[Greetings numbers club! Barnaby's sitting on the couch in his living room, and there's a rather distressed grunting and thumping coming from somewhere off-camera. He doesn't look too good - he's pretty edgy, and doesn't seem to have gotten much sleep yet.

Oh yes, and his eyes and body are glowing bright blue.]

Can anyone else see this? It's not just sleep dep messing with me?

[He's shaking bad now, either from nerves, exhaustion, or both. It's bad enough he can't trust his memories, but can he even trust his own eyes right now?]

[ Yes of course who would be serious about a job as a human glow stick...

sob. ]

Just trying to find the positives in this. Um... well, I'm sure you'll find a good use for the bioluminescence! Lots of species use it as communication, so maybe if you can learn to control it, you can use it for morse code or-- ohhh maybe you're venomous now too! Like a blue-ringed octopus!

[Okay, that gets a bit of a chuckle out of him.]

I, ah, don't think it's that kind of bioluminescence. I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be more like some kind of superpower. A really weird superpower...

A very useful superpower if you ever end up in a dark space! Better than what I have, which is virtually nothing.

[ And yet she can't really will herself to be all that jealous. She's been an outcast most of her life, no need to give people another reason for people to think she's a freak. ]

And who knows? It could be the first symptom of even greater superpowers. I still think you should check for venom. In a non-lethal way, of course! Maybe study some saliva under a microscope.
