My bunny slippers just ran for cover

[will_you_still]

Morgan doesn't strictly need to sleep. Even if she didn't want to put up with the annoyance of constantly having a caffeine buzz and having to ask for coffee on almost every summon, there are naps. Naps can keep a daeva going for quite a long time.

But there's something unutterably pleasant about curling up in a proper bed in pajamas and just sleeping. And then waking up and getting breakfast in those pajamas. So she does that, because immortality's a long unpleasant time if you don't enjoy the little things every now and then. Like adorable bunny slippers and soft pajamas and sleeping in.

She's midway through a fruity salad thing that counts as the standard fairy breakfast when she feels the summon. Showing up to a summon in pajamas? Eh. If they're proper summoners she bets they've seen worse, and she doesn't particularly care if they think she's unprofessional.

She puts her spoon down and accepts the summon.

"My go-to method for hurting the Leviathan was to telekinetically throw myself at him as fast as I could to hit him, over and over," says Morgan, flatly. "If he only has human capabilities, he would be physically incapable of hurting me beyond a scratch. My concern is not that he could hurt me and I couldn't see it coming, it is that he could potentially warp my definition of what hurts me, or convince me to hurt myself."

He pauses to consider this. "Given what we have dealt with already with Strangers, it would not be too surprising if he could do either of those things and merely chose not to, but he never has."

[will_you_still]

"I am not dismissing the possibility, merely clarifying."

[peterxy]

He nods. "Screamer can control sound arbitrarily within her range, which is quite extensive. She can generate or negate any sounds at any given point, to the point that she can make you believe something she's saying is actually one of your thoughts. She also has quite impressive multitasking skill."

[will_you_still]

"Does she perceive all of the sounds within her range, as well?"

[peterxy]

"Yes."

[will_you_still]

Nod. Note to self: text based communication of some kind.

"If I were to have a perfectly soundproofed helmet, would she perceive all sounds that occur therein?"

[peterxy]

"Yes."

[will_you_still]

Which completely dismisses all forms of talk-to-text communication, it has to be entirely silent.

Morgan nods.

"Miasma has the ability to become completely undetectable and release an odorless disabling gas that causes headaches, ringing in the ears, watery eyes, blindness, memory loss, and coma, in order depending on how long you're exposed to it."

[will_you_still]

"Can the gas be filtered out of the air in some fashion?"

[peterxy]

"No."

[will_you_still]

"What about breathing from oxygen tanks? Or not breathing at all?"

[peterxy]

"Miasma's gas will find its way through any aperture in any breathing equipment you use. Not breathing at all may work, though it hasn't been tried." For obvious reasons.

[will_you_still]

Well if she doesn't need to say anything, not breathing doesn't add anything besides mild discomfort.

Another nod! Gosh, so much nodding.

"The last one's Shatterbird. Silicokinesis, with increasing precision the closer her target is to herself. The Slaughterhouse Nine has taken to announcing their arrival by exploding everything made of glass on the city they're attacking. Furthermore, she uses glass embedded on her costume to fly, create decorative wings, conjure shields, and manufacture weapons."

[will_you_still]

"Does she sense glass as well as control it?"

[peterxy]

"Possibly, but since she can only control to very fine degrees glass that's relatively close to her it's not unthinkable that she does not."

[will_you_still]

".... So it is highly likely that I completely eclipse her."

[peterxy]

"Yes."

[will_you_still]

She smiles a little. "Good to know. Mind, this doesn't mean I could completely prevent her from causing all sorts of mayhem, because it is very hard for two powerful telekinetics that don't have omniscience to stop one another when fighting on a large scale. But it's nice."

[peterxy]

"Indeed." He types a few more things into his laptop that don't get reflected on what he's projecting onto the TV. "Do you have an email? I can send you this information in text form. Mind you, I can't give you access to the system."

[will_you_still]

She needed an e-mail to sign up to the forums! So she has one, and tells him of it.

"I understand," she agrees, sounding like she actually does.

[peterxy]

Tap tap. She has received an email with all the information the Protectorate currently has on the Nine, including past members, a list of crimes, known previous locations, etc.

"Excellent, thank you. Now, would you actually like to coordinate about local villains? I don't mind taking out one or two while I'm here to assuage suspicion as to why I'm here."
