[Hector holds up a cord, with a tuning fork danging from it, the handle of it look like coral, and so rough it'd probably cut open the hand of anyone who holds it too tightly]

Found this on my bed, it's mine. It seems like I have some special powers.

[He grins cockily]

This baby helps me focus, buried treasure, people trapped under the rubble, secret passages? Just let me give it a whack and I'll find them in no time flat! Don't think about yoinking it, it only works for me and me alone! I knew I'm not some ordinary person.

So you're saying you use that thing to dowse?

[He sounds a little skeptical.]

[halfgod_allego]

Don't believe me. Why won't you test me then, isn't that what you do for a living?

[trustycrowbar]

I don't have time to--No, y'know what? Sure, let's do just that!

[That's the first time he's been called out on this. It honestly surprised him.]

Let's see, somewhere around the neighborhood of ten identical items buried in, oh hell, let's say a ten-kilometer-square area. You with the fork, you without it, and a third party as a control group. Sound reasonable?

[halfgod_allego]

Sure, I'll show you what I can do.

[trustycrowbar]

[He fidgets with his glasses, with a half-smile.]

I'm sure you will. I'll give you a call in a couple of days when I have things set up. Just come to the Labs; I'll even provide transportation.

[It's easy to say that when one has a teleporter at one's disposal.]

[halfgod_allego]

Sure thing, I'll be more then ready.

[not_good_not_wicked]

Hey, that sounds handy!

[halfgod_allego]

It is, especially for a place like this.

[not_good_not_wicked]

You should let me try it.

[halfgod_allego]

Didn't you hear me? I already said it only works for me.

[not_good_not_wicked]

Did you say that?

[halfgod_allego]

Yeeeeah, you got ears, don't you?

[not_good_not_wicked]

So what makes you not ordinary?

[stinglikeabat]

Do you think you could find that witch girl with that? I'm certain she's up to no good!

[halfgod_allego]

If she buried herself alive, maybe. Though if that's the case - why dig her up?

[stinglikeabat]

Well... she could be hiding underground. There's a lot of ruins out there!
