"First of all, Skaar was not DROPPED on us. I recruited him myself. And from where I stand, it's still for good reason. I can work with him. He's willing to work with us."
He made a mental note to get a hold of Skarr again and touch base there.
"But the bigger note is what you keep saying. If you had control of your powers. Missions aren't where you start to learn that control, that's not where you start to learn how to handle your powers. Not when people are depending on you. You learn the basics first THEN you come out and help."
"You don't join a sword fight the day you pick up a sword. You learn how to use it first! Yes, you refine your abilities, hone them, learn finesse in the field, but right now? Right now you can hardly stand on your own! You're swinging blind. And what would happen if your swing hits me, or Skaar, or Krista, or some bystander?"
"You want help with your powers? There are plenty of people here, willing to help. But the question if you went on a mission now isn't if you'd hurt yourself, it's how many people you;d take down with you."
He sighed and ran a hand though his hair. "I'm one of the ones willing to help you, and you know what? If you can do all that, yes. Your power does sound useful. When it's trained. When you can use it."
You happen to have AIM/Plurk/Yahoo? I'd love to chat as we work on these posts...
