Cassie saw this as what some overbearing teachers/parents might call a 'teachable moment'. Following Jack-Jack to the kitchen, Cassie first scrutinized the egg, making sure it was safe for child consumption. "Ms. Green is right, John," Cassie said, much to everyone's surprise, "Our superpowers [i]can[/i] make the world a better place." Cassie looked around for a moment. "BUT. Supers who abuse their powers, or use them recklessly, can hurt a lot of people. So we need to learn self-control and only use our powers when we have to."

"It's hard to learn self control when you only use them when you have to, but yes, we can hurt people.  That's why we have to be careful how we use them."  Mary said, disagreeing a bit with the cautious woman.  "Of course, if they were trying anything really dangerous we'd need to be in a training area just to be safe, but that is a simple enough trick that people do all of the time with machines, so we knew what could happen.  Still, I guess it would be safer if we tried it in a the training area until we are used to it.  We wouldn't want to heat up the nails in the wall or the wiring by accident."

She cut up some fruit to go with the super and filled a bowl with various pieces.  She then grabbed a fork and sat down on the couch to eat.  She wasn't a vegan.  In fact, even some plants ate animals, something she was more than willing to duplicate, but she just didn't feel like doing so right now.  "So, how about I go out and get us some ice cream after supper?  It wouldn't take more than a few minutes."  She stopped as a light on the TV started to blink.  She grabbed the remote and typed in a combination and the screen changed to reveal a seemingly distraught Mrs. Parr.

"Mommy!" yelled Jack-Jack.

"Hello, Jack-Jack." she said.  "Listen, Honey's going to come over and watch you for a little while." She looked up at the others.  "The rest of you need to suit up.  There's a robot attacking a research lab on the other side of the city and we're going to need your help."
