Simeon opened one eye, probably out of habit more than anything. He smiled. His meditation had been successful, and he understood more about his new abilities than ever. He could maintain direct psychic conversations, and even "listen in" on those of weaker psychics. Even more on the plus side, he realized, the Spearow's excellent hearing and vision made living even better. Or not living. But still, he was hungry. A downside to the new powers. He must feed on people's consciousness' the way a vampire feasts on people's blood. And also like the vampire, the minds of untouched innocents were more tantalizing than those he had already drained the spirits from. He laughed darkly, although he felt no mirth at all. Too bad for them really, but a teenager has to keep himself alive. He closed his eyes again and took a look around through the Spearow on his shoulder. Unnecessary, since he'd already done that many times. But a troublesome passer-by might turn into a delicious snack, and, if he was lucky, a ticket to some necessities. Then he noticed a drunk in a doorway. Ah, an already weakened mind, an ease to control. He walked toward the form slouched beside an empty bottle of whisky. "Make way! Make way! Apprehended criminal!" Although hoarse, Simeon's voice commanded authority, and people on the crowded streets of Maiden's Peak made way for him. The ones that he touched made way even faster, although they contributed the quick cold feeling that ran through them from the sight of the pitiful, pale man that the officer in the trenchcoat was leading away down the street. (OOC: Simeon can still interact with Drake and Mimic, just meet him along the way.)
