What's the point of trying at all until I get more powers?

[ :((( ]

[alienation]

In case it's something akin to a muscle that needs training before you see results. Either way, it won't be too long until you can request another power.

[ MIGHT AS WELL? He's just used to considering a billion different tests on these creatures by now. ]

[markofkaine]

[grumble grumble]

I hate it when you're all reasonable.

[alienation]

[ I CAN'T HELP MY GET SHIT DONE BRAIN.

IF I COULD I WOULDN'T BE EVIL.]

Would you prefer my despair...?

[markofkaine]

No, it just means you're probably right. As usual.

[alienation]

[ well. yes. thank you for noticing.

can he have his hand back. what about an elbow. ]

That was simply test one, out of three.

[ plenty more opportunity for Lotor to continue being right.]

[markofkaine]

[yeah you can have your hand. kaine closes the book with a sigh.]

What should we do now, then?

[alienation]

Well, the thought was to see whether you could sleep in form... but the night is still a touch young.

[markofkaine]

And I just had coffee.

[thanks disgusting bean juice]

[alienation]

[ the misery fluid. ]

Then it seems like you're free to do what you'd like for now, doesn't it?

[markofkaine]

Are you suggesting a break from the experiments?

[alienation]

[ Hm. ]

Unless we were to render you unconscious, the only other one we could attempt right now is proximity.

[markofkaine]

This place isn't that large, at least. If we go to opposite ends of the prison and see what happens...

[alienation]

Alright. I will approach the barrier on that side, then.

[ Pointing north. ]

[markofkaine]

I'll head south and keep you updated on the phone.

[alienation]

[ ah

it's my face again. ]

Unless you're prepared to field questions, take extra care in traversing within my body. [ He cannot imagine Kaine wants to explain this. ] I do have several nocturnal associates.

[markofkaine]

[Puts on his spider-mask]

Problem solved.

[He's still an inch shorter than normal, and there's like long hair poking out the back, but still.]

[alienation]

[ the squish of my/your ears... jk they get shoved into a helmet all of the time. ]

I'll speak to you soon, then.

1/2

[markofkaine]

[pointy but soft

Kaine nods, and swings away~~ looks like the webs still work in other bodies]

[markofkaine]

[Barely a minute later, not even halfway across the prison from each other, Lotor's phone rings.]

[alienation]

[ hi ]

You cover ground a lot faster than I do. Did you revert already?

[markofkaine]

Yeah. Looks like I need to stay within about-- 100 feet of you to wear your face.

[alienation]

That's unfortunate, but it could be worse. You won't have to be glued to someone else.

[markofkaine]

It's not like I'm using this for an actual disguise, anyway. Copying anyone near me should work.

[There's a pause]

Yeah, trying to change into you doesn't work at this range either.

[alienation]

[ Hmms. ]

I am returning now, before someone asks me why I'm awkwardly standing next to the clinic.
