[ if someone told clarice she'd be reaching out to the rest of her cohort almost the instant she finds her footing on the station, she'd have laughed in their face. frankly, she would have preferred to keep her head down, stay out of the way until she was needed.

but some things were necessary, and dealing with a whole set of people whose backgrounds and experiences she had no clue about necessitated some information-gathering.

reaching out anonymously seemed like a good compromise. ]

different things as in they have powers?

[fuchsiative]

powers, abilities, whatever you wanna call it
you have anything like that where you're from?

[romancekiller]

they're pretty common where i'm from

but people are sometimes miraculously stupid

[romancekiller]

Yeah, that does sound really stupid if people still have prejudice against it.

That sucks you had to deal what back where you're from. I think you'll find here at least people are more open and accepting of it.
