[ Given the new call for people with powers and otherwise, well. Someone's got questions of his own. A very strange request is making its way onto the network. ]

query
regarding: powers (superhuman or otherwise)

necessity:

the ability to warp time
the ability to erase time
effective erasure
anything relative one may find similar

screen inquiries, if possible.
compensation will be available.

( ooc: Yes. He's looking for someone who can possibly erase someone entirely from existence. Now, this power's probably going to be nerfed too much to use even if someone DOES have it here. However, that doesn't mean that someone who doesn't even necessarily have it can't take advantage of the situation. )
( Have fun :) )

None of that is even remotely safe or advisable.

i know. big changes. potential ripples. but this change won't cause many ripples.

i'm not killing hitler or something.

Even small ripples can expand.

What are you trying to accomplish?

can you do it?

No, I don't think so. And even if I could, I wouldn't.

[ The feed clicks over, and there's a bedraggled, androgynous and cross-looking boy who sounds simultaneously weakened from coughing and yet belligerent, angry at her for prying. ]

Then what does it matter to you?

[Jenny is unfazed.]

I tend to get antsy when people talk about messing about with timelines. It's genetic, I think.

Are you ill?

[ Just as unphased, he answers too: ] Yes. Irrelevant.

What does time matter to you? It's not your time.

Time is time. One little thing out of place and poof! The whole universe could go. Basic temporal law.

And who says that's a bad thing? Maybe it'll better things. Maybe it won't affect anything at all.

Some bad parts of the world could stand to be rewritten. They're ugly. We don't need them.

Why.

[ Just that. He isn't even going to private it, because anyone looking for super human powers gets his attention immediately and Erik doesn't take kindly to it. ]

necessary. i had a deal with someone back home but he isn't here.

why not?

Here is not the same situation as back home. You're deliberately calling someone out for what they can do.

Again. You'd risk someone for a selfish reason. Why?

[She just smiles softly]

The ugly things make the beautiful things worth it. Light can't exist without dark, even if you can't stand it. Erasure is just another way of trying to find your way out of the dark.

why not? everyone knows about powers here. you don't have to be so secret. for instance: i have "powers" too. simple.

if they're smart, they won't publicize it. they know my number, and they know my room. simple.

And if the ugly outweighs the beautiful, then what? It's just how some greater deity wanted the world?

[ His face hardens in contest to her smile, eyes very blue and very sharp. ]</small. That's silly.

Just because the situation is publicized means nothing.

[ So while you have a point, Erik isn't inclined to agree. ]

Especially with the abilities you're discussing. You'd want someone like that to come out in the open?

to mean "nothing" would imply nothing has changed. the "empowered" to "human" ratio here is much different from home. most of all "normal" already know and are accustomed to the powers. it means everything.

of course i wouldn't. i'd want to handle the matter privately. what else they do with their power or their publicity of it is their own business. this is mine.

Majority rule is insignificant. Non human rule might overwhelm here, but it's clear they don't hold the powers aboard the ship.

Fair enough. But you're still inviting them to come out in the open nevertheless with such a comment.

i just don't see why it matters. if they have a problem with it, eliminate the threat.

they can send private messages. or they can come to the room that corresponds to my number. i don't care how they do it. i just care if they can do it.

[She shakes her head, not bothered by Yoite's hard expression.]

It doesn't really. Outweigh the beautiful, I mean. It might seem like it sometimes, but everything has a balance, if you know how to look for it. Maybe you're not looking in the right places. Or maybe you've just had a bit of crap luck so far.

Subtle much?

subtlety would be unnecessary. difficult to decode. results are more important.

so now they know.

I've looked, I gave everything and I had it -

[ 'Crap luck'. Like he's trying to get a dollar back from the vending machine. Yoite starts breathing hard and very carefully, trying to keep his recently-spent body calmed. He can't risk a heart attack here. ]

They put erasers on pencils for a reason, you know. Some things aren't meant to be. Time isn't written in ink.

[ Fine. Just as long as they do it as opposed to being made a public example, which is all Erik's concern is about in the first place. ]

Asking to eliminate a threat aboard a ship like this is guaranteed an open brawl.
