Seize, but do not destroy the phone, use powers if I have to.
You quickly pull the phone out of the guy's hands, at which point he looks at you. Then you hear a pop. And then you're someplace else, phone still in hand.
An odd desert stretches out around you, the ground reminding you of a doormat. The sky is a rather strange pink, and the sun that shines in your eyes is an unbearable red. About twenty paces away stands the guy, looking mildly peeved as far as you can tell, though the sun once again makes it difficult to tell. A quick check with your powers tells you that there is absolutely nothing of note beyond what you've already seen in the surrounding area. Clearly there is some form of evil fuckery at work here.
Selina blushes deeply, but slowly nods.
"Um... o-o-okay er... I... o-okay." She couldn't stop herself stammering, even when one of the girls came by for their order. Shakily, Selina ordered a turkey sandwich on rye.
Rita just goes with whatever you're ordering without paying much attention to the girl, looking straight at you now.
"Okay then, the pact is sealed, as they say. Commence the wooing, then, if you will," she says, smiling at you genially.
"What are you doing, kid?"Alex would attempt to send Carrie to his pocket dimension with him.
The precocious little thing takes your phone, apparently jealous of you paying attention to Kibbel and not her. You respond by bringing her into your realm. She looks a little confused as you both appear in your little corner of the universe.
You also note that, as soon as you leave the stadium, the slightly vicious thoughts you have come to expect from yourself surface once again.
Steven continues waiting for the speech.
Ilo just keeps on working on that console of his, and soon appears to be finished, as he straightens out, cracks his knuckles, then presses down on what seems to be a key. There is no sound, but the crowd momentarily falls silent, and it's not hard to understand why - for a moment, you feel like you're in freefall. Virtually everyone in the crowd appears to be taken aback by this to a degree, including One-Eighty, who flips Ilo off. Ilo just looks at her, and for a moment you see the hint of a smile on his stony face.
"Dammit, should have taken the bet!" says your companion.
Kyle does the 'shave and a haircut' knock.
Todd elects to stay behind as you go over to your friend's place, performing a rather punchy knock. When he opens, the smell of boiled cabbage, spoiled milk and cat litter hits you at once, and you get a slightly nostalgic feeling for the time when you did not have to smell such a thing. Your friend looks rather sleepy. Must be because it's not noon yet. He invites you in without a word (though he does give you a yawn complete with severe morning breath).
(Note: you and any other player may feel free to define characters from their background on their own.)
