[ RANG JUST SOMEHOW MAKING IT WORSE. which is to say that jonas looks appropriately horrified, except he also kind of laughs nervously because let's...not. ]
Building furniture the fastest would be challenging. IKEA instructions are notoriously useless. But without more places to go it's not like we have a lot of options either.
[ terrible. anyway, this is also kind of terrible, but more in the sense that jonas is not wholly surprised there are people who immediately want to fight. so instead he settles for a half-grin, admittedly a little curious. ]
Be...cause the spread of powers isn't even that big of a spread? Kind of seems like a fight wouldn't do much if half of us have the same ability.
[ unless rang has other ideas. jonas is wondering. ]
We could just learn to get creative. [though having a support power still SUCKS] And it seems like a bunch of us are familiar with fighting, even without the powers.
[it's his turn to look thoughtful as he looks jonas over..... is he the fighter type......]
[ well. the thing about that is, rang says that and jonas kind of looks a little blank for a second. hm. that's. hm. not really something he wants to elaborate on, actually. ]
Is that a good thing or a bad thing in this case...? I mean I know there're definitely some people who're used to fighting with weapons, but I don't think I'd put myself in the same category.
[someone who won't elaborate on the questions rang asks... that's new, and more of what Rang expected in a place where they've been told they'll have to compete with each other.
it adds a little dot of respect at least, to see jonas hold a card close.]
It should be fine. If there's one thing I know for sure, it's that this place did its best to even the playing field.
[he pats a bowling ball]
For example, if I was my usual self, then I could break this into pieces with just one hand.
[ thanks for that. maybe it'll come out with time, but...it's early. ]
You're not the first to mention missing something, so...you might be onto something with that. [ strip everybody of their powers and force them to normie statue. he's perfectly okay with that. ] What kind of "usual self" are we talking? Superhuman?
[ ballcrusher...since rang put that out there, he figures it's fine to ask and see what he says. ]

[rang says, and then there's a beat where he realizes the joke he just made,]
That wasn't on purpose.
no subject
Maybe that's the real way we know we're dead. Being forced into tacky retail chains against our will.
[ he says like he hasn't been at mcdonalds a lot for their coffee. ]

Eugh.
[he shudders.... that was scary jonas don't say it again]
Or maybe it's where we'll compete. Like an eating contest. See who builds furniture the fastest.
[these are all terrible missions]

I guess we'll just have to put a pin on that.
[let's never go back to it actually,]
The other idea is the most obvious one. Why have powers if we won't use them?
[FIGHT!!!!]

Like you. You look pretty scrappy.
