Hey Moira, I've got a couple of questions.

[And then maybe someone can ask him if that's Halloween candy that he's still eating. (It is.)]

One, what do you know about flying? I'm not talking about airplanes or spaceships, I mean flying. This ship's full of people with all sorts of powers, I figure someone's gotta be able to give me some pointers.

So tell me what I'm doing wrong here.

[He lets the candy wrapper flutter to the floor before standing up, holding his hands out at his sides. And then he starts to levitate, wobbly as hell but still rising. He's a mover, he moves stuff - so he decided to try and move himself.

And then he's suddenly shooting up and crashing into the ceiling. Nice. Nick sits up a few seconds after he hits the floor, rubbing the top and back of his head.]

Help a guy out?

I think you're doing perfect as is, don't change a thing.

What is that, sarcasm? From you? [Nick sighs and shakes his head gently.] You think you know a guy.

Is it truly flight, or just levitation?

[ Yes there is a difference. ]

Can't call it real flying. More like creative telekinesis. My dad said he did it once, I always thought he was full of it.

That is amazing!

[pushed]

Yeah?

[It takes him a second to weigh the sincerity of this. It's just. He knows so many smartasses.]

It's a start. Hopefully I can get it to where it actually is amazing.

The only flying I ever did was with a jet pack, sorry. I'd say not to give it so much gas though.

That's kind of what this feels like, so that's not bad advice.

[Fatima can't help but be amused. It's actually not the first time she's seen grace like that.]

I think you're having a problem with your takeoff.

[VIDEO]

[pushed]

See, I think it's the landing that sucks the most.

[gentlemenpreferblondes]

[Well now! Take a look at that. J's actually been having very similar problem as him.]

My, my. Looks like someone else took a visit crazy house.

[pushed]

You been trying to figure this out too?

[liberaltus]

I'm almost certain that the first rule of flying is: don't crash into the ceiling. That's based purely on dragon observation.

( video )

[pushed]

Wait a minute - don't dragons just crash through the ceiling?

And here I thought this was a call for help on how to fly a spaceship because I'm at a loss, figured it would be as easy as driving a car.

[ Jesus Christ― ]

Uh― you okay? How...did you do that?

[pushed]

Nothing broken. [He glances up.] Ceiling might be a little cracked.

Badly. Other than that, I'm a mover - telekinetic. Pretty sure there's others on the ship.

I'm guessing this is a new thing or you wouldn't be asking. I know a couple people who can fly, float, whatever. I could point you to them.

[pushed]

Sort of. I mean, I could always move things, it's just usually not myself.

Yeah? That would be great, man.

[lúcio's wince is practically audible.]

Yikes! You okay, man?

I've taken a few hits to the head in my day. Thanks for asking though.

[knight_light]

I'd offer pointers, but I've a feeling they'd not be all that useful to you.

Are you all right?

[Video]

[pushed]

I've had worse. Probably. Either way I wouldn't mind having a metal head like you guys.

[grasstiara]

Aw, that was close, mister!

[NOT REALLY, but trying to keep his spirits up!]

You seemed fine before you attempted to float though. What exactly did you do?

video

[pushed]

Yeah, a little too close. I gotta do something about that surge.

[newnova]

[ Sam can't help but wince because he's definitely crashed into his own ceiling before. He dons the helmet and replies as Nova. ]

First tip: practice outside. Er, or somewhere with high ceilings. Since we're in space.

[pushed]

Now there's some good advice. Probably should've tried it that way first.

I'm guessing a helmet doesn't hurt either.

[notthemaniwas]

[He's not thrilled but he he does have a responsibility that he's definitely shirked long enough. On the ship and off.]

I've had some experience with students who could fly. It's been different for all of them but I'll offer my help.

[pushed]

That'd be a big help. It'd save both my skull and the ceiling. Win-win.

[morethan084]

Uh. Wow.

[Really helpful. Honestly.]

I wish I had some pointers but, wow, that's really cool. I didn't know you had a power.

[pushed]

Yeah. But hey, it's not such a big deal around here, right? Seems like everyone's got something special going on. That or they're metal.
