Adalina Schellenger could be heard in the afternoon and evening repeat of a talk radio station local show. Her interviewer was a woman known for her obnoxious questions, but the first few questions and small-talk was very tame and calm... Interviewer: "...You recently threw the proverbial gauntlet with the release of your genetic testing." Adalina: "I'll throw a real one if you have one." Interviewer: "Maybe that would help. Only a handful of public companies have taken your cue. Did you anticipate a stronger reaction?" Adalina: "Anticipate? No. I did hope that New Waverly could set the example for the rest of the country. To let humans make an educated decision about where they spend their money, where they choose to work." Interviewer: "Now, it seems like this is something super-humans could really get behind, because they could also choose to support super-human businesses." Adalina: "Well, that--" Interviewer: "Even your opponents have to admit it's incredibly bi-partisan of you." Adalina: "Mutant transparency has no basis in politics whatsoever, so I suppose the topic is bi-partisan to begin with." Interviewer: "Amazing what will encourage politicians to reach across the aisle. Now, Ms. Schellenger. I'm throwing you a curve ball. I know you hate those." Adalina: "I love them." Interviewer: "A girl couldn't ask for a better segue. Now, you've been seeing someone, haven't you? I think we're all just dying to know when we can expect to see a ring on that finger during your next fundraiser event." Adalina: "...I'd really prefer we stay on topic." Interviewer: "Absolutely. I agree. Which is why I'm wondering: with the violations the UHF makes against the first amendment alone, not to mention how many of its alleged members are career criminals, wouldn't having a relationship with a police officer be a conflict of interest for the department?" Adalina: "It could be. If that was the case. Can we continue?" Interviewer: "I just assumed you would want to set an example of transparency for our listeners." Adalina: "..." Interviewer: "I'm being told we might be able to get him on the line to join us. Officer? Officer Bre--" The alarmingly loud thump of something heavy hitting a microphone was followed by a series of crashes and a sharp cry of surprise. Adalina's voice could be heard beginning a muffled threat, and then the pre-recorded technical difficulty message took the place of the interview. When it stopped, a familiar radio personality apologized for the interruption and continued with the news hour as if nothing had happened. An hour later, Adalina waited impatiently for her father to bail her out of jail. |
