Oh, sweet. Did the porter give it to you? [He thinks, immediately, of Gogo. Her power went a little haywire, she knows, but she couldn't help it. And besides, even some pretty destructive powers are still interesting, both in concept and in execution. Jaime just prefers it when they're not actively killing anyone.

And as for his power... Jaime, of course, lies.]

Mine's boring, [he says smoothly, wrinkling his nose like it bothers him.] I can do, uh, body scans? Like, I can see if someone's gonna get diabetes, or if they're pregnant, or what percentage of their body is fat. Stuff like that.

[incogneto]

Wouldn't you be more useful at a hospital?

[ Like maybe mechanics is his passion but... he should at least volunteer or something. And that must get exhausting, but then again, Erik thinks there are a couple powers he knows of that would get tiresome. ]

And no. I've had this power since I was a boy.

[khajidont]

Only if people wanted me to do general bodyscans all day long. It's not really something I've ever wanted to do.

[Hospital work is his mom's domain, and when he spends his nights saving lives one way, he doesn't want to spend his days telling people about their various maladies. It would get draining on the soul quick. Medicine's never been his calling.]

But at least you got plenty of time to get used to it! It's sort of weird for a lot of people to come here and then suddenly it's like, surprise! You're a metahuman now!

[incogneto]

At the very least, here, there's a support group.

[ Of. Like. Everyone else. That would've been nice as a kid. ]

I would've hoped at home to create a community like the one we have here.

[ Anyway... ]

Thank you, for this card. I'll give you a call.

[khajidont]

Sure thing. You know where to find me, [Jaime says, giving Erik a lazy sort of salute as he leans back into his chair.] Be sure to tell them about the whole magnet thing!
