[ Peter is what one might call.. flustered. His feathers, they are ruffled, and it's more than a little bit evident in the agitated tone of his voice. Not to mention, the fact that his cellphone doesn't seem to be functioning like a cellphone is pissing him off. ] As much as I want to know where I am -- how I even got hereLook, just.. does

You can't get home. Sorry.

[askedtobe]

I can't? Why not?

The thin' that brought us here-- it's called the Core. When it brought you here, it put somethin' in you called the Pull-- you feel that weight in your chest? That's the Pull. You leave the island, that'll get so tight it'll kill you.

[askedtobe]

... It did what--

The Core? But why'd it bring us here in the first place?

voice;

[cowboy_newsie]

Nobody knows. There ain't no pattern, we're just pulled here.

[askedtobe]

And no one's ever been able to leave?

[cowboy_newsie]

Sometimes they . . . disappear. Or die. But no, not aside from that. People started comin' here about a year ago.

[askedtobe]

And now you all... everyone just lives here.

voice;

[cowboy_newsie]

Pretty much. But you get powers too, so it ain't all bad.

voice;

[askedtobe]

Powers?

What kind.

voice;

[cowboy_newsie]

All sorts. I can-- heal, I can't die. And there's some who can do magic, or-- I don't know. All sorts.

[askedtobe]

And what if.. what if you can already do things like that?

voice;

[cowboy_newsie]

You can? Then you just keep em. What can you do?

voice;

[askedtobe]

You want the whole list?

voice;

[cowboy_newsie]

Sure.

Started off with just being able to fly. But, uh.. I can heal, turn invisible, paint the future -- dream it, too. I've got telekinesis, and telepathy... I might be able to stop time.

That's about it. I think. [ Except for the one he's leaving off on purpose (and the ones he doesn't know about). ]
