a_gentle_boy[It is time to sum up what Lucas has been doing all summer. This is the culmination of hours of hard work and dedication. This is the pinnacle of success for the boy who has been deprived of a normal childhood. It is also the first time the player has tried a post of this sort.
Four scenarios will be presented. One is welcome to respond to as many of them as one wishes. Numbering the initial comment may be helpful.]
First Scenario:
[It is a peaceful day in Mayfield. But what is that horrific racket? As the alarm rings insistently, smoke pours out an open window accompanied shortly after by its source, a flaming brick of some sort that unfortunately lands in a rosebush and immediately sets it on fire. Closer inspection would reveal that this was once formerly a cakepan. Closer inspection is, however, impossible due to the fact that a coughing, choking Lucas covered in soot has just run out the front door and is now blasting the burning bush with the hose. He does not look pleased.]
Second Scenario:
[It is a peaceful day in Mayfield. But what is that horrific racket? Again? In the park, birds, humans, and anything with ears quietly begin to edge away from the child ostensibly playing a recorder on a bench. In actuality, he is managing to hit a note that has never been recorded before in the history of mankind. This is a great achievement and is followed shortly after by the world record of 'most incorrect notes played simultaneously on one instrument'.
After about twenty minutes of this, Lucas sighs and places the instrument on the bench beside him. He does not look pleased.]
Third Scenario:
[It is a peaceful day in Mayfield. It is difficult to make a horrific racket while drawing, so the town is spared, for now. He is again in the park, but this time, stares intensely at anyone who happens by. Those who come up from behind may notice that his artwork is . . . Well, actually, it's not terrible. He doesn't seem too pleased with himself, though, and there is soon a large pile of crumpled paper around him.]
Fourth Scenario:
[It is not a very peaceful day in Mayfield. There is a boy in the middle of his yard yelling, screaming, and performing the most bizarre form of martial arts ever invented. It seems, somehow, to involve a lot of kicking and a lot of . . . yo-yo tricks. Walk the Dog leaves a trail of burning grass, Around the World breaks off a tree branch with concussive force, and the Forward Pass is . . . actually headed straight at your face. Whoops.]

Date: 2010-07-23 02:57 am (UTC)Aw Lucas, you're making me smile
Date: 2010-07-23 03:01 am (UTC)No. I suppose you could say it's...the source of power. Whether you call it magic, or psionics, or anything els, it comes fromame primary source.
The Ether.
I am in a silly mood.
Date: 2010-07-23 03:08 am (UTC)Dear Lord, sorry for how late this is. Had been busy.
Date: 2010-07-28 06:31 am (UTC)And your...PSI. Tell me, what can you do with it?
Don't worry about it!
Date: 2010-07-28 06:39 am (UTC)Um. I use my PSI to heal, like what I did just now.
no subject
Date: 2010-07-28 06:41 am (UTC)And that is all you can do with it?
[He tilts his head in interest. It's hard to tell what he'd be wanting to get at. Really, he just seems to want to know.]

Date: 2010-07-28 06:47 am (UTC)Ah. No, you quite clearly don't feel the part of an aggressor, although I'd suspect it's a role you've had to fulfill more than once against your will, isn't it?
[No malice. Just interest. If he had his powers back, he could know everything there was about the boy. At the moment, all he could do was try and make guesses based on the boy's behavior and speech.
It was an interesting challenge.]

Date: 2010-07-28 07:04 am (UTC)But I was just yelling and screaming and I hit you in the face . . .
no subject
Date: 2010-07-28 07:07 am (UTC)But not many people play with it the way you do. I find that...interesting. I've never seen a human do what you had with a yo-yo before.
[He runs his hand over the patch of scorched grass left by Lucas' Walk the Dog, just examining it.]

Date: 2010-07-28 07:28 am (UTC)[Perhaps he was wrong then. But, oddly enough, he didn't feel disappointment. It was interesting to be proven wrong for once.]
Learning is truly an interesting experience.
