<strong>Myriad, LA</strong><br/><hr/><em>@ Marie's office.</em><br/><br/>"Great, the tool showed up at the loft. I'm calling the cops in New York, you might want to call that leasing agent you hooked me up with too. That guy is great by the way, that door is bloody great. He's pounding on the door as I'm speaking." Val said as she picked up the pen and looked at her agent. "I appreciate you helping me out Marie. You got this idea about a corporate identity for me was nothing but great."<br/><br/>With that Val signed the paper.<br/><br/>"By the way, I got another self talking with the Paranormal behind the storm. She's a little pissy but she's got some points.. and I think I just met the 'Animal of Los Angeles' too." She said as she described to her manager what was going on.<br/><br/><em>@ Street</em>(with<strong>Animus</strong>)<br/><br/>"And what about us Paragons that can't do things like you? We are just supposed to let you make them want to lock us all up? Yeah, I'm a Paragon too. If you hadn't shown up to do your little demonstration I'd be holding a demonstration and press conference coming out on the six o'clock news. You could have demonstrated your power on a town that wouldn't have hurt anyone like I said. " Val kept an eye on the ape, if it was the 'Animal' she had heard stories about she didn't want to get into range of it. So she stayed close to the edge, she's rather pavement dive a form to the street than get raped.<br/><br/>"Instead of demonstrating by say.. inflicting five or six F5 tornadoes in an environment where you were able to not only show your power but your ability to think ahead." Val continued. "So now, we got a new chopper on the ground, thousands if not millions in damages. You can instill respect without fomenting fear."<br/><br/>She had seen a perfect example of that sort of tactic, granted in a comic. The hero sent a message containing location and time. Then he slammed into the ground at the place and time to generate a seismic event. She had read that comic while she was working at a comic store during school. Shame that the economy had killed it.<br/><br/>"One of my bodies, yeah plural, got caught in a lightning surge. It was just a few cuts, but there are likely to be folks who got worse out there. Did in not occur to you that this town is the spin control center of the world? You could have hired an agent, and done this sort of thing in a way that would put you on the map with NONE of the issues you just brought to town."<br/><br/><strong>Myriad, NYC</strong><br/><em>@ Home</em><br/><br/>"Timothy, I don't do porn. And I seem to recall you were more than happy to leave me in Jersey for a dancer so I'm not too into you personally. Hell your ex was nicer to me than you were." Val said though the door as her other self slipped into the bedroom to get dressed as she finished budding. The hard part of budding was getting cloths to cover all the bodies involved. Right now her otherself across town buying a hammock and hanging hardware.<br/><br/>She was running out of beds.<br/><br/>"And by the way, if you don't bail out of here in twenty seconds I'll be calling the cops." Val added as her otherselves set about cleaning off and getting dressed.
