030 - Floating around?

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

[Mohinder's still a girl, though thankful to Mary for having gotten her things to wear besides the saris which, while lovely, were too much trouble. She's even a bit more grateful today as she keeps ending up against the ceiling--thankfully due to the lack of gravity, not Sylar's bad mood, at least. Skirts would make this even more awkward, but she always did want to know what it felt like to fly. A bit wary of the lack of gravity thing outside with nothing to stop her from flying too high, only to have gravity come back abruptly, she's sticking to the castle, and she's having a bit too much fun with the floating around the halls.]

...Possibly it isn't as useful as other abilities, but flying has to be the most fun.

I don't know, I've found it to be really useful.

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

I didn't say it was useless...[was possibly channeling discussions with Nathan]...just..My point really was the fun bit?

[spongetastic.livejournal.com]

[chuckles] Yeah, it's definitely fun. I missed it.

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

Perhaps there will be some way to get it back?

[spongetastic.livejournal.com]

This place wouldn't be kind enough to do that without a price.

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

But perhaps back home? There has to be some way it's possible.

[spongetastic.livejournal.com]

There is. [hesitates; obviously a bit reluctant to tell Mohinder about this]

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

[He was half afraid Peter might say it like that...has been filled in by Daphne on the general idea of the formula and that it didn't go well at first and then was fine later, but he doesn't have any of the details, so he just ventures...] The formula? Daphne told me a bit about what's to come...

[spongetastic.livejournal.com]

Yeah, the formula. [hesitates again] I've seen that it's possible to give people abilities. The forumla works.

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

[hesitates] Daphne said there was something wrong with it at first...and with me...but then it got worked out all right, but she didn't know the details...

[spongetastic.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I... she's later in time than I am. Something must have happened to change things.

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

[dry] From what little she said, I'm going to be incredibly grateful for that.

[spongetastic.livejournal.com]

[cringes a little] Right.

[Mohinder]

I'll tell you if you want to know.

[Peter]

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

I...keep telling myself I don't want to know, but that's a lie.

I do.

[Mohinder]

[spongetastic.livejournal.com]

When I saw you, you were... it looked like you had scales or something. The formula turned you into-- I honestly don't know what it was.

You were working with my father to fix the formula. I guess since I left, you figured it out.

[Peter]

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

...Scales? I see...[really, really doesn't want to think about that part]

Wait...your father? I was working for him?

[Mohinder]

[spongetastic.livejournal.com]

Yeah. He wanted your help to get the formula working properly.

[Peter]

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

And I agreed? I suppose...if he had the answers I needed to try and fix what had gone wrong, but, still.

[Mohinder]

[spongetastic.livejournal.com]

That must have been why you did it. And if Daphne says things are better for you in her time, you must have figured it out.

[Peter]

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

Which is good to know. No more scales apparently, so all's well that ends well, I suppose. [Daphne, of course, didn't mention the going evil and experimenting on other people to figure it out part.]

[Mohinder]

[spongetastic.livejournal.com]

Mm, right. [and Peter is very reluctant to mention that, too] Still, maybe it would be better if we don't mess with it while we're here.

[Peter]

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

[It would probably shock Mohinder a great deal.] ...I hadn't really planned on it. I mean, it would seem to be a somewhat pointless endeavor. [really. even if he is terribly curious now as to how he did it]

[Mohinder]

[spongetastic.livejournal.com]

Even if you could find a way to get it working here, whenever we left it'd be like it never happened. So... yeah.

[Peter]

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

Exactly. Though, I have to admit, it would make for a fascinating way to pass the time. Preferably without practical application and scales, but figuring out the how of it...I mean, that I do so it's extraordinary in and of itself.

[Mohinder]

[spongetastic.livejournal.com]

It must have taken a lot of hard work, to get as far as you did.

[Peter]

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

I'm sure it did. I mean, I wasn't even thinking about it, not seriously, before I was brought here, so...I'm a bit stunned, really.

[Mohinder]

[spongetastic.livejournal.com]

I guess a lot changes for all of us back home.

[Peter]

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

So it would seem. [is really very "wtf" over giving himself an ability]

[Mohinder]

[spongetastic.livejournal.com]

[Peter doesn't know what to say here. He'd take his powers back in an instant if he could. so, he lets out a little sigh] Be careful when you're flying. When I had my ability, the castle liked returning gravity to me at the worst possible times.

[Peter]

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

[isn't sure why he sounds so sad about it, really, without knowing the bits that are worse than scales] I'm staying inside for just that reason. It might hurt to fall, but it shouldn't be too damaging...

[Mohinder]

[spongetastic.livejournal.com]

Probably a good idea. ...I should do that too.

[Peter]

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

Most likely...you wouldn't want to fall again or get hurt.

[Mohinder]

[spongetastic.livejournal.com]

I'll be more careful. I wouldn't want to make Adam worry...

[Peter]

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

...Of course not. Did I read somewhere that he's currently a...kitten? [trying so hard not to laugh]

[Mohinder]

[spongetastic.livejournal.com]

Mhm, for a little while. But he'll be back soon.

[Peter]

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

Oh, I've no doubt.
