The Streets of Fandom, Friday Afternoon
"Alright, guys!" Zack's arms were crossed over his chest as he looked around the streets. Handwavey Messages had been left on the phones of anybody who had exchanged numbers at past Reserve meetings, Martial or Magic, and people had been told to bring whatever they needed in order to go zombie-fish hunting. "This is kind of like the time we had alligators burping goldfish, but this time, there aren't any gators, and the fish mean business. I don't want anybody setting off to face them down on their own, you hear me?"
He casually ducked as a swarm of piranha zipped by, where his head had been a moment before.
Karla sent a flare of Sapphire power after the swarm, dropping them in mid-air. Hello! They were talking here! No reason to be man-eating and rude.
"There's no reason for anyone to keep fighting while injured, or anything like that, so if you get bit or something, head back to the dorms or the clinic and have someone stitch you back up," Karla continued. "The last thing any of us want is some kind of suppurating flesh wound. They're gross."
While Karla spoke, the piranhas had undergone their zombiefication and flung themselves back up into the air, heading back for the group.
"Great. Also, it looks like you have to kill them twice."
A well-aimed Fira spell courtesy of Zack took care of the re-raised fish, and after a moment taken to poke at one of the char-broiled bodies with his toe, Zack shrugged and looked to the group.
"Let's get to it, then, and show these fish that they're messing with the wrong island!"
[This was always in the streets, ssh. OCD-Free and open to all! If you think you got a message, then you totally did, but anybody is welcome to meander on in to check out the action! Co-Written with the lovely
glacial_witch, of course!]

"Some form of telekinesis?"

Besides Craft, of course.
"Some time when we're not in combat, I can give you a run down of what I can do?" she offered. "It's...kind of long."

Good job, Karla! That wasn't confusing at all!

if it was visible, but still slightly more complex than Cally's society. "I comprehend the idea, if not the mechanism. Only a few of my people have other psionic powers, but everyone under thirty or so is telepathic."no subject
Intrigued Karla was intrigued.

Stupid piranhas! Karla would much rather be sitting down, chatting about this over tea or something.
no subject
"More complicated, yes." To say the least. "We use genetic manipulation techniques and artificial gestation machinery; our infants can be created and born in a matter of days."
no subject
"Fascinating," Karla said, in a voice that suggested she truly was fascinated. "Are you still capable of childbirth the natural way--whatever that way might be for your people--or has that changed with the onset of this new technique?"
In a few minutes, she might realize that was a rude question. Maybe.
"Well, not so new, I suppose, if the earliest generation is about thirty. Oh! Does that mean you are a telepath, too?" Cally looked under thirty, but if their gestation lasted only a few days, who knew how their aging process worked?

//Yes,// she added while still staring down the fish. //To all of that. Just almost no one does anymore.// She smiled slightly, though it was a bit wasted on the piranha. //Not that people have stopped going through the motions for recreational purposes.//

Karla wondered in Cally, having been raised in a society where many people were telepathic, had ever had to deal with trying to get information out of an untrained mind--otherwise known as 'chaos.'

Crushing it beneath the sole before it could get its bearings and fly again was rather satisfying.
"It makes things very silent, though, when we're away from each other."
