sooo what kind of powers do you guys have? were you born with them or get them in some freak incident or what?

[He pauses as he types out the text, considering if he should be honest about his intentions or not. It's not like he had any sinister plans or anything. It's just a matter of being private. But he doesn't want to sound too weird or shady. This sounds shady doesn't it??

He types and deletes a bunch of times, unhappy with most of the reasons he tries to give for asking the question. This one makes him sound too weak, this one makes him sound too ignorant, this one just makes him sound stupid. Eventually he settles for...well, nothing. He just gives up and hits send.]

A mental link of some kind? Or is it more just related to the abilities you got?

Do you know where the rock came from?

i really dont know. i think its the abilities? i mean sometimes we could hear each other and just know where the other was. my best friend [It pains him to even think about Steve and that night, but luckily this is text so it doesn't show.] well something happened and he said he heard my voice and knew exactly where to find me.

no. it was underground and when we tried to go back the hole it was in caved in. we were told we had to leave. to this day i still don't know what happened.

Sounds like a mental link of some kind, yes. Might've been why you all got the same ability too.

[ It makes him wonder if there would be more rocks that could give people other kinds of abilities. Not that it's important to him directly, unless they somehow run into something similar while they're stuck here. ]

How long has it been for you? Since you got these powers.

maybe

[It honestly never occurred to Andrew that there would be other rocks out there. Once he got his powers he was pretty focused on that.]

uh man, maybe a little over a month?

Which is why you're still trying to understand it.

[ Complicated time to end up on a spaceship in an alternate universe. Not that there's ever a good time for that. ]

I assume you haven't even figured out the extent of your powers yet?

[For Andrew it may have been the best time. He debates that with himself though.]

uh well i can control them really well but yeah i feel like there's a lot more to them that i don't understand

There's someone on the ship who might be able to help you. She has powers similar to yours, I think.

[ Not that he trusts Wanda all that much, but she would know better than anyone else what Andrew is going through. ]

If you want to, I can mention you to her and see if she'd be up to talking to you about it.

[ Because Bruce isn't just going to give him her name without first knowing if she minds. ]

[Andrew is always suspicious of offered help but his powers are something he's heavily invested in, so he'll take all the help he can get even if talking to people he doesn't know in this place makes him a little anxious. It's one thing to do it through text.]

that would be cool, if she would.

thanks

No problem. No promises, either.

Andrew Detmer, right? [ Going by the name listed in the directory. ]

yeah, that's me. Bruce right?

That's right.

Alright, Andrew. I'll get in touch with you later, or she will. Let me know if you need help with anything else?

yeah, sure. i will. thanks again.
