Dealing With the Seven

"So to recap," Maria says as she sets down the dossier on the table for anyone who wants to take a second look. "They all have sensory powers. Nazakiel's got the eyes, 'Four-Eyes' has future sight. Sounds like touch is accounted for with the demon lady."

"Well, surely she's not just sitting there licking the walls. Or is she? My darling Maria, is that idiotic or genius?"

"Idiotic."

Osmond falters.
