If you were not affected by Time Compression's latest stunt, then disregard this message. I assume you have nothing of interest to offer me.

The remainder of those who have unfortunately been affected, I would like to speak with you, either via message or in person if you so prefer. Particularly, I'm interested in whether or not you've showed a distinct lack of powers beforehand.

Those of you who have had prior abilities can rest easy. I have no desire to round you up for identification.

I got hit by the whole...thing.

[swagneto]

Helpful.

Asking you to elaborate wouldn't be too difficult, now would it?

[fierybluebird]

Yo. I'm not comfortable discussing this on the BBS, you want to talk powers, you can meet me in person. Name a place.

[swagneto]

Fair enough. I'll see you in the library then.

[bentbowarcher.livejournal.com]

[swagneto]

Yes. What were your new ones?

BBS

[batmansphoenix.livejournal.com]

I was affected. Could create illusions out of thin air. It was cool.

BBS

[swagneto]

I would assume. You didn't use them on anyone, did you?

[dumpsterdives.livejournal.com]

youve got to be shitting me

[swagneto]

Excuse me?

[turnip-rage.livejournal.com]

It made me able to control fire.

[swagneto]

Merely control or also create it?

BBS

[notasidedick]

I was given the ability to fly or levitate. I don't usually have any outstanding abilities that would be considered unnatural or outside of the human spectrum though.

BBS

[swagneto]

I see.

I trust you've adapted to the ability while it was in effect?

[loversidolrise.livejournal.com]

I was given the power to tranform myself into whatever I wanted. It wasn't very fun when you can't control it.

[swagneto]

No, I would imagine not. Humans rarely have any understanding of what they're facing in situations like these.

[sorry for the html fail!]

[swagneto]

Hardly. Time compression chose [ for lack of a better word, really ] to gift certain people with powers, while taking away others'. A few students have told me theirs switched with another, all in all creating quite a stir amid the school.

Consider yourself fortunate that you weren't involved. It appears time compression is nothing but a disaster, frustrating students and staff alike.

[ ooc: it's all good! also sorry for the editing because what is reading comprehension. ]

voice to text, go.

[freewolfmoon.livejournal.com]

You'd say I switched powers.
Identification?

text because erik is a dick

[swagneto]

I already gave mine when I sent out the message.

Did you switch with another resident here, or was it an entirely new power?

[werepanther]

You planning on making sense of Time Compression nonsense?

Good luck with that. :/ I'd tell you my powers, but you've already seen them both.

screams all these tags sob

[swagneto]

Not directly. My interest is less about its mechanics, more about the people affected.

Speaking of which, we should talk. Aside from the upcoming SeeD exam, I have little else to do around here. [ ... that blatantly sounds like he's hitting on you, wtf. ] Drinks, perhaps?

[betweenpaths.livejournal.com]

Out of curiousity, what exactly are you going to do with this information?

[swagneto]

You'll find out. I'm not interested in using it against certain people. [ Which may or may not be a lie; or a half truth. ] Consider it data collection.

BBS

[loyalfirst]

[Looks like someone finally learned how to use the BBS.]

Identification for what purpose?

BBS

[swagneto]

A harmless reference to my homeworld.

[bookshrew.livejournal.com]

[swagneto]

I apologize for excluding you. But you see, I had intended on a private dinner to make up for destroying your vacuum. Unless the name tag appeals to you more?

[hellomgann.livejournal.com]

Is it bad if people have showed signs of power before the incident with the Time Compression?

[swagneto]

I wouldn't necessarily consider it a bad thing. Depends on the circumstances, rather.

[yellowzippers.livejournal.com]

[Not signed. Hm. Its odd for Selphie , but she is embarrassed about it]


...I had some weird powers...

[swagneto]

Like what? Ambiguity gets you nowhere.

BBS

[seethelanterns]

So...people had powers from the Time Compression?

BBS

[swagneto]

It seems like that so far, although some of us were gifted with them prior to their arrival here.

let's say this is before david passes out for the canon update/hiatus

[tortileghostwriter]

i presume then from a brief overview of the earlier responses that it counts for your purposes when our abilities were swapped with anothers

in the course of that entirely inane song and dance routine i was given powers revolving around time

sounds good! although we can always backtag if you want

[swagneto]

Involving time? If only you had done something to possibly mend the effects of compression in the first place.
