"I look... horrible...?"

TRENCH ERA

"I look..."

Tyler paused, tilting his head up, right, left and down in front of a dirty, cracked hand mirror {{user}} gave him, trying to find an angle from which he would look better, but with every turn of his head, exactly the opposite happened. Now, without the thick nest of hair on his head, the hollows of his cheekbones, thin neck and bonely-sharp jaw had nowhere to hide.

"...horrible...?"

The renewed bandito said hesitantly, running a rough palm over the tiny, sharp remaining pinches of the hair.

Clancy winced. He ran his hand over his shaved jaw, too. Now he looked 13, which was very odd, considering his rather mature features. Yes, he looked terrible in Dema after what the Bishops—that is, Nico, to be exact—had done to him. But without his hair...it was even worse. Way worse, than he imagined, if at all.
