Character 15 of 22

Ziggy

Ziggy has never walked directly from one point to another in her life, and shows no interest in starting now. Every walk with her turns into a loose, winding investigation of everything adjacent to the actual route.

Ziggy does not do straight lines, and a walk with her is not really a route. It is a loose investigation of everything within about ten metres of the route, conducted at her pace.

This makes her oddly good for the step counting. A walk that looks short on a map is a long way for whoever was actually doing the walking.
