[ The voice that snaps over the bracelet is sharp but bored. ]

Required: a number of test subjects for this ridiculous, useless power that I've been assigned. Willing subjects preferable, though this is not set in stone.

Compensation will be provided.




[ .. eventually. ]

Next time you want someone to volunteer for something, you mind being a little less vague about it? How about you let us know what your power is first?

text

[soulcontracts]

Being purposefully vague is a useful tool when it comes to drawing curious minds out of the woodwork.

text

[bitofajerk]

Also probably pretty useful for drawing people into a trap.

text

[soulcontracts]

You've discovered me. I've been in this city for all of nine hours, and already I have created a devious and well-thought out plan to draw unwitting ninnies into a trap.

text

[bitofajerk]

If you're trying to convince me, it's not really working. I mean, what's so hard about being upfront unless you've got something to hide?

text

[soulcontracts]

I never said that I had nothing to hide.

text

[bitofajerk]

Ok so what's your power?

text

[soulcontracts]

Body control.

[bitofajerk]

[ well. that explains the vagueness, but he figures he'd rather know about that from the get-go rather than have it sprung up on him. ]

That wasn't so hard, was it?

text

[soulcontracts]

[ No, Johannes, he's not going to feel it, no matter how hard you scowl at the bracelet. ]

Are you interested in assisting my research or not?

text

[bitofajerk]

[ Jackson's just smiling triumphantly on this end ]

Not really. I like to get to know a person first before letting them use my body like a puppet.

text

[soulcontracts]

Do me a favor, then, and next time, don't waste so much of my time.

text

[bitofajerk]

Not my fault. Next time, how about you don't come off as a creep?

text

[soulcontracts]

Request denied. Next?

text

[bitofajerk]

Wow. I'll be surprised if you get anyone to agree.

text

[soulcontracts]

I've already set three appointments. Sorry to disappoint you. Anything else?

text

[bitofajerk]

If anyone ends up missing, I know who I'm looking for.

text

[soulcontracts]

I quiver with fear.

text

[bitofajerk]

What did you saw your name was again?

text

[soulcontracts]

Cabal is all that you need to know.

text

[bitofajerk]

First name? Last name?

Actually, you know what it's okay. Not like I actually care.
