Settling In

Things had been moving fast for Sengai Senyaka. First he met with Andrew Summers, head of the Genosha Consulate, and his bodyguard Giovanna Bennet, http://www.scribbld.com/users/whoholdsthewhip/318.html . He had explained his reasons for his coming then, the nature of his often difficult powers, and his own desire to to learn about the conflict between humans and mutants. Summers struck him as a good man, young perhaps, but he defintiely knew what he was talking about. He seemed like the kind of individual Sengai could see himself working under, but he wasn't going to make a hasty decision. Afterwards, Giovanna had engaged him in a sparring session in order for him to attempt to control his powers during a combat scenario. http://www.scribbld.com/users/burnwithlight/1827.html. He was pleased the progress, but knew it would still be some time before he was comfortable enough with his powers. Still, it had been a rewarding experience. He was pretty sure he could could consider Andrew and Giovanna friends, but he tried not to get too attached to the idea. Afterall, he wasn't there to make friends.

He was currently in the consulate lunchroom, sash on his shoulders. After the training session, he looked forward to simply sitting and having something to eat.

	"Well, I can tell you right now, any attempt to set him up with a girl will meet with severe disapproval from his security detail." Giovanna smiles when she says it, then her face changes. "There is something I wanted to ask you, Cassidy." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Oh, sure. How can I help?" he asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"For health and safety reasons, I'd like the basic essentials on how your suit works." No need to imply that he was trying to hide it. "Is it like your father's old suit? What are the distinctions?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Oh. That.

"Well, um...my containment suit measures the amount of sonic energy I've stored up, based on how much sound I absorb. That's what I do; I absorb sound in all of its form and convert it into sonic energy.

The rings are a vibranium alloy, but the suit itself tries to dampen as much of the sound absorption as it can. I have to be careful not to tear or rip it, as that destabilizes the containment." Cassidy tells her.

"I'm working on ways to control my power, but without the suit, I'd...be a lot worse off." Cassidy says.

He doesn't want to elaborate on just /how much/ worse off he'd be, because then he'd have to tell them about Fargo.

He can't tell them about that.

Ever.

	Gio listens. "Good to know. Thanks. Do tears tend to be noticeable, or can they sneak up on you? And how much has Xavier's taught you about defending yourself?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"I check my suit at least once a day now, but I recently had a tear I didn't notice until an issue cropped up. If you're looking, a tear is pretty noticeable, when I'm not wearing clothes to cover it." Cassidy says.

"And I've learned a little bit about how to defend myself. A friend of mine taught me before he went back to his dimension, but we didn't get very far. I know a few basic punches and a couple of restraining holds, but that's it." he says.

	"That's good," says Gio. "I have no criticism of the physical curriculum available at Xavier's, but they might not have realized you intended to associate with Genoshans, and all the added interesting matters thereby. So if you want to talk more about practice sometime, let me know." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cassidy nods and smiles. "I'd like that a lot." he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Sengai had chosen this moment to address Cassidy. "I too am an absorber, save with me it is with various forms of energy. My body can instintively sense the energy inside you, though it is somewhat unpleasant-feelings. I believe your suit is somehow blocking it. How does it work?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sound_and_fury 2011-05-14 04:18 pm UTC (link)
	Cassidy looks to Sengai. "The way it was explained to me is that my body absorbs all sound around me, all of the time. My suit both slows down the amount coming in as well as the amount going out. If I let it, my body would release the energy in all directions, the same as I absorb it." Cassidy says. "Sorry if I'm causing you any trouble." he says quietly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	whoholdsthewhip 2011-05-14 08:01 pm UTC (link)
	"No need to apologize. It's usually much worse. I believe your suit is somehow lessening the effect." Sengai assured. "My powers are difficult to control at times as well." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sound_and_fury 2011-05-14 11:58 pm UTC (link)
	"Does anything bad happen if you absorb too much energy?" Cassidy asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	whoholdsthewhip 2011-05-15 12:47 am UTC (link)
	"It is..painful. It varies in intensity depending on the amount. In its normal state, like now, it is akin to a tingle. Others..I believe you call them migraines? I sublimate the pain by creating constructs from the energy I absorb. If I keep it in too long, it manifests outward. Thankfully, I've managed to keep it contained, though the sensation is quite painful." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sound_and_fury 2011-05-15 01:34 am UTC (link)
	"Yeah, that kind of sounds like what happens to me, in a way. If I let the energy build up too long without a little release, it either pushes itself out or I start getting uncomfortable. I accidentally blew up my girlfriend's radio the other day, but I had good reason." he chuckles. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Interesting, it sounds like we have just the people here if someone wanted to do a study of absorbers. For at least a lot of energy spectrums, I could probably pull some energy off of Sengai if needed. Sonics aren't within the spectrum I can use though." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	burnwithlight 2011-05-16 04:38 am UTC (link)
	"Be careful before trying that, Andrew. Sengai absorbs a few things out of your spectrum." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	assaultnbattery 2011-05-16 04:43 am UTC (link)
	"Seeing as I have no real desire to transform, it wasn't going to be an immediate thing. Something to try and practice under controlled circumstances, perhaps." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sound_and_fury 2011-05-16 11:47 am UTC (link)
	"Wait, you absorb energy, too?" Cassidy asks Andrew. "And you transform? That's pretty cool." he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	assaultnbattery 2011-05-16 05:08 pm UTC (link)
	"Anything in the electro-magnetic spectrum, yes. Absorption lets me transform into a bigger, tougher, stronger form." He wasn't too worried about giving that information away. After all, it was largely public record to anyone who could watch the news after the Statue of Liberty incident. (Reply to this)(Parent)
