[He can do this. Who cares if people think he's weird for this? He has people who don't think that, too. He turns on the video and smiles a tiny bit, before speaking.]

So I'm just wondering... a couple of things, really. First of all, how many people are here who are under the age of twenty? It feels like that's a lot of people here - more than you'd usually see in any kind of population. Has anyone tracked that kind of stuff?

And second...

[Here we go.]

How many people had what people might call... powers or abilities or magic at home? Like, stuff that most people can't do but you can do? I'm not counting if you come from some kind of world where magic is common, but where it's rare and people would stare at you for doing it, that's what I mean.

[... He's kind of run out of steam.]

Th... that's what I was wondering. Let me know. I'm not trying to like... track people down or something. I'm just curious.

[He flicks the video off and goes to get a drink of water. That was kind of scary.]

Yeah, I do. We do. Me and my friends, I mean. We've been fighting them for a few years.

Re: Video

Have you made any kind of headway?

Video

[wing_attack]

We've held them off, at least. Which I'd count as some kind of progress since it's just six of us.

Re: Video

[nasa_dreams]

Yeah, I know that feeling.

Video

[wing_attack]

Sucks, doesn't it?

Re: Video

[nasa_dreams]

Don't I know it. I mean, I've got my two best friends to help, but they don't have powers....

Video

[wing_attack]

So it's mostly on you... well, at least you've got some help. If nothing else friends are good to lean on.

Re: Video

[nasa_dreams]

Yeah, that's true.

Video

[wing_attack]

Are either of them here?

Re: Video

[nasa_dreams]

No, they're not.

Video

[wing_attack]

Sorry. That sucks. But... at least you can make some more friends here?

Re: Video

[nasa_dreams]

Yeah, that's true. How about you?

Video

[wing_attack]

No one I know from home is here. I wish they were - it's a lot safer here.

Re: Video

[nasa_dreams]

True, I guess. But it can get boring sometimes....

Video

[wing_attack]

Boring is better than "running for your life", though. Usually.

Re: Video

[nasa_dreams]

Well, that's a good point. I guess I'm just used to beating up ghosts daily now.

Video

[wing_attack]

And I'm used to beating up aliens, but I still prefer this over that.

Re: Video

[nasa_dreams]

To each his own, I guess.
