Okay, Skip next.
Skip is small next to today's larger youth, but average for his generation. He sports a full head of hair that is the envy of men half his age, even though they don't understand his Bruce Jenner style. He has deepset hazel eyes that, despite being constantly bloodshot, reveal a smoldering fire within that women find irresistible. His nose is that of a Roman patrician, slightly askew from a fight in 1982 over whether Bill Kenney should be the starter. In body, he is slightly rounder than he used to be, but it's a weightlifter kind of gut, a small layer of fat over cords of muscle. With large hands and forearms and narrow yet flexible shoulders, he can climb like a baboon stealing a Japanese tourist's camera, a valuable trait for his profession. He dresses simply, jeans most days and a white Creedence Clearwater Revival concert t-shirt, but is not averse to wearing collared shirts if he doesn't have to button them all the way. He has small scars on his wrists from handcuffs, which he won't explain, and wears a large ring on his right ring finger that bears a garnet and the insignia of the USS Tallahassee. He is missing the small toe on his right foot, which produces an almost unnoticeable limp.
