The beach would be the perfect place to mess around with the stone! Everyone there would be wearing bathing suits so she could see most of the changes, and the beach next to her place usually attracted an older crowd, mostly college students and sports teams who either used the beach to party or practice. She would go there and hopefully go unnoticed as she indulged herself. See, she loved transformation, especially detachment, and after changing Reynolds she only wanted to do it more. The way she rationalized it, as long as she didn't hurt or maim anyone, it was alright. Besides, it was almost impossible to link back to her anyways.
And so, with a glimmer in her eye, she stepped purposefully out of the elevator and towards the exit. On her way out she saw Peggy, the receptionist that managed the building's residents as well, was busy filling out paperwork. Hilde whispered beneath her breath and an instant later she heard a thump and a scream from behind her. She didn't need to look back to know what had happened. Peggy's head had fallen off her shoulders and was now lying on the desk. She quickly picked it up and clutched her head tightly to her chest. However, when she noticed that no one else was freaking out she began to examine her new-found headlessness.
Hilde laughed and stepped out into the warm daylight, ready for a nice day at the beach.
