Canon is CW's Tomorrow People.

No.

Whatever you think you're doing? Don't. I'm not the guy you're looking for. I'm not - whoever it is you want me to be. I'm not even your species.

So take a step back. Mind your own business.

Jed down there pinged me cause Kate's from one of the older series!

[gymshoe_runner]

They don't care about that. There's like...seven or eight non-human species in this head here with me.

And they never mind their own business.

awesome!

[tomarrow]

Worth a try.

I might be picking up Stephen after the end of the season too

[gymshoe_runner]

[ She flashes a smile. ]

Only if you think your time isn't worth anything.

Oh excellent! Waiting until the end of the season probably would have been a good idea.

[tomarrow]

As long as I'm in some bizarre inter-universal transit space, my time's worth a little less.

I just like to watch and rewatch before I pick someone up.

[gymshoe_runner]

Don't sell yourself short, cause they will. But this place...however this works...

Look, it sucks. Most of these muns are pretty sadistic and I know sadistic. But being here? It ain't all bad - and it gives you a chance, a lot of them, to learn stuff you couldn't learn otherwise. It's useful.

I generally wing it, and get the details down later. So early on I tend to get details wrong ._.

[tomarrow]

Any reason I'm the recipient of your wisdom?

I play from Supernatural too so I feel you.

[gymshoe_runner]

Teleporters gotta stick together.

[tomarrow]

[ Rubs his hand over his mouth, watching her. ]

...that's not a bad reason.

[gymshoe_runner]

[ She laughs a little, more nervous reflex than anything. ]

We're different. Like, the guy in here who knows this stuff calls it "parallel evolution across the multiverse" - he's pretty smart so, he's probably right.

Way I understands what he says, you and me, we're like evolutionary cousins. Pretty much the same, but not totally. They call us Tomorrow People too, but it never really mattered to me, community labels don't matter much if you're on your own for a while.

[tomarrow]

[ It makes him pay attention to her more. Cousins is better than nothing at all. ]

You got the three Ts?

[gymshoe_runner]

[ After being, from her point of view, abandoned by her family - Kate's more wary. But she does miss her brothers. ]

Two of 'em. I'm not telekinetic and my telepathy isn't really strong, or it's more subtle? But I can do something else that's pretty cool.

[tomarrow]

Let me guess.

Stopping time?

[ Just an instinct. If it's not true, he'd be interested to hear what else there is. ]

[gymshoe_runner]

No but that would make my life so much easier. So much easier, that's not fair. Got any bumps or bruises?

[ It's a neat trick. One she doesn't let people who are at least similar to her know about. ]

[tomarrow]

I've always got bumps and bruises.

[ Here, let him roll up his sleeve. Got a nice nasty one up by his elbow. ]

[gymshoe_runner]

It's the life.

[ She reaches over, hand just above his skin. Her hand glow orange and within seconds, the bruise - and any other damage in the area - disappears. ]

Useful, huh?

[tomarrow]

[ He lets out a soft whistle. Probes the area with his fingers, making sure the damage is healed beyond just the surface. ]

Useful and impressive.

Our kind of Tomorrow People or not, you'd have a place with us. Not just because of this.

[gymshoe_runner]

[ Considering they can heal the dead it's just a small showing. ]

Thank you. I got another mouth to feel, full disclosure.

[ It's a sticking point. ]

But it might be nice to have a place to belong. It's been a while.

[tomarrow]

It's not much, but we got ten or so. Another couple mouths - it's not a problem.

[gymshoe_runner]

Well, this one is three. I have to be careful, it's not just about me.

[ She's nineteen, don't do the math. ]

You can see why I to stay under the radar though. I don't want to end up chained to a lab, healing what they cut apart.

[tomarrow]

Why do you think we stick together?

The three-year-old - yours?

[ He don't judge. ]

[gymshoe_runner]

A lot of the ones I met...they still thought they could run to Mommy and Daddy and be safe.

[ ...That was bitter. Far too bitter to just be about the naivety of others she had met. ]

My little boy, yeah.

[ She's glad for it. She's used to either judgment and scone or pity. She's not sure which is worse. ]

[tomarrow]

Well, we got that kind too.

Kids got a way of bringing everyone together. It's extra trouble, but makes everyone want to go the extra mile.

...okay, that sounds a little cold-blooded, but I'd count him as a bonus, not a drawback.

[gymshoe_runner]

They get people killed.

No, I get it. Kids are helpless, they need us, to protect them, take care of them. You think about risks more, you try harder. Be more careful. And more ruthless.

[ At least, that's the effect he'd had on her. ]

[tomarrow]

[ Flinch. He's fresh from one of those people getting people killed. ]

Yeah. That's what I mean.

[gymshoe_runner]

[ She draws back at the flinch. ]

Sorry. I didn't mean to trip over something.
