"Like... with the paperwork?"

She blinked, thinking.

"Oh, do you not have a super power...?"

How sad!

"Oh! OH!"

She laughed slightly, as if that hadn't even occurred to her. Mostly because it didn't.

"Yeah, I do. I just don't usually think about it, you know?"

"Sure, I didn't used to either, I typically functioned without it."

She nodded with a soft smile.

"I have been using my power a lot more lately. I've been trying to come to terms with it so that I can use it when I need to. But I have chains... They aren't exactly something that function in normal society, you know?"

"Chains? Are we talking literal or figurative?" He smiles and crosses his arms.

The sound of metal rattling against metal would echo softly from around her. It was quiet but undeniable, and a few seconds later, he would see one chain appear from her shoulder blade. It wiggled a bit and stretched out towards him.

If he would let it, she would rest it against his shoulder. It was cool to the touch and felt solid, almost as if it were just a chain: real, metal chain.

"Let" was a pretty subjective term here. It was more that he was super creeped out and didn't know what to do besides smile as his eyes widened in horror but yes. He lets her.

"That's...amazing...!" -ly terrifying.

She winced slightly at his hesitation and the chain would disappear from sight, just like that. She didn't bother trying to sink it into him or read his mind, worried that that would just make that hesitation more obvious.

Looking away from him, she shuffled slightly.

"Yeah..."

"How did you do that? It was like a ghost!" With it gone, his enthusiasm and curiosity instantly perk up.

"They are, um... a part of me. You know?"

She smiled shyly, still not quite regaining her confidence.

"But where'd they go?" He begins circling her, looking for them!

"Back into me."

She chuckled nervously, letting him circle her.

"They're literally a part of me."

She giggled and shrugged.

"If you want to think of it that way."

She tried to chuckle at that. It wasn't the first time she was called spooky, and despite everything, it still really hurt.

She gave a shrug.

"I guess it depends on how you define spooky... What about you?"

"It reminds me of a Christmas Carol, with the ghost of Christmas Past and all the chains!" He gladly tells her why!

"Me? It's not as cool as yours, I can shrink."

"I'm not sure yet. At least this small!"

He drops to the size of a quarter!

She watches him shrink and giggles slightly. Getting down on her knees so she can look at him, she offers him her hand, if he wants her to lift him.

"That looks useful," she says quietly, assuming her voice would be booming to him at that size.

"It is!" His voice squeaks, barely audible as he climbs up into her hand!

"...or it will be, I think."

She continues to whisper as she lifts him closer.

"Do you look forward to being a field agent? You have a really cool power!"

"I am. A little nervous, but that's normal right? I'm not sure I compare with everyone else here." He pauses as he's brought closer.

"Wow."
