There is. It's easier to see than anything else. But I can create psychic energy projections.

[thecoolerloki]

Similar to my magical energy projections, I presume?

[helpdesk_hero]

Perhaps. But it's only close to me, and size limited. And it has mass. I can use it as a shield or a weapon.

[thecoolerloki]

Cool.

Concerning my possible assignment of information gathering: would you prefer I do so as an ordinary student or as Loki?

[Congrats, David. You got him excited about school.]

[helpdesk_hero]

[Take that kid. Who's easily manipulated now?]

I need more practice with it, but it's refreshing to have an active combat power.

I suppose it would depend on what sort of school it is. If it's just normal students, you probably should go as ordinary, and then if people give you issues you can deal with them subtly and no one will know it's you that did it. Or maybe can't confirm it. If it's something were you're surrounded by powered people, probably better to just be you, because you aren't someone to be messed with.

[thecoolerloki]

It also depends on what sort of information you'd prefer, in either case.

[helpdesk_hero]

Like I said, I'm interested in knowing what they think you should know.

[thecoolerloki]

But which school interests you more?

[helpdesk_hero]

I don't know if there is more than one. But given how little I trust these meta-organizations, one indoctrinating young metas is interesting.

[thecoolerloki]

I wonder how they'd deal with one who's already chosen their alignment, though.

[helpdesk_hero]

Society?

[thecoolerloki]

Indeed!

[helpdesk_hero]

I keep finding those I care about in that role

[thecoolerloki]

If we must choose, it's the one that makes the most sense.

[helpdesk_hero]

Fair enough. Be careful. I don't trust either side.

[thecoolerloki]

Obviously I don't either. But I can do more good when people assume I'm a villain.

[helpdesk_hero]

Not like I'm judging. My boyfriend is Society.

[thecoolerloki]

Is having a secret identity fun?

[Sorry, excited kid doesn't care about smooching, he's still on this.]

[helpdesk_hero]

It's safety in my experience. But it can be amusing.

[thecoolerloki]

I've never had a need for one, given everyone knows who I am.

[helpdesk_hero]

Well, whether they do here or not is really up to you.

[thecoolerloki]

Did the New Mutants tell you what I was like when I was briefly human?

[helpdesk_hero]

Most of them don't talk to me, but Dani and I spoke some about it.

[thecoolerloki]

TBH I found it embarrassing mostly. Not that there's anything wrong with being Midgardian, but it was my spell! My human self ought to have been cooler.

[helpdesk_hero]

Coolness is something one creates with time.
