[u]Matthew[/u] "Only when I'm feeling extra frisky." Matt said, giving Amanda a toothy grin back. He allowed his claws to degenerate back to his original arms, and crossed them across his chest. The look on Amanda's face gave away that she was thinking something perverted, which was semi on par with his own mind. What came out of Amanda's mouth next confirmed his suspicions. "Gladly, but I'm actually being somewhat serious here. I need the-" He began, only to be cut off by Nikki. He decided to take this in stride, and would use it to explain what exactly he did so it seemed like he would be answering Nikki's question rather than just bragging. He was proud of his ability, and based upon how Amanda seemed to get off on power, he hoped she would like what he was about to display. "Most of the time, you're right, Nikki." Matthew began, taking a step back and leaning against the wall behind him. "I am a shapeshifter... sometimes." He said, thinking for a moment as to what exactly he had been diagnosed as having. "My current ability is rated under eight, super system, and biological." He said, rolling his hand to lead in to what he was saying. "So your guess would be right. I developed my power last year, about this time, so I don't have too much experience with it. However, my power was a result of the Black Fall effect, if you know what that is, and exposure to a lot, and I mean a lot of power. I spontaneously developed the power I have now, which is technically only one ability with many applications. Biokinesis, and I'm not too good with it yet. But, this academy, while it picked up what I had and rated me off of it, they also picked up what the docs described as my core ability." He said, his eyes darting from Nikki to Amanda and he smiled. He hoped this worked. He fell silent for a moment to let Karlie speak, before continuing on. "You hit the nail on the head, Karlie. I have what they called a combination between Omnikinesis, which is like telekinesis but with more applications, and an un-accessed complete arsenal. I can learn and store just about any power in existence." He said. "And switch between the powers at will. It's what I want your help with Amanda, I want to learn to control metal, and bend it to my will like I do my own body. Electricity, Sound, Metal, hell I could probably learn to manipulate light enough to turn myself invisible. I just need teachers." He said. "The problem being I have learned to control about... one ability out of several million. Yes, Amanda, penis manipulation is within the parameters of my power. No Amanda, I have no practiced with it yet." He said, winking to her "I also need sparring partners, someone to help me not just learn to control, but to master, if anyone is willing. My power is a lot like the Blackmore power that Adam always goes on about, Amanda. The main difference being I don't need to absorb another meta human's power. I just need a lot of time, or a good teacher." He said, tilting his head and cracking his neck. "I have no idea who the ten is. Could be some stupid secret rating of my own ability for all I know. Or Henry there goes even more Hulk when he gets angry." Matt said, pushing himself off the wall. "What about you three, [i]what do you do?[/i]" [u]Henry[/u] "Uh... Ne vous... erm inquiétez pas à ce... sujet ?" Henry replied, using the little French he had picked up from Victoria in the past. "Did I say that right?" He questioned. "Anyways, dont worry about it, Vick. Sorry for nearly strangling you." he said, using one of his huge arms, and pulling her into a half armed hug, before she climbed up on his back again. "If we're put on the same team, you can stay up there until Adam forced us apart. If we pretend hard enough, maybe he might think we're one person." Henry said, his James Bond-Spy eyeball rotating upward to look to Victoria, who had just kissed him on the forehead. If he were still human he would have flustered. Then again if he were still human he probably wouldn't have her on his shoulders, and he probably wouldn't be here, as a somewhat gifted Japanese/Canadian man didn't get you into a school full of super humans. Unless his superpower was size, but then again his dad was about 5'10 and he doubted he would have gotten any taller than that himself. In reality he had a totally not super huge gargantuan crush on Victoria that he knew he would never do anything about because he was 110% positive reptile wasn't on her menu of potential mates. He knew that, if you put his appearance aside, that he was a catch of a man. He was rich, had a good paying job, loved kids, respected women to fullest extent he could, and had achieved a doctoral degree in biomedical sciences and biochemistry. He could also probably become a movie star with his appearance if he really wanted to. Of course life threw his wildcard as being his appearance, and most of the people he met were more interested in what kind of car he could afford to buy them over what he felt (he would buy nothing but a Tesla if he needed a car, he would always tell himself. An extra large Tesla). He felt a bit fucked over compared to some of the other animal meta humans, like Valjean and Vespera, who could return to human form at will. He had to have everything specially made to suit him. Even his damn toilets were different, the door fames had to be bigger otherwise he'd go Wreck-It-Ralph on them by accident. He had come to terms with his difference of course, and he accepted himself for what and who he was. It was the reason why, despite being so different to everyone else, he still functioned socially and had a Facebook page with a respectable following. He smirked to himself in pride at that. He had combined some basic physics and took some trash he found around campus and basically found a way to blow it up using chemistry or some form of energy transferral. He still had that 'mega magnifying glass' he had built using this huge ass lens he happened across/acquired/stole somewhere in his room. And while he had accepted his difference and used it to become a small social media star (he was no Pewdiepie), he did wonder what life would be like if he were still... more him, if he could say that. He would say more human, but sperm tests had shown (yes they tested that) that he was still capable to producing viable, human offspring that were carriers of a meta gene despite having mutated to his degree. These carriers would be activated via black fall effect or if they went through mitosis with the egg cell that was also a carrier... bah, genetics. The human probably wouldn't even be an animal meta and would most likely be scared of him or be ashamed of him if he had a kid. Which really sucked, because he loved kids. What caught his attention was what Adam said about the level ten meta human among them. "I'm rated seven to eight, animal. It's not me." Henry stated, crossing his arms across his chest and ridding his mind of the thoughts he was having. For another time, he mused, now was the time to talk before the storm.
