WHAT in person
WHERE Tidy Living Apartments
WHEN Day 132

[A very unusual-looking cutie is standing in the foyer of the Tidy Living apartments today. You definitely haven't seen them before. They are repeatedly pressing the elevator button, then jumping when it opens]

But I don't get it... I know the ding means get in, but who's opening and closing the doors...? Is someone here raising and lowering it? Ahh, and when I went upstairs, it was completely incomprehensible...

[Help them out?]

Not quite. They're just stronger in different ways.

But there's a drawback? Or is it just that even if they're the same otherwise, some are stronger, no drawbacks to balance it out?

[there's a weird bitterness in their voice for a moment]

[starspangledman]

[shakes his head]

There's some drawbacks, but it depends on how they're stronger. Though I don't know of anyone who can't touch other people because of the powers they have.

[because mutants don't exist in the MCU]

Ah... I mean, we can touch, we just have to be careful. I'm a ten, so I could break any lower level if we bumped into each other.

[starspangledman]

[pauses a moment]

It's not quite like that, but it's things like I have to be careful when I shake someone's hand, or giving a hug.

Why's that?
