deep question here

concept: you have a superpower if you didn't already have one. some of you guys do, some of you don't, whatever. you have a new one. who cares about the logistics

it's any power you want. what is that power what's it do

the trick is that it has one drawback so i guess make that up too

example: i would command a hoard of snakes to do my bidding
drawback: i can no longer chew food i must swallow my food whole

I imagine I'll have a hard time saying that aloud
but it's very nice to speak with you.
I hope we'll run into each other again some time!

[teaserving]

hang on it'll be easier of i turn this to audio huh

[A moment later, his voice comes through.]

It's Abbacchio. It's Italian. I mean, if you know what Italy is.

What's your name?

[foxtouched]

[ That's nice of him, and now that she can hear him- ah, he has a nice voice. Her own is soft, obviously feminine and her speech polite. ]

I do not, but I assume it's your land. My apologies for being rude and not introducing myself sooner.

[ There's a pause- she probably bowed. ]

I am called Kitsuno, first daughter of the lords of Sawa. It is a pleasure to speak with you, Master Abbacchio.

[ She says his name slowly, but sounds it right! ]

I hope that was alright. You have a very interesting name.

[teaserving]

Hey, it's whatever. Uh.

You don't have to add "master". That sounds way too formal for a guy like me. But you got it right otherwise.

[foxtouched]

My apologies... it's a habit I have yet to be rid of. It is rare to address a person without honorifics, where I come from.

I've found not many like it, here, though.

[teaserving]

I guess it just makes me sound way more important than the truth. So. Don't do that unless someone's earned it.

[foxtouched]

I'm sure you're still very valuable in the eyes of those that care for you.

May I ask what it is you do, M.. [ Darn. ]... then?

[ She's too polite to use his name so easily for now. ]

[teaserving]

I feel bad for them, then.

Eh, kind of a bodyguard of sorts. [kind of??]

[foxtouched]

Why would you say that? Being a bodyguard sounds like a very honorable position.

My bodyguards and retainers are very dear to me, back home.

[teaserving]

It's really not that glamorous for the kind of people I work for. I can't really say much more than that.

Probably doesn't really matter either way, in retrospect, but I should probably be careful about what I say.
