I look up at the woman more seriously "When I get into....tense.. situations," I hold up my hands and look back down at them, shaking my head again. "Well, I produce fire, with my hands..." I look back up at the woman in the mirror. "I'm a freak huh?"

Erik: The booklet contains very little information and techniques that you don't already know.
Maria: "Fire, huh?" the woman says. "Here..." She takes your hands in hers. Within seconds, the fire is gone. "So what was that about being a freak?" the woman asks, laughing.

My eyes widen in surprise and I glance quickly between the woman and my hands. "Wha...." I finally keep my gaze on her. "How did you do that?!"

Maria: "You're not the only person with magic," the woman says.

"Well, thank you! Thank you very much!" I turn and start to rush back to the meeting. I look back just before exiting the bathroom. "I'm sorry for being rude but I'm absent at an important meeting. Thank you so much" I turn back and run back to the meeting room. Slowly entering and trying not to interrupt anything while sitting down and opening the booklet to read stuff that meant almost nothing to me.

Maria: The woman smiles. The booklet has many diagrams and blocks of text, but most of it just blends into the page. However, you find something scribbled in the margins of page 28.

When I see the scribbles on the margin of the page I tilt my head and try to make out the strange handwriting.

Maria: After a few minutes, you manage to make out the words "Beware the Lisp; don't trust him. Tell no one."

My eyes widen in surprise. "What the...?!" But I cover my mouth and look around, hoping no one noticed. I then start trying to think if I've met anyone with a lisp.

Maria: Nobody comes to mind. You can think of several people who stutter quite often, but other than that, nothing you can think of is related.

After realizing I know no one with a lisp I look back down at the writing and zone out into thought about this whole situation in general. The UN, what I discovered in myself, everything.

I slowly look up at Fionn raising a brow. "Why do you have to keep making assumptions? Unless you're a mind reader I highly doubt you know why anyone took any of the jobs in this place."

Everyone: "Can no one get along in this room?" the wolf demands, exasperated.
