Poly and Shari went through a lot of trouble to obtain tickets for the
Miss alt.cyberpunk beauty pageant, but it was worth it; they have seats
right next to the runway. They fidget through the opening ceremonies and
speeches. "Let's get *on* with it", Poly whispers. "This is oring-bay. I
want to see some legs." "Yeah, Poly, I mean, who cares about world
hunger, I wanna see Johnny Fusion *assemble* -- I like shoulders..."
The lights dim, and a hush falls over the crowd. A single spot suddenly
illuminates a lone figure on the main stage -- it's Sourcerer, and the
glitter from the sequins on his costume make it hard to look at him, but
Poly manages... his legs are *bare*. In fact, he barely seems to have
anything more on than the "Telerama" satin ribbon across his chest.
Source goes into his baton twirling routine, and as he throws it higher
and higher, and in more and more intricate patterns, the crowd gets into
it, urging him on...
Poly, a little worse for the shots of whiskey before the show, stands up
as Sourcerer finishes his routine to great applause, and waving a $10.00
bill she shouts: "Hey Sourcerer, I loved your *baton*, if you'll come
over here and show it to me, this is yours!" Always looking for busfare,
and laundry money, Sourcerer prances over to the unstable Poly, and
twirls his baton like a buzzsaw, just for her. She just manages to tuck
the bill into his g-string, when Shari pulls her away, and prevents her
from making an even bigger spectacle of herself than she already has.
"Nooooo! Shari, let me go. I want to see him do a high kick..."

Smaug is blinded by the spotlights bouncing off his sequins, and a bead
of sweat drips off his brow (he hopes the Alt.cyberpunk Beauty Contest
CP judges don't notice: they deduct CP points for signs of nervousness).
He's undergoing the "Tell us a little about yourself" part of the
Contest, and the strain is great. He'd much rather get on to the Talent
contest. He's heard about how Sourcerer won last year with his majorette
baton twirling routine, and is determined to walk down the CP runway on
black velvet this year. He's going to recite his "Definition of a
Cyberpunk" accompanied by a bowed motherboard. But he *knows* the answer
to this question: "What do you want to do when you grow up?"
Unfortunately for him, this was not the question asked of him. Poor
Josh. Losing points before he even gets to the main part of the Contest.

Poly's backstage waiting her turn on stage, and is fretting about
whether or not the bow is tied properly on her pink rose print cotton
sundress. Sourcerer helped her with it, and she's afraid she should have
asked Julia instead, because you can tell at a glance that a man tied
it. But the sash is forgotten at the impressive list of specific tech
Smaug is going learn for the future booms out into the auditorium. She's
still having trouble mastering the electric can opener from Wal Mart,
and kisses those CP points goodbye.>

There is a collective "Well, *duh*!" from the audience, which is
beginning to shift in its seats with impatience, hoping for some better
entertainment soon. This routine is growing a little monotonous.
