WHO "Ino" & YOU
BROADCAST Fleet-wide video!!
ACTION Starstruck for anyone that might look in the cargo bay.
WHEN April 12th.

[ Ino, what'choo doin'? She looks... strained. Stressed, but trying to hold it together. She's sitting in front of the camera, taking a deep breath as if to prepare herself for what she is about to say. ]

Hey, guys. This is really sudden, but I need to ask a favor of anyone who'd listen. It's important! I've got this friend... he's got a huge problem. Back where he's from, some people can hold a lot of powers in them, not magic or anything like that, and they need to take even more in sometimes or they go crazy. Or die.

Does anyone have any powers they could... lend him? He'll give them back, he promises, it's just—[ She reaches up, clutches at her chest like it's hurting her to think about it. Judging by the slight sheen of sweat on her face, maybe it is. ]—he needs help really badly. I'm worried about him, and there's not much I can do...

[ Her head dips, long bangs covering her face before she sucks in a breath, part for the show and part out of real difficulty in keeping herself together right now, before her hand snaps out and she turns off the feed to collect herself. ]

Yup. I have to hand it over, literally. Put it right in you.

[ She steps closer, eyeing Ino rather than Tadashi. Look, she knows who the real threat here is. ]

Sooo that means I have to touch him.

[ishere]

[ he casts a sideways glance to ino as well, as if quietly checking to make sure that she's... actually okay with this... before he takes a step closer to aaron. ] It's fine. Go ahead.

[Allen meanwhile standby, watching to see just what's going to happen]

[ino]

[ She just nods at him. She's definitely still ... worried, and tense, but -- if this is what he wants to do, and it'll guarantee Allen gets his eye back eventually ... it doesn't seem like there's much other choice. (After all, she's pretty sure Aaron wouldn't want to give it to her instead, given how this whole encounter has gone down ... ) ]

[ Well, that's permission enough. She puts a hand to her chest and pulls it away; there's resistance in the motion, and it's soon apparent why. The power is almost anticlimactically lacking in characteristic. It is simply some kind of see-through, gel-like bubble maintaining a mostly-spherical form in her hand. Holding it like that, she moves up to Tadashi and takes a shoulder to hold him still before reaching to his forehead and gently placing it inside of him.

For someone who's never had a power, she can't quite imagine what it must feel like, someone with hardly any room taking in an amazing gift like that. Her own problem is having too much room. She watches, waits to feel it resonate from inside of him through the hand on his shoulder, then steps away, hands raised. ]

There. See if you can't do something with it.

[ishere]

[ it is probably the single weirdest sensation that he's ever experienced. it's not that the power is immediately overwhelming - it's just unusual. there had been no power, and then suddenly there was one, and it was like opening himself up to a sense that he hadn't before realized even existed. hearing sound for the first time after spending your entire life without realizing you were deaf.

it's neat. incredible, in a way, but really above all else: still weird. he shivers a little bit, brow furrowing when the little mental switch flips 'on.' ]


.... huh.

[save_the_souls]

[He watches with concern. Well, Tadashi isn't screaming like a banshee or looking to be in great pain- so that's something!]

How is it?

[ino]

[ She's just watching Tadashi carefully for any signs of distress. Because Aaron is probably getting torn a new one if Tadashi was given something that would seriously hurt him :( ]
