[Action]

It was an old habit Tachibana had picked up when he had first been training to be Garren, one that he had picked up again after demonstrating it to Mutsuki. It likely looked strange to anyone else at the batting range, him standing there with no bat or glove, eyes trained on the machine in the distance that would send the balls launching at him.

It was calming in a strange sort of way, focusing so intently on the moment that his mind went silent. No worries. No fears. No nagging doubts or feelings of failure. In that moment, it all faded to the background. The clicking grinding sound of the machinery as the arm of the launcher rose up filled his ears as he focused, eyes narrowing slightly.

With a sudden snap of action, the ball flew out, Tachibana's hand shooting out to grab it. "4!" An agile flick of the wrist turned the ball around in his hand to show off the worn number 4 on the ball. With a nod, he dropped it, eyes back on the machine as it clicked and whirred.

It wasn't action. It wasn't figuring out what he should be doing or how to fit into this new city, but it was training. It was familiar. It was something to put aside the unease and restlessness that was plaguing his mind.

...Okay, so not good. Urgh, seriously though - if they throw me outta school for setting for apparently setting the school cafeteria on fire again, I'm going to make a formal complaint! I mean, Hello!? We live in a city full of super heroes and stuff, who's to say any of the other kids here don't have some kinda weird super power that could make half a dozen hamburgers randomly explode?

Besides, it was an accident! I don't actually go out of my way to do that kind of thing.

[Hello there, Venture City! Coming to you live from her bedroom is one particular teenager trying to set up a video blog from home without getting yelled at for using her laptop when she's supposed to be grounded.]

So uh, my question for the day I guess is - let's just say you happened to find out you had some kinda weird super power...what would you do with it? Use it for the good of mankind or keep it a secret?

Enquiring minds (namely mine) wish to know!
