text; in the evening

[bombgasmic]

A semi-important announcement: Take care not to jinx yourself with hypothetical questions by making sure to knock on wood!
A more important announcement: Even if your past self is as obsessed with explosives as mine was, it's ver crucial to be careful in handling them. A lot more careful than me.

In conclusion: I'm okay. But I had a close call with one of the bombs I Echoed back from other-me. Not that fun.

That said, to discuss a lighter aspect of my situation, due to the incident my hair is all singed and messed up on one side so I have to get that cleaned up eventually. I don't want to cut it all short though, so I guess my choice is going to be one of those asymmetrical styles!! Sort of exciting. I haven't changed my hair in a few years.

Speaking of hairstyles, though, my old one looks almost just like the one my other self had in the one memory I have where she looked in a mirror. Does this happen a lot? Do you have hair similar to other-you, too? I know some guy who Echoed back other-him's hair... I don't bet he's alone in that, is he?

Take care to take care of yourself guys.

Video: the beach

[Masked men are an unusual sight on a public beach, but if you're going to be playing with superpowers what good alternatives are there? Fred's attracting some attention, but he's found a reasonably remote area and most people seem to get that they shouldn't bother him.

The connection is propped up on something a little way back from Fred himself, so as to show him and the ground he's standing on.]

Hey, guys. I think I just figured out what one of those last pulses was. It's... a power, I guess.

[He shrugs; not much else to say before he demonstrates. By which we mean crumbles; in a moment he's replaced by a small pile of sand, pretty much indistinguishable from the sandy ground. The pile wiggles a little and lurches to the side, and then un-crumbles back into Fred.]

And that's about it. I'm pretty sure I should be able to move around like that, if I can figure out how. [He sighs.] It just feels lame, you know? I can make rocks show up, and heal, and... turn into a pile of sand.

Is it very hard to get used to wearing contacts?

I do not want to upset anyone with my eyes, but I am not sure contact lenses would even work... Does anyone have experience with them?
