"That sucks. So now I can see spirits. I never could before." Shrugs
as if he expected everything to screw up and get weird.
"So what else can you tell me?" He asks.
While he waits or listens to her answer he draws Akylah on a whim. He
draws fast. Hardly a few seconds. His hand is but a blur. Not only
that but he doesn't even have to draw every line. Parts of the picture
fill in on their own as if the ink knows where to go.
[Now I need something for Schad to find out about Akylah. We can say
the first time he does to someone he gets basic info but each time
after that reveals more and more like a puzzle.]
"Maybe but when I get strong feelings like that they're hard to
ignore. Sometimes.... it's hard to explain but some things can't wait.
I didn't hurt her and I didn't take anything by drawing her." Schad
says but doesn't add that what he did get was a lot of information
that he wouldn't have found out by talking to her for any length of
time. He decides to keep what he found out a secret for now. It is
intriguing to say the least though. He looks over at the one named DD.
"DD, sir, do mind if I draw you. It will take only a few seconds. And
then I will probably have some questions when I'm done." Schad says
giving Luc a glance as if to say 'like that?'. He flips his notebook
to the next page.
Schad feels a bit flustered as he looks at DD and puts the pen to
paper. He draws an inky sketch of DD and he is hit with a sudden wave
of disturbing images. As if force fed memories or something like it he
gets visions of a silver woman jumping and fighting a nasty monster
straight out of some horror flick. The pen and paper fall to the
ground and stumbles. His nose bleeds and his head thobs with dull yet
numbing pain.
"AHHHHH!!!!! What's happening to me!" He screams as his vision blurs.
This never happened before and he feels quite utterly helpless as he
looks around for help.
[whheee drama! here we go. The funny thing is DD won't have any clue
as to what just happened either.]
Oddly the effect of the restore works on him. But along with stopping
his bleeding something else happens. The sheet of paper that had DD's
image on it disintreates. The page before it can clearly be seen. The
one of Akylah. It's rather odd and doesn't look the way he should have
drawn it. It looks as if he drew things that weren't visible to the
naked senses.
[now there's an opportunity for Akylah to see that picture since he
hadn't shown it to anyone.The restore acted as an eraser since the
image was a culprit in what afflicted him. Lucky the pen didn't
explode....]
"What just happened? Why did I see all those pictures in my head? That
never happened to me before." Schad said seeming flustered and
confused. Overall he seems to be recovering though.

[That's not very helpful. I thought there was supposed to be something
special about the way he drew it. Not just to make fun of him.]
"What?" He looks down at the paper on the ground. "It wasn't my fault.
It's magic. Hard to explain. I come from somewhere else." His face was
twisted in a combination of concentration and frustration. Who were
these people and why did his drawings take up this kind of odd nature
all of a sudden. And no one explained the images. Terrible images in
his head.
"I'm sorry I think I"m in over my head. Who is everyone? Why was I
called to come here?" He sounds very confused maybe even on the edge
of breaking down in tears from being overwhelmed.
[Well I thought she was mocking him for his odd drawing. In-character
he probably thinks that as well. Akylah seems T'd off at Schad ever
since he talked to her on the phone. Which actually isn't a problem
because Schad is somewhat inept when it comes to treating women
right.]

He sits up and looks at his pen in an odd way. There are numerous
additional markings on the casing. Before it was a tribal stylization
of an Esper. Now there were additional shapes that looked like runes
of a sort. Schad didn't know what they meant. He had a helpless look
on his face. .oO(what the hell is going on here? It all started when I
met her...) Looks over at Luc.
"My power... My pen. It acted through me. I don't want to say I can't
control it but I didn't know the picture would look like this when I
started. I definitely didn't know that sketching DD would result in
this."
He hesitated on agreeing. It only took about a few seconds to realize
the prudence in what DD spoke though. He nodded.
"Then I must dedicate my time to understanding everything then. Not
just what happened but everything. If there's anything I can't stand
it's feeling helpless." He put out his hand to shake hands with DD
"I'm Schad Florentine. An artist by trade and by reputation." He said
hoping this would smooth things over with how abrupt he was when he
arrived.
"Photographer. So we both produce images of what we see. Very good."
He says and smiles. Any common ground was welcome at this point. He
looked around and felt a lot better. He looked at his pen and noticed
that the design on the pen had changed somewhat. He tried not to look
worried about it but he put that there himself there was no reason it
would look different now.
"Well I'm here for the long haul. I want to know everything I can to
help you. It can't be a mere coincidence for us all to be here like
this." Schad says hoping they'll volunteer the information rather than
having to ask for it.
[Eh? Did you just write yourself out of the RP? What's going on? Are
you bored? I kinda hoped you'd come back and we could continue....]
