[quote]“Oh just my power having a sense of humor you know? I need a way to make things stick or stop and my shard wants to push me as close to single digits in kelvin as I’ve ever felt! All while I’m seeing all kinds of new capes and hostages that I really don’t want to end up accidentally freezing or blowing up. Funny right?”[/quote]

Werelight winced in sympathy.  "Tell me about it.  Sometimes, my power seems like it's trying to help me...and the rest of the time, it's trying to stir up trouble."

He glanced uneasily at his orb, some tiny part of him worried that it would object to his statement, but it remained stationary.  It had never responded to speech before; it probably wasn't going to start doing that anytime soon.  Whatever intelligence controlled it didn't speak English.  Or maybe it just didn't care about what Werelight's opinion of it.

Before he could say anything else to Calvinball, Dart started moving forward, forcing Werelight to hurry to catch up.  He brought his orb up to hover a foot or two in front of him, ready to catch him if he fell or to shove him out of the way of incoming attacks.

[i]I still haven't really done anything,[/i] Werelight thought to himself, [i]and my main power isn't going to be all that useful against Spindle's wires.  My Master power, though...[/i]  "Dart," he asked quietly, "do you know if it's safe to use my secondary power on Spindle?  I'm not sure how it would interact with [i]her[/i] power, so it might not be a good idea to try it, but the option's there."
