Warren gallops down the stairs, hand tightly around the cerebral dampener in his left pocket.

* A blur of faint red shoots across the bar and slows behind Warren. A small red blob executes a perfectly shaped U turn and then slides onto his back furtively. As he continues to run, a thin red line ghosts out behind him, accurately mapping his path to a length of about ten feet *

Warren spies something red out of the corner of his little eye, and ducks because it must be laser!

* The line skilfully dips down with his movement and screeches silently to a halt. Suddenly it glows redder than usual and contorts in embarrassment. In the hasty replication procedure the original!blob™ underwent to create linelet 1.1, it forgot to add the requisite drop shadow element. The linelet draws quickly up to Warren's back to cover its nakedness *

Warren whirls around to start at...a red line. Pointing at him.

"Um..."

He moves to the left.

* Getting over its coyness, the linelet decides to have a little fun. It tracks his exact movement, but in the other direction, mirroring his sidestep by tracing to the right. The line's sense of humor leaves something to be desired *

Warren raises an eyebrow, and moves to the right as well. Just to see...

* The linelet is not bound by the same rules of protocol which the original!blob™ must abide by. Being quite the comedian, it moves to the left. Then, as Warren watches, it decides to put on a flamboyant show, stretching itself out to its full ten feet of glorious redness, and curving itself gracefully all the way around him. It meets itself at the point where it attaches to his back. If someone were looking down at Warren from directly above, they would see a big translucent heart shape drawn around him *

Warren grins.

"Okay, this is so totally cool."

* The linelet bobs up and down happily. As a grand finale, it shortens itself into his back and then traces into a well formed on his shirt. It's the letterman look. Perfect for those Todd conversations *
