the world was watching.
