A straight man appeared. Webster- "'Sup? Tickets for Eleanor. I got 'em."

Webster- "Webster. Saw you at The Shadow Room the other night, huh?"

Webster- "It's alright but mostly the place is just close to my condo. What brought all of you there, that night?"

Webster- "It's classic isn't it? Some people like to read it as an omen for the White Death which started when the book was, like, ten years old. It's just a sad romantic supernatural story, typical of the Queen's Age, but with better staying power. Plus Lia Elman was hot in L'Étude de Feu. What do you think, Jason? 'The most beautiful woman in the world', or is the poster full of it?"

" Hey man. Thanks again for buying the tickets, I really appreciate it." Jason reached into his pocket and pulled out enough money to pay for both Eli and his ticket then handed it to Webster. Jason looked at the poster then back at Webster.
"Well... It's not like I would hit that. Nah, I'm joking. She's alright. I honestly don't think much of it."

Webster- "Androgynous? I guess she's a bit angular now. Lost some weight to, like, convey the sorrow of the story... Yeah, looks like if someone 'hit that' she'd bust in half. Well, showtime's in two minutes."
Webster headed in with a nod back. Inside the theater, there were few seats beside each other, and Webster found the only three-seat vacancy far to the side. Diagonal vision!

"Have at it."

"Okay.." Jason thought of the ringtone on his phone then he began to hum slightly.

"Imagine the sound of humming? Um..Alright." Jason went back to what he was doing and tried to imagine the sound of humming in the best possible way that he could. He looked at some innocent bystander several rows in front of him and visualized that the sound was coming from them.

" Hmmmmmmmm..." Once again he began to hum, imagining the sound and the direction that it would be coming from.

Something wasn't right. It wasn't working for Jason at all. Webster said something quietly - still much louder than the vampire whispers. Webster- "Remember the story from high school?"
Jason did not. Like Lord Demos, he'd heard that the story exists, but never got around to reading it.

Eli managed to make it work, feeling the same sense of insubstantiality in his head that came when he manipulated shadows.

To Webster, " No. Truthfully, I didn't pay much attention in high school. I was too occupied with other things..I've heard of it though, if that helps." To Eli,
Jason became somewhat frustrated. "You're killin' me. Sure, why not."

Webster- "OK. Short version of the story: ..." Webster busted a few sentences about doomed romance and death and fools transforming into plants. Yay. Now he could see how faithful the adaptation was.
It was easy in a darkened theater to for Jason to feel the shadows when he tried. At this point, he was coming to realize he had senses he didn't even know how to use. The slightly cold darkness he could sense in the air around him was actually different from the feeling he sensed in the warehouse with Duannapar. But whatever, it was the feeling he needed at the moment.
There was something else about sensing shadows from whatever he was sensing before - he felt like he got lighter in his seat, almost like his skin was vibrating on a microscopic level, just slightly. He tried to move a shadow with his mind and saw it start to move in front of Webster - shit, would he notice that supernatural stuff? The thought caused him to lose focus, sink in his seat slightly, and start over.
But it didn't look like Webster noticed anything.

When the Hey happened, Webster was tempted to tell the peeps in front to quiet down, but didn't say anything since he'd been talking a moment ago. Someone glanced around a bit, but just went back to movie watchin.
