53 - Action/Phone

[The day after this delightful exchange, Pokey is understandably kind of on edge. And, being Pokey, he deals with that as well as one could expect.

Which is to say, extraordinarily poorly.]

[Hey not!family. Today you'll find Pokey searching and rummaging through every square inch in and around outside the house. And I mean every square inch. He is, quite paranoidly, looking in every cupboard, out every window, in every closet, and pretty much going everywhere he can in the house, searching. Whatever he's searching for, he doesn't seem particularly content with the results.

Which is why he's also searching around everywhere outside.

Over. And over. And over again. Just going over everything repeatedly, as if expecting something to pop out at him each time or something different to happen.]

So. Alright.

Let's say you have pretty ample suspicion that someone is spying on and/or stalking you. Anyone got any good ideas on, you know, how to avoid it or catch the guy doing it? Like, you've never seen the person stalking you before for certain, but you know they're there?

I mean. Not that I have a problem. It's just kind of a question of interest.

Phone - Filtered to Slugger

The jerkwad knows my name and where I live and who I know.








Sorry.

Hey. Hey squirt. I really, really need you to answer this if you here me.

I need to know. Are you the only non-drone in your house?

[Not looking up from his search.]

Anything.

[Yeah still not really answering the question.]

[greatestmanll40.livejournal.com]

[Just gonna continue watching the boy's search.]

Anything in particular?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

For taps or something that might be spying on me.

Either help or shut up.

[greatestmanll40.livejournal.com]

And just who do you think is trying to spy on you?

[Lex will step forward to take a look for himself.]

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Some toolbag called Black Mage. Real jackhole.

[Lex haet wizards]

Why didn't you say so.

I could easily help provide you with provisions or weaponry against such magical beings.

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Yeah? What've you got?

[greatestmanll40.livejournal.com]

[Lex sits down.]

The major weakness of most wizards is they must recite their spells, so the easiest way to dispose them is through the element of surprise. Such as shooting them from a distance. They usually cannot sense attacks outside their range of sight.

I have been contemplating weaponry to disable or otherwise imprison our enemies in this deathless prison. Until then, I could easily supply you with a personal force-field or any number of defensive devices.

I confess that I'm not entirely sure how a wizard could 'tap' you, but I could also provide you with traditional bugs to spy on him first.

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Or hitting them in the head works just as well.

I can make traditional bugs well enough myself. He could be using divination, but he could have also left small things around the area that'd work as some kind of surveillance. Minor things he could have enchanted and left a mark on so he could watch.

[greatestmanll40.livejournal.com]

If that's the case there should be an emblem or mystical marking.

More than likely a pentagram or satanic styled symbol if using evil magic.

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Maybe, but that's kind of depending on if it works the same in his world as it does in ours. I mean, it'll probably still be a sign, but pentagrams can't be in every world, can they?

[Which he actually knows is slightly a lie. In each world and time period, there can be constants, and they can be large or they can be small.]
