[OPEN LOG]
Who: Anyone!
What: The Free Will card runs around making people neglect their responsibilities. Join in the fun, or try to stop him!
Where: School? The Hospital? The Police Station? Wherever there's problems if you don't do what you ought to! I'll start with an example.
When: Any time during the plot (until someone kicks his ass back into a card).
There's an ambulance, lights still flashing, parked outside the Ice Cream Shoppe. The EMTs are inside, laughing, while the clerk loots the till. Outside on the street, someone has wandered out of the salon next door, hair obviously in mid-perm, and started passionately kissing the mail-man. A teenager graffitis a nearby wall in plain view of a police officer, cap pulled down over his eyes and snoozing on a bench. A young child plays in traffic while his father wanders off, discussing sailing with a complete stranger.
At a distance of about half a block, traffic is stopped and people on the sidewalk are staring. Beyond that range, no-one seems affected, and the chaos within that bubble is really messing with their day.
On the rooftop of the Ice Cream Shoppe, with nobody in particular paying attention to him, or even showing any sign that they can see him, is a pale boy with red eyes. He's dangling his legs over the edge of the roof, simultaneously watching the crowd and flying a kite, with the slightest of smiles on his face.
It's wonderful seeing everyone do what they want to do, with no obstructions.

I'll see if our resident magical girl wants to threadjack
um only always
Ramona straightened her back and held out her massive hammer, pointed directly at the white-haired boy. "YOU!" She called. "You're the one causing the problems here! Stop all of this now or you'll be forced to fight CardCatcher Flowers!"

"I'll cooperate... with whatever it is that you want to do."
Directing the considerable force of his influence at her makes the rest of the street stutter a moment, the effect of his presence narrowing. Anyone with any experience with telepathy or mental programming of any sort might recognize what's been happening to them in the moment before it resumes, and be able to resist -- and unfortunately for Free Will, he's standing right next to someone who fits tat description.
