Oh, believe me, I understand. It does seem convenient, I'm not going to deny that. But it's also true, and it's going to help me be something more than just a murderer.

Yes, he mentioned that to me.
With my ability, I can intuitively understand how a system works. Any system. This means watches, it means electronics, powers, people, stars- you name it. I don't know everything about everything, but I have enough of a base to go off of that I learn very quickly.
And that's just it- I learn very quickly. And being able to know that much becomes addictive. Surely you've seen pictures of my apartment, if you didn't see it firsthand. Someone got to my books.
With special abilities, it's even worse, because then there's the knowing and the having. And then you can use those abilities to their fullest extent. It becomes increasingly hard to give up, after you realize how much you can do with it. Eventually it seems nearly impossible.
I don't know how to stop it. If I did, I would have already.

I wasn't in the best of moods that day, either. And you coming in with a gun to make me shoot myself? Didn't help. One of the very first things I learned was the fact that I'm a survivor. Regardless of what I want at the time.
So far? I've talked a lot with Angela, and I meditate. They keep me at Level 5, so that's pretty much all I have to do when I'm not on assignment.
I did relapse once. A man named Jesse Murphy, one of the escapees from Level 5.
Peter doesn't stand a chance with this. I have a lot more willpower than he does. And even if he didn't do it the same way, he has a lot of abilities already.
I didn't let him take my ability, I just didn't think he could. He absorbed the telekinesis almost immediately and nothing since then- I figured that was going to be it.

No one's really wanted to help me stop before.

I don't think anyone believed me capable of it.
