[om_starbuck]

Hello, everyone. I'm Dana Scully, and I'm looking forward to meeting you all. I'm thirteen, and most recently from Annapolis, Maryland. I'm sharing a room with Kitty Pryde, so you're welcome to come and say hello if you have the time and the will.

Hey, Dana, and welcome to the Island of Misfit Toys. I'm Pietro, and I'm really fast.

Necropathy. Huh. That's pretty cool, actually.

[om_starbuck]

Hello Pietro, nice to meet you.

How fast is pretty fast?

[om_quicksilver]

Speed of sound+++. All the time, but I slow myself down a lot. Mostly so people can understand what the hell I'm saying.

Sometimes that doesn't even work, but what can you do, right?

Nice to meet you, too.

[om_starbuck]

That's amazing. Your cells must take a pounding, not to mention your internal organs if you're moving that quickly.

[om_quicksilver]

Exactly, and I love that you said that first thing.

Also amazing that I don't look/feel like I'm about 200 years old already. Just lucky my mutation and/or mitochondria compensate for it.

... what about the necropathy? Is that cool?

[om_starbuck]

If you asked me before yesterday, I'd have told you it's not possible for cells to do that. But obviously in your case they must. Your internal structures must be altered, too.

Necropathy's fine. It doesn't have all the interest quirks your mutation has, though.

[om_quicksilver]

All my cell structures are altered, along with all my functions, yeah. I'm a medical wonder like that, but around here it's easy to forget it's unbelievable, considering how common being this uncommon is.

I'm sure necropathy has plenty of quirks. And I'm sure figuring it out is, um, an adventure.
