Yo fleeters -

Can I just say I'm like 95% relieved we left Planet Creeperfuck and its creepy as fuck messages behind? I say 95% because there's a legit 5% chance that the moment I relax will be the moment I get eaten.

I actually have a few other things to bring up except for alien movie tropes:

1. thumbs up to everyone who came to the winnsco halloween party. major thumbs up to those who stayed to help us clean up.

2. superheroes, enhanced humans, friendly, gorgeous alien ladies ( sup kara ) and other supereverythings - I have a bone to pick with you regarding a creepily fast hologram of a creepily fast creepily-everything speedster from my world. I want to make sure that if he comes here, we're not doomed so if you want to practice your moves, I'm your man.

regular humans are always invited but lemme tell you, it's pointless to shoot at a speedster and also I think hank has a rule about no bullets on our ship.

3. I have started preparing for my first ever Space Christmas. if you need twinkle lights or other engineered decorations, I'm at the blameless, you can come and order some. free of charge if your'e willing to help.

4. yes, there will be space engineered mistletoe. no, you don't get a choice where it goes. yes, I have spies everywhere. yes, it will give you a minor electric shock if you try to remove it. yes, I will know about it.

That doesn't sound like a no on the marbles idea.

[However, the whole 'fast enough to rip through the fabric of time and space' was an issue.] So... short of hexing magic, trying to figure out how to stop someone that fast sounds near impossible. I would suggest asking a certain magnetic manipulator on the Fleet for a hand. You know, try and use the natural metal in the body to hold him still so he can't move, but he might not be keen to go for that. [Remy had seen the Magneto of his world do that, to a degree; holding those who had metal based mutations immobilized. In theory Erik could do the same, depending how in tune he was with his powers and how precise he could control small quantities of metal.]

it's a define nope on the marbles idea

we are not upsetting a psychotic speedster.

if a non-psychotic one appears, I'm with you.

I heard about Magneto. We could try working with his powers and maybe with extreme cold. it won't last forever or even for more than 5 minutes but sometimes, that's what it takes, right?

Well now you're just no fun.

So, let's get this straight. There is multiple individuals with super speed from your world, and at least one of them may pose a danger to yourself or others who are on the Fleet or could show up on the Fleet, right? I would say if we had a better understanding of the augment that you could use something there to your advantage, but not sure I like the idea of anyone having access to altering those.

My own powers would be useless until I could get in physical contact with them, and even then I would suggest leaving that as a last ditch effort. My powers aren't indoor friendly or person friendly either. Short of wanting to explode a leg off him, that would make running harder.

look

when I say psychotic I mean it. seriously nuts.

at least two, yep. I can engineer a way to slow them down for a few minutes but for now, it's all I got.

ok but

now I gotta know

powers! what are we talking about here? I mean I've seen it all but still.

Yeah, trust me, have known a few like that in my time, shame we don't have the 'stay the hell away from them' option here.

Technically you would call it kinetic charging. Give me a chance to make physical contact with something and can use energy to overload an item until it explodes. Works on both organic and no organic, any size, though larger stuff does take longer to charge and maintain the charge.

are you serious

this is super cool

does it mess with your levels of energy?

how's your metabolism?

how much do you need to eat to sustain that level of action?

text

[cajunspice]

Not most the time, but in this case yes, I am.

Yeah, pretty much seem to have more energy to burn than others do, higher body temperature too.

And nah, need actually a number of ways to burn it off. So I don't go 'boom'. That might get messy.

are the protein on board enough?

how much do you have to eat per day I mean my speedster friend used to get through 40+ burgers.

text

[cajunspice]

Taste wise? No. Nutrition wise? As much as anyone else. Seems more a case I'm just lucky to get away with stuff that wouldn't be that great for others. Especially when it comes to alcohol, seem to be able to shrug off a hangover better than most.

Now know of others who need what you just described. Got one, a teleporter, who can pack away the food. Then again, got to imagine takes a lot of energy to 'port yourself between locations.

huh

you know my speedster friend can't get drunk at all

unless it's lab induced alcohol
