Plot: Come on, Locke - meet a visiting spaceman.

Who: Geoff Benwick and OPEN (to Locke City characters in the main log; phone-in thread is open to all).
When: June 1st-4th, afternoons.
Where: By Locke's City Hall.
What: One of Locke's visitors from beyond the atmosphere would like to make acquaintances of some of the city's other less-mundane occupants.



[Geoff had given his directions vaguely to the handful who'd been involved in cleaning up yesterday. He said he'd be by City Hall, starting at two, and that's where he is - close to one of the front walls, a ways from the door, dressed, as usual, for a proper impression. He's wearing a copy of the same suit he's been seen in already. As there's no need for them, he hasn't left a trace of his wings visible.

The suit, his look otherwise, and that aura he radiates have still caught eyes, and a couple of crowds of fans that it looks like the third of those things has already gotten him. He's turned away a reporter, or someone who professed to be a reporter, once. Asking nicely seems to have gotten him enough space to scan for the people who he might be looking for, eventually.

Speaking of which - anyone who does seem to be looking for him or heading his way with any kind of intent will get a wave over, a polite beam.

Either he'll wait for them to take their signal or he'll close some of the distance, and confirm they are who he thinks they are with an innocuous-enough greeting:]


Good afternoon!

What brings you here?

[OOC: If your character cannot, would refuse to, or just plain wouldn't meet with Geoff in person but you'd still like him to speak with them, you may have them call in if you like.

Remember that speaking with Geoff directly 1. leaves a person under the influence of a supernatural "charm" effect which makes him seem trustworthy by default, and 2. grants eligibility for a plot Echo.

Hi, um. My name's Brooke. I've been here for a while, and I've had kind of a lot of things going wrong with me lately. I know it isn't your fault or anything, but I was wondering if you knew anything about people dying from these pulses. Or if you knew anything about them at all. I don't know what you do know but you seem like you have a lot more answers than anyone else would.

[okay, cool. question asked. no need to worry about how much you were rambling, girl.]

Yeah. Is that the official name of it, the "phenomenon"?

[for a few seconds, she's quiet, trying to process the idea that even the aliens don't even know anything about this. that makes it alien to them. which means either it's double alien, or exactly how it should be.]

Science persists beyond species, right? One of the things that... I guess the phenomenon caused involved my right arm turning to stone. If you want, I can try to give you some biological material to study.

It's... crossed my mind a couple times. To be totally honest. [which she's not. it's done way more than that.]

So I guess yes, I want to see if you can figure out anything about me specifically. But I also want to help out other scientists, because in my field I don't really get the chance to apply anything I learn to the benefit of living people.
