OOC: think that was Meg thinking Cxone...
Momma Tootu turns and squints up at you Grass, the little old lady must be a least 60, her wrinkled white skin stretches guant over protruding bones, and when you shake her hand you have to be careful, as her hands are gnarled wreakages of former hands. "Years of arthritis my boy, years of arthritis. Nice to meet you young man." Momma Tootu smiles as you lean over to shake her hand. Her pure white hair is pulled back into a bun...you're not sure that you've ever seen anyone with their hair done that way, in this day and age. Her clothes are worn and faded, and she is wearing a buttoned up ladies suit coat from the last century, her small frame hunkered over an electric wheelchair that has seen better days.
Momma Tootu turns and smiles at Dora who comes and stands beside her as you three talk, and the old woman pats Dora's hand which rests on the arm of the wheel chair. "Yes Momma, this man is very nice. He gave me this..." Dora pulls out a crumpled 5 nuyen note that could have been the one you passed her...
Momma Tootu turns back to you and says, "A reporter eh? That is very nice. Everyone needs a job, even if they are about to lose it." She smiles and her voice sounds not unlike the sound of wind passing through a field of dry reeds...
She asks you a few questions on what sort of things you look for in a story and you are saved having to reply as the large raven lands silently on the other arm of the wheelchair startling you in a flap of wings. Momma Tootu and Dora don't seem surprised. The large Raven caws once swivelling its head.It could be look at you, and looking into the park, you are just not sure....

Glacier has combined many pages together makigng a single sheet 2mx2.5m and is drawing his big heart out. "Say I can not draw I will show that little man. I can draw best!" A snarl comes out at the end. It appears as if his entire concentration is on the "Sad People/Sad Tree" Masterpiece.

Meg clears the cafe - seeing Glacier she buzzes over to see what he is up to, noting his concentration she will remain quiet and watch - theres nothing like someone interfering, so she doesnt. The others are talking to the ol'lady, the girl (and a big raven) - should she just... No.. they too can probably get on better without someone else sticking their oar in.
Wait - for Glacier and an invite...

Seconds after the raven lands on the wheel chair, Dora turns and dashes off into the park. "Dora?? DORA??" Momma Tootu calls after her. "Always rushing off like that, whenever this thing comes around..." The old woman waves her hand at the raven and it takes flight, after Dora, leaving you standing there in the middle of a large flock of pidgeons with an old woman in a wheelchair.
Noah, you managed to work your way around farther into the park while watching Grassfire and Dora interact, and now see Dora rush past you, large raven in flight, right behind. Stepping out of the way quickly so as not to get run down, you see here run towards the center of the Park, where a man dressed in coverals seems to have just turned on a high pressure water hose and is beginning to wash the paved stones that serve as a walkway.
Dora comes to a halt about half way between yourself and the worker and throws here hands into the air. She seems to be talking or something, though you are a little far away to hear clearly.
Reaction tests please Noah and Grassfire....
Meg, you notice the little girl go running off, followed by the crow towards the center of the park. Tapping Glacier on the shoulder you also make him aware of whats going on.
(Doing anything spectacular at this point anyone?)

Hunh, wha...Who are you little one? Oh I remember you. You are... Mag? Peg? Meg. That's right, I got caught up in drawing. What do you want? Oh little girl is doing something. We go now?
Glacier will stand up and collect the rather simple and large drawing, putting the crayons in his pocket and rolling the picture. It is not finished but it should do what we need. He will then stroll leisurely into the park toward Grassfire and Momma Tootu.

Mind you dont get your drawings wet Glacier - looks like someone is starting a confrontation.. Before it escalates - i shall ask the gardener to turn off his hose..
she moves to the wall and casts a brief spell towards the coveralled gardener...
Meg waits for Glacier to take the lead - most people would notice him - she hopes, as he rises from the pavement to sweep chest high above the pedestrians..
then she will scurry to catch up with Glacier
Influence spell F3 ( she doesnt want to attract attention by having the image of Snake impose itself if she casts a more powerful spell ) casting 6+2 pool drain 5+4 pool
Cast [dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6]
drain [dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6]
She will Influence the gardener..... I can't use the hose yet..
Meg expects this to go off without hitches - unless 'big bird' interferes with the casting...

Both Noah and Grassfire are suprised when the flock of pidgeons, all 300 or so of them take flight and make a bee-line for the poor helpless worker. You can only stand there and watch as the large flock descends on the poor man who seems to be distracted by his pressure washer not working. (ever seen the classic movie "The Birds" by Alfred Hitchcock?) The birds swoop and dive at him, some land on him and peck at visible skin, hair and eyes. The man screams and yells, and runs for his van, abandoning his equipment. The flock of birds chase him all the way to the vehicle and one or two make it inside with him...The rest of the flock swirls around the van, depositing large quantities of birdy doo-doo on it, before it screeches out of its parking spot, windshield wipers ineffectually trying to improve visibility.
"Well? That good enough for a story Mr. Maxer?" Momma Tootu asks good naturedly....
Meg and Glacier come sauntering up at that point, to where you are standing Grassfire...
Noah, you see Meg and Glacier join Grassfire.
All of you can see Dora, laughing and smiling as the birds all land back in the larger open area near where the man was trying to work. Dora goes over and seems to be talking to the birds, spreading birdseed from a small bag at her hip. Dora seems to be examining the equipment.
"My, you are a BIG one..." Momma Tootu says to Glacier....[rand=51168596716047140996187526698375260496295760328065323743372743]

Stories on the telecast are the same - city officials driven off by birds - theres one headline Flock Off! Overall there is a feeling of good will towards the park, and some ridicule towards the officials.
Theres a corp ceremony to unveil a statue tomorrow afternoon. If the guy who is washing the paths down gets this sort of a reception, what will happen to the ceremony?
Of course the pidgeons will love their new vertical litter tray!
seems that the park is repelling boarders. But that can only escalate and someone will get badly hurt.'
Meg stands at the edge of the park, she waits for the girl Dora - or the Raven to come back to the group - when either do, she shall speak directly to her/It
'Can I come in?'
