So now that I've gotten the hang of this and all that, I guess I have a few questions.

Do teens get an allowance, or do I need to get a weekend job? Is there a place somewhere around here that's... durable, I guess, for power use? Also, if anyone needs tutoring before or during school, think we could set something up for that? I'm crap at ethics, and if this is going to transfer over to home if/when I go back, I'd love to not fail.

	I'm one year too-much-old to be considered one of the 18 and under crowd, so I don't know about the allowance part. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ But if you wanted to get a weekend job, the arcade I work at is pretty friggin' chill and isn't ever really that busy. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Lucky you. I wish credits for saving the world (sort of) counted against class. But an arcade sounds cool, that'd be an okay job. Do they need like references or stuff? Can I just show up and beg for a job? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	My sort of saving the world days came much too late to count as credit, but at this point, I would be happy if anything I did counted as credit. You can just show up and beg! I kind of just walked in, and said: "Hey, can we say I work here now?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	My big guy Colossus would totally say something about heroism being it's own reward or something, but I totally get it. Even if it's just a discount at Kinkos. I respect that work ethic, let's see if it works twice? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pinkmerc 2019-08-22 09:17 pm UTC (link)
	Colossus. Big shiny steel guy!?! It'll definitely work twice. Pretty sure you could just roll up into the joint with me this weekend and the boss will just start paying ya. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	detonations 2019-08-22 09:22 pm UTC (link)
	That's the one. I'm more than happy to test that theory. I've been told I should engage more in science, that sounds like a good experiment. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	F!@#KIN' LOVE THAT GUY! Not that I've ever met him. But f!@#kin' love that shiny guy. Perf! We'll perform our little experiment this weekend then! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	~~Why not just~~ Yeah. He's pretty cool, I guess. For an adult. Great! I'm Ellie, by the way, since we're about to be co-workers. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pinkmerc 2019-08-22 09:39 pm UTC (link)
	I just really love me some X-Men. Heck yes, co-workers. That sounds so adult. I am adult. I am also Gwen. Gwen Poole. Formally Gwenpool. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	detonations 2019-08-22 09:46 pm UTC (link)
	I mean, I guess the support is good? Most people get annoyed at us. I'm mostly an adult, I save the world, that's an adult job. Gwenpool? Like Deadpool? Do you know Wade? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Whoa. Hold the fracking phone. "Us"!?!

That is very adult. I try to do the whole saving thing, but sometimes f!@k it up.

Aaaahh Wade. Met him once while playing a LARP game (long story). Told him he talked too much, may have said he had always been too 'LOL meme' for my tastes. He literally kicked my a$$ but then we made up, kicked a$$ together, and escaped the death trap.

He's alright I guess. My suit was so much better than his though, pantless is definitely the way to go.

Um, yeah. I'm an X-Man ~~trainee~~.

Another Colossus top tip: sometimes, things go wrong, the important thing is that you tried to do the right thing.

He does talk too much, right? It's constant. My girlfriend thinks he's funny, but it just grates after a while. I'm definitely sure I wouldn't want him in a pantsless suit though. You're way better trademarking that yourself.

	Holy freakin' shirt! I'm gonna be working with X-Man! Colossus is too pure for this world. ~~I've got to remember this tip.~~ It most definitely grates. Like nails on a flippn' chalkboard. He couldn't pull off the no pants look. Although, when I fought him he was shirtless and that's an awful image that won't leave my brain. Stupid brain. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	detonations 2019-08-23 11:48 am UTC (link)
	Oh, wow, yeah. Hi. He kinda is yeah, he's great. Yeah, he doesn't suck though, I guess that's important. I watched him cut off his own hand one time, that was gross as all ~~hell~~ heck. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pinkmerc 2019-08-23 01:08 pm UTC (link)
	Nah, he doesn't suck. He's alright. ~~Maybe I should bite the bullet and read more of his stuff.~~ Did you have to watch it grow back!?! I'll never get used to it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	detonations 2019-08-28 08:42 am UTC (link)
	Thankfully, no. He was gone by that time, but seeing a guy take kill shots and survive will never not be weird. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	freemanspeaks 2019-08-22 10:01 pm UTC (link)
	Our clothes and food and games and toys and stuff are free, but no real spending money. You can ask the entity for things though. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	detonations 2019-08-22 10:16 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, I'd feel weird asking the entity to give me money to get my nose pierced again or something. But hey, I think I'm getting a job at the arcade, so that'd be cool. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	freemanspeaks 2019-08-23 11:41 am UTC (link)
	Again? How many nose piercings do you have? Do they hurt? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	detonations 2019-08-23 11:45 am UTC (link)
	I have my septum pierced, it was a little sore at first, but it stops. I have seven piercings in my left ear and four in my right though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	freemanspeaks 2019-08-23 11:51 am UTC (link)
	That is super cool! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	detonations 2019-08-23 12:01 pm UTC (link)
	You wanna come with me when I get my nose done? You can't get anything, you're a bit too young, but you can see what the place is like? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	freemanspeaks 2019-08-23 12:15 pm UTC (link)
	Really? Yes, please! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	detonations 2019-08-23 12:21 pm UTC (link)
	Cool. Let me work a few shifts at the arcade, and I'll tell you when I'm going. And hey, maybe you and some of the others can come hang out at the arcade on the weekends for fun. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	theghostking 2019-08-23 03:23 am UTC (link)
	~~if we do~~ i thought i saw someone talking about a fight club. maybe its in the works? a durable place i mean. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	detonations 2019-08-23 11:46 am UTC (link)
	Maybe, yeah. I'll have to check around. I just don't want to break or hurt anyone or anything. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	theghostking 2019-08-23 04:54 pm UTC (link)
	makes sense. lots of others dont seem to care as much. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	detonations 2019-08-24 02:27 pm UTC (link)
	I sort of blow up, I really think that needs a proper area if I have to do it for whatever reason. Like a junk yard. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ellie theghostking 2019-08-24 05:39 pm UTC (link)
	what kind of blowing up? how strong/powerful? i can make shields of darkness if you cant find a place to practice. i cant make light but i can make them surround people & things & theyre pretty durable. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nico detonations 2019-08-28 08:44 am UTC (link)
	It depends really. If I store too much energy I disperse it as a build up of explosive power. I can make it stronger or not with concentration. So it'd be like a shield of darkness around something? As in, you could protect yourself from backlash? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ellie theghostking 2019-08-31 04:06 pm UTC (link)
	so like a bomb. yeah. i dont know how long they last or just how durable they are. ive got skill with my abilities but i also havent used much of them lately. ~~i dont know if theres a limit other then my own stam~~ so im rusty. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nico detonations 2019-09-02 03:28 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, pretty much like that. Maybe we can work it out in increments then. I think if I detonate a few times a week I don't need to worry about building up too much energy. But I've not gone that long since getting my powers without using them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ellie theghostking 2019-09-02 05:52 pm UTC (link)
	increments work. for smaller ~~detonash~~ denotations how strong are they? or the ~~raide~~ radius? i can start ~~practising~~ ~~practusing~~ working on sheilds of diferen sizes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nico detonations 2019-09-02 06:04 pm UTC (link)
	About as strong as a car explosion? I guess that's not overly helpful. A stick of dynamite? I can keep it down to about a 25 foot radius. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ellie theghostking 2019-09-02 06:10 pm UTC (link)
	i can work with that. whats the biggest its gotten? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nico detonations 2019-09-02 06:19 pm UTC (link)
	Probably the size of a junkyard? that was mostly chain reactions, but I blew up a aircraft carrier. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ellie theghostking 2019-09-02 08:00 pm UTC (link)
	really? wow. thats kinda crazy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nico detonations 2019-09-03 08:32 am UTC (link)
	I burned myself out that time, it was all my energy at once, but I can push it to that. Of course, I also pass out afterwards. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	jobs? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	detonations 2019-08-24 02:28 pm UTC (link)
	Probably not something you gotta worry about. Still think that falls under child labour. But I'd feel weird asking an entity for money to poke a new hole in my face. (Reply to this) (Parent)
