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."

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

"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?"

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."
