"You must learn to control your powers, to hold back." the Professor says, patiently, once again. Cerys sighs and pokes at his desk plant, restoring it to health.
"But I have more control than I had." she persists. "And I don't see how healing people too much can be bad."
"I am concerned that you are going to be forced to use your power against your will, because you cannot prevent people from accessing it by touching you," he says, "And you don't have infinite power to give before it begins to hurt you. Remember that time you tried to heal everyone in that bus crash and Cyclops found you collapsed behind the mall?"
Cerys goes red. Yes, she remembers that.
"I am trying." she says. "I really want to help the team."
"I know, that's why I'm going to let you go on missions." The Professor says, smiling. "So long as you stay as backup for the others for now, until you are more used to holding your own. They have had a lot more training than you."
Cerys, wishing that her powers worked on older injuries, gives him an overenthusiastic hug and goes out to find the others. She manages not to jump as Kurt teleports in next to her.
"So, I take it from that grin you're going to have to choose a codename, ya?"
"Yep." Cerys grins at him, though she looks a little anxious. "Do you think I'm going to slow you guys down, not having much in the way of offensive powers?"
"Nein, but we'll try and make sure you don't get beat up too much." Kurt says, following her into the kitchen. "Just make sure not to dive in too quick with the healy thing. You still need a codename."
"I haven't managed to think of one yet." Cerys says, getting a soda from the fridge. "Jean doesn't have one."
"You better think of one fast, or we'll have to make one for you." Kurt teases, then with a 'bamf!', is gone.
