Sherlock Time-piece
Chapter 57 (cont'd)
The creative curve was developing within the movie crew as the hum of internal flywheel energy was moving within J.P.
"Jayne, how do we get people involved, in a meaningful way?"
The young Lucy and Ethel looked at Jayne and waited, interested in the next move.
Jayne looked around the dimly lit railroad station, walked over to the one pseudo station master and said, "Would you pose for a photograph?"
A stutter, a garbled, "Well, I don't know..." was followed by Jayne taking charge of the scene.
"Props..."
There was music playing that was perfect for the setting.
"Hey Sherlock, can I borrow your cape and hat?"
Simmy quickly obliged.
"Would you wear these?" Jayne didn't really wait for an answer.
"Would you wear this hat too?" She plunked the hat on 'Station Master's' head.
"Stand over here, please!" Jayne was moving quickly before her model could object.
"Timepiece! Who's got a timepiece?"
Simmy produced a silver pocket watch which had Jayne saying, "You do come prepared, don't you!"
"I try," Simmy winked.
Jayne got 'Sherlock' all set up for the shot, then stepped back to take a couple of pictures.
After getting two photos, Jayne changed the lighting effect and 'Sherlock' moved out of position.
"No, no, get back into that position. It was perfect!"
'Sherlock' grimaced and Jayne realized that the cane belonged to the man so... "Oh, are you in pain?"
The sympathy from a woman half his age had the older station master put his leg back up on the stair to pose again.
Jayne finished taking her photos and retrieved all the props and thanked the older gentleman.
"There, what do you think, J.P.?" Jayne was feeling quite proud of herself.
"Engaging! That was positively engaging!" J.P. clapped and the Crew joined in as Jayne took a bow.
