[video] With Great Power Comes Great Irresponsibility
[ 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. )))

[
shot from the eyes?Because that would be impressive. Otherwise, it kind of sounds like he'd just be a human shield and doesn't seem like it'd be fun. ]no subject

[Um.]
Good enough at some, yeah.
What are you good at, Mabel?
[Let's redirect, shall we?]
no subject
Lots of things! ART!
[ She holds up a picture she drew of her pig trying to eat Dipper's omnicom. ]
Knitting!
[ She holds up the one sweater she has left, which is the one she arrived in. ]
And MATCHMAKING!
I don't have a picture for that one yet... But soon I will!

You know, we could probably find you some...space yarn. Or something. For knitting.
no subject
[ Give her a sec to happily imagine even sparklier yarn than she was used to back in her universe. ]
no subject
[As long as you're not focused on the matchmaking thing. They have a whole terrifying fandom for that; they don't need Mabel's help.]

Are you trying to say you want a sweater? I'll make you one, don't worry! What's your favorite color?
no subject
[He chokes for a moment - because that is the last thing he needs - and scrambles to come up with an alternate solution.]
Actually, do you know who really needs a sweater? My friend Donut. He'll love it.
no subject
[ You're never getting out of it, Wash. Sorry not sorry. ]
no subject
How about you start on his first? His favorite color is pink.
