[video] With Great Power Comes Great Irresponsibility

[whyarewehere]

[ Grif is in high spirits today. He seems to actually be in one of the training rooms for once, which makes that a lot weirder. ]

Hey guys. There are a bunch of weirdos running around and it's been a while since we talked about powers. So guess what we're going to do today?

[ 'We' because he expects participation, dammit! ]

And because I'm feeling generous, I'll start. Guess who learned a new thing?

[ He points at himself with both thumbs and backs up, revealing a line of targets. He steps back, lines up his shoulder with them, and winds up his arm like a softball pitcher. He doesn't stop. Grif's arm blurs as he speeds up, and finally the force of the moving air is enough to tip over the nearest target. But only the nearest one. He stops, gestures at it with definite pride, and continues. ]

So let's talk about your powers because we already know mine are pretty awesome.

[ Of course they are, Grif. ]

Has anybody else figured out anything cool? And if you're new: I'm Grif and this is basically my job around here. Tell me what you got, because I'm still way disappointed about the lack of eye lasers we got going on on this team. I could read profiles, but who has time for that crap?

If I know you already... I don't know. Injury status report? What did you have for lunch? I'm just bored, okay?

((( This is a free for all mingle post! Grif will reply to everyone who responds, but if you want to have a character jump into a conversation with anybody you are absolutely welcome and, in fact, encouraged. Feel free to have characters ignore the point, talk about other things, etc etc. Threads are assumed to be public unless you mark them otherwise. This is set after the Ambush of TTHS but the Investigation is still ongoing. )))

I don't always do it with my face.

[ He can shoot blasts, too!

Sometimes he just....crashes inelegantly through things instead...okay, more than just sometimes, honestly. ]

[whyarewehere]

You do it a lot with you face.

[ Grif knows when he's right! ]

[headinjuries]

Okay, that just means my face kicks more butt than some people's anything.

[whyarewehere]

Just to be clear here, by some people you mean me, right?

[headinjuries]

Do you take everything so personally?

[whyarewehere]

Only things that are personal.

[ Yes. ]

[headinjuries]

So, yes.

[ don't throw stones in glass houses, sam ]

[whyarewehere]

Alright, then who were you talking about?

[ He raises an eyebrow. Do tell, Sam. ]

[headinjuries]

There are an awful lot of people out there who can't kick as much butt as my face does, dude.

[whyarewehere]

How many of them do I know? We gotta get some names in here, Sam.

[ Now he's just challenging him because it's fun. ]

[headinjuries]

Well, okay, for starters: you.

[whyarewehere]

Seeeeee?

[headinjuries]

Hey, you would've given just as much crap to anyone else posting this, I figured somebody should return the favor.

[whyarewehere]

...You're right, I would've.

Do you want me to critique your performance, or what?

[headinjuries]

Pass.

[whyarewehere]

Alright, this is your practice run. Next time.
