    Stained glass butterflies surround Tuesday, each pane on their tiny wings glows a verity of iridescent hues, while showing glimpses of what was, what is, and what will be. When vulgar magic is cast, the fluttering cascade doesn't last, they shatter. Falling into dull, colorless dust before vanishing completely.

    In stereotypical and cliched fashion, Tuesday found herself once more on a park bench, (though this is a park she hadn't been to in a while) strumming her Baby and keeping rhythm with a tap of her toes.

    Her Star-gifted swanky case lays open near her opposite and unmoving foot. Occasionally bills are tossed in.

    Tuesday smiles, and thanks those who've just parted with their cash to keep her playing.

    Her grin's wide and a little lopsided, as she waits to see what Fate had in store for her today.


    Since we're in desperate need of scenes open or otherwise, come one, come all and hang out with Tuesday!

    The sweet, fragrant smells of roses mixed with lilacs emanate from her as she casts magic. The scent intensifies, bordering on intoxicating, when Life magic is cast. When Aurora casts Vulgar magic, the scent takes a nasty turn, to the putrid, nauseating odor of a rotting corpse. The stronger the magic, the more those around want to retch at the smell.

    She hadn’t been to the park in a while, close to a year in fact. So with the weather warming up, she grabbed a blanket and her practice hula hoop and headed out. Yoga pants, and a bright pink sports bra were put on, with a loose white t shirt over it. Cause some people still freaked out over sports bra being worn out in public, but whatever.

    With her iPod in, she heads into the park, looking for a good spot to sit down and stretch when she sees a familiar face.

    Tuesday!

    Her direction changes and she walks over, bright smile on her face as she takes out her ear buds, “Sounds amazing!” she says of the music, which was true. Tuesday had a talent. “How’s it going?” asks the Shaman as she unfolds her blanket. The hula hoop was set down, followed by the blonde.

    Campanella flowed through city streets with a spring in his step.

    The city in summer was pleasing: blue sky above, tall buildings glinting in the light. The city pulsed with people; an affirmation of life that actually made the Moros happy. His optimism had dimmed in recent times as the Awakened world shrank and he struggled through the guilt of his own moral failure, his own taint by the Abyss.

    His finances could not have been better, however. In fact, his latest sale had gone off without a hitch and he stood to gain a little renown for his action. That is what furnished his steps with their happy bounce. And now that the ink was drying, Campanella sought out some green space so he could simply sit and be.

    He had not expected to see Tuesday and Faye. Smiling gently, he moved quickly to join them.

    "Now this is a pleasant surprise..."

    "Thank you, thank you." Tuesday rasps to the blond as she sets herself on the blanket she brought. "What brings you out?" Tuesday asks, hazels spying the hula hoop.

    "Maybe not really. This is the second time you've found me Cam." Tuesday nods, fingers strumming. "Faye wasn't there, then, but meh. Is that-she the happy surprise?" innocent unicorn is innocent. ish.

    Tuesday might be rooting for Team Caye? Fampy?

    ...it needed some work.

    "So life. Is is good? Treatin' you two well?"

    Her attention is moved from the Unicorn to a familiar voice, and her head tilts to look at Campanella,

    “Hey there!” she says with a grin, “It certainly is! Great music and friends, doesn’t get much better.” Yeah, she considered him a friend. “Welcome to sit on the blanket if you want.” It was large enough for a few people.

    Head motions to the hula hoop, “Practice mostly. When the weather gets warmer I like practicing outdoors, nothing beats the warmth of the sun on your skin.” She loved the sun. “And sometimes I like the attention it gets me, making sure I still got it ya know.” She says with a smirk and wink.

    The second time huh?

    She almost snorts, “Me? A happy surprise? Well I like to think so, but I’m also not everyone’s cup of tea.” She says with a laugh. Some people were put off and intimidated by confident women.

    Subject change, “I can’t complain. Thinking of maybe doing a show one of these evenings. But not sure yet.” Maybe her age was catching up with her. Or she was just outgrowing her profession. “How about you guys? Anything exciting going on? And if there is…how come I wasn’t invited?” she tried to look serious but ends up with a grin.

    At times it is necessary to train without magic assisting you in any way. Don't be an idiot but don't cheat. What if someone strips everything off of you and you have to fight. Good advice from a kind women who will ruthlessly beat the shit out of you if it is needed. Which it was, Thrope can't help but chuckle a little as he jogs. Remembering their conversations and what followed.

    It's amazing what a few short years can do. Though Thrope doesn't truly grasp the differences between what he was and who he is now. Green glyphs forms and imprint onto Thrope as he enters the park. Continuing to neglect rituals.

    Eyes track across the Sleepers around him as he jogs. Existence is War and right now War is here. Their roaming freezes as Thrope sees some familiar faces. Shifting course the Arrow trots over to his cabalmates and the Mystagogue.

    "Nice day out huh" Eyes track from Campanella then to the women, and finally the guitar. Nope would not have guessed that.

    It was a good day. It was sunny outside, nothing tried to eathim, and he's managed to buy a bunch of vintage postcards dirt cheap to boot! That warranted a little jogging celebration at the nearby park, didn't it? So that's exactly where he went, running along the lanes populated with people and their pets (and their kids). At first, the source of some then unrecognized music seemed to be as good a direction as any.

    As he closed in on it... was that Deep Purple? And some voices?

    Finally, faces can be paired up with the sounds, and it is a great joy that all of those are familiar. The Mysterium boss-man, Campanella and his cabalmates, all of them (he wasn't sure if the strange absence of Chariot was a lasting thing). Still a little sweaty, he says:

    "Just when I thought this day cannot get any better! How are you? Oh, and Tuesday? You're a regular Ritchie Blackmore with that thing."

    Still smiling, Campanella joined Faye on the blanket, sliding into a comfortable sitting position.

    "Me? I'm well. Quite well. Made an important sale."

    For a moment he beamed like a school boy.

    "I think you might say that I've just made my mark and established a reputation around here."

    Campanella was normally quiet on the subject of his income but not today. His success had been surprising to say the least. And right now, he needed something to alleviate the sense of impending doom that had swamped him. He felt like he was surfacing from an unimaginable depth and gulping triumphantly at the air.

    He nods toward Thrope and Occulus rather than speak out there names.

    "Oh she is quite the player. This is the - what? - third time I've seen you with that blessed guitar now. We caught up in another park and another time in chapel." His eyes lazily clock their surroundings in case any one beyond their little circle of acquaintance had gotten too close.

    Back to Faye. "I would have thought these summer months would be when you'd be in most demand."

    "Well," Tuesday starts off looking Faye dead in the eye, "They're obviously blind and crazy." firm nod. Serious face.

    "Oooh~" Tuesday drew out, "Swanky. Good for you." real smile, it was always nice when you did something big like that. "So you're gonna get this rowdy crowd dinner?" a smile and twinkling hazels showed she was teasing.

    "Hey!" when the rest of the Skulk showed up. "Thanks Dick." smirk, fingers flying.

    "Yep, yep. Maybe my Baby's just a Cam magnate."

    And there was Thrope. She wasn’t sure what name he used when out and around Sleepers, so she simply smiles and waves,

    “It is a beautiful day!” her arms swung up over her head in a happy gesture, “Join us.” She invites with a grin.

    Turns out this was the day to be out she thinks as Oculus appears next. Again, she didn’t know what to call him, so there was another smile and wave,

    “I certainly cannot complain! Beautiful weather, great music and good friends, yup, good day.”
    There was a nod to make her point. “How about you? Come join us.” Maybe she should bring many blankets…then Tuesday could throw a mini concert.

    “Congrats! That’s great to hear!” and it was good to see him beam, clearly proud of his accomplishment. As he should be. “I believe a night out is in order to celebrate!” eyes look to all those gathered. Yup, perfect excuse to go out and have some fun.

    She looks over to Campanella and shrugs, “It usually is, but, eh,” it was hard to explain, “It’s hard to draw a crowd like I used to these days.”

    Snorting at Tuesday, “Obviously.” Serious Tuesday looks serious.
