David felt a great pain in his temples as he locked eyes with Micah. There was something happening inside his head. The pain grew more intense, and David could feel the beating of his heart as it tried to pool as much blood into the brain as it could. Inside, there came shouts of effort from the booming, deeper voice of Mystica. With a grunt of effort, there came Mystica's shout inside David's head: "divert the subject!"

Reacting purely on the voice's words, David pulled his beer up, momentarily obscuring his vision, thus breaking eyesight with Micah. In the second it took for the glass to pass back over his eyes, David had changed his view to Radio. David flashed an incredibly false smile. Fear, he pondered. This is what fear feels like.

"So, Radio..." David piped up, ignoring Micah's mental commands through Mystica, "how did uh...you all meet? I mean, your story behind Micah here. And Alexandra. How did you two--"

He went on with some meaningless distraction, going off on a small rant of quick-paced, nervous questions toward Radio, focused purely upon not looking at Micah. But inside, a voice raged. And David could tell, though he knew not for sure, that Mystica was currently in conversation with Micah inside his head.

"Petty tricks," Mystica chuckled, sounding bored. "You'll need more than what was given to you by those that came long before you. Ancestral gifts, is what you are. It's all you have. Where will your life go after you've used up your tricks to fool humans into your company? Where will you go? Who would take you?"

There came a laughter from inside David's head that caused him to physically shudder. Nevertheless, he awkwarly propped himself upon the booth's table on one elbow, holding his head aloft, as though he were leaning toward Radio fascinated by what he might say. He was more than aware of the situation. But at this point, in keeping his secrets hidden, he trusted in Mystica, who was taking the mental reins.
