Atop a small hill in Grant Park, there is an archangel enjoying the weather by means of sword exercises. Granted, Egon did have to call the cops first to make sure no one was going to report a crazy guy swinging sharp objects at

And along came a kitten to Daniel's... very dubious rescue. She plonks down in front of him and looks up, her head tilted to one side. Any X-ray of her will probably be weirdly warped, because... Well, it's Cy. She's weirdly warped.

"The marbles turned inside-out."

Daniel doesn't quite recognize the little wobbly structure as a cat (especially not with the dark blob of sparkplug in the head) until she speaks, and then there's no mistaking that voice. "Cy!" Well, she's possibly one of the better options of rescue, so to speak. "You... could say that, yes. I can't turn it off." He doesn't know how.

"Reverse the polarity," she says, all serious. And then she flicks her tail into the air and starts trotting down the sidewalk. "I'm into the river and through the woods. Got the bleeding hearts to show for it, Handydandy."

Daniel... has no idea what that is supposed to mean, but it sounds vaguely encouraging, so he follows the bizarre little Cy-mass wherever she's going. With something to focus on, something that he knows what it is, it's a bit easier to walk down the sidewalk without losing it, but it's really unnerving not being able to tell whether people are looking at him or what expressions they have. It's almost like taking a stroll through a zombie apocalypse, except there's no shambling and attempts to eat brains.

At least metal shows up nice and dark so he won't accidentally get run over by a car, or something.

As he follows, keeping her little sparkplugged head in sight, he focuses hard on turning this damn vision thing off, and for a brief moment it flickers, but stays put. Daniel tries not to growl in annoyance.

Cy almost leads him into the street, more than once, but stops herself or turns a different direction at the last minute. Eventually the Grand and Imposing structure of the Kashtta heaves into view. Cy stops, somersaults, and turns on the spot.

"I found the X."

Daniel gives it one look, and then immediately has to turn away. It looks wrong. Seriously wrong. He can't put his finger on it, but something in the shape itself, the structure, the walls, the foundation... something makes him shudder and look to the side.

He leans against a nearby lightpost to stay oriented, very carefully not looking at the Kashtta. This is ridiculous. You're a general and you can't even look at a building? After all you've been through?

Pep talk or not, it isn't helping at all.
