On the other side of the equator - Paris to Joahnnesburg

[xp_daytripper]

Ten hours. In a plane. Where you can't smoke. Kill me now.

At least I had plenty to read - still working my way through the disks a certain bastard gave me. Marie-Ange, if George suddenly disappears, don't panic, it's because I managed to find his off switch. Tho' I doubt I could do it long-distance. And it's a hell of a long distance.

Paris feels very mellow, which isn't surprising considering it's the city of love. Mellow and warm and kind of tingly. Johannesburg, on the other hand... earthy. Old. The city itself is very English - not surprising, considering the people who built it were from Jolly Old - and on the surface it's got a similar vibe to New York or Chicago. Underneath, tho', it's a whole other thing. Something deeper and older, like Cairo.

Enough powers wank. Got a meeting to go to. And nicotine to catch up on.

When you and Doug get back, we should try to compare city populations and age and geographical size and see if we can predict something.

I have no idea how to go about starting this sort of thing - this is much more of Doug's specality than mine, and the sheer magnitude is giving me a headache.

That or the visions are starting up again. . I do not suppose that mirrors bordered in bone and ivory and ebony wood mean anything to you?

We may also want to talk to Wanda - I imagine she has been to most of these cities, and while I know or can easily find the historical information, she has a closer knowledge about the socities and cultures.

Bugger, we're back to those great big charts again, aren't we? Ah well, lets me practice my stats for the school stuff. And we can definitely get Wanda in on things - the Boss Lady has more knowledge in her head about places than we'll ever find in books.

No giving yourself headaches on my account, but it does sound like one of your visions. Mirrors? Anything special about them besides the frames?
