Guys, this might be getting out of hand. We need to help Marcus here learn to fight for himself. We are not going to be here for him all the time.

I say we try to make Marcus stand up to the bully, you know, act calm, talk calmly? Bullies IRL feed of of reactions, so if Marcus doesn't react, the bully will eventually leave. If things are looking dangerous, we could always make Marcus... well, walk away. THEN you may use your abilities to scare the pants off this guy.

Are we all helping the Marcus guy now?
If yeah then I move Duke Willingham's shadow around to scare him away so our client can have some private time with his girlfriend.

Light and shadow can work together, as a source of light can make a shadow where there once was none

Or make light appear right in front of the dude's eyes! But yeah, I use my powers to make his shadow more noticable. I guess that can help Vinc somehow.

Duke seems a little freaked out. The girls doubly so. Marcus isn't reassured, but Duke is slowed, so he's a little less scared now, and does feel a bit more powerful.

I will barely lift the rock right in front of Duke. Maybe he'll trip or something.
Duke hesitates, and Marcus quickly raises his hand to look like he's doing it. Duke is fooled by the trick, but the girls are smarter.

Marcus is plenty capable of holding his own in a fight. He's just scared sh*tless by Duke, what with duke being a seven foot tall monster and all that. Also, one of the points of this mission is to get the girl, something just scaring a bully won't pull off. You need to become Fabio. You know, the smexy Latino guy who has a pony-tail and can play guitar, and knows all the right things to say. That guy, exept pale and unattractive.

I modify Marcus' shadow to make him look tough with broad shoulders and muscles.
Maybe that would do a little against that bully and for the girls.

It's sad when the guy falling down the mountain with two broken arms is one of the ones in the least amount of trouble.

Well, I can't really help yet. I only can tell you what the emotions are...


By the way, how exactly do we level up?


EDIT: Also guys, lets make Duke run away scared. We still have approx. 20% to go to make him run away, becuase he'll be 50% afraid of us.

Duke is blinded! He falls back, and trips over his own feet! He starts scrambling back on his elbows and heels, and Marcus gives him a very menacing grin.

OBJECTIVE 1: Discourage bully.COMPLETE

Now to nab Janice and finish up the mission...

Oh. Oh dear, it seems she's gone as well. This isn't good... The bell rings. Time for geometry! Perfect! Marcus shares the class with Janice, this is a perfect opportunity for using those logic skills! Don't forget, one of you has the ability to manipulate emotions.

Marcus takes out his Ipod.
