So, I know there's a lot going on right now which seems like the perfect time to throw more fuel on the fire.

First off, I hope everyone's doing okay after what happened. I haven't heard about casualties or anything so hope everyone's okay.

Now, getting to the reason why I'm here, some of you may have heard about my hopes to set up a soup kitchen slash safe place for the residents of New Amsterdam. We're oftentimes well protected when things happen but a lot of them are not. They lose their homes, their livelihoods, and sometimes more when things like this happen.

The purpose of this communication is for a few reasons:

1. ideas and suggestions on how to raise the money that might be needed for this
2. ideas on what else might be needed for a place like this
3. possible volunteers to help build, gather resources, and then staff this when it gets off the ground
4. possible problems that I might not be seeing

I'm not a fighter. You guys have that covered. This is more my forte here and it's a way I can help for what I hope is a longer period of time than just being nomadic and going from place to place. Thanks for any input you have.

I know a few telepaths. Not a fan. I'm sure it can be used for good things but they used it to cause all kinds of trouble.

He's kind of a special type of magic user. They're rare. It caused some awkwardness in the start for sure because like, I can barely control my rambling when I talk out loud. I think so much. So so so much. Loudly, apparently. He can also teleport, usually.

Huh. I don't know if I'd want to hear thoughts but I can't deny that it'd be useful, you know. To know what someone's thinking and stay one step ahead of them.

I think he'd probably say it was a curse more than a plus, although the teleporting at least is cool! And he had normal magic on top of that. Some people have all the luck.

I used to be able to absorb and manipulate photons. Fancy way of saying I could shoot light and heat from my hands.
