"Dunno," he admits. "But as far as I'm concerned? Don't say someone's dead until you see the body."

This place here is different. This place is odd. Hickey knows that he can't assume that the world works the way it does back home, especially since it obviously doesn't.

The moment they're back in town, Hickey adjusts his position so that he can lean against the wall of a building. One, it gives him a good view of the surrounding roofs and buildings, with the exception of the one behind him. Two, what the hell is that weirdo going to find to throw at him from a fucking roof? Snow, yeah, but Hickey is perfectly fine ditching this conversation entirely and going inside a building if Rorschach keeps this shit uo.
