[Sit back Sokka, it's time for an agitated Allen rant because he is so mad right now.]
They're a damn shapeshifter. They were pretending to be my best friend while asking for powers. I knew right away it wasn't her, but her new boyfriend didn't! Oh no! Instead he decided to go check on her in person, so I had to go after his stupid arse before he got himself hurt. I found them luckily, so did the real Ino, right before they were about to bloody kiss! Ino was so angry, she tried to knife the shapeshifter!
And you know what happened next? Her boyfriend still insisted we help the face stealer! Can you believe that?!
[Sokka listens and Allen's agitation just feeds into his own. He's never had powers himself, of course, and he's honestly never wanted them. But the idea of just...giving up something so important, so intrinsic to your being. He imagines it'd be like hacking off his sword arm. ]
...Wow, did Atroma just pump a load of stupid into some people's breakfast one morning? Is that what happened? Because why would anyone think that would be a good idea.
Ugh I can't believe he's a creepy shapeshifter. That's so skeevy. And he got his skeevy hands on my sister.
[Speaking as someone whose actually lost his arm once - yep, that's a pretty adept analogy.]
I don't know. I know Tadashi's a little bit sheltered, but I thought Katara at least would know better.
[aarrrgh gosh girl WHAT WERE YOU DOING]
Anyway, Ino's boyfriend doesn't actually have any powers himself, so he wanted to go find someone to offer their powers. I ended up offering my sensing ability instead before he did that, just in case this shapeshifter wasn't lying somehow.
It's a harmless ability, but I thought you should know. [Plus okay, I wanted to rant because THIS WAS DUMB!!!]
Really? I had no idea I have the ability to say no! Why didn't I think of that?
[He gives a huff. Right, tone down the sass now]
If I'd said no, then it would've been someone else who got their powers taken, someone with possibly more dangerous powers or needs them more than I do. It's not like I knew they were grabbing other people's powers too.
Besides, in a few days I hope they'll have more than enough inclination to return it to me.
If someone can grab people's powers, and are doing that, it's usually a safe bet that they're doing it to more than one person. [Trust with these kinds of people? He has none.]
I know. I don't like power stealers either. But if there some chance they were telling the truth...
[Then refusing to help could have led to someone's death. As much as he misses his eye, misses his connection to Mana and is really irritated at this whole situation....he knows the pain of that being on his conscience would be so much worse.]
Well yes, of course. If they take and try to use my weapon, it'd make a crater out of them. So I hope they're wise enough to have listened to me and not try that.
[Perhaps it's because the other Exorcists always treated him like a little brother, or perhaps it's because he was a baby brother in his previous life as a Noah. Either way, his previous annoyance seems to give way for joy about sharing something SO GROSS that only a younger sibling would have]
Oh it's completely gross! It's when your innards and tissues start bulging out of places they shouldn't!

[...Wait.]
You talked to him? This...whoever the heck he is?

[He makes a dissatisfied sound. ] When he turns on us with all the stolen powers he's got, you mean?

Maybe. I'll figure out something.

Just...be careful, okay?

I will be! It's not like they can take all my powers!

no subject
All sorts of reasons! Don't worry, most of the time it's treatable! Still, I don't recommend it - they can be quite painful!
no subject
Yeah. Making a note to avoid that forever.
