i've made the offer before, but considering there are a few names on this network i don't recognize, i figure it doesn't hurt to make it again.

if you don't know what to do with your new ability, or you can't seem to figure out what it is, i'll help you. most people prefer one on one these days, but we can make it a group effort if there's a lot of demand. just try not to take anybody out.

and if there's something you need that you can't buy in a shop, i can try and make it for you. i don't charge. i just ask that you find me the pieces, and if it's something i haven't made before, bring me the blueprint. i can usually figure it out.

also: if we have any chemists in the house, i could use a hand figuring out a dendrotoxin from fitz's notes. i've managed to replicate the icer pistols we used back home, but i can't get the cartridges right. if we're going out in the world, it might be nice to have a non-lethal option at our disposal.

it sounds terrifying, actually. have you actually used it on anyone?

[heliophilous]

not really.

i'd rather not accidentally touch someone and suddenly know their greatest fear.

[evite]

you think it'd be easier if you already knew their greatest fears?

[ why does she constantly volunteer for this shit ]

[heliophilous]

i'm not gonna practice on you.

( he knows what you're trying to do and he's not gonna let it happen. )

[evite]

why not? you have a better way to learn to control it?

[heliophilous]

i can control it just fine by not using it.

[evite]

so what happens when you accidentally touch someone and your repressed power gets the better of you? you're just going to apologize and walk away?

[ sounds faaake ]

[heliophilous]

it won't get the better of me.

and i barely know you. i don't want to know your greatest fears.

[evite]

i've heard that before
and why would you want to know the greatest fears of someone you do know well? you'd have to see them all the time, you'd think about it. no, you need a third party. someone who doesn't give a shit about anyone knowing their fears.

[heliophilous]

i'm not practicing on you.

stop trying to persuade me.

[evite]

suit yourself. but i'd suggest finding someone to practice on.
doesn't have to be somebody you like.

[heliophilous]

or i could just not do that.
i don't want to freak anyone out.

[evite]

we're all freaks here. but there's a whole world out there of people who could probably use a little fear of god put in them.
just a thought.

[heliophilous]

i'll think about it.
we'll see.
