[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?

[performance]

Huh. Really? Out of nowhere?

[iamtetsuo]

That's what I just said.

[performance]

Do you have anyone working with you on your powers? Helping you train, or anything like that? I don't want to pry or make assumptions, but it might be attributable to a lack of control.

Showing up in a strange place with new powers and no guidance... it's not easy.

[iamtetsuo]

[Tetsuo's a poor liar; truth is, he does have someone right now. Someone he's not supposed to mention, and that's fine with him and his pride.]

I'm figuring it out.

[performance]

Going solo, huh? Well. If that's what works for you. Can't say I didn't go that route myself.

[iamtetsuo]

Heh. Yeah.

I'll show them what I can do when I'm damn well ready to.
