Karl, Lucas, & Stephanie
"Whoa, you can turn into metal? And you..." he looked down at Steph, not saying 'turn into bees' out loud. Karl threw up his free hand. "Man, I don't turn into anything! Well, I guess a one-time deal." he admitted with a shrug. Still.
As Lucas continued to talk Karl looked at him more skeptically, his body language becoming more closed off. Who did this guy think he was? Earlier annoyances resurfaced. So, not just a misunderstanding, rather how this guy was. "OK let me see if I have this straight. You want to know if we are either, to use your categories, hiding - which we can't be because we decided to take you up on your invitation - selfish bastards, or dangerous? And you say you have plans of your own and sought me out instead of hiding, so you must be one of the last two. Where the hell do you get off?"
Karl gently slipped out of Steph's embrace. "Have you seen the world? I'm not sure exactly how to do it, but now that you mention it yeah it could use some changing I think. I didn't have the option to hide, at least without running, and even that probably wouldn't work long term. But even if I had the option I would like to think I wouldn't. Again, not entirely sure just how yet, I've only had this for a couple days now, but I think it should be used. We can find ways to help people, we can do things others can't. And she" he pointed over to Stephanie "is going to change the world, and would have even without this happening. So I guess maybe we're dangerous. But so's anyone who tries to do anything worthwhile. If you somehow get blessed with abilities, advantages like these and don't try..." Karl trailed off, shaking his head.
