been around the world and I can't find my baby

[prototype_infiltraitor]

An old school police cruiser rolls into the Nexus, screeching to a halt, almost crashing into the Sign. The officer at the wheel calmly gets out, head swiveling, looking around on his way to the gaudy billboard. The man seems chipper; youthful. He grabs a brochure. Seemingly unconcerned with the running car (door still ajar), he glances at the brochure for a moment before once again looking around the Nexus. If he is astonished, he is handling it very coolly.

One question in particular occurs to him. He produces a Polaroid photograph of a young teenage boy, showing it freely to whomever will look. As with many police officers, his symmetrical appearance and amicable demeanor probably inspire trust in the average person.

"Have you seen this boy?"

Just dropping in...

There's a girl falling from the sky. While she's naturally scared she isn't screaming, instead she's clutching her necklace.

The reason why becomes clear when it starts to glow, the pale blue light spreading to her and still growing leaving a blue dragon in it's wake once it fades away. The dragon opens her wings to catch herself but is now to close to the ground to do much.

Thankfully she manages to avoid crash landing on any people, but the garish welcome sign in a goner.

The dragon picks here self up and shakes what's left of the sign out of her feathers.

"Owww. what happened..." The Dragon gasped darting forward to a small shiny thing on the ground. "My necklace!"

The necklace is smashed beyond repair and the dragon looks devastated over it's loss.

Work and Things Like It

The woman is dressed in a high hat, a stained frock coat, tall leather boots, a belt festooned with darts, bottles, pockets and knives. A shovel is strapped to her back, a pick to her hip. She leans against a pillar, one of those daggers in her hand, being flipped and caught by the handle again and again, idle and bored.

"What do you do for a living?"

A recent conversation has gotten her to wondering!
