kijani's bit will be going up soon.
Kalinda thought on that for a moment, "If I didn't have any powers, I would be happy. I would be normal. I wouldn't be vibrating with the feeling of emotions, and I wouldn't be worried about blasting the school apart" She said, her tone neutral, but cracked as she continued, "I wouldn't have caused a guys death, and I would be in normal school, would be blissfully unaware of all the horrible things in the world" She sighed heavily. "You have your strengths, Devika. You aren't your powers. Anyone can be a hero, or a villian, if they just know how. You don't need powers for that. Besides, what's the point of getting stronger if you don't know how to use it? What's the point, if it isn't your strength?"
Devika shook her head a bit. "Kalinda, what makes you think I don't know how to use strength? Also, I am doing this for my own confidence. I want to be stronger, I want to not be wheezing after 2 flights of steps, and I don't want my belly to jiggle like gelatin when I brush my teeth. I am not my powers, and therefore I have to make what is me- my body- stronger. Hero or villain isn't the point of this." She pointed to the weight with her free hand. "The point is me being a better me. Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to do a cooldown."
can someone give me a quick update on what's happening so i can jump back in?
Kijani tried to protest when he paid for her things, but realized she didn't have a great argument against him doing so. She was going to have to eat, wasn't she? "I- I guess so, yes. But how will I cook it? The hotel doesn't have a kitchen, does it?"
"I meant...why? Why bother? I lift weights with my telekineses to enable me to work easier with it. How is doing this going to help?" Kalinda said, frowning slightly at herself, then shaking her head. Sometimes she just didn't get people.
Devika gave Kalinda a calm look, switching hands with the weights and starting a new set of reps. "Imagine yourself in a brilliantly lit room, one made so there are no shadows. It's just you in the room, and there is nothing to use your TK on. What will you do then? If you didn't have your powers, what use would you actually be to anyone?" She let the question hang in the air, her eyebrows lifted. "I know that I'm not too much but a paperweight with big boobs if my empathy fails, so... I'm seeking to change that the best I can."
Kijani tried them on and smiled broadly. "I'll look like a modern Amelia Earhart. Yes, these are just fine." She took them off and put them with the other things she was going to buy. "Okay... so gloves, goggles... what else do I need?" This was a new adventure for her, and she was getting rather excited about it.
Kalinda was sitting on the roof of the girl dorms, having not slept much, but feeling quite alive. She watched, waited for The boys to come back, for any sign that they were in danger. But when she saw Devika, heading towards the gym, She leaped down, landing lightly, and followed her after a time. "Haven't you tried this before?" She asked with some curiosity, seeing that Devika was working on the treadmill and weights.
Devika had felt someone following her, but really paid them no mind. Until Kalinda spoke, she didn't bother to acknowledge her. "Not really. Getting stronger isn't a matter of trying once and then quitting. I had maybe a month of this before kind of falling out of routine. That's nowhere near enough. Me and John email each other back and forth sometimes. He came up with a nice training regimen for me." She continued to work, pushing back her sweaty curls with one hand. "This is constant work. So no, I have not tried it before, because I'm still in the middle of trying it."
Hey guys, just letting you know that I won't have internet for seven days, because my internet providers are lazy and can't be bummed to fix it sooner. So I won't be able to post for a while. To be honest, I don't know how I'll survive this week...
Do you have a cell phone or a laptop? Does your local library have wifi?
Just so you all know, I'm heading into a month of midterms and midterm assignments. This week (the first) is killer as I have 2 assignments and 2 midterms. I may not be around much over the next week for sure but I will try to keep up posting at least once every 2 days on average.
*hugs gently* Ouch. That sounds like it's gonna suck. Don't worry, though. We've got plenty of students in the group, not to mention people who just have job and life stuff flare up from time to time. You take your time, and if you can't post, that's really okay. Life and school come first. Also, sleep and food come second. Anyone who says different has never been in college.
Just a warning... if the Question got nosy with Jin, she'd punch him in the throat. "Try asking your nosy questions with a bruised trachea. Asshole."
