Actually, changing my vote to
>[x] Gaby’s teleportation makes her a priority.
She will be much harder to find later on thanks to her trail getting cold.

>>34463277
Kevin will be the third hardest. He doesn't leave much of a scent, on account of any organic substance decaying around him.

Maybe we can follow the decay, but he's a walking sterilizer.

>[X] Layla

Layla is literally a one-adolescent crowd. You really don’t know how her power works, whether it’s biological or… quantum or something… but she doesn’t seem to have a ‘numero uno’ body anymore – if there’s one Layla still running it doesn’t matter how many of them you catch.

So that pretty much has to be nipped in the bud.

Breathing deep, you catch her scent – sweaters and shampoo, old socks, baked beans – and set out.

Kevin, Lucas, and Noriko should be easy to track down

Laura is final boss

>>34463638

Sure.

Kevin - Be invisible and throw shit at him to immobilize before touching jacket.

Noriko - Same

Lucas - Invisible and grapple

Reminder that getting Claws and Fangs to Rank 2 unlocked some neat extrapolatives, including the ability to get (retractable) horns and (more interestingly) extendable, prehensile arm blades. Folks might want to take a look between Crusty posts just to see what's available.

>>34463638

That sounds like a good plan to me, though saving Laura for last is probably going to mean we're gonna have to make some crazy good rolls in order to catch her.

>>34463830
What about the retractable spine tail thing?

>>34463830

>>34463830
Yeah, I'd worry more about her having prep time than Gabby. Layla's still a good first target because she can be a crowd. The others should get a little more prep because the training's mostly for them.

>bueno success

You move fast over the snow, bounding through the skeletonized remains of inner-city infrastructure will little difficulty. It soon strikes you that you know this route – Layla seems to be headed to the old garbage tip further into the Scar. Hoping the months of unattended waste will throw off your nose, maybe, or just going to familiar ground.

It doesn’t take long for you to catch up with her. For all her adolescent energy, she’s not exactly Speedy Gonzales. You trace her scent up the side of a skewed, half-buried apartment complex, invisible and mostly inaudible, palms adhered as if by Van der Waals forces to the worn brickwork.

She’s breathing heavily inside.

You strike.

The window-frame rushes by you as you burst into the apartment, becoming visible in mid-flight, and you cannot describe how satisfying the look of terror on Layla’s face is before you hoist her up off the ground.

“Gah!” She screams and kicks, and another her flickers into existence, running away at full acceleration. The Layla in your arms blows raspberries in your face before dematerializing, leaving you with an armful of suddenly empty air.

Hmmm.

>>34463854

Claws 3.

>>34463866

Agreed.

>>34463869

Gaby, due to not using powers much, may get tired quickly and will be easier to catch.

Layla's been practicing like a motherfucker.

>>34463830
I'm not even thinking of any other extrapolatives before we get Echolocation.

>>34463830
Healing Vitae. We medic nao

>>34463854

That too. I just didn't mention it because it requires Rank 3 in Claws.

>>34463866

Not sperging anon, just wanted to mention it now before the usual hubbub that comes at the end of the threads.

>>34463869

Well, since Laura is used to (and prepared for) Agility 3 JJ, maybe we'll have a better chance of catching her off guard?

>>34463901
>>34463902
Save power shit till the thread is done.

>(2/2)

You give chase. Kinda interesting that she’s not darting in all directions – maybe she’s too tired. Still, you can’t catch her as long as she can replicate.

As she reaches the stairs, the wall beside her blasted out into a vista of the scar’s jagged horizon, an idea strikes you. Putting on a burst of speed, you over take her instantly, grabbing the back of her sweater. You feel her tense up - she's gonna pound the ground, build up some energy for multiplication.

And then you jump straight out of the building.

“Oh crap oh crap oh cra”–

The snow down below softens your fall, but Layla doesn’t reach the ground with you. Putting that newfound dexterity of yours to use, you snag her sweater on one of the floorboards that jut out across the ruined side of the building.

She sways there, eyes screwed up, until she realizes she’s not headed toward the ground. You practically feel the surge of relief ebb and vanish when she opens her eyes.

“Holy, holy…” Her voice trails off into a hiss. “Y-you win, okay? Get me down!”

>[X] Yarp.

“Is that an official declaration of surrender?” You call up to her, grinning crookedly. You’re enjoying this possibly a bit too much.

She nods frantically, eying the drop. You guess it probably seems higher from up there. Or when you’re a tiny little person.

You scarper up the side of the building, unhooking her with a free hand. She latches on to you immediately, burying her head in your shoulder, and you feel a very (very) small pang of guilt. She’s so good at being a butt, you sometimes forget that Layla’s actually just a kid, really.

You climb down rather than leap off, mostly for Layla’s benefit.

“You okay?”

She nods

“Good.”

You consider your next move.

An extrapolative that makes that level of control (nearly)instantaneous

>>34464330
That would be the task master powers essentially.
While it allows copying of moves, it also gives an intrinsic understanding of your body's positioning and abilitys in order to do that.

>[X] Gaby.

Well, Gaby’s already demonstrated the ability to give you whole heaps of trouble, and not just the traumatic family kind either. So you guess she’s next.

“You wanna let go?” You ask Layla, who is presently doing her best to imitate a barnacle. She shakes her head.

Ah.

Okay then.

“Alrighty.” That’s cool, you’re good. She’s pretty light. You’ll figure it out. “How about we go get Gaby, then she can go back to the station with you. That sound good?”

There is a brief, thoughtful silence, and then she nods again.

“Okay then, up we go…” Coaxing her loose, you shrug off your jacket and wrap it around your waist before letting Layla back up onto your back. Gaby’s scent is kinda distant – unsurprisingly, she’s put quite a bit of ground between you and her. “Hold on tight, okay?”

She mumbles a “Yeah”, and you let your arms distend, fingers warping into wingspan, skin stretching into membrane. You push off against the ground and take flight. You feel Layla’s heart pound in her chest, and her knuckles whiten around your shoulders.

You follow the smell of freshly shampooed fur all the way out to the edge of the scar, where the buildings are a little less decimated. As luck would have it, you spot Gaby moving across open ground – and she’s not alone. Kevin’s with her. You smile to yourself. Kevin’s hard to track, so that’s a spot of good luck right there.

They pause, and Gaby points up at you. A short dialogue passes between the two and they split in opposite directions.

Kevin might be hard to track, but we can do so by scent AND heat vision.

>>34464604

Kevin we can track by footprints. Gaby has a scent, but catching her is a whole nother deal.

His powers eat his SMELL too?

>>34464699

His powers destroy any (or most) bacteria on his skin.

>>34464643
We know he has seen us, so I'd guess we expect him to resist. Invis should help us out here, provided Layla keeps quiet.
If we don't go after him now, Gaby will lead us quite some distance away and we'll have a hard time finding him again

>>34464717
Yeah, but smells are more than than skin-bacteria. Like a lot more.

>>34464699
Sorta. It eats the dead skin, bacteria, dust, grime, sweat, and pretty much anything that makes smells.

>>34464770
So basically what we're smelling is the stuff he's carrying.

>[X] Actually this is a good opportunity to catch Kevin.

“Okay, Layla, slight change of plans…”

“Wait, what’re you”–

You veer off in Kevin’s direction, plunging straight down through the sky, the wind rattling in your ears. Layla screams, but it’s not a bad scream – you can smell the adrenaline colouring her blood, heart pounding, lungs opening up like floodgates. You guess you’re a pretty okay rollercoaster.

Kevin pretty much didn’t stand a chance. Inside, he’d be a nightmare, every wall essentially a door to be opened by him, but on open ground it’s a different story. His legs pound valiantly through the snow but your descent is just too fast – you swoop in and adhere the back of his jacket straight to the soles of your boots, a shocked cry bubbling up in his throat as you lift him off the ground.

“Gotcha.”

“Whoa, whoa, haha, okay dude…” He puts his hands up in surrender, grinning up at you. “Just make sure not to go skin-to-skin there…”

You smile back down at him and drop altitude, letting that fuzzy, electric-y adhesion stuff fizzle out. He hits the ground running.

“Cshrrk.” You put on the most nasally, this-is-your-captain-speaking voice you can manage without the assistance of your hands, twisting about in the air to veer off in Gaby’s direction. “Alright folks, after that slight detour Lizard Air is back on course…”

“You are so lame…” Shouts Layla, straining to raise her voice above the wind. She still laughs a little, though.

You swoop in on Gaby and find yourself hitting an expanding cloud of broken, distorted space, the air around you crackling with latent electricity. You shoot straight through it and adjust your vision into the thermal range, scanning the nearby horizon for hotspots.

Windows, windows, blue, grey, little streaks of tentative green – there! You see a blotch of bright, fiery orange warmth explode into being amidst the shell of an old factory.

You close in, swooping in through the shattered roof. Down below, amidst the remains of the machines, a surprisingly not-so-surprised Gaby glances up at you, bursting into motion across the factory floor, her loping stride easily cutting through the mishmash of broken apparatuses. You can’t help but notice that she lowers herself onto all four limbs when pressured for speed – and it helps, apparently, the diminutive girl seeming to move in a long, slick blur, her tail swaying frantically behind, keeping her balanced.

She vanishes again, popping back into existence further along the structure, where the dense machinery is probably in particularly in favour of flight. Descending to one of the remaining walkways, you gnarl your wings back up into arms and head off after her, reaching the end of the factory – not the exit, the end, it just cuts out into rubble and sky – just in time to see her take another jump.

Crusty is posting again, can the jokes

>(2/3)

Hmmm.

You sniff for that greasy, ozone smell she leaves behind. She’s down below, in the rubble – right below, you actually.

You leap, Layla tightening her grip on your back, and catch a stray length of rebar, using it to turn on a dime and propel you back into the ruins below. You catch a glimpse of Gaby’s eyes – that familiar, blue-green coalescence – blinking in the dark, focusing on you, and you realize you’re close enough to smell the sweat running under her fur.

Another shower of bright, electrical sparks and she’s gone – behind you. Not far this time, either. Must be getting tired.

The breath rattles in your lungs as you pursue. She’s heading out into the light, into the open streets. You’re better across this terrain, though, the distance between you closing quickly. She’ll jump in a moment. She’ll –

>>34465870
But x points would take n threads to get! No way we could focus long enough to get it, we should just spend them now!

>>34465881
we'll be good.

>>34465881
>the jokes
Stop posting.

>(3/3)
>I'd honestly nearly forgotten about Geointuitive Vision until now

Something strewn through the rubble catches your attention. A long, rusted iron chain, discarded in the ruins. Your brain is immediately plotting courses and extrapolating distances.

You feel the static build along Gaby’s shoulders – you’re close enough to taste it. The sparks fly. You reach out, the metal cold against your palms, and concentrate. Listening, tasting, stretching your awareness, anticipating the flash of electrical heat, the greasy scent of teleportation. She vanishes, space furling inwards unnaturally in her wake, and…

Above. Back the way you came. She’s doubling back. Tricking you.

You spin on your heels, whipping the chain around in your grasp. Gaby appears in mid-air, above one of the tumbled, discard machines, the tunnel of careening, strange light warping the air around her, and you feel your brain explode into torrents of information – ups, downs, adjustments, vectors. You adjust the turn of your wrist very slightly, and the chain coils straight around her ankle.

“Ack!”

You pull.

Gaby rushes through the air toward you. She explodes into blistering, electrical nothing for a moment, before popping back out into reality on the exact same vector. You lower your knees in preparation, taking a deep breath, before she slams into you, sending you sliding across the back of your heels.

Your arms put her in a big scaly vice.

You’d say that qualifies as caught.

It's harder with some characters.

There are a few that don't look quite like their 616 equivalents. Lucas for example is scrawny kid, not a giant 90's musclemonster.

Toss Gabby over our shoulder, we;re super strong, we can take her.

>>34466061
I think she has adhesive touch, so she should be able to hang on better than Layla.
But I don't think stacking muggas while flying is aerodynamic.

>>34466037
I just wanted to say that I really like Victoria's character and concept/powers. If she's an original of yours (which I think she is), then know that you managed to get me engaged in her story through only a couple of scenes. Really, thanks for creating her.

Gabby would definitely help if we lost Layla mid-flight.
We should try passenger training, just stack as many people as we can and try to fly. Probably not Kevin though, unless we hold him with our feet.

>[X] Lucas.

“Hey, Gaby.” You breathe out heavily, feeling your shoulder curl inwards in protest. That chase took a lot out of you.

Gaby blinks, her expression thoroughly stunned, and glances across the rubble.

“Um… what, uh, just happened…?”

You lift the chain in one hand, metal links chirping off one another. You notice that one end has been violently, abruptly severed from reality, the entire length attached to Gaby apparently lose somewhere in the folds between space. What remains in your hand trails away into a very, very hot – like, white hot – mess.

“Oh…” She looks down at her leg, as though she can still feel the touch of the metal.

“You alright?”

“Ah, yes, I am fine.” She rolls her shoulders, as if getting a feel for herself, and smiles her tentative little smile. Her eyes widen a bit as she glances over you. “Is that… Layla… on your back?”

“Yeah. Speaking of…” You poke an elbow up under Layla’s ribs. “Time to get off. I got scrubs to catch.”

“Nah, ack”– She squirms, pulling herself away from the intruding limb. “I’m good.”

Argh.

“Look, kid,” You ease yourself down onto the rubble, your legs groaning. “The ride is officially over. Either you get off or I’m going nowhere.”

No response.

“Do I have to zap you off?”

“You wouldn’t dare.” She grins in your ear, laughing quietly.

Throw something heavy and non-conductive at her and sit on top of it.

Also something not deadly, too.

>>34466471
If we stop while running as fast as JJ does, she'll get hurt pretty bad - so no. And she'd fall if we start doing crazy acrobatic stuff.

We need to get Layla on solid ground, she kinda seems to have fear-rigor mortis. Unless the runt actually wants to fly, then we can take her flying later.

Why the fuck didn't I think of this earlier. Just get some scrap metal and make a vaguely cage-shape out of it.

If we pick her up whilst flying, she can't electrocute use, unless of course she can produce ionized particulate.

That'd bypass the lack of conductive avenues in the air.

“Buzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz…” You rev up the sound of – what you assume is kinda the sound of, at least – an electrical generator chugging along into activity. “…zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz…”

“You won’t.” She insists, stubbornly, her grip tightening.

“…zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz…” You allow a brief flicker of static to play along your fingertips, and suddenly Layla’s apparently not so sure, because she’s off you in a flash. You bolt to your feet before she can reconsider, and pull… a face. Some kind of grin possibly, or a contortion somewhere in that area – a sort of twisted, evil approximation, fuelled by the special kind of mirth that can only by mined from the detriment of others.

“This moron.” You point a pair of finger-guns in Layla direction. “Truly hilarious.”

She glares daggers.

“Anyway, mind taking her home?” Shifting your tone back to normal, and hopefully your expression to, you turn to Gaby. Kinda good that it turned out this way, really – you know Gaby’d rather be hanging out with Layla than doing any of this stuff.

“Of course.” She beams down at Layla. Yep, that put some chipper in her step. “Want to ride on my back?”

Layla’s decision is a split-second one. “Yeeeeeep! Your fur is super soft.”

“Oh, um, well…” Gaby seems to wrestle with the idea of that being a compliment for a second, before finally giving in. “…Thank you, Layla.”

They head out into the snow, leaving you to your hunt.

Lucas next. You don’t really get his powers but you suspect that they give him a big ole’ speed advantage.

You take a step toward the street and feel your legs wobble tenuously underneath you, a sudden, sickly sort of weight settling in your stomach, seeming to pitch you just very slightly askew. You didn’t realize how tired you were till you stopped.

Maybe you should take a brief rest. Or not. You don’t know how long you can keep this up, but you don’t know how much ground the others have put between you either.

>>34467170
It's kind of stupid, though.

JJ does the "running" thing with that enchanced mutie strength he has, and already did some Jump Good before; no idea why he can't use that strength to run a bit faster.

>>34467170
You can't become stronger without becoming faster though.
If you hit harder, that means you also hit faster.

>>34467252
He can though, just like Captain America, Hulk, Spiderman and anybody else with any degree of enhanced strenght can.

>>34467170
Not that anon, but I recall Str giving a bonus to speed (and jumping capability as well) because of lower body strength and Agility has mostly been acrobatic maneuvering or manual dexterity (for what we've used it for).
And we currently have Longshot's level of agility and I just downloaded a comic of his to see what that actually means, as every wiki has said "He's got agility, yep. Hollow bones an' shit".

>>34467262
Not true. That boils down to a lot of physics stuff with mass and weight and so forth. Speed is just one factor you can increase, but lets not go there.

>>34467251

He said he'd sleep tomorrow, so I guess double issue, maybe.

>>34467262
>If you hit harder, that means you also hit faster.
No it doesn't.

Speed and force are not the same thing. A professional boxer could punch someone with the same speed as a 90 lb professional gymnast punching someone. The Boxer hits harder because he's putting more force into it.

>>34467306
Crusty has said in the past that Strength only gives a very slight increase to speed. They're supposed to be different things.
