Hi. Got a question. It's more for people who've been here longer, but if anyone's got advice, it's cool.

Can't really believe I'm asking this, but - does anyone have any ideas for what to do when you miss your family? I try to talk to ma, but it doesn't always work. And I can't just keep ringing home.

[Yeah, if anyone's seen Kanji shouting into a phone, that's what he means by 'doesn't work'.]

I mean, I'm alright. It's not a big deal overall. But any tips?

Stifling to say the least. Especially when I'd hear stories about the X-Men and whatnot. I wanted to be more than just the kid that was always watching the world from a tower.

[realmenknitplushies]

Don't blame ya.
...I'd've just settled for 'not bein' the weird kid' myself.

[kickstart_my_heart]

Can't help that part. The moment I accidentally used my powers, the jig'd be up.

[realmenknitplushies]

Huh. What are they, anyway?

[kickstart_my_heart]

I can manipulate kinetic vectors, if you understand that.

[realmenknitplushies]

Kinetic... that's like... somethin' to do with moving things, right?

[Lost him on 'vectors', though.]

[kickstart_my_heart]

I can change how things move and react to force. I'm learning more about physics so I can apply it better, but it's pretty cool as it is.

[realmenknitplushies]

Huh, no kiddin'. That does sound pretty useful.

[kickstart_my_heart]

Right now I'm trying to learn how to use it to walk on walls!

[realmenknitplushies]

Man. That'll be cool if ya can get it to work.

[kickstart_my_heart]

Cooler than a popsicle, mate. I'll be like Spider-man!

... Kind of, anyways.

[realmenknitplushies]

Eh, who needs the web bits, huh?

[kickstart_my_heart]

Maybe if I extend the string on my yoyo.
