Whistling

"You want to know why? Just look."

At that quiet command, Orlando looks at their reflection in the shop window. Imagining himself that lone woman, he sees that they do look menacing, looming in their dark coats, his mohawk. "We look like those twisted blokes at Columbine."

"And every white mugger in every bad movie."

"Don't want to scare her."

"Try this." Viggo starts whistling, of all things. The tune is fiddly, all jumps and trills, Baroque? The woman calms down, walks slower, turns the corner away from them.

"Whistling?"

"Classical music. It's very reassuring."

"Would it work with showtunes?"
