I am the terror that flaps in the night

. . .

Damian? You're carrying the bat motif a bit far, aren't you? If everyone's getting powers based off their personalities, I wonder what mine is supposed to mean about me.

[sonofabat]

I dislike being associated with bats. A lot. I don't think it has anything to do with my personality, but with pissing me off.

What can you do?

[shoukanjutsu]

. . . Uh.

[He has a vague memory of Damian of the future being dressed like a giant bat. Klarth wisely decides not to mention it.]

Well, I guess I can do this.

[Mushroom sound effects! Klarth swells to twice his size.]

Ahahahahah! Maybe this means that I'm just that important. If you say anything about my ego, I'll step on you.

[sonofabat]

Well, that's...just...it makes you a big eyesore, that's all.

I'm significant!

[shoukanjutsu]

Nonsense. My handsome visage could use some advertisement. Of course, I can also do this.

[Poison mushroom! Klarth shrinks to half his size and stops, vaguely conscious that Damian may be tempted to eat him if he gets any smaller.]

It's alright, Damian. We'll keep you as the class pet and you can sit in your cage and dispense cynical witticisms.

[sonofabat]

Hmph, not impressed. Have you thought of anything interesting to do with your newfound abilities?

No cage can hold me!

[shoukanjutsu]

Well, yes. I was actually thinking . . . of snooping. It's bad form. Don't follow my example.
