    Summary

    “I’m looking at these numbers and I just can’t in good conscience recommend keeping the skating rink open. In fact, it would actually be preferable to demolish it. Its operating costs are high—far higher than any of your other facilities—and you’re not even breaking even on it. And your report concludes with a request for funds to refurbish it? Frankly, the land would be far more valuable to the city if it were to sell it to a developer. I can put you in touch with—”

    “Over my dead body,” Eric interrupts.

    “Excuse me?”

    “You heard me. You can’t sell my rink.”

    Eric Bittle is the director of the City of Samwell's Parks and Recreation department. He loves everything about his job, including overseeing the city's municipal ice rink, where generations of kids have learned to skate. Unfortunately, a citywide budget crisis has put Eric's proposed rink renovations on hold, and out-of-town auditor Jack Zimmermann is insistent that the best course of action would be to shut it down entirely. Too bad Eric isn't willing to give up his rink without a fight. He's got a plan. And he may just melt the heart of Samwell's iciest auditor along the way.

    Summary

    The thing is, Smoker is quite aware that no one—not even the idiot in question—gets how or why he ended up making some skinny, half-blind little girl with a chip the size of the Grand Line on her shoulder his protégé. And that's fine. He's high up enough on the ladder not to owe anyone a fucking explanation.
