Peter couldn't quite resist floating down the steps to the lobby. Not in the way one did when they were quite ecstatic, though Peter felt fairly ecstatic. But in the way one did if you knew how to fly and keeping your feet on the ground was just so boring. Nobody seemed to be looking, Peter told himself with a rather perfunctory glance behind himself. And didn't they say everyone in this building was a Creation? He wasn't quite clear on that point, but it was a good reason to float and so he latched onto it quite heartily.
I wonder what she can do then? he thought to himself, sighting a blonde woman in the lobby as he floated down. His half-remembered discretion crowded out by this new line of thinking he looked at her and pondered. He hadn't seen anyone else fly. Ally could do strange things though and so it seemed likely the other Creations could too. This girl, she looked like someone who could ... he just couldn't think of anything else besides flying. He didn't want to!
Wait a second, he said to himself dropping from the air onto the floor of the lobby as he continued to stare at the girl. Didn't he know her? Peter cast his mind back, floating through the cast of characters in his memory, peopled by as many nymphs and pirate queens as people in this apartment building. He thought he could imagine her dressed in a crown, or a coat of leaves. Or was it ...
"Oh! I remember!" Peter said rather loudly into the quiet lobby, hurrying towards the woman. "The audition!" he explained to her, as if she had been waiting for the answer to his internal dialogue. He smiled broadly, pleased with himself, quite pleased with himself indeed. Not a real queen or fairy then, though he had thought she would make a good one.
