Young hooligans on the march!
The danger boys were drifting closer in that way boys do, as though it wasn't even on purpose but you know it really is, like something you would see tigers do on the Discovery Channel when you're bored but just too tired to dig for the remote. Lynn adjusts her position slightly, to give herself a better look at them out of her peripheral; those looking closely might notice a slight increase in the tension in her shoulders, though she's doing all she can to look both cold and disinterested.
Wait, where the hell is he going?
Mr. Good Samaritan has apparently decided to be an idiot, which possibly moves him over from the 'kind' to the 'naive' column; Lynn can only watch in disbelief as he makes his way into the pitch black alley schlepping his dumb briefcase. She adjusts herself again, just a touch back to the right, to keep him in her line of sight in case the dark alley proves to be, well, a dark alley. She's not going out of her way to watch over him, but if say his severed head were to fly out of the shadows in a graceful arc, she'd like to be able to tell those responsible 'that's not nice'.

FYI, guys, I'm going to try to post every day if the story is moving that fast, but there may be nights when I just don't get it done (like last night).
That's perfectly fine, and the heads up last night was appreciated.

I like it. If it was $19.00, I would have rated it "excellent." But with barely 150 pages of content and a retail price of $33.00, it's just "pretty good" in my opinion. That's also why I rated Golden Age so poorly.
I gave up caring about the cost of my hobby a long time; well, not completely true, since I probably won't buy D&D 4e since I refuse to buy the three corebooks yet again. If it's under $30 for a supplement I'll buy it, corebooks now have to be under $40. Hmm, have to think about the Mastermind's Manual - what is actually in it? I find UP to be utterly baffling, and will probably only read/use half of it, but I still really like it.

I have not been in a relationship in, oh, about ten years. Recently, there was a girl in my improv class that I really liked, and we hung out a few times, but it never crossed over from 'friends' to 'dating', partially because I am so damn shy when it comes to dating; she moved to Ireland last fall to study acting in Dublin, where hopefully I can at least visit her. I'm interested in a woman at work, and we've talked a few times, but I so choke up when it comes to taking it to the next step :cry:

It's very important to act cold; no one gives money to a curiously warm street urchin
Being very careful to shift from foot to foot, hunch up her shoulders, and make a show of being 'chilly', nineteen year old Lynn Epstein watches the well-to-do head inside Starbucks after their stupid opera. Fat women screaming in Italian at the tops of their lungs? Yeah, there's a good time.
"Like any of them even know Italian," she mutters to herself.
Lynn had chosen her look carefully tonight; dress too light, they wonder why you haven't frozen to death, but dress too heavy and you get no sympathy. She'd given serious thought to going pregnant, but that was the easy way out, and if the cops came to run her off, having the baby magically disappear into her torso could lead to problems. So she went with a thick layer of ragged sweatshirts under an army jacket, a pair of fingerless woolen gloves, and a New Jersey Devils baseball cap to go with her usual jeans and Keds.
Keeping an eye open for the FCPD (and any other sort of trouble), she shakes her cup a few times, not even bothering with any sort of spiel; a young guy with a briefcase actually stuffs some paper in to join the pennies and nickels, but she's too stunned to even say thanks.

Alrighty, so Pulse is in the Theatre District to see a show, and Grim is there panhandling. I'll post a "set-up" thread tonight or tomorrow (probably tomorrow).
Will starting in his street clothes be a problem for Pulse, or does he just carry his suit in like a bag over his shoulder?

Matt, can you come up with a reason for Pulse to be in the Fens at night (Grimalkin has a built-in reason for being there)? If so, I'd be happy to throw a few gang members at you two, to get you started. You guys can take it from there.
To broaden things up a bit, I imagine Grim frequently heads over into the Theater District to panhandle from all the theatergoers, so she could be there in her civilian identity. She might have to help someone she doesn't like. :P

God help me, I will take a stab at this, including pictures of me in my gorilla suit (true story!)
