hi. [...] given the whole "we're partners and we've got a right to know what stuff's going on with each other" thing there's a couple things i reckon i oughta tell you. one of em's gonna get your concerned face going and idk if i can deal with that right now, like from the getgo. so i wanna tell you here first and you can think about whatever and then if you REALLY want to frown all thoughtfully at me after i'll let you.

but if that's cool with you, idk which to start with so choose like... past or future. pretend we're playing with a cootie catcher idk

Okay.

Past.

~~oh but wouldn't you rather settle in with fu~~ ~~ease into th~~ ~~ain't it a lil early to CHOOSE your concerned face~~

[...]

p a s t past

[...] when i ran off fishing a couple months back cause evan left me the box of [...] chuck [...] stuff, my powers did a new thing and i've gotta report it. [...] GONNA. i just dk how they're gonna make me prove it n i'm not really keen to find out

What’s the worst possible way they could make you prove it? (Indulge my inner pessimist.)

last time i took out a tamarack that must've been close to its 100th bday. so whatever they'd do, it'd have to involve like [...] that kind of treatment

Not […] ideal. You don’t think they’d see the logic of believing your previous first-hand experience instead of having to drain something that badly?

idk???

The higher ups have never forced me to test out the radiation part of my powers outside of very controlled conditions, if that’s any comfort.

cept that raising the dead sounds like the kind of ✨controlled conditions✨ they'd get hard for.

Okay, so that’s the very worst case scenario.

that's THE scenario. it's what i did, pulled a [...] frankenstein or whatever on what was supposed be my dinner

Well. Shit.

[...] yeah. i couldn't really control the ~~stream~~ flow after that storm. when our powers were going all fucked. [...] it was all for nothing too cause i was halfway through cleaning the fish, it's not like it got to go home with a new lease on life n a boatload of new trauma. it just died again.

And you pulled the life force from a tree?

everything it had

Fuck. Sorry. I get why you haven’t told them yet.

[…] Thought exercise. Do you have to?

yeah. i mean they might just take my account of everything n go "cool" but if they don't i'm gonna have to do some shit i [...] never wanna do ~~agai~~

but it's the rules. hell it's the law

Yeah.

So what’s behind door number future?

i get caught not reporting it for long enough maybe they'll fire me or something idk.

f u t u r e future's that i director dr sutherland and me've got a meeting soon. to see if she'll let me transfer

Edited (link bc i can never remember which director is which division gvbskjtgnjknr) 2023-09-09 15:59 (UTC)

To medical? As secondary or primary?

2nd, do i LOOK like a brain surgeon to you?????

I mean I think powers of healing could lead to an honorary MD.

babe i couldn't do the white coat, my ass deserves to be appreciated too much. it'd be more for EMT stuff though with a lil powers sprinkled on but only when i decide to cause IRIS ain't got any right to tell me when to heal somebody by fuckin something else up and it's staying that way

Good. Agree, on all counts.

[...] cootie catcher's inside says "so that's all my stuff going on"
