Silence is Golden
How dare they? How dare they not see her talent and cast her as the leading role!? It was the performance of her life and they said "a mime could do better". Marylynne was infuriated. How dare they not see how wonderful she was? Were they blind?

She'd show them. Mimes were...nightmare inducing and so...argh! A mime! She'd give them mimes if they wanted mimes!

Times Square was considered the crossroads of the world and the perfect place to pull this off. She strolled through the crowd, smiling and briefly touching each person she passed. One touch and they were hers. They stopped talking in mid-sentence and started pantomiming.

Marylynne smiled as she continued to walk around Times Square turning the lovely citizens and tourists into mimes.

	"It was a blond woman," Kal said. "I think I can turn a lot of them back." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"A blond touched me. It was odd because it was so deliberate." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"The weird part is why would anyone do this?" she asked. She reached out with her mind and changed the few people around them. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jack watched them come to their senses, mostly embarrassed. "There have been some weird things going on in the city. I wonder if they're connected." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I don't know," she said as she slowly changed more and more people back to normal. Sweat beaded her forehead. This was the most she had ever stretched her powers. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jack reached out to put an arm around her for support. "Later is time enough to talk about it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kal leaned against him as she slowly changed the citizens of New York back to normal. She couldn't do more than two or three at a time. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jack held Kal close as she worked, and scanned the crowd. On the other side of the street, he spotted a bright blond head avidly watching the people still under the influence. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kal continued to change the mimes back to normal people and after changing about half of them back, she took a break. "This is tiring," she said. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"The woman across the street. The blond. Is that the one you saw in my mind?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	notinplainsight 2009-07-06 08:34 pm UTC (link)
	Kal blinked and looked across the street. "It is," she said after she got a good luck at the blond. Kal was already moving to go after her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	jackmurdock 2009-07-06 08:58 pm UTC (link)
	"Kal, wait!" He moved after her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	notinplainsight 2009-07-06 09:17 pm UTC (link)
	Kal went after the blond, but as she drew near the blond disappeared. "Dammit," she swore. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	jackmurdock 2009-07-07 09:02 pm UTC (link)
	Jack was only steps behind her and he saw the blond disappear as well. Mutant, maybe? He said as much to Kal. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I don't know. It could be. Seems like something really stupid to do with powers." She sighed. "I have a bad feeling about this." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	jackmurdock 2009-07-08 09:39 am UTC (link)
	"This is the third time something like this has happen," Jack said thoughtfully. "A prank style thing happening in public. Not really dangerous, just annoying." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	notinplainsight 2009-07-08 09:40 am UTC (link)
	"Almost as if someone thinks normal life is boring." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	jackmurdock 2009-07-08 10:31 am UTC (link)
	"That covers a lot of ground." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	notinplainsight 2009-07-08 10:37 am UTC (link)
	Kal sighed. "I have a sneaking suspicious I may know who is behind this." She was going to kill her cousin if he was behind this. "We should probably get going before the cops start asking questions." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	jackmurdock 2009-07-08 11:33 am UTC (link)
	"You'll be okay?" There were a few still trying to make themselves understood. Slipping out through the crowd would be easy enough. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	notinplainsight 2009-07-08 12:22 pm UTC (link)
	Kal took care of the remaining few people and nodded to Jack. "I'll be fine. I have a feeling my cousin is behind this." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	jackmurdock 2009-07-09 01:02 am UTC (link)
	"The blond is your cousin?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	notinplainsight 2009-07-09 09:20 am UTC (link)
	"No." A pause. "At least I don't think so." Eternals and their ability of transmutation and illusion generation. Kal shook her head and wrapped an arm around Jack's. She started walking. "My cousin Spite paid a visit. Apparently Iason and I lead very boring lives in his eyes. I wouldn't be surprised to find out he's behind this." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	jackmurdock 2009-07-09 10:10 am UTC (link)
	"You have a cousin named Spite. A name and not just his calling?" Leaving the area was a good idea. Neither one of them needed to be questioned by the police. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Every family has a prankster and Sprite is ours. Imagine an immortal twelve year old." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
