Super speed… I’d do almost anything to get that. You like it?”[/color] Kwan smiled as she said [color=lightseagreen]I didn’t get any powers, I’ve always been fast.[/color] Then when he added [color=gold][i]Maybe each power has a drawback. The better the power, the worse the drawback? That’s too simple though. My power tires me out after several uses and it honestly isn’t that amazing. I’m sure it uses a lot of energy, but god damn does this shit suck![/i][/color] she couldn’t help herself as she remembered something a stuntman once said [color=lightseagreen]A friend once told me “If Life really sucked then people would smile more” He was both a good sparring partner and a philosopher; a renaissance man.[/color] she giggled Then she added seriously [color=lightseagreen]My ability is an energy hog but that’s understandable when you think of other biologies that operate at high speeds such as hummingbirds and a lot of rodents. If I remember correctly is over 1,000 beats a minute but they do rest when sleeping entering a sort of torpor state where they slow their hearts to about 50 beats a minute. I’m not sure if my body does the same thing as their’s to conserve energy but it might be nice to know for reference. I guess I’ll need to find someone I can trust to take my pulse as I sleep. I will guess that you by your comment that you are disatisfied by your own gift and all I can say is that perhaps you haven’t truly examined it or you need someone else’s perspective.[/color]
