Alright, I won't waste anyone's time with pointless questions about how or why we got here, but there are a couple of things I'm looking for information about:

1. How many minors and noncombatants are aboard this station? Note, these are separate categories. I don't care how powerful or skilled you are; if you're under twenty, I consider you a member of the former.

2. It'll be helpful for us to have an idea of each other's Quirks. I'm not under the illusion that all of us have reason to trust each other or cooperate, but presumably none of us want to be here, so. If you're willing to provide information on any abilities you might have that could be considered "supernatural" in any way, I intend to compile it for our collective use.

1. Uh.....
When you say noncombatant, do you mean like REALLY can't fight, or just haven't actually done military training stuff?

2. Are quirks like magic power things?
Wait, sorry.
Are Quirks* like magic power things?

apologies, i lost this notif

[eraserdad]

1. I mean, you can't defend yourself in a situation where we might be under attack.

2. Quirks where I'm from specifically are inherent to our physiology, but "magic" is fine for my purposes I'm asking.

no worries

[dumbstruck]

1. From... anything, or like normal people who don't have weapons?

2. Got it!
...
Yeah, I don't have that.

[eraserdad]

1. Let's put it another way. If potential assailants appeared and you couldn't immediately ascertain whether they were armed or not, would you engage, or would you seek cover?

2. Noted.

[dumbstruck]

...
Ok, so I guess I'm probably a noncombatant.

[eraserdad]

Right. What's your name?

[dumbstruck]

Hyunseok Choi.
Am I being added to some kind of list?

[eraserdad]

No.
It's just so I can find you if you're in trouble and need help down the line.

[He takes his heroic duties v. seriously ok!!]

[dumbstruck]

Ok, well that's not so bad then.
Hey, are there a lot of people like me? Who can't fight.

[eraserdad]

There's been a few, so far.
Possibly more who don't want to identify themselves.

[dumbstruck]

Yeah, probably because it sounds really dumb to admit you're kind of useless.

[eraserdad]

Being unable to fight doesn't imply uselessness.

[Recovery Girl has one of the most valuable Quirks in the country, back home, and she's certainly not someone who ought to be on the front lines at any point.]

[dumbstruck]

I guess not, but it feels kind of useless if someone attacked us.

[eraserdad]

Power only goes so far. If I were to be impaled in a fight, for instance, I wouldn't be particularly useful in saving myself.

[dumbstruck]

Well yeah, but I don't think most people would in that case!

[eraserdad]

The point is, someone with medical expertise or healing abilities would be essential to survival in that situation. Someone who would otherwise need to be protected. Similarly for those with other talents.

[dumbstruck]

I don't actually know anything about healing or medicine either though, so I still kind of feel like I'm admitting to being useless.

[eraserdad]

You're only useless if you think you are.

[If a text could sound impatient, tbh.]

[dumbstruck]

I'm not actually sure that's how that works.
