hey, so, full disclosure: this is super weird for me. i've never done this before. like, classically when i tell people bad stuff happens so i sorta don't tell anyone, but uh, here goes:

so i've got... superpowers. it feels like?? that's not that big a deal around here. some people are like 9 ft tall and can do magic (???) and have full robotic wings so it's just nbd but also for me it kinda is a big deal so it's a little scary to be upfront about this but i super duper did just liveblog my spider wall-crawling to the entire team during the last mission pandora's box is way open so yeah i have superpowers

( and apparently he's no better at trying to send brain messages, RIP friendos, his brain is just Like This )

but anyway, uh... since there are a lot of us, maybe if you wanna, we can... share??? nothing more than you are comfortable with, obviously, and trust me if you wanna hang back and stay quiet i get it. back home, i can't share this stuff. it gets people hurt. i was just thinking here, maybe... and since there's a ton of you like me or not even like me but different too, i don't know. maybe it'd be good for us to know who can do what? what we're all capable of? things we should look out for?

i guess i should go first. i, uh... can crawl on walls. everybody saw that (SIDEBAR that is my bad for that shaky camera work if i gave you motion sickness i am so so so sorry). i'm pretty strong too. and maybe be careful trying to touch me or throw things at me bc my senses make me react if it seems like a threat and i'm not super good at turning it off. i'm trying though. i have webslingers too, for flyin around?? so that's cool

uh... that's it? ama? i'll try and answer... or you can tell me anything, if you wanna talk shop. if you wanna keep things dl, private works. trust that i get it, this feels so viscerally uncomfortable, like those went to school in ur underwear dreams, only i really did it, holy snickerdoodle, i really hope this does not blow up in my face

yeah i can see why you'd keep it a secret if there's people who'd make threats and try to use it against you.

it sounds pretty cool though you can do all that. were you born with those powers? i've seen others have varying abilities here but it's still so foreign to me since it's only stuff you'd read about in fiction back home.

no, i wasn't born like this. it happened a few years ago.

kinda had a learning curve figuring them out. to be honest i'm still not sure i've entirely mastered them

[romancekiller]

Oh so basically it was something really unexpected, when you did get them?

I can imagine it would be a lot to get used and learn about then on your own. [she kind of assumes based on how he'd kept it a secret that there wasn't a manual or anyone he could ask what to do when getting powers suddenly like that]

when i was seventeen. somewhere around there. i'm bad with dates. even my own birthday. last year i only knew i got older bc my aunt got me a cupcake and set it outside my door

( mostly because he was in a depressive spiral and was barely leaving his bedroom at that point, but uh, he doesn't notice his birthday even during ideal circumstances!!! )

i wasn't entirely on my own i guess. but mostly. i was for sure the only one with spider superpowers.

[romancekiller]

I was never really good with that either. My best friend always had to remind me while growing up otherwise I'd completely forget my birthday was a thing. [she is pretty sure that she has missed it while being here too oops]

spider superpowers? oh i guess that's what you also meant with webslingers right? [she hadn't quite picked up on that his powers were spider related in that sense]
