*Yeah, going to ignore the cursing. At least for right now.*

[Beat lightens up immediately. Chance to show off!!!!]

Watch this.

[PCHOOO PCHOOO PCHOOO. He only uses one finger, but three small soundwaves fly like bullets towards the wall, accompanied by a series of pops.]

That's the real easy stuff, obviously. I can do other stuff with 'em too.

[You sure do sound proud of yourself, Beat.]

So... you can shoot 'bullets' of air?

[...]

Okay, first, it's not air. It's sound. Sound vibrations.

And second, I can do way more than those little blips, I told you. Want to blow a guy's ears out? I can do that. Giant earthquake? I can do that too.

Wow. That's pretty powerful.

But isn't sound just the movement of air in a certain vibration?

[... ... ...]

How do you even know about that stuff anyway?

[They didn't teach that stuff to him in elementary school. Or maybe they did. And he forgot.]

Well, my Dad was a scientist, so even though he disappeared years ago, Mom still wanted me to be exposed to a bit more science than usual to see if I liked it.

I don't know if she tried it with my brother or not, but if she did than it didn't last long before she gave up.
