73. Always a Ranger?

[handy_psychic]

I just realized that I'm the only Ranger who doesn't get to actually be one while this is going on.

But that's okay, 'cause Twin-chan is teaching me how to use his powers instead. And apparently this means falling on my face on occasion... and generating a rabbit made out of fire.

Ah, Scavengers, I know a lot of you probably won't be able to come to work as often as normal 'til this is over, and that's okay, since I can't be down in the Yard as much myself anyway! But mind you work extra hard when you come back~ ♥

Generating a rabbit out of fire? Sounds like it's worth falling over a few times to me!

[handy-psychic.livejournal.com]

I'm still not very good at it, but it's awesome!

[feathered-earth.livejournal.com]

Well, practice makes perfect! Can you do any other animals?

[handy-psychic.livejournal.com]

Hmm, not yet. I'm not sure if I even can, but I'll keep trying!

[...His boss really seems to enjoy drawing those little hearts in his journal]

I'll be certain to work harder to make up for my lost time.

[handy-psychic.livejournal.com]

I'll be working extra-hard, too!

Head Scavenger Bridge, if I may ask... but how will the ability to "generate a rabbit made out of fire" be helpful in future missions?

[handy-psychic.livejournal.com]

Well, ah-

... Let me get back to you on that.

[gene-driver.livejournal.com]

Noted, sir.

[desig-survivor.livejournal.com]

Understood.

[And after a minute, wait, Rogue remembers that he's usually a bit more verbose. It's important to act like nothing major's happened.]

Rabbit made of fire? That sounds strange. [even if he's seen rabbits before and was told what they are, there's always a disconnect with name and word, for him.]

[handy-psychic.livejournal.com]

Tell me about it. I guess it's 'cause Rabbit is the one teaching me!

[desig-survivor.livejournal.com]

I'd imagine that it would be difficult to shape the hair and eyes, sir, but I guess it doesn't have to act like normal fire.

[handy-psychic.livejournal.com]

Hmm, it really doesn't. Rabbit's looks a lot cooler than mine- his forms a dragon.

[redrobinhood.livejournal.com]

Sounds like you're having fun though.

[handy-psychic.livejournal.com]

Loads~ ♥

[redhead-rabbit.livejournal.com]

Still not entirely sure why it came out as a rabbit.....

We gotta getcha to get that thing to run around on command, yeah.

[handy-psychic.livejournal.com]

Probably 'cause you're my teacher. Maybe.

[redhead-rabbit.livejournal.com]

Works for me!

Ack, I missed this.

[live_ringer]

Good to know we're off the hook for missing work. I think it'd be a bit difficult to make it down, considering I've got a regular entourage in tow.

Rabbits of fire, hm? Sounds flashy. Maybe you can do a little demonstration when we're all back on a regular schedule.

[handy-psychic.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I can't get very far from Rabbit, and I can't expect him to stay down here with me all day, so I figured it wouldn't be fair to expect everyone else to drag whoever they're stuck with now.

I hope so~ ♥ I like learning new powers.

[live_ringer]

Learning new powers is a regular thing for you, then?

[handy-psychic.livejournal.com]

Well- it doesn't happen too often. So far the only powers I have are my psychic powers and then being able to transform into my Spandex suit.

[live_ringer]

I'd heard a bit about the psychic powers because of hearsay around the yard. The instant-spandex is a bit of a new one, though.

[handy-psychic.livejournal.com]

I don't get an excuse to use it all that often, but Sky and I had the same ability in our memories! Except I had a green suit instead of a blue one...

[live_ringer]

Huh. So what's that whole psychic thing like? What do you read from it, anyway?

[handy-psychic.livejournal.com]

Well, my powers are channelled through my hands, which is why I have to wear gloves all the time- otherwise I wouldn't be able to function. I can see and read auras around people and things, and if I touch someone or something I can see where they've been recently. Things like that.

[live_ringer]

Interesting. And here I'd thought the gloves were to protect your hands when digging around in the junk piles.

[Note to self: don't shake hands with the boss when he's gloveless.]

[handy-psychic.livejournal.com]

Nah, though they are helpful with that, come to think of it...
