Time nonsense aside, you have some tomfuckery of your own to do. First thing first? Testing out your new antlers. You open up your closet and, with a small sigh, you take Naomi's advice on how best to cut some horns into every piece of clothing you have with a hood. It's a slow, annoying process but you literally bought an extra two hours (you think?) so you have time to spare. Small circles of cloth and leather fall to the floor every minute or so.
After twenty minutes, you have antler-proofed all of your clothes and hats that matter. Looking down at the pile of circular cloth and leather pieces cut out of your outfits, you wonder something. No point letting these go to waste. You levitate a handful of circular leather pieces into the air with no resistance and, with a deep breath, you focus with your antlers.
You decide to try to see if they can be used as a focus. A wand, almost. After your deep breath, you begin to strain your telekinesis through your antlers to get any sort of reaction out of them. A throbbing headache unlike what you normally feel when you use your powers immediately makes itself known. You're on the right track at least.
Letting your hands rest by your sides, you try your best to focus every inch of your telekinesis through your antlers. Sparks of orange and pink energy crackle from your antlers as, suddenly...
>22. SUCCESS!
A bright flash of light erupts from the pieces of leather you were messing with. No, not just any light. They're in <span class="mu-r">flames</span> now. In the corner of your eye, you can just barely see your reflection in the bathroom mirror. Your antlers are <span class="mu-b">glowing</span> a bright orange-pink hue as the leather pieces continue to burn.
The moment you stop focusing, the pieces drop to the floor into melting heaps of burnt leather.
[SCHOLAR OF THE CITY] Leather doesn't start to melt like that until you reach 550 degrees.
[ANOMALOUS ABILITIES] Your telekinesis can damage objects but not like this. It's normally only able to crush things on par with your grip strength. So to press down on leather so hard, it heats up to 550? That's damn impressive.
[SCHOLAR OF THE CITY] Granted, this was with tiny circles of leather. A full jacket or more durable materials would require more effort.
>ANTLER ABILITY REVEALED: FOCUS (You may spend 1 FLESH, 1 RESTRAINT, or increase the DC of a power activation by +4 to temporarily boost the next power you use. This may unlock choices otherwise impossible with your regular abilities. A list has been added to MAIN CHARACTER SHEET)
Hot damn. You don't mind these things. You use your antler-focused telekinesis to ignite every loose piece of fabric and leather laying around before, with a simple thought, your phone levitates up to your ear. You dial in the number Kiara gave you and wait for someone to pick up.
