He grabs the arm he already has grabbed with both, spinning around her for an armbar! Are her powers activating!? Back to Top   Rebecca Jefferson Legend Defense Will it be you this time?

She's focusing on not activating her powers at this point, gritting her teeth together. Back to Top   El Sensei Sensei El Jefe I control the universe!

But there's also the whole don't fail your goal thing. She chooses to tap out! She's never going to live this down. Back to Top   El Sensei Sensei El Jefe I control the universe!

He even offers a hand up! Back to Top   Rebecca Jefferson Legend Defense Will it be you this time? [send pm] Joined: October 2015 Gender: Posts: 4,354 Improvement Matt-ers (Matt!

Not to mention it's weird compared to everything Eric's ever mentioned about him. In the end, she takes the hand and stands! Back to Top   El Sensei Sensei El Jefe I control the universe!

You made some mistakes, but you clearly know a little about fighting at least. And you didn't use your power." He looks at his wrist, just noticing it as it heals. "Or...not much."

She looks at his wrist and frowns as he winces. "I'm still working on it." It's both apology and reiteration, but she's not hiding her displeasure at the results.

We don't let things like that happen, we teach control, just like this." He frowns, taking it rather personally. Back to Top   Rebecca Jefferson Legend Defense Will it be you this time?

They weren't her words, just her impressions. Not to mention, she came to Paradigm ten years after gaining her power. A lot of things can happen in that much time, good and bad. "Not that I'm not glad forit." It's true. There'd been more hope for her head since she'd joined than she could remember. Ups and downs happen everywhere, but this? Paradigm had given her a chance at solid progress. She's not sure why Matt jumped the defensive gun on her, though. Back to Top   El Sensei Sensei El Jefe I control the universe!

"People like me?" Her arms cross over her chest as she looks at him and scowls. Back to Top   El Sensei Sensei El Jefe I control the universe!

She'd seen Clyde set fire to campus right along with Matt, after all, and she knew she wasn't the only one with the problem to come to Paradigm. "Or do you mean people who could become a problem, but you have enough time to try and prevent that?" She tilts her head to the side. Technically it's the same thing he said, but the phrasing she uses refocuses the issue elsewhere. She seems to be expecting the latter more than anything.
