The Station is rather a mess but it seems there is rather a lot to be accounted for. Items of value that you might wish to have, for example, that I can procure. That or items of a metal nature - ask and you might receive. All I would like in return is a feather.

( LOCKED TO MORGANA )

I have something we must talk about, if you've time. Let me know.

Are we talking tapping into electromagnetic fields or using magnets on refrigerators? Only one of them's impressive.

[metalica]

The former, of course.

[marred]

Bummer. Magnets would've been more impressive. Especially the ones you can use to spell out your name.

How far did you manage?

[metalica]

Quite high into the sky. I dare not go too far; I'm unsure on the gravity of this place yet. So much to learn and so little time.

Don't think one of my flying pals is too keen on getting too close to any of the 'spheres up there, either. Don't blame you for not trusting this untrustworthy shithole. I'm tempted to go a little higher than usual, but I don't even trust the clouds in this world.

The gravitational pulls feels as similar to Earth, as far as I can tell, but I would risk nothing in an unfamiliar place. That, in itself, is foolishness.

I say let someone else be foolish.

But how can you even do half of this shit?

Mutation.

[ it takes him a long moment to even recall what he's read in books out of boredom, the sciencey ones he'd stolen in a bid to put himself to sleep. ]

Your genes are so fucked you can do shit with metal?

[ that makes erik laugh. that is, more than anything, one way to put things. ]

Something like that.

Why metal?

[metalica]

My power lies in that. Magnetism. Metal falls under the pulse of a magnetic charge, doesn't it?

[ look, even he doesn't. really have any idea. it's just metal. :C ]

[marred]

No clue. Kind of fell asleep during that class at camp.

Got a thing for forges? Could be a son of Hephaestus and just not know it. ;)

[ he's a good father, he swears ... ]

[metalica]

I have never entertained the notion, no. I find guns far more worthwhile.

text »

[marred]

Occasionally more effective than swords. I'd still personally recommend going to a forge. Hephaestus' stuff is just priceless.

How'd you get your mutation? Mutated parent?

[metalica]

I haven't had the pleasure of meeting him.

No. My parents were human.

[marred]

Top ten gods I'd highly recommend you meet before you cark it.

Big fan of Maybelline? It doesn't sound like something you can be born with if neither parent carries a mutated metallic or magnetic or whatever in Hades' name it is gene.

God abandoned me a long time ago. I have no need for them anymore.

It's a genetic mutation. Being born with auburn hair, blue eyes - mutations. Mine is simply a little superior.
