Special abilities?

[epicbossfight]

As in beyond normal human functioning.

[so_sew_me]

Oh! Yeah, there are lots of people like that here. It's pretty incredible actually. Why I think I might have seen this guy flying the other day!

[epicbossfight]

Well isn't that just amazing! Do you have any friends like that?

[so_sew_me]

That can fly? Mmm... no. Nobody comes to mind...

[epicbossfight]

Or other things. This is a pretty long list for me to track down everyone on my own.

[so_sew_me]

Oh, I don't think I'd be the one to ask about something like that! You should talk to them yourself! It's not like they try keeping their abilities a secret!

[epicbossfight]

Maybe you're right. I'm sure I'll find everything I need eventually.

[so_sew_me]

People are usually suuuper helpful too and--

*oh, excuse me, I seem to be getting dragged away by my friend*

[spotted you, psst on the side] Shiki, you don't know if that man isn't up to something. Please be cautious.

[so_sew_me]

...you really think so? This seemed perfectly fine to me...

[bplusforyou]

[to her ear]He's asking about personal information, Shiki. Things that let people recognise you. I'll tell you something, alright? I've met an imposter once. He almost killed me.

I'm not saying this guy is bad - I apologise if I unnecessarily suspect his motives and maybe he just wants to help us. But it's better to err on the side of caution sometimes.

[so_sew_me]

...wow, really!? I hadn't thought about that at all.

You know, now that you put it that way, he is asking something really personal, huh?

[bplusforyou]

[smiles] Back then, I would've been killed but for Ayanami-sama. Ayanami-sama recognised which of the two of us was real.

[stops smiling] That's what I thought. A bit personal.

[so_sew_me]

I guess we should be careful... actually...

...maybe we should get out of here, what do you think?

[bplusforyou]

If you want. But we shouldn't look like we suspect him of anything, there is no objective reason for that.
