Town Meeting

[john-adams-1776.livejournal.com]

John awoke at his usual early hour on the morning of the town meeting. He dressed with slightly more than usual care in his suit of clothes from home, broke his fast with a light meal, and headed to the Golden Horseshoe to ensure that things were the way he wanted.

The chairs and small tables were already perfectly arranged, but John dragged a podium he found backstage out to the front of the curtain. Then he bustled about in the kitchen area setting out drinks and whatever small snacks he could find back there.

Before long, interested citizens began filing in and he went up to the podium. There was no microphone because he'd never heard of such a thing, but John Adams never had difficulty making himself heard.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome. If you would please pick up any refreshments you'd care for and take your seats, we'll begin in just a few minutes."

Having left Hot Streak to find his own seat, Kon moved over to go settle near Logan, waving casually. "Long time no see. Sorry about that. Did you ever find anything that could be turned into a surfboard?"

Rose wandered in a few minutes after Kon and paused at the back of the room to look for the more exotic of her two boyfriends. Spotting the dark-haired teen she headed in his direction. She dropped into the chair beside Kon, and smiled at Logan before leaning on Kon's arm lazily.

"Hey. No problem - nice to see you haven't mysteriously disappeared, though." He watched Rose with appreciation as she came over to the other side of Kon, and smiled back at her before going on, "Yeah, found some big sheets of styrofoam in a storage room and made...well, it's a boogieboard, not a surfboard, actually."

"No, just got caught up taking care of a friend... who really ought to be here. If anyone out of us is the Law and Order type, it's Rob..." Kon shrugged. Rob would show up, or not. He hadn't minded that long, appreciative look Logan gave his girl in the slightest, Rose was one gorgeous woman.

"Styrofoam? Well, I guess if it works. That might work better with what I can do, anyway..."

Logan raised his eyebrows slightly at the 'taking care of' part. "Is he sick? Wow, wouldn't it be fun if everybody around here got the flu or something at the same time...?"

He was glad Kon hadn't taken offense at the checking-out of Rose; he hadn't, in fact, meant anything by it, two gorgeous ex-girlfriends being more than enough for him to handle at the moment. But badass blonde hotness had to be acknowledged.

"It floats. Kind of hard to stand up on for long, it's too light, but not impossible."

"Exhausted. I don't think I've ever seen him sick, actually." Rose piped up, grinning at Logan. She'd caught him looking, and took it for the compliment he was. "Now what's this about a surfboard, or something?"

(Rose's hair is icewhite, not blonde, for the record (: ))

((I know. Logan just interprets it as really, really pale blonde. He's got a thing. ^_^))

"What's he been exhausting himself doing?" Innuendo? Never! ...maybe just a little.

"Kon and I both surf, apparently. No waves around here, but there's the Rivers. When he got here we talked about seeing if we could make some waves with his...some kind of powers?"

[rose-ravager.livejournal.com]

((cool. sorry, wasn't sure))

Rose smirked. "Wouldn't you like to know?"

She settled just a bit, her single blue eye sizing the new face up before she relaxed against Kon again. "Surfing? Hmm, yeah, I can maybe see it. And it's telekinesis. Hell, maybe if you get it figured out, one of you can teach me. Never really lived on the coast long enough to try."

[hawaii-kid.livejournal.com]

"Tactile telekinesis, thank you, Rose," Kon retorted, grinning though. "And hey, you let me drop you from 200 feet, learning to surf ought to be easy after that." Skydancing with Rose had been an utter blast.

Rose grinned. "It's not like it'd kill me, or anything. At least... I don't think so. Never really did try that whole falling from heights thing... I'll have to think about that."

"We'd be glad to guide you," said Logan, with a bit of a smirk. "Takes a little practice to be good, but what doesn't?"
