Unwind Chapter 67

Risa

• Risa survived the explosion, too, but she's in terrible shape, "riddled with steel pins like a human voodoo doll" (7.67.3).
• Connor comes to visit, and Risa explains that she's paralyzed from the waist down.
• The law prohibits unwinding the disabled, so it's a loophole, and they both get to live. Yay.
• Connor reveals his arm—a.k.a. Roland's arm—and says he'll never touch her with it.
• She takes the arm and holds the hand to her face.
• "I know this is your hand now," she says. "Roland would never have touched me like that" (7.67.28).
