I guess I'm a couple days late checking in. I was a bit... indisposed. [Hungover, indisposed... same thing.] I'm alive and in one piece, obviously. Don't think my cover was blown, either. How about the rest of you? Kids? Look, a lot of shit's going down, and it's not much, but there's some space in my apartment if someone needs to lay low for a bit.

Someone I know. No offense, but I'd rather not have a complete stranger with who-knows-what powers sleeping on my couch.

Oh. And for anyone who was taking bets... [She holds up a green, glowing hand - glowing right through the gloves, actually] These babies are blasters.

So I might be a ghost.

Alien.

Thing.

Oh, I'm sure it's possible... if you know how to pick the right spot and not get caught.

[Hm. Maybe she should hold off until she got a few more of those skills that had landed her alternate self in jail.]

I am afraid that I am not skilled in either department. [she sighs deeply]

Perhaps it is for the best. I would not wish to harm anyone.

I'll let you know if I come up with any safe options, all right? In the mean time, we'll have to avoid blasting anyone, no matter how much they tick us off, am I right?

That would be very wise, yes! Although I do not think that I will have to worry too much about it on my side - I can only cause them to appear when I feel righteous fury.

[greenisthenewblack]

Righteous... fury?

Uh. Well, that's good for you, then. I think my triggers a tiiiiny bit more sensitive.

[Or, y'know, she just has a shorter fuse on her temper.]

That is quite unfortunate, although I can commiserate somewhat! I did not receive any knowledge of how to utilize the first ability I was granted; even now I am still accidentally crushing things when I do not mean to.

[she looks a little sheepish as she laughs. man, the number of places she'd had to edge away from subtly because she pulled a door off its hinges...]

[greenisthenewblack]

Crushing things? That sounds even more inconvenient than the glowing. Yeesh. At least I can keep the blasters holstered, most of the time.

[chernobolt]

Yes, it is...most bothersome. I have been very fortunate that it has not caused any notable chaos as of yet.

[because, uh. she'd really rather not be recognized as numbered, if it's all the same to everyone else]

[greenisthenewblack]

So, what, that's... superstrength?

video;

[chernobolt]

Yes! But I must say, for all of its inconveniences, I am very grateful to possess it.

[greenisthenewblack]

...Well, the other-me's brother had it, too. But I can't help you more than that.

[Oh, great. More evidence that she's probably an alien.]

[chernobolt]

Thank you for attempting all the same! I am certain that it will come to me when I truly need it.

[...hopefully]

[greenisthenewblack]

It'd be a hell of a lot more convenient if it came when we got the stupid powers.

[chernobolt]

I cannot deny this, but I suppose that everything happens for a reason! So long as we receive the instructions eventually I cannot be too discontent.

[greenisthenewblack]

You're a better woman than me, I'll tell you that.

[Sheila's annoyed whether or not she gets the instructions 'when she needs them.']

[chernobolt]

I do not believe that something so minor would truly prove such a thing...

[it seems like a kind of large leap considering it's just a little faith and patience...]
