You are John James Green, mutant vagrant.

“I’m sorry, but what?”

It’s early(ish) in the morning and as far as anyone can tell you are still living in an abandoned subway station. You have stuff to do today – Agency stuff, Peter stuff, stuff stuff – and kinda intended on heading out, but there’s a bunch of idiots in your decrepit moist lair and you think Layla just said they stole a restaurant.

“They stole a”–

Kiden cuts Layla off. “We cleaned out one of Negative’s places. At least, like, the guy who owns it works for him.”

Oh. That’s… less stupid.

“…Did anyone see you?”

Jubilee shrugs. “Dunno. We tagged the place up, though, made it look like it was the Owl’s guys.” She points at Susie over her noodles. “That was her idea.”

Susie, who up until now appeared unconcerned with the idea of actually engaging in anything like conversation, glances up from the half-eaten box of fried rice nestled between her knees, her expression seeming to almost convey a certain exasperation at the sound of her own name.

“We were gonna hit another place tonight.” She says, stabbing absently at her food. “You got the magic phone that tells everyone where all this stuff is, so…”

“Also, Jono said we couldn’t go unless we found someone with big powers.” Adds Jubilee, grinning hopefully.

“I guess all this…” You cast your vision over the teetering pile of takeout boxes, eyes narrow. “…was meant to be some kind of bribe?”

You can’t say it isn’t working a little. You haven’t eaten for real takeout in… in some time. You don’t think it really counts when you find it in the garbage – you didn’t take that out, after all. It was thrown out. Because everyone else is too good for it.

“No. No, of course not.” Says Jubilee, doing her best to sound offended. Which is much harder when your mouth is full of sweet & sour chicken. “We’re, y’know, sharing the love. An’ stuff.”

Indeed.

You sigh heavily. Some muggas always gotta be tryin’a ice skate uphill.

...You can never remember where you first heard that line.

“Look, we’ll… talk about this later…” You turn at the sound of Laura emerging from your tent, her hands smoothing down the hem of her sweater. You feel a small, silly smile tug at your cheeks. “I’m kinda busy right now.”

“Ick.” Spits Layla, her eyes narrowed. “Romance stuff.”

“Yes, that’s right.” You confirm. “Feel free to hate, gremlin.”

It only makes your game stronger.

That said, you were actually gonna visit Lucas first.

>[X] Head to the Agency.

Well, you promised. Or you made some vague statement or something.

You slip on your shades, push back your horns, and head out. As you make your way up the frosted steps leading out into the Scar, Laura notices the tiny, furtive smile on your face (possibly the wandering eyes, too), and her head jerks to one side questioningly.

“You really do look great in that.” You explain, a tiny blush warming your cheeks as you gesture toward her attire.

She looks down, almost disbelievingly, and then focuses her eyes straight ahead.

“You… I also enjoy your…” Her eyes turn on you, seeming to grasp for something to hold on to. “…Your hair is very… soft?” She decides, finally, a tentative undertone to her voice, as if she’s expecting someone to pop out from under one of the piles of rubble and explain why that was the wrong answer.

“Huh.” You glance up, pinching a strand of dirty blonde hair. You always thought it was kinda messy and coarse.
>>
>(2/2)

The two of you make your way across the northern shoulder of Queens, eventually coming to a stop outside the Agency.

>Present Time: 12:45

It doesn’t take long for Nico to answer the door – she looks at you with these big, raised eyebrows, like she’s in on something you should know about.

Okay.

You head up into the main office, to find Lucas sitting up on the couch, nursing a steaming mug of coffee – no, wait, hot chocolate – and decidedly lucid for someone with a concussion. He glances up at you, a note of surprise evident on his face, and you’re pretty certain there should be a huge-ass bruise all over one side of his face... but there isn’t. The gnarled, black-blue tissue has flattened out completely, leaving not even the slightest trace of its presence.

“Hey.” He mumbles, sipping at his drink.

You hear the seat in the work-designated half of the room swivel around.

“Dude where’s your bruise?”

You know it was there. And bruises don’t just get up and walk away, so clearly, shenanigans are afoot.

Not that you aren’t pleased or whatever.

He laughs weakly and taps at his face, almost as though expecting it to suddenly be there again.

“…Dunno. Um, she”– He nods toward the other half of the room, where a rather tired Phantom is looking up from her computer, her mask no doubt hiding a set of dark bags under her eyes. –“said I was much worse when you guys dragged me in.” Pausing, he glances down at his coffee, looking a little sheepish. “Thanks, by the way.”

>Your relationship with LUCAS BISHOP has increased!

“No prob, man, it wasn’t…” You were going to say it wasn’t a big deal, but you find your voice trailing off.

You shoot a mystified stare in the Phantom’s direction, who merely shrugs.

“I have no idea.” She states, moving to switch the monitor in front of her off. “Whatever the cause, it has nothing to do with us.”

“…You didn’t call in a superhero with, like… super… healing… powers?”

She chuckles quietly. “I don’t know a superhero with super healing powers.”

Fair enough.
>>
>>40685451
Making something fuck off is a world away from giving it a belly rub and being friends anon.

“I do know someone with regenerative abilities, however.” She adds, her voice taking on a low, suggestive tone. “Someone who recently bled in his eye.”

Huh, that’s funny, you have regenerative powers and you recently bled in Lucas’ ey–

You cut yourself off with a long, loud gasp, and stare down at the vaguely discolored skin running along your wrist – all that remains of your previous injury.

Holy shit.

“Can… can that…” You look down at Laura. “…does that happen?”

She pauses. “It has been documented. I do not possess that ability, however.”

Holy shit, holy shit –

“Well, this is clearly a recent development.” Notes the Phantom, turning back to her desk and retrieving a sheet of paper from beside her printer. “I had something else to discuss with you, but if you need a little while, feel free to…” She stops for a moment, turning the words over in her head. “…process.”

>[X] No it’s cool, you’re cool.

“No, it’s…” You stare down at your hands. You can feel every slight twist and turn of your blood as it rushes through your veins. “…it’s cool.”

Your blood heals people now. That’s pretty far out, even when measured against dumb blue eye lasers and giant spontaneously-forming claws.

Damn, your blood is kinda valuable now, isn’t it? You wonder if there’s a market for stank-ass mutant healer blood…

There’s apparently a market for stank-ass mutant tumors, after all.

“…Did you really bleed in my eye?” Lucas asks, a little tentatively, sending that particular train of thought off the rails for now.

“Not really the issue at hand.” You grumble back. “But yes, I did, and I’m very sorry.” Wait. Pause. “…Or… not? I dunno, it was an accident.”

“…Okay.”

Shoving your hands back in your pockets, you glance over at the Phantom.
>>
>(2/2)

“Yeah, so…” Healing blood dude. “What did you want to talk to me about?”

She glances down at the sheet of paper in her hands, a brief line of internal questioning seeming to pass through her eyes.

“Well… certain details about the case you brought to my attention”– You notice that she avoids saying ‘your sister’, or ‘your case’, or anything like that. You're not sure whether she's being tactful, or just keeping herself detached somehow. –“didn’t sit particularly well with me, so I did a little more digging.”

A lot, you’d say. She looks tired.

“…Did you know that there’s an apartment in this city that legally belongs to your father?”

Everything lurches forward slightly.

“…What?”

She goes quiet, and extends her arm, offering up the printout pinched between her fingers.

“It’s a small place on the lower end of Staten Island. It’s been his for years.”

The world crawls under you, the feeling retreating from your fingertips.

“But… he’s…”

“I know.” She interjects, almost tactically. “Someone’s been paying for it in his name, though.”

You look down at the sheet of paper. All the words look like squiggles of uncoordinated ink. You can make out a picture – trees settling low against the side of a red brick building – but it’s mostly a whirl of indistinct impressions. Your lungs feel tight.

You feel sick.

You swallow. Throat’s dry.

Suddenly the smell of coffee makes your stomach churn. He liked it darker than this – no milk, all caffeine, black and faintly burnt – but it sears through anyhow, coming from somewhere at the root marrow of memory. For a moment you think you can smell day-old aftershave and febreze and… dew on the windowsill.

Your throat clears itself. You feel like a rusty machine.

“Thank you.” It just comes out. The words feel chopped up and packaged and rolled out on a conveyer belt. “Very much.”

Taking the printout – feels like mist between your fingers – you turn first to Lucas, then Laura.

“Come on, let’s go.”

Looking back, you’ll remember them sharing a brief look, but in the here and now it escapes you. You turn to the Phantom and nod mechanically.

“Good bye.”

You leave.

The street shifts and rolls backward under you. You feel like you’re on one of those things – the things at the airport, right before you get on your plane, the little corridors you can just stand on and the rubber flooring below just carries you along. Except you’re walking the wrong way and the floor’s constantly itching against you, pulling against you, tugging you one step back for every step forward –

“Uh… JJ?”

That’s Lucas’ voice. Eurgh, his breath smells of coffee.

You feel yourself twitch on the inside.

“You… okay, man?”

You turn to him. He looks up at you like you’re something only half-perceived, like art you don’t get.

“Yeah, of course.” You smile. “We were gonna go watch a movie. What kinda thing’re you guys up for?”

>>
>>40687306

Either one of those is pretty tempting. Rank 3 in Optic Force Blasts lets JJ alter the beam's trajectory once in mid-flight, and Rank 3 in Natural Weapons gets him a prehensile tail (and opens up Rank 4, which would allow him to break 100mph in a sprint).

Wings 3 would also be nice, for hands-free flight.
>>
>>40687333

Because Crusty has significantly altered Claws (now called Natural Weaponry), making it much more appealing than it used to be.

Because they're useful. Plus, now that the ability is NatWeap and not Claws, it's even more fucking useful.

We could have a prehensile tail or raptor legs that boost JJ's speed.

I'd honestly prefer JJ to not look like an abomination, honestly. I hope that whenever he finally ascends to his true, perfect, form, we get a base-level JJ (as in how he looked when he began the Quest with minimal signs of mutation) who can pull out the big shit without all these subtle impulses.

Impulses like wanting the wings and horns out, and that hunger that's been fucking us over.

Is JJ still afraid of fire, or how that shit just been dropped?
>>
>>40687545
I don't see the point increasing melee, let alone the worst melee option.

anons want to sink 7 points into something that won't hurt Kimura

wings can at least help get distance
ofb can at least knock here away

anons get married to a concept and spam over it.

agility had it
scream had it
kinesics had it

I should be grateful a pic isn't spammed (that bruce lee pic that one guy kept posting)

He's still got the fire phobia, we just haven't been around a lot of fire lately. Or at least, not right in our faces.

>>40687621

I...don't really get your point here. I wasn't "marketing" anything, I was just discussing the options I'm interested in.

You want a reason? I like it. I like the raptor-lizard-demon aesthetic JJ has going for him, and NW helps with that. The other benefits are just gravy.

Taser hands are neat, but they just aren't that interesting to me, and I don't base all my voting decisions around "will this be able to hurt Kimura?"

there's the rush and the luxuries item but it would undercut their main appeal

>>40688110

JJ has around $2000 and knows the detective agency might be willing to hire people, same for the Tabbycat.

Just get people jobs.

Plus people would be wondering why in the cold, supposedly desolate ruins a bunch of vegetables and fruits are suddenly growing out of nowhere
>>
>>40688120
Not that JJ seems to have too much problem with theft, but cutting out the appeal could be extremely valuable for the Scar after all of this shit dies down. And I think the majority of luxuries have already been looted over the past few weeks/month(s)?

Good luck getting an entire legion of starving mutie teens employed in a single club and a detective agency. Unless the Tabbycat decides to start shooting industrial scale teen orgy videos, there's no way that would work.

>>40688435
The only way to get more than a handful of people jobs at the Phantom or Tabbycat is to have them employed at minimum wage. That won't feed the entire scar. If you want to do that through legitimate and conventional means, we're going to have to find under the table jobs for most of them outside of the two mutie friendly establishments JJs worked for.

The way I see it, our best bet is to have everyone stand outside of home depot with the mexicans and try and find work as day laborers.

I think you're drastically overestimating just how busy they get. In any case they've already got all the staff they need to handle it, they can only afford to hire small numbers of people on top of that. Too few to feed the everyone in the scar.

Thinking two small businesses generate enough profit to feed an entire district is retarded.
