Puck's a scavenger in the husk of what used to be Los Angeles.
There's work there. Not much of it honest. She's been there long enough to know what trouble looks like and how to avoid it. And she knows better than to trust any evergreen who comes making stupid promises. Living comes first.
She's pragmatic, but that has its own sort of problems. Especially when money outweighs the reasons to say no.
