::Peebles wallops Trix with his stick as soon as she appears. Just because he can.::

"Get up, get up you filthy whore!"

::He thwacks her again, and speaks quietly.::

"You sirens are the scum of the earth, the more vilified vixens of 'em all. Well. Apart from that Moony."

::He grabs her and pulls her up.::

"I'm Peebles. I'm here to shove your arse into the world. And tell you about your powers. Now to save me some time, you don't by any chance have any idea what a siren is, do you?"

::Trix flinches away from Peebles' stick, but can see that nothing will be achieved by retorting. Instead she smiles sweetly.::

"The Source gave me a description. Unless you have any particular details he might have neglected to mention, I think I know all I need."

::She looks at him expectantly, always willing to learn more about herself and her surroundings.::

::As an afterthought, Trix adds::

"One thing, though: What is smoking?"

"Actually, that was what I was afraid of. The Source's descriptions tend to be substandard. Here's a lowdown on what sirens really do.

"You attack partnerships, unions of lovers. You go for the dominant partner. You sing to them, and take them under your spell. You must then post to their lover, in whatever thread they're in, that they can hear the song you are singing to their lover. This will lure them to wherever you are, and they will witness the 'adultery' between yourself and their lover. You have telekinetic abilities, but they only work on people, not objects. You can telekinetically throw people. When you want to, you may kill the dominant partner with a kiss. It takes a few seconds to administer this kiss for long enough that they will die. You then, with a wave of your hand, may set the whole area ablaze to destroy the afflicted submissive half."

::Peebles pauses, and smiles, showing his yellowed teeth.::

"Is that what The Source told you?"

::As an afterthought, Peebles adds.::

"Do not double post."

::Trix licks her lips and smiles.::

"That's very informative. Thank you. Sir. One question, though. What do you mean exactly by the 'dominant partner'?"

"As a siren, you'll be able to sense this. Often in a partnership between lovers, one half is the more dominant one. This tends to be the male in most male/female couples. However, it is not uncommon for sirens to attack that whom they feel they can seduce more easily. And as most sirens attract men and are attracted to them, men are usually the victim. We use 'dominant' here because most of the couples around this heathen scum place are... you know. Immoral.

"As for smoking, it is a transport power. You use it like blinking or shimmering. ::Trix smokes to P3:: or wherever. It leaves some neat-looking smoke behind."

"Thank you very much. Where do I go now?"

(I want to try this out...)

"Why don't you just go to P3? I said it before and now it's all I can think of. Go to the bathroom, or the back alley, for a more inconspicuous entrance."

::Trix nods.::

"Thank you. I'll do that then."

(Why do I keep thanking him?)

::Trix smokes to a back alley just outside P3::
