Cass showed up as they were finishing dinner. Ramon left the two of them together, as Cass requested. "Can you...?" "Nope," he said, making himself comfortable on the desk. "You don't even know...." "Oh but I do," Cass smiled. "Call this your first challenge - the first test of your 'angel magic'. This new body you have - you're going to have to learn how to manipulate it yourself. We all have to be able to change ourselves from time to time and you are no different. I'm not trying to be a butthead. You've got to start somewhere and hair is easy. Mind over matter, milady. Matter is full of holes - more holes than not. Learn how to manipulate the holes and what's in between. "It's all up here and in here," he said gesturing to his head and heart. "I need to go. I'm exhausted. Been to NYC and back today already. Sorry I can't visit longer but I'll see you at the premiere of the play. I'll even sit with you, if you like and we can watch Ramon be a villain together." "Alright. You go. I will try to change my hair then. Can I ask Ramon to help me?" "Of course! That's what he's for to help you and take care of you...and visa-versa. Good night dear Lisbet. I'll see you in Paris soon!" Apparently he had enough energy left to whoosh himself out of there, because suddenly he was gone! ***** Not really jumping around here, just trying to weave all the pieces together because there are three stories that are all meshing together - eventually. Cass, Ash, Yaz (whom you've not met yet), Lex and Nick were all once in a band called Parousia. It was his idea to start the band, because Nick and Yaz were terminally depressed. Cass played rhythm but then took up the bass when Nick left. He thought it would be good therapy for them and it did the trick. It was also his idea that Ramon take up acting, so he could act out his dark moods and dark side then leave them at the stage door. It's worked so far. Thanks for dropping by dear friends and I wish you all a happy weekend with no disasters, no unpleasantness and beautiful weather! Hugs, Ray
