Still looking for Claude


Hello, It’s Tarot again. I’m still looking for Claude. This would have been easier if I hadn’t temporarily lost my powers but I was stuck having to do old fashioned detective work for a bit. I did manage to find out a few interesting things in Blackpool which while they didn’t lead me to Claude were quite enlightening though I don’t dare talk about it. What? A girl can’t keep secrets for her favorite guy? I wasn’t sure where to go after I left Blackpool…


Then I came across this show on the telly and this picture:
That man in the spacesuit looks an awful lot like Claude shaven, but for a man who usually likes to lay low I gotta say that the outfit is a bit flashy even if it does look good on him… Anyway, I have to wonder whether that’s Claude or some long lost relative of his or even a twin brother. I was tempted to find him to ask him- if he’s not actually Claude that is- if he knows where Claude is. Of course it did occur to me that if that is indeed Claude, either he’s trying a new hiding trick (being as a lot of specials lost their powers and I dunno how many got them back) or maybe he has amnesia. Awfully strange way to hide, but I suppose it works if he’s safe.

And before I could even try to follow up on that lead, I found this:
It was in a local UK magazine advert. Again, this man looks like Claude with a shave and a haircut. . .wearing a suit. Claude doesn’t do that often. Only for funerals as I recall. I bought the magazine and saved the advert but I’m not sure what exactly the company is selling. I’m thinking of going to their headquarters and meeting the fellow in this picture. I suppose that, if Claude has permanently lost his ability to vanish, he’d probably have to get a real job and given what I know but won’t tell you I can see that being a lot easier over here than back on the other side of the Pond. I was glad that I got my ability back. Until I did, I felt like someone had stolen one of my eyes or tied one of my arms behind my back.
