"Excuse me." You turn away from the group to promptly chomp down on some literal moss and a hunk of stone. Anything for an advantage.
"I-Is she doing what-"
"Yep!" Lex firmly smacks Phi on the back. "Don't question it. It's how she gets inspiration."
>-1 DREAMY MOSS AND MOONSTONE FRAGMENT.
You immediately spin back around and firmly plant your hands on Phi's shoulders. "Quentin, go check on the elevator. I have something to show her."
"OKAY. DON'T FRY HER BRAIN." Quentin almost unfurls his wings but after remembering what happened last time, he decides to just walk down the hallway instead.
"That's something you can do?" Phi can't decide whether to be worried or intrigued at the prospect. "I kinda wanna see it now."
You decide to go with PUPPETEERING since it's probably more immediately threatening than, say, Telekinesis. You want to shock and awe her after all.
You reach your hand out to shoot out dozens of translucent pink strings that only Lex and Ashley react to (given that it seems only anomalous humans can see this ability.) They latch onto her arms and legs, allowing you full control of her body.
>28!
At first Phi doesn't seem to notice what's going on but as she attempts to move, you keep her rooted where she's standing. She glances around, only her head still mobile, trying to process what exactly is going on.
You then promptly disarm her by telekinetically ripping out her service pistol from her holster.
You wonder how it's this easy. Even with a pair of gloves that makes using your powers easier, you should be burning RESTRAINT to puppeteer h-
[CAPTAIN'S COMMAND] Consider it a one time favor. Keep going.
"W-what the...okay, wow, I. I think I've seen ONE anomaly that could freeze people but telekinesis as well-" She lets out a small yelp as all of a sudden, a patch on her left shoulder begins to smolder. FOCUSED TELEKINESIS is a hell of a power.
That's when you finally let her go. She stumbles to the floor now that your PUPPETEER strings have been dispelled. She pats out the smoldering part of her uniform before rearming herself. "...Father Above. You could've killed me if you wanted to, huh?"
"Probably! Though I would be immediately gunned down by your eleven comrades once you screamed. I'm not bulletproof." Well you can sometimes block them but you think you've done enough for now.
"Fair! Yeah, yeah, you'll be a good asset. The last time I ever worked with an anomaly was, I dunno, when Zeta-" She clears her throat. "Nevermind."
>+1 P-CORP FAVOR! +RESPECT WITH REVOLUTINARIES
"Maybe don't set her shit on fire next time, though." Alexis firmly smacks her hand onto your shoulder. "You do realize how bad they could've looked, right?"
[SIXTH SENSE] "Eh. I would've stopped her if it was going too far."
"Disgusting displays of power only barley tempered by the will of humanity." It's funny how much of a hypocrite Wendy is being.
"Yeah, yeah, hey. Wendy. Ashley. Go talk with Phi for a bit. I gotta talk with Alexis real quick."
