[It's time to play the 'who's awake at 1 AM' game! If you're not, Tetsuo's talking softly enough that it might not wake you. If you want to see or answer this later in the day when normal people are awake, feel free, but please specify.]

Everybody's got powers, right? That's why they want us to stick around...

[You can just hear how much he likes that prospect. He all but spits those last two words out like it's a curse.]

So anyway, I'm curious.

How many of you have 'side effects' from them? Anybody know? I know there's gotta be more than one... but it's not all of you, is it?

I - nnghh. I wanna know why that is... why's it only some people?

Well, that's the help I'm thinking of. It'd be temporary, but it'd be something. I think.

...Fine. Tell me about your idea.

[rathercommon]

[ you are not very polite are you ]

I suppress powers when I touch someone. It'd probably suppress the side effects, too.

[iamtetsuo]

Thought so. Look, there's gotta be a better option than trading out.

[But he might just call you if it gets bad enough anyway.]

[rathercommon]

Yeah, there probably is? But if you need it, this is a temporary respite from all of that, which I'D think would be worth something.
