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.]

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.

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