[Video] [Power Plot]

[ochitashinigami]

[The video clicks on. Eric looks slightly disheveled. He looks around skittishly, and a small noise in the background, possibly just the house settling, makes him jump significantly.

A small, all-black cat wanders into the frame, purrs, and nudges Eric's elbow affectionately. It gazes up at him, love beaming in its bright yellow eyes. He blinks down on it, slightly bewildered.]

O-okay... uh... Something is going on here. This cat showed up a few days ago. I think it likes me. Does anyone own it? You can have it back if it's yours. [The cat continues to purr worshipfuly.]

And also... I keep... finding myself places. I think I'm put for now. But, I keep... moving.

Is anyone else having problems?

The cat had been here for a few days before this started. And, it has a cat's soul so... I think it's all right.

[The animal walks in front of him, lifting it's butt and rubbing it's tail in Eric's face, all the while purring adoringly.

He wrinkles his nose and pushes it away.]

You're able to see its soul?

[ochitashinigami]

Oh... uh... Well yeah. It so happens that I can.

[eyeforaneye]

Interesting ability. How did you come by a skill like that?

Re: [text]

[ochitashinigami]

Humans can't do it. You can't learn it.

[eyeforaneye]

That isn't what I asked.

Re: [text]

[ochitashinigami]

I was trained after I became a shinigami.

[eyeforaneye]

I see... Don't worry, it isn't a gift I'm willing to go that far to attain.

Re: [text]

[ochitashinigami]

You'd have to die. So.... no. I don't think so.

[eyeforaneye]

I assumed as much. [ He's sort of died before and "sort of dying" was plenty. ] Not that any of that explains the cat or teleportation.

It's not unlike when my chip was removed and I couldn't control anything.

The cat is just a cat. the only thing I don't know is why its here.

[eyeforaneye]

So it's one of your regular abilities? Some people seem to be attaining others that are unrelated.

Re: [text]

[ochitashinigami]

Yeah, i was always able to do it. Always able to control it too.

Whoever dictates what happens in this place has a strange sense of humor.

Re: [text]

[ochitashinigami]

I agree. So, I take it no one has any ideas as to what's going on then....

[text]

[eyeforaneye]

Not that I've heard. I too have regained some of my abilities; I want to know how long it will stay this way.

Re: [text]

[ochitashinigami]

Indeed.

Only some?

As for me, I can't wait for things to go back to normal.

[eyeforaneye]

I haven't attempted to test all of them.

Perhaps you may feel that way, not being in control of your powers, but I'd prefer to hold onto mine.
