Questions, Luceti! I've got maybe three.

1. Are there any princesses here? --I'll have follow-ups on this one if you agree.

2. Does Luceti have a copy machine that can blow up photos?

3. Does anyone know a lot about robots, hacking, really tall ladders, or shifts?

Thanks!

Thanks for the sympathy. [ It's not like Yuri was asking for it, but.. people had a right to know. She wasn't one of those people who kept all of their darkness bottled up. It didn't help even if she talked about it though, like everyone said it was supposed to. ] It's a reason to keep fighting, even after death though.

It is, and I'm happy you do it. I'd keep going too.

I never had to go through it, but a lot of kids that come to the Institute at home, their parents kinda rejected them because of their powers. My friend was even cast away by her whole village. It gets pretty hard and scary. I always wish I could do more, ya know?

[ Yuri looks thoughtful for a moment. This is something she's dealt with a lot, being the leader of a group of teenagers who all had screwed up lives. ]

Just don't leave anyone behind, even if they screw up. That's more than enough.

I'd never leave anyone behind. [She's really serious about this too.]

Then I'm definitely glad to have you on board~

Great. I can't wait until I'm able to help, and I'll get started on studying, like, ASAP.

Thanks. I'll try to see if I can't get some more people so you aren't working along in the SSS Science Division!

That would be great. And I'll totally keep my eye out too.

Thanks. [ She leans back in her chair. ] Anything else you need to know?

I can't think of anything. I'm excited to be part of a group again.

What did the group you were in before do?

We protect our world. There are of threats out there.

Like superheroes?

I guess. I mean we're all mutants and stuff.

You've got superpowers, so as long as you're protecting people you get to be superheroes. [ She pauses. ] I've got something but it's more because I'm dead. It didn't go away even when I came here so I get the feeling that even though I am alive here it's not quite the same. Like whatever's keeping me around knows I'm not supposed to be here. [ Yuri's pulling out a knife now, god knows where from-- she'll keep it a secret forever-- and cuts the back of her hand. It's not healing right away, obviously, but she wipes the knife off on a napkin and puts it away. Give it a minute or so and it'll be gone since it's a minor injury. ]

Wow! [She stares for a moment.] It's kinda like Mr. Logan. He's able to heal quickly too. That's really cool, Yuri.

Not really. Dead people can't die again, so everyone from the afterlife does this. Some people faster than others, and there's no way to stop it. We could get chopped into a million pieces and be okay. Here apparently this won't help if I get fatally wounded so it's basically useless unless I break something. If I could have anything, I would've aimed for the other thing we could do from my world!

What's the other thing you can do in your world?

Make anything we have in our memory out of dirt as long as we know the parts. So say I remembered the parts for a handgun, I could easily make a handgun. Same with a rocket launcher or a pinwheel or a popsicle stick. Basically anything non-living as long as we know what the parts look like.

Wow! That is an amazing gift. I'm sure my friend from home, Forge, would love it. He'd build anything and everything.

I don't know that it was really a gift as much as a part of the way the world worked, which is probably why we can't do it here. It takes a really long time anyway.

Hmmm. I guess we can get everything we want there anyway, so it doesn't matter.

Either way! There's plenty left for us to work with, powers aside.

There is, and I'm totally happy to help.
