So you want to wizard-watch for a while? It’s your funeral.

Loitering Weirdos
1
A ragged tin man is eating a ragged tin can. He’s not willing to share.
2
A dark hooded watching figure is really just a prop. On touch it becomes apparent, and business cards spill out for “Marvin’s Misanthropic Mannequins! Find us at The Mall!”
3
There’s a guy who is casually on fire.
4
Flautist playing an awful asynchronous melody like a 3rd grader improvising with a recorder. Can’t stop and won’t stop, but why?
5
Woman feeding fistfuls of garbage to a pack of cats… Wait, no, small dogs… Wait, no, giant rats… Wait, no, opossums. Yes, those are opossums.
6
Umbrella man’s reflection without accompaniment in a nearby murky puddle. Doesn’t respond to anything except sign language. Walks away in the reflected world after 2 attempts.
7
Crotchety old dude chewing something gross and periodically spitting into a distillery setup. He’s distilling his chew with who-knows-what. The resulting liquid is crystal clear. Drugs??
8
Kids playing jacks. The number of jacks they’re picking up is now at 17. They only do prime numbers. It keeps climbing. And climbing. And climbing. We are at 83 jacks and climbing...
9
A woman in high heels is waiting for someone. Won’t say who. She’ll be there night and day, literally forever.
10
A man is performing coin tricks, for himself, apparently. He’s even oohing and aahing, like he’s pleasantly surprised with each reveal.
11
There’s a person cheerfully watering a row of hats, “to help them grow big and strong.”
12
A child with no eyes is gazing at clouds, making up what she sees… Or is she?
13
There’s a guy wearing a frog mask, squatting.
14
Plainclothes old woman wields a halberd like it’s a walking stick. Says she’s holding it for someone. Who the hell needs a war halberd??
15
A man with a pointed cone hat drinks an ugly chartreuse liquid from the bottle. He says he’s not sharing.
16
It’s empty. It feels like someone’s watching, though. It feels like there’s someone here.
17
Right next to you! Ahh!... Oh wait, it’s just a party member. Whew.
18
There’s a child that’s throwing things up into the air that aren’t coming down. Things aren’t going anywhere, they’re just disappearing into thin air. He asks for things to throw.
19
A buff shirtless guy riding on a horse.
20
Crouching person with wide-brimmed hat and heavy robes is actually dead. Nothing but a skeleton under there. Empty pockets.
