[Lightning can make him forget anything! Tom's a lot like his dad: he'll drink to numb the pain, but his tolerance for alcohol's ridiculously high... therefore, it takes about three or four bottles for him to actually act drunk.] Really?
Huh. Basically... I'm a metahuman. People back home've shortened it to "meta." It's our word for anyone with superpowers. [this part, he knows he's explained, but a refresher never hurt.] I know I said Dad wasn't a meta... but Mom was.
She had my powers, so I inherited 'em without knowing it. Metas aren't exactly liked in my world--no, wait, I take it back, it depends. Some, like Superman, are well-loved, while others can't decide how they feel about Batman. You like him one week, then hate 'im the next... it's kinda wishy-washy.
Point is, Cyclone and I were metas on the same superhero team. So we used to spar and accidentally break holes in the walls or ceilings in the process. [... it's okay if Light doesn't speak; Tom does all the talking for them. Guess he missed his motormouth friend Cyclone more than he thought.]
take your time sis ♥
