Crowley had been in the grip of inspiration all day. The feeling had come early, snapping him awake in the darkness before dawn; it was a sensation he could not ignore and it demanded action. Wrapping himself in a thick layer of spells, he departed the sanctum. Shielded (he was still paranoid that the Banisher's were tracking the Temoins du Sud after their midnight escapade), and open to the Sight (and with a temporal sense more accurate than a watch), the Acanthus felt ready to craft melody and song.
He stayed out all day: driving from place to place as the mood took him. He played with a theme that had been nagging him since the year's birth on the shores of Lake Folsom; he tinkered with an annoying tune in Tiscornia Park; and made lyrics while catching an early evening snack, feeling mighty and satisfied.
He didn't notice the weird feeling, the presence of irregularity snarling up the direction of the flow. Not at first. He was too busy staring at the Tower Theatre as it began to glow against the darkening sky. The feeling of inspiration still gripped him, hanging out one more insight before the day was done and the musician struggled to weave that feeling into purposeful action. The growing sense of dissonance, of another beat pulsing in the background slowly but surely threw him off track.
Like an itch that needed scratching.
Sighing with irritation, Crowley dumped his bulging notebook. He clambered out of his van, locked it and stretched. At least the remains of his meal, all sauce and food debris and plastic packaging, gave him a good excuse to move around: he needed a bin.
He didn't expect to find other Awakened congregating near the anomaly, let alone that they were all Enchanters. That said something and Crowley could not help but guffaw at the congruence of fate. He tried to hide his cough behind a hastily raised hand, still casting about for a bin.

Crowley will be waring his leather coat and will be riding in his van. He'll have his cell phone, some pens and a thick notebook that contains a gestating concept album. His electric guitar and equipment for it will be in the van.
