Here - hand me the knocker. [She points. It's just a simply-carved, sturdy piece of wood, lying near Emblica's foot outside of Hange's reach.]

[amarant]

[ Pauses until Hange points it out, then she picks it up and hands it to her. ]

The knocker?

[ She can maybe guess what it's for, but who knows if that's right. ]

[aberrant_type]

Observe.

[She works her fingers between the hard, curved scales that cover the gill slits. Blood pours out suddenly in a dark purple-red gush; the fish's mouth gapes open and closed. Hange raises the knocker and... POW! The fish gets hit right between the eyes. And again, and again, flopping sporadically as it all happens.

Three hard whacks and Hange counts it as over. The fish gets laid flat on the ice.]

The knocker. You see?

[amarant]

[ That's what she'd guessed; whether because of that or because it simply wasn't a shocking sight anymore, she doesn't react much as she watches. ]

I guess I don't need to ask why it's called that.

[aberrant_type]

It's all in the name.

[One fish has been diced up to serve as bait; Hange twists the newly-dead one off the hook and replaces it with a chunk of frosted flesh, and drops the whole setup back in the water.]

Tell me more about your powers?

[amarant]

[ She's got quite the little system set up here; honestly, Emblica's a bit impressed. ]

Is there anything in particular...?

[aberrant_type]

[A model of efficiency, that's Hange.]

Well, maybe... but I'd like to hear you describe it first.

[amarant]

[ So cool... ]

Someone's ability to use it depends on how much they know. Since I understand plants and how they grow, I can easily grow them. But if it were something like...this--

[ Gesturing to the fish. ]

I don't think there's a lot I could do. I never studied much about them. Moving things around is easy, altering things is a bit more difficult. Creating things is the hardest, I think.

[aberrant_type]

Can you create things? And I presume if you can manipulate things, you know where they are. Is sensing part of your powers?

[amarant]

Only if the components creating them are there. I've spent a long time studying the world, so that I could be more capable--

[ With a bitter sort of laugh-- a short huff: ]

It's funny, how all that work turned out to be a bad thing.

[aberrant_type]

Mmm...

[Emblica has... sort of mentioned this before. Hange quiets down a bit.]

What's the technology level like at your home? Have I asked that before?

[amarant]

It's nothing like this, certainly.

[ Eager to get away from that subject, she picks up on the next thing that Hange brings up. ]

We have radio, telephones, but...what's here is amazing.
