@GamerXZ It cannot. As you said, paying a gold coin simply allows you to chose any specialization. Landaus was mistaken.

Nah, not really, if you want to and feel it would be interesting. Haha.
Oh, dear.
Did you have to?
I really don't want to be told to fight you.
I don't really want to be reasonable and just vanish, either.
I was having such a nice conversation, too.
... Oh, well.
Does make for a pretty convincing situation to have to be saved from, I suppose.
Hahahaaaaa...

@GamerXZ The only way to get a second specialization is to take that monster trait.
Which makes it pretty fantastic an option, really. Probably the best one there. Hah.

Lataniva paused briefly as she was met with the new crewmember. First impression was that she wasn’t spectacularly impressed with her, though yet again, she was difficult to impress. Given her circumstances, there was likely a good reason Taleste was here. Still. Lataniva spoke the first thought that hit her before properly responding.
There had been a time not too long ago when she never could have friendly conversations, when there had been a pressure on her to always, ALWAYS be wary and threatening… but here that was no longer a requirement. Which was nice, and a silver lining to all that had happened to her. Yeah.

‘They’re quick to replace the fallen, I see.’
Having said that, Lataniva extended her hand to grasp Taleste’s. Shaking hands wasn’t a Dalentian gesture, but she had learned of its purpose in her journey through the galaxy. Her eyes locked unshakingly at Taleste’s own, Lataniva’s black eyes and neutral expression showing no particular emotion.‘Indeed. I am Lataniva, hunter-warrior of Dalentia. The surety in the statement makes me believe you’ve met my kind before. Then you already know what I am capable of. What areas of expertise can I entrust you to, Taleste?’
Lataniva asked, distracting herself from the ship by making small-talk. Lataniva honestly didn’t mind a friendly conversation once-in-a-while.There had been a time not too long ago when she never could have friendly conversations, when there had been a pressure on her to always, ALWAYS be wary and threatening… but here that was no longer a requirement.

There we go, then. The post was made with the assumption that I still control Viola.
I tagged everyone that appears to be present at that particular scene, though only the last actual line is said. That's about that.

collab between Banana and PlatinumSkink, using characters Kyoshi and Viola Hopkins/Speedrunner
‘Ah.’ There was a note of realization in a young, female voice on the other side. ‘Hello. This is- a-actually, I’m unimportant. My sister isn’t. My sister is Wisp.’ She said, sounding nervous. She hesitated to continue, giving Kyoshi time to potentially respond.
"Wisp? I apologize for sounding dumb, but I'm a bit new to the cape scene. What's going on?" Kyoshi responded with a slightly surprised tone. She needed information to go off of if she was going to get the rest of the crew on board the mission.
‘Oh, alright.’ She took a deep breath to start explaining. ‘She's a Rogue, and a Stranger. She bends light around her and can hide herself from sight. She never allows herself to be seen in the streets. … But, despite this, the Rockers somehow tracked down our home.’ It became quiet for a bit as the girl on the other side was figuring what part to say next.
Kyoshi was slightly taken aback by this. Normally someone would go to the PRT for this sort of thing, but in any case it was a welcome thing to do. "That... that doesn't sound good at all. Do you need us to rescue her?" asked Kyoshi concernedly. If she needed help, then it was the Minutemen's duty to provide that help.
‘Um, yes. But it's a little bit more complicated than just that.’ The voice said. ‘My sister... has been using her ability to steal in order to keep us alive. She's been skirting the line of becoming a villain, herself.’ She breathed in and out a bit, a bit nervous. ‘The Rockers came to recruit her.’ The voice clarified that bit from earlier. ‘And in order to protect, well, me... she might let them. I don't want to see her become a real villain. So yes... I need her rescued.’ So she said.
"Well... Okay. We need a place to go to and we'll be on our way." Kyoshi replied. She wasn't too keen on helping someone who was going down the path of villainy, but who knows? Maybe the team could put her on the path of justice and good... or whatever. That sounded really cheesy in Kyoshi's head.
‘I don't know where they are. She didn't tell me where she was going, but I'd assume they're in the part of town controlled by the Rockers. And, um, you might want to bring something to be able to detect her, as she's normally invisible. Maybe G4M3R could fashion up some... some... some thermal goggles from Metal Gear Solid, perhaps...?’ She asked, a tiny bit of hopefulness in her voice as she asked.
"Hm... I'll ask the others about it and we'll go find her." Kyoshi came back with after the other line finished speaking. It'd be a bit tough to get the others on board with this random call, but maybe they'll have it as a sort of test for Outsider if he's joining.
‘Thank you...’ The other line went silent for a bit. Then... ‘I should probably mention. Before leaving to meet with them to discuss terms, she also mentioned something about potentially just killing them all to be done with it if they didn't agree. Since she's a "Stranger with a knife", as she put it, she reasoned she could. I don't want her to do that, either. If she fails, likely since she has no experience fighting, she'll be in real trouble. And even if she'd succeed, she wouldn't be the same sister that left. This is partly why I'm not calling the PTR, they might overreact if she's already started.’ There was a bit more silence, before the voice started again with a bit more sad and genuine plead to it. ‘I don't want her to become a murderer or a villain. ... Please, save my sister.’
"If G4M3R and Artificer won't save her, then I'll try my best to get her out. I am the real fighter of the crew after all." Kyoshi stated before turning back towards G4M3R, closing the cellphone in her hand after hanging up. "G4M3R, I got a call about the Rockers and a sister that needs saving. What do you want me to do?"

That was besides the point right now though, as a phone ringtone buzzed from Kyoshi's bag. Someone was giving a call to the Minutemen, and Kyoshi was the one who had to take it. She became the involuntary secretary of the group when she joined, and she had to take some of the calls that she had received. She walked over to the side of the building and answered the call, trying to sound proper as she did. "This is the Minutemen. Kyoshi speaking."
‘Ah.’ There was a note of realization in a young, female voice on the other side. ‘Hello. This is- a-actually, I’m unimportant. My sister isn’t. My sister is Wisp.’ She said, sounding nervous. She hesitated to continue, giving Kyoshi time to potentially respond.

@Banana So, I should post the collab, was it? I thought it kind of made sense that you do since you'll be turning to the others by the end of the post, so you could combine it with yourself talking. But, otherwise, sure, I could post it and then you respond to it with talking to your companions or so. That works, too. So?
Wisp

Was he telling the truth? That it had been just luck? That would… be extremely relieving, it just meant she had suffered the consequences of staying in a villain-district a bit too long. There was always the possibility that he was a good liar, but he had spoken about it so confidently, she felt it was the truth. Or maybe she was just easy to trick, but she didn’t want to consider that.
That said, if that was it, then her initial purpose with coming here was complete. They wouldn’t be able to find her again. Their new place was a lot harder to find for the Rockers. So, she could just vanish right now, and then that was it. No more trouble with villains. There was a numerous second silence and nothingness for Shatterpoint as Wisp considered this.
… … … No. Not yet. She had a unique opportunity here. She had to look into what she could find out on this road. Just in case she found an opportunity to cause real damage to the world of villains in Denver. Unearth some conspiracies or so. If it turned bad, she’d just vanish. Yeah. She could always vanish.
As for the difference between Wisp and the robber…
i will say that while i’m invisible myself
i don’t have the means to find someone else who is invisible as well
i don’t have the means to find someone else who is invisible as well
That said. Onto the matter about communicating.
i will not permit you to have a technological link to me
as it could be traced
and so i cannot permit immediate communication
we will meet up at predetermined times
ensuring i know the next time and place before i leave
as such, when and where would you like to meet next?

It was possible for them to put a trap for her if they knew where they were going to meet up. Wisp was aware of this, but, this’d have to do. She wanted no links whatsoever with this team. She didn’t know what kind of orders they’d have for her, but their nature would determine her future with this cooperation. There was a very real chance they’d say her orders and then never hear from her again.
