A spirit messenger finds Connor as he makes his way out of an office building downtown. He looks like a messenger, himself, which in a way he kind of is, except he doesn't deliver sandwiches or messages of his own. He's stepping aside, holding the door for one of the be-suited employees of the building when he feels the cold brush of something Other.
Which he greets with a great big beaming smile. "Oh hey!" Someone glances at the young man smiling at thin air and looks away, thinking he's crazy. Maybe he is crazy.
Connor is oblivious. His expression becomes serious, intent as he listens to the message. "Ah," he says, because he doesn't know how to send the messenger away. He doesn't know what he's doing at all. "Tell Shoshannah that Connor Whitman says hey? But uh, I've never heard of those people. Oh but hey maybe-!" but alas, the spirit moves on when his message is delivered.
Connor looks around, noticing and not minding that people are deliberately avoiding eye contact. Shrugging his shoulders, he continues on his way, pulling out his cell phone as he does to send a message by more mundane means to Alyssa Solomon (who will no doubt be regretting giving Connor her number in 3...2...)
Text: Hey! Someone like Mellie just gave me a message! (It's unlikely difficult to imagine his enthusiasm.) They said Shoshana Mitchel of the dream speakers wants info on Gabriel Ruso, Marco Landy, or their students. Sound familiar?
