    Speed lines.
    The white Helvetica surrounded by actual speed lines, white ones, radiating out around it, manga-style. It vanished.
    “Holy fucking shit,” Verity heard herself say, flatly.
    “You okay?” asked Manuela.
    “You come back from the dead one more fucking time,” Verity said, “you disappear on me again, I’ll kill you.”
