Cassian looked at the flyer that was spreading throughout pretty much everywhere now and stiffled a bitter laugh as he checked the details. He would definitely have to watch this. It read:
Lampas presents to you:
Ride the Cyclone
....
December 21st - 26th, 20xx
Gadam Theatre
It showed all the actors (psykers) who were doing the musical this year. It wasn't like he didn't know about it before it came out, after all, he was helping out back stage before he died. Thanks to recent events in the past few months, he ended up forgetting about it. Forgetting a bunch of stuff from his life as a psyker. He promised himself not to get mad at one of thr actors who was there, he'd get caught after all, but he promised himself just to have fun instead.
He pulled out his phone and he just had to text Driver to manage the vilzone for him for then.
Finally after 6 months after his death, he finally got to see the product of one of his works.
Finally.
Tuppence looked at the mirror and sighed as she looked at herself. Sure there were other professional artists for her role as Jane Doe but Jeff would have got everything in place immediately with enthusiasm, joking about how Cassian's name would be in the musical. Jeff's make-up skills were comparable to the professionals thanks to his time doing it for the younger girls in the orphanage. She put in her eye contacts as Griffith walked in, hair tied up as she prepared for her role as Constance Blackwood.
"Lillian! You look amazing!"
"We have to, don't we? It starts in 10 minutes."
"Already?"
"Yeah. And you look eerily perfect. I feel like there's something missing."
"Thought so too. Thought so too."
The two looked at eachother, then at the mirror. The presence of two people weren't there. They'd never be there anymore.
"You know, I heard rumours about this villain. He had the same name as-"
"Lillian, let's talk about that later... please."
"I apologise. It's just that, you know."
Tuppence silently nodded her head before a massive cheer came on as the music started. 10 minutes. Jack Khalid was the Amazing Karnak, Adam Clay was Ricky, Raul Gallardo was Mischa, Rick Yun as Noel Gruber and Siwoo Kang as Ocean.
"Let's get started then," Tuppence spoke as the lights outside turned off, "Off we go."
Griffith laughed, "Make sure to hit those high notes."
"Will do."
Cassian sat down whilst he was texting Yuri about how he had arrived before the lights turned off and Jane Doe's voice echoed through the theatre then Karnak's voice started talking about phones; and Cassian clenched his fist at the voice. He could recognise that voice from anywhere, after all it was the same person who killed Jeff; Jack Khalid. But he couldn't do anything here, where there were many psykers... what was Uchan and Naeun doing here? He looked to his left to see the two siblings turning off their phones.
"Oh hey Gangu!" Naeun whispered as all the lights went off. Uchan gave Naeun a glare to be quiet and she sighed whilst giving a smile to Cassian. He gave a quick nod in response. He guessed that the two were watching because of Rick and Raul.
Then a choir of five people started singing Fall Fair.
