Phil DeGlass

Blind busker

0 · 442 views · located in Main Street

a character in “The Multiverse”, as played by Purplesprout

Description

An elderly gentleman who will be familiar to anyone who regularly wanders down Main Street for his Joseph's Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat style of dress and nostalgic English folk tunes.
Registered blind, never goes anywhere without his cane, his guitar or his harmonica.
Rents a flat just off Main Street, which he shares with other musicians.
A kind soul, who, despite his disability and alcoholism, would be willing to help anyone out (or simply offer them a wise word or nine!)
Close friend of Jazzimoré.
However... he isn't all that he seems!

So begins...

Just outside the coffee shop, underneath the awning to keep dry, a colourfully dressed gentleman with a great, bushy beard and a shock of curly, white hair poking out from under his top hat, sat in his usual spot on top of his amplifier, strumming his guitar and singing mournful, English folk tales of the forgotten and the lonely.
Most of the passers by hardly paid him any attention at all, except perhaps to ogle at his garish multicolour jacket and trousers (although he did sometimes attract a small group of listeners, who would clap appreciatively and throw lose change into his guitar case.) “Thank you! Have a good day!” He would always say, graciously doffing his top hat at them, while his odd coloured eyes (one green and one blue) would stare blindly ahead.
“And because you have bin so generous today," he continued to one particular group. "I shall now sing ye a fine song, by my very good acquaintances, Steve Knightley and Phil Beer, of the band: the Show Of Hands. Here we go! (This one's called Blind Fiddler by the way. Now I knows I'm not much of a fiddler, but I am as blind as an Origin Fruit Bat, so there you are!)"

#I lost my eyes in a Blacksmith's shop in the year of '46
I was working on a revolver and it was out of fix
I am so sad and lonely and I'm condemned to roam
'cause I am the blind fiddler and I'm a great long way from home
Well I've been down to Knoxville and I've talked to Doctor Lane
He operated on one of my eyes but nothing could be gained
I am so sad and lonely and I'm condemned to roam
'cause I am the blind fiddler and I'm a great long way from home
Well I've got a wife and three little kids and they depend on me
They're sharing all my sorrows where ever they may be
And I hope that they'll be careful as through this life they roam
As I am the blind fiddler and I cannot help them
I lost my eyes in a Blacksmith's shop in the year of '46
Working on a revolver that was out of fix
I am so sad and lonely and I'm condemned to roam
'cause I am the blind fiddler and I'm a great long way from home.#

Aneres Coreveon wasn't dressed as obscurely as she would have liked to believe. The shimmering white kimono-style overlayer embroidered with golden moons down the sleeves, the long-hemmed fringe coming to rest just above the hemline of golden bell-bottoms. Beneath was a plain white top. A golden chain poked out from the collar but the rest of it was tucked beneath the shirt.

There was nothing Aneres could do about the bodyguards who followed her, but she had grown used to that to some degree. At least they let her style them at this point. It made everyone's job easier.

Aneres flicked golden braids to look one way up the street, then the other, then back again. A grunt from one of the bodyguards signaled that it was alright to cross. Halfway across the street she felt a slight tremor of energy. The bodyguards picked up their pace and hurried Aneres across. She didn't protest. They came to stop a stone's throw from a mercedes, a man perched atop the back.

"Did you feel that?" Aneres asked the man, half looking down her nose despite the fact that he was literally seated higher up than where she stood. Her tone wasn't pretentious but there was something about it that dripped with royalty.

"Bristol, very nice to meet you," Aneres extended her own hand and delicately gripped his. She frowned upon hearing that he didn't know what it was either.

"I am Aneres, as I prefer to be called," She regally addressed Bristol with a smile, "Princess of Aurealas. A pleasure to meet you. Is that what brings you here? Looking for the source of the disturbance? I will admit I haven't felt it anywhere else but here."

One of her Over's coughed. She rolled her eyes. They were always concerned she would reveal too much. Aneres had yet to do so.

As Peter continues down the street in his heavy armor, he glances around. He's searching for someone, even if it takes him forever to find them. All he knows is that they're somewhere in this city. In his momentary thought, his eyes pass over a few people, one of them being the very person he was looking for. They should recognize him easily enough, though, so maybe this mistake won't cost him anything. He turns on his radio, rapidly tuning through frequencies until he finds one, a simple music station. He listens as he advances further down the street.

In a little cafe, just the other side of the border...

Leviathan roared in fury as it burst from the shadows, an incredible thing considering its size. Looming over the historic district of Main Street, LEVIATHAN had once again emerged.

WHO... DISTURBS... MY... SLUMBER?
it rumbled, drawing upon ancient sands of nostalgia. The windows of Gambit's Bar rattled, surely drawing the attention of any inside.

Leviathan waited for the winds to return a reply, but heard nothing — all but the hum of spacecraft, coming from the bizarre area to the north. Having been asleep for over a decade in his own time, this was a new sound in a city that felt unfamiliar, despite this very creature being there at the beginning.

In a huff, Leviathan stomped off, stepping over one building before crushing another in his slither towards the sound.
