[ Although the other day was far from as traumatic as the last inmate influx, it left Reid a little pensive. Made him think of extreme aggressors, of 50 000 chess games, of expecting different outcomes in a game that would only end with check mate, but unlike a few years ago this is not a depressive thought. Instead, it makes him crave interaction and so he hits up the network. ]

Hey, guys. I was wondering... there's quite a few of us here that know how to play chess. How would you feel about an impromptu tournament? Nothing fancy, just... I don't know, anyone who's interested could drop by the library and we'll set up a few games. Bring a board, if you got one.

[ A bit of an awkward smile and then he cuts the feed. ]

(( OOC: MINGLE-STYLE! Email notifs are off, so thread to your hearts content! Reid will have a video response thread here and an action response thread here for your Reid-y needs! ))

	When I do what? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Everything? I meant the kiss though. At the risk of sounding like I'm 5? It makes me feel safe. [And loved.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2013-10-21 03:29 pm UTC (link)
	Then I'll make sure to do it more often. [ Like right now. She's cute when she's letting the vulnerability shine through a little. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She smiles at the light touch of his lips.] You're going to spoil me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2013-10-21 03:36 pm UTC (link)
	Someone should. Might as well be me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2013-10-21 04:02 pm UTC (link)
	You're definitely my first choice for the role. My first choice for a lot of things. [To have and to hold?] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2013-10-21 04:26 pm UTC (link)
	[ Oh, we're going down that ~~aisle~~ path again? ] You're mine too, you know. For almost everything. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[You didn't think it would just never be on her mind again, did you?] I do now. [Little smile.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2013-10-22 09:36 am UTC (link)
	[ Strangely enough, he minds the thought less and less. Maybe they should do something with this. Soon. Relatively soon. ] Do you have any idea how much I love you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2013-10-23 12:57 am UTC (link)
	[It's a nice idea right now. A really, really nice idea. She's not really ready to make it real though. But maybe relatively soon?] Is it this much? [She holds her hands about a foot apart.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2013-10-23 03:40 pm UTC (link)
	[ Maybe relatively soon. Maybe a small little step in that direction. It doesn't have to be huge. It can just be a nod. A nudge. ] No, no, no... [ The most serious, he carefully grabs her hands and widens the gap between them as far as he can without actually bringing pain into the equation. ] This is more like it.

	Too bad we don't have amazing stretching abilities. [She'll just thread her fingers with his.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Cutie. ] Think we can ask the Wardens for new superpowers? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2013-10-27 05:41 pm UTC (link)
	Definitely. We probably just need a few more points. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2013-10-27 05:49 pm UTC (link)
	Is stretchiness the thing to ask for, in that case? I mean, we should pick something really good while we're at it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2013-10-27 05:51 pm UTC (link)
	Wow, I'm so telling all the stretchy people I know that you just said that. What would you get though? What's "really good?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2013-10-27 06:11 pm UTC (link)
	Hey, I didn't say stretchy wasn't good! Just that we should think this through before committing. [ That sure is a word. ] Your power is pretty good. Versatile. Useful. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2013-10-27 06:15 pm UTC (link)
	See, I knew it. Only "pretty good." I want to hear about these "really goods." [Definitely amused.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2013-10-27 06:17 pm UTC (link)
	Hey, you're the expert here. What would you recommend? [ Truth be told he'd probably pick hers, or something close to it. Something that would guarantee that Tyki could never touch him again. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2013-10-27 06:24 pm UTC (link)
	Telekinesis has some perks. I wouldn't want the telepathy though. Magnetism is pretty impressive too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2013-10-27 06:41 pm UTC (link)
	Telepathy seems... pretty scary, actually. And unethical. [ Mostly scary. Voices in your head... wow that would've freaked him the hell out, had he gotten it as a teenager. ] How do you keep yourself from getting stuck to the fridge? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2013-10-27 07:32 pm UTC (link)
	Unethical? Come on, Reid. It's not like they can all control it. How would you like everyone's thoughts pouring into your head if you weren't on guard all the time? [Yeah, no, the fridge thing was cute, but mutant rights!] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2013-10-27 07:33 pm UTC (link)
	...I think you know how I would feel about that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2013-10-27 07:35 pm UTC (link)
	...Yeah... Sorry. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[ He draws a breath, holding it for a moment. Backs up, mentally. This took an unexpected turn but it still feels important to straighten out what he meant by that comment.. ]

I know they can't all control it, but I still feel like there needs to be some sort of... balance. That's a lot of power to have, even if you can control it. There's a lot to consider. I wouldn't want that responsibility.
