Huh. Feels kinda quiet around here.

[He's shuffling around. And then there's a SMACK.]

OW!

Fuck, that the h -

[a silence. More shuffling, becoming a little frantic; he comes onto the communicator.]

Any of you with powers and yer chips out not having your powers work?

My power's been working just fine lately, why...

[there's a pause as he actually tries to use it, and realizes there's nada Malice.]

..."bargaining chip". Nice.

Oh man, what was the point of getting that thing out in the first place?!

1/2

[theforceoncrack]

...Barga -

[theforceoncrack]

Oh what the fuck.

He needs an angry icon. <.<;

[johnnygarland]

That's gotta be what she was talking about..."Won't hurt anyone", sure, except we're living with a bunch of monsters--

I really hate them right now.

bawww make an angry faec johnny

[theforceoncrack]

.....

He's gonna dot right back at you

[johnnygarland]

...well, she said it's just for now. Not sure I believe her considering all the other junk they've said, though.

Oh, yeah, there's that gun you loaned me--we never used it. We didn't do much of anything, actually. I'll come by and drop it off, I guess?

they shall have a dotting party :>

[theforceoncrack]

"Just for now"...huh? How long's now gonna be, though?

Oh, uh, you know where I am...? Actually, just - I'll meet you at Jenny's, okay?

at least you can't get hangovers from dots XD

[johnnygarland]

Oops. Got mixed up for a minute. I meant Horton, yeah.

Well, I guess there's a little bit of a bright side. If no one can use their powers, then there probably won't be people attacking each other...

OR CAN YOU? /wat

[theforceoncrack]

...you know, that never really stopped me before I got my powers...

THEY CAN TRY

[johnnygarland]

...never stopped the thugs in NYC either, but I was trying to be optimistic. Like maybe some of the crazies don't know what to do without their powers because I didn't do much figh--...

Goodbye, optimism.

try very very hard :>

[theforceoncrack]

Oops. Sorry.

[johnnygarland]

Well, hopefully there won't be any more violence than normal.

/threadjack get!

[nomakothx]

... That won't really deter many people.

\o/

[johnnygarland]

Well, maybe not everyone, but if it makes a few people think twice...

...Okay, the best-case is probably that the crappy weather and looking for food will keep everyone too busy for murder and mayhem.

[nomakothx]

Call me a pessimist, but really I think the scientists have just made the situation even worse for us than it was before.

[johnnygarland]

...Yeah, probably.
