Parley

Lost in Translation par·ley v. To hold conference with opposing sides to discuss terms.
Introduction xxxxxIt's always the quiet ones. Parley is polite, organized, curious and generous... To start. It can't all be an act. But there's something hard to place about him, a sort of hard underlying pragmatism, political ruthlessness, grayscale morality and an almost reckless willingness to compromise himself in the name of progress that make it difficult to decide what side he's really on. Or if he's on any side at all. He sees big pictures. And genuinely cares - when he can afford to. Often in spite of himself. Or maybe he's just in it for the thrill. History xxxxx Powers xxxxxParley works is an empathic conduit. What goes in tends comes out the other side - and often streamlined. He's inclined toward picking up and re-conveying sentiment... especially if it's someone else's. His own mind-to-mind communication, not so sleek; just an arrayed mashup of emotions and sensations, unable to influence much; when projected while speaking out loud, however, it's rather handy for being understood over language barriers. Things sort of wash through him from one side to the next, diluting the weight of his aura as it goes. He tends to slip sideways into peripheral focus by default and if people aren't looking, they might not notice him walking across an empty room. While it can be incredibly annoying when he would like to command attention, it makes for being an excellent sidelines interpreter. The deeper he takes someone into his mind, the less he seems to be an individual and the more it tends to feel as though the person he is interpreting is speaking directly. This obscuring of presence manifests physically as well... to mixed results. He tends to move in a balanced silence with a subdued creeping sense of weight -- less successful are the markings. In a savanna, rosettes and tawny fur go a long way to breaking up your shape. On practical application, against New York pavement and subway tunnels, not so much. No gold star for that mutation. Connections Benefit Mirror - Once-cellmate. Now roommate. Still mystery. Don't mind this. Emma - She'll use me. But to her own betterment or mine? Claire - A breath of fresh air. Like a warm saucer of milk in a dark alley. Shelby - Has learned to serve herself. Useful skill to have. Hive - Willing to get hands dirty for the greater good. Hungry mind. Micah - Keeps his head under fire. AND can tend the wounded. Should have one in every house. Like a fire extinguisher. Peter - Has a good head. In over that same head. Detriment Norman - Inevitable betrayal practically written into the job contract. But whose? Alice - It's only going to get more complicated from here... The Prometheus Project - Obstruct and undermine at every opportunity... but quietly. No Comment Caleswood - Gives good science. Jackson - Good people still exist. But blinded by the light. Nox - Good people still exist. But lost in the dark. Doug - Use his shower and eat his food when he's not home. Seems lonely. Kai - Fellow former labrat. Translated for him... even at his worst. Or should I say 'their's?
