Its over its done. let it go. both you.

HMQ needs not the cancerous pointless argument

>>30819618
Shame too, JJ could totally have scared the living shit out of some villains by pretending to be a ghost.
Basically just go invisible, start screaming an unearthly scream, scratch the walls, throw shit around and use ink to make black, wet handprints appear everywhere.

Still, I guess you just gotta play with the hands you've been dealt.
Here's hoping for druid JJ.

>>30819646
I agree, Draconic breath was a terrible choice but we need to learn to live with our mistakes and get on with the thread.

>>30819652
ranged option was the only where people got noticeably buttflustered

>>30819646
>>30819658
Can't really stifle relevant discussion

People just need to learn to let it go and not get so angry next time.

>>30819679
i need some one to sell me on the photo synthesis since i like the genetic copy power more.

>>30819692
I was mostly annoyed that they tried to go with a dragon theme, i was ok with the choice itself, but the people advocating for it seemed retarded, by constantly saying dragon theme, and that we would have to get over our fear of fire if we shoot it out of our mouths(confirmed by crusty that it can back fire as well, but never mentioned in their arguments).plus rolling to use it is gonna be a pain.

>>30819652
This was bound to happen so: When voting on new powers people keep looking at what those powers can do at levels 4 & 5. It's like they actually think that we are going to get those higher level powers.

Here is a list of level one powers we already have.

ENHANCED AGILITY
>Next level: Our reflexes will just barely keep up with Laura and Barracuda

CLAWS & FANGS
>Next level: Longer Claws that can cut through steel like butter

ELECTROSTATIC TOUCH
>Next level: We can kill normal humans with a touch, and stun more durable opponents

ADHESIVE TOUCH
>Next level: No more skill rolls for wall crawling

SUBDERMAL BIOWEAVE
>Next level: Thicker skin

DRACONIC BREATH
>Next level: Can produce a one meter flame

I'm getting the feeling we are never going to upgrade any of these powers. We are just going to keep buying new powers.
People voted for dragon breath because they though we would actually be able to breath fire but if you actually read the description all we have now is pepper spray breath. Which is useless since we have taserhands.

I'm not trying to hate on the people that voted for breath. But in the future if you want a new power please ONLY look at levels 1 & 2. Because there's a 80% chance those are the only levels we're ever going to get.

>>30819693
Discussion is fine,
rampant and pointless arguing isn't.

>>30819702
Would let us, at a high enough level + wings, stay in the air indefinitely, could literally travel anywhere and not be stopped by anyone. Just fly through clouds for water.

Not to mention: the boost other abilitys would let us get access to power levels otherwise permanently locked, like healing 4, during times when we really need it.

Genetic copy is nice, but its limited in that it needs consumption, presumably each time, and its last teir is as good as locked considering the character.

It'll come when you least expect it.

>>30819491
>[ ] Get up.
Choosing the ability to breathe fire when we're terrified of fire seems questionable, alas I wasn't available to vote. I was going for optical force blasts. Sonic scream was in second, has some great unlockable abilities

>>30819742
The dragon thing was something exaggerated by sonicscream fans though

Really like 2 people mentioned it seriously. Besides, JJ's a canon lizard elf fairy

>>30819743
Very dependable on how many X points we get.

The subdermal WILL get upgraded, its basically internal armor, and now we have maxed out our healing is the best bet to limiting damage.

>>30819759
Can you imagine it, being invisible and using our redirecting force blasts to wreck people. Throw in geointuitive vision and awesomeness would be had.

>>30819745
>access to power levels otherwise permanently locked
really?
I thought it just saved a battery to boost a stat.
I was somewhat turned off by it since it takes at level 3 to become useful, and 4 to be good.you just reminded me of all the sonic scream and wing powers never gonna be used now, but speaking of which what are the extra stuff for breath?

>>30819742
maybe we won't roll like shit anon. A man can dream.

>>30819784
>JJ's a canon lizard elf fairy
I was talking about this specifically by falling back on blanket statements and saying its becuase JJ is blank for their argument for the power.
>The dragon thing was something exaggerated
I'll give you that, but in some threads you couldn't tell the who was joking and who was serious.

>[X] Get up.

Groaning incomprehensibly, you drag yourself out of bed, the warmth of the sheets receding into the cool, hard touch of the wood paneling beneath your feet. You wish you had a carpet or something, that would be much better.

You throw your uniform on with little care for how it looks, shrugging your blazer up your shoulders while you pad incoherently toward the bathroom. You brush your teeth and gargle some mouthwash, occasional deflecting a shout from down below, before descending the stairs.

As you round the corner into the kitchen, you hear Joyce stifle a big fat Bad Word, something clattering at her feet. Your sister appears to be doing something with the stove, maybe cooking, maybe ending the world as we know it, it’s debatable at this point. The smell of bacon, churning deliciously in its own juices, cuts through the early-morning fugue.

Huh. Mom would never’ve let you have bacon for breakfast. Not healthy, or something.

Joyce straightens up weirdly when she sees you, smiling. Someone else’d probably miss it, but you see the tearing at the edges.

“Heya, JJ.” She holds up a pan full of sizzling meat. “Hungry?”

>[ ] Nah, you’re okay, you just wanna go to school and get the day over with.
>[ ] Yeah you hungry, you super hungry.

>>30819797
Temporarily. It will probably be like a one shot booster per fight.

Also it'll make JJ Green, which is amusing to me.

>>30819797

HEATPROOFING
Requires: Level 3 Subdermal Bioweave, Level 2 Draconic Breath OR Optical Heat Blasts
Cost: 1
JJ’s mesh armour becomes more resistant to heat, lessening the chances of thermal damage causing deem tissue injuries.

THERMAL PINIONS
Requires: Level 5 Winged Flight, Level 1 Draconic Breath OR Optical Heat Blasts
Cost: 1
The edges of JJ’s wings may superheat at will, allowing them to slice through hardened materials with greater ease.


decent but not mind blowing

>>30819702
This is the main selling point
>Level 4: JJ shakes off fatigue and illness more easily when under the sun. He can choose to temporarily boost one of his attributes to heightened levels by burning through stored solar energy.

If I understand this correctly, using this, JJ could theoretically buff his powers past their current level.

>>30819832
More will likely come with time.

>>30819829
>[ ] Nah, you’re okay, you just wanna go to school and get the day over with.

Something is off.

>>30819785
I think agility is next on the list before armour, since its better to dodge the shit instead of taking the hit.

>>30819829
>[ ] Yeah you hungry, you super hungry.

New theory: Joyce burned down EVERYTHING

>>30819829
>>[ ] Yeah you hungry, you super hungry.

she worked on this JJ

>>30819743
Actually, our agility is already at level that our reflexes are on par with Laura and Barracuda.

Next level would just outright surpass them.

Rolled 14

>>30819813
JJ owes the dice god thier crack money anon, thats not gonna happen for a while.

>>30819743
DRACONIC BREATH
>Next level: Can produce a one meter flame
AND shoot fireballs for long distance fighting.

>>30819832
>The edges of JJ’s wings may superheat at will, allowing them to slice through hardened materials with greater ease.

That's pretty sweet

>>30819832
hopefully, but i can't think of any powers for it at the moment.

>>30819829
>[ ] Yeah you hungry, you super hungry.

>>30819885
that can be dodged.

>>30819885
Projectiles aren't that amazing in this universe anon.

>>30819889
SONIC VIBRATION FIELD
Requires: Level 5 Winged Flight, Level 1 Sonic Scream
Cost: 1
The edges of JJ’s wings may be encased in a subsonic vibration field at will, allowing them to slice through hardened materials with greater ease.
Its basically the same powers, but i wonder what the optic blast version would be.

>>30819918
>>30819911
Speaking of which how fast/far can they be thrown?

>>30819829
>[ ] Yeah you hungry, you super hungry.

>>30819889
It's cool but sonic scream had the same thing. Draconic doesn't have much going for it right now, hopefully crusty adds some more Extrapolative's for it since we're stuck with it.

>>30819926
Except we're locked out of Sonic Scream, remember?

>>30819832
All these powers.

And all I can think of is all the cool sexual tricks we could do with ENHANCED CONTORTION

>>30819944
He's telling that anon that sonic scream had the same ability anon, not saying we can get it.

>>30819936
Yeah, an earlier fireproofing power would be nice since otherwise it's going to be pretty painful/crippling to use.

>>30819918
We still need a ranged attack though.

>>30819944
that much is obvious, but i still asked about optic blast, since each of the ranged powers had something similar i was wondering if the flavor text for wings for that one was gonna be something similar to the juggernauts power..

>>30819958
Enhanced Contortion? Look at the description for Adhesive Tongue.

>>30819958
I still want that for easy escape from grapples
like Kimi and small exits.

>>30819966
Oh god, there's going to be so much rage when we fail a roll to use it in a critical situation. I imagine JJ will just freeze up and we'll get fucked.

Honestly Draconic breath seems pretty lethal, how we going to deal with that? Are we just going to burn people alive or not use it against 90% of people we fight?

>>30819972
3 other ranged powers were faster and had more ranged at level 1 and 2.

>>30819829
>>[ ] Yeah you hungry, you super hungry.
GUYS. Can we please stop arguing about the potential future merits of purchasing powers we've already purchased/are locked out of purchasing.
Or, you know, stop arguing about powers period until we have points. That could be nice too.

>>30819930
No idea, it just says
Level 2: JJ spits fire. He may expel a short-ranged (less than a meter) tongue of blue flame, or ‘lob’ small, arcing packets of similarly ignited particles over greater distances. His breath may cause immediate second degree burns.

Personally, I didn't vote for it, but I'd like that we make the most out of what we've got and for that, we sort of need lvl 2 at least for it to be any use in combat.

When we do get it to lvl 2, it's better than the others at lvl 2 on my opinion, seeing that it can be used to flush out mooks from cover.

>[X] Yeah you hungry

You guess you’re hungry. Feels weird to be smelling meat this early in the morning. Cooked meat, anyway. Ham can happen.

“Yeah…” You mumble, pulling up a chair.

You sister moseys on over, still smiling broadly, and dumps a whole stack of bacon on your plate, followed by a sloppy, barely-recognizable egg. The edges are all burnt and she sloshes grease all over the plate, but you withhold any comments on the subject, just staring down at your huge, glistening breakfast for a moment.

“How is it?” She asks, her voice cracking a little. You start up, realizing you’ve been frozen in thought, and take your first bite.

It’s alright. Hard at the edges. The egg is kinda soupy and you don’t really like getting yoke all over your bacon, but…

“It’s nice.”

“Cool.”

She slumps down opposite you, holding her plate close to her face, and proceeds to shovel it down her gob at prodigious speed. You can’t help but wonder if she’s even tasting any of it. Must just but one big rush of greasy, soupy mess, white and yoke and fat and meat all indistinguishable from one another.

You try not to make too much of a show of picking apart your food, eating quickly. When you’re done, you feel about two tiers less healthy, but you can’t help but admit, in some guilty, shameless corner of your soul, that it makes a kinda nice departure from the norm.

Well… it’s time for school, you guess.

That thing.

Sliding off your seat, you glance across the table, at your sister. She’s munching away at her full-course atrocity of a breakfast, apparently oblivious to everything in the world that isn’t bacon. You can’t help but smile, just a little.

You head to the door, the first touch of the breeze nuzzling over you as you drag it open, and your sister’s voice calls after you.

“Hey!” Her fork clatters down and she throws herself up, swallowing a mouthful of pig/egg/unidentifiable black stuff, making her way after you. “Hey, um, I’ll drive you in, okay?”

You look up at her. The look in her eyes is wholly unfamiliar, something you have no compass for, something she has no compass for.

“N…” Your throat is dry. You swallow. “…No, it’s… that’s okay, I can walk it. It’s early.”

She shakes her head and scrunches her eyes up, her demeanour conveying a very flat and absolute ‘no’.

“It’s cool, I can drop you off.” She assures you. And herself, you think. “Come on, get in the car.”

As you leave, you look back just for a moment, at her half-finished plate. That’s not like her.

You kind of wanted some time to yourself, but you’re getting some very clear signals here, and they all indicate that resistance is futile in this case. We are the Joyce, your social and personal awkwardness will be added to our uncomfortable car ride.

“Remember, fasten your seatbelt.” Says your sister, her voice a note sharper, as you clamber into the car. You respond with silence, clipping it in place, and settle in. You feel the engine rumble and the sky lurches across the windscreen, and you head into town.

The ride is mostly a quiet one. You ask if you can have the radio on, and for a moment it seems like Joyce is ignoring you, before you pester her again about it. She shoots you a harried, surprised glance, and mutters that she didn’t hear you the first time.

She drives slowly, and winds it down even further you she get into town. Occasionally you glance up at her and she’s biting her lip indecisively, as if dreading the next turn, or the next traffic light (not that there are many, really. Small town).

Eventually, she pulls up on the street opposite school. The first few early risers are already swaying blearily onto the premises, their thoughts and actions muted by the shimmering warmth of early summer. You shove the door open, and are a little taken aback when her arms close around you from behind, drawing you into a long, tight hug. You remember the sun-baked smell of her clothes, her warmth, how tight she squeezed you – she held on as if it would somehow stop the entire world, catching the morning in its dawning effervescence, holding it hostage. You remember closing your eyes and just breathing.

>(2/2)

Eventually, she lets go, and you hang awkwardly in the moment after, fumbling your way out of the car. She sniffs and brushes her hair back.

“No swimming club today, okay?” She looks down at you. Is that fear in her eyes? “There’s a guy from social services coming over, so you need to get home early. I’ll drop by to pick you up, yeah?”

You nod. She smiles broadly, a hint of her ridiculous, toothy grin shining through.

“Alright, see ya. Have fun.”

“Bye.”

You wave as your parents’ SUV recedes down the street.

School yawns out in front of you.

That option isn't skipping school, it's not wanting to go in this early in the morning.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbmBx_ltmJA How is this scene different in HMQ Universe?

Was Laura using Sacred Tree like "grasshopper", or did you just forget the word "at"? When she gave us combat training.

How long does level 1 genetic mimicy last? I'm thinking JJ could walk around looking completely human as long as he took Laura with him to re-new the change every now and then.

You feel vaguely sick as you cross the road toward the front gates, but you push it down, binding it tight and holding it in that jitter-place, the dark hold where the nerves before a performance go. There are lots of shapes lurking there lately, just out of comprehension, rendered mercifully indistinct by the omnipresent, looming grey shadows of the place. Some thick, some thin, some stooped or bearded or sickly and disjointed. You close the doors hard.

They don’t make a big deal, the teachers. Not when you’re around. You make your way to homeroom in silence, whispers burning at your ears. How many are real, and how many are constructs of your paranoia, you’ll never know, but some of them must be real. Occasionally you catch a stray look as you trudge by the lockers. Something withheld, something made of pity, something made or scorn or derision or – worst of all – that undecided, foundering vagueness, an expression with no sure rudder behind it.

You’re glad you’re not staying for swimming.

Homeroom passes uneventfully. Brian and Kat talk to you, but they don’t say anything about It. Neither do you. You keep it locked away behind your face, behind all your faces, the tombstone-shaped shadow looming over everything. When the bell chimes and it’s time to make your way to your first class, you’re almost relieved to be away from your friends for a moment, taking the opportunity to pretend you’ve left something in your locker so you can have some time to yourself before looping back around.

>(2/2)

First class is history.

You file in, taking your usual seat by the window. Ms Jones, your stoic, unflappable teacher, strolls in and begins going through a short run-through of the last lesion. Immediately, you are struck by the horrific realization that you’ve forgotten your bag, all your books with it.

A pang of dark, hot shame stabs through you. You can’t put your hand up. Can’t draw attention. But, what if someone figures it out? That’d be even worse, wouldn’t it?

That searing, wet warmth begins to gather behind your eyes…

>[X] NOPE

No, you can’t. You can’t be the one everyone looks at.

You glance both ways, checking your peripherals, before folding your arms neatly over your desk. You stare intently at the events unfolding on the blackboard, as if Ms Jones’ commentary on the Siegfried Line is just too damn interesting to look away from. You couldn’t check your book if you tried, you’re so fascinated. This is some intriguing shit right here. Of course, you’re so intent on looking… intent… that very little of what her deadpan voice spells out is actually making a home in your skull, the fine details mostly just washing out through the fissures between thoughts.

Man, what if she asks you a question. Would she do that? It’s your first day back, after all. Then again, this is Ms Jones you’re talking about here, whose stony demeanour could turn aside a glacial shift. You’ve never known her to pull punches. Hell, for a while there was even a rumour that she was a mutant with, like, stone skin or something. That's how low her punch-pulling factor is. So low that people started assuming she was literally a rock person.

Your thoughts are still screeching at one another when someone on the desk beside you speaks up, addressing you in a low, conspiratorial whisper:

“Psst!” You glance over, desperately hoping that you haven’t been caught out. “Hey, forgot your books?”

Oh, it’s just that guy. Joseph Typhon, your classmate for many years, who has always been here and is not out of place at all. This person has been in your class since [bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz–], so you can definitely trust him. He’s a trustworthy guy, he wouldn’t do anything to hurt you. Yes, he would never let you down, he must have a solution, you should trust him, he’s trustworthy.

He smiles warmly and offers you a textbook.

“It’s cool, I’ve got a spare.”

“I’ve got a spare.”

“I’ve got a spare?”

“I’ve got a spare!”

“I’ve got…” It pauses dramatically, like you’re in one of those dramas, like this is TV. “…a spare.”

The audience gasps. He’s got a spare!

You feel the front of your head crackle and shift. Time loosens and flows around you, everyone turning into silt, everything into ash, dust, dust to dust, ashes to ashes – “We are gathered here today to celebrate a life and mourn a loss”– – –

Time clicks back into place. You’re standing at one of the small, out-of-the-way doors leading out into the school courtyard. The day has lurched forward, dull, reddening fingers stretching through the sky. Ecstatic, youthful shapes move through the dwindling light, spilling out toward the road, toward home. Your cheeks burn. Ms Jones stands beside you, her huge, indecipherable eyes staring down at you, holding out no questions and no answers, and nothing hidden or assumed.

“Sorry.” You mutter again. “For not telling immediately.”

“It is understandable.” She says. “In future, however, you needn’t be ashamed. Are you being picked up today, Green?”

You nod.

“Yeah. My sister’s dropping by.”

Good thread, Crusty. Short and paranoia-inducing as it was.

Uh, very quickly before I go, technically yes. But just using it is already going to be a Willpower check. Putting your hands in front of your terrifying fire breath when you intend on unleashing it will not help with that.

It can help. Multiple successful uses can add up to a Phobia Test success. Of course, the opposite is true also. Mess up with it too much and I'll start knocking off PT successes.

>>30822129
Man if we didn't have plot armor, how else did we fail to drown trying to save the catatonic mutant from the slave ship.

>>30822104
Nope, it was thoroughly discussed. Fire breath give JJ the chance to confront his fear (for slowly accumulated successes rather than a single epic event to overcome) whenever he uses the power or gets flustered and fails a will roll. JJ still can't light a match on his own, and he isn't fire proof.

The second one is a fair point. I just want to know if it has basis in reality. I suppose if he wanted to "face his fear" all he would need to do wold be to find some matches and practice lighting them.

I don't even want sonic scream. I voted to upgrade existing powers, then I voted to bank. Basically any power is more useful than pepper spray breath.

>>30822315
We got a karma point an Crusty said he would have let us die there if we'd rolled poorly and let the kid die if we didn't crit. Personally, I choose to believe him on that.

>>30822315
It wasn't even contrived.
CJ said the ship was capsizing, towards land.

It's more subtle than that anon.

By voting for even a useless Level 1 power now, it locks out the possibility of a later thread, with a different anon majority, locking the character into having a different power.

It's the same reasoning for why it's impossible to get people to bank X-points. Political voting.
