Mun,

I appreciate the effort of this and I would like to be with my friends, but the place you want me to go... I'm going to have to say no. It's a nice enough place and all and Robin, Zatanna, Kid Flash, and Artemis are all there, but to lose my powers even for a day... All of them...

I don't think I can do that.

It's only like that for some places. But these games can be pretty harsh in totally different ways.

[disguisedingreen]

What do you mean "in totally different ways"? I'd thought losing your powers would be the worst.

[hackingyoursensors]

No. These games and memes... some of them can affect you in bad ways. Mess with your personality, make you see illusions, stuff like that.

[disguisedingreen]

Really?! They can do that?! That's terrible! Why would they have such a thing?

[hackingyoursensors]

Because for them? It's considered fun.

[disguisedingreen]

It's not much fun for us though!

[hackingyoursensors]

Trust me, I know. It's been almost a year for me.

[disguisedingreen]

A year? That's a very long time. What kind of place are you at?

[hackingyoursensors]

An underwater prison. It's not as bad as it sounds.

[Maybe trying to reassure her a little.]

[disguisedingreen]

Underwater prison... that's where my mun wants to send me!

[Half-shocked that he's there, half-glad if she goes there, she won't be alone]

[hackingyoursensors]

Really? Normally I'd say "the more the merrier" but it is prison.

[noooted]

That would be kinda bad, wouldn't it.

[disguisedingreen]

Yes, that would be very bad. I don't- I mean I wouldn't want to go some place new like that and not have my powers.

[noooted]

Though I bet you would be amazing still, even without them. After you get used to it.

[disguisedingreen]

[She smiles] You're so sweet. Well, it is just for a day from what my mun things, the complete lack of powers, but...

[She's not sure she really wants to go into why its a problem]

[psychic_supremecy]

Is your vanity truly so important?

[disguisedingreen]

You... you are a psychic too?

It's not really vanity. I don't know what my team will think of me if they know the truth, if I'll even be allowed to stay with the team.

[psychic_supremecy]

I am.

If they are as shallow as to base judgement solely on physical appearance, they are not worth your time.

[disguisedingreen]

It's what happens on Earth. It's what happened on Mars too. You can tell what I really am?

[psychic_supremecy]

That does not make the point any less valid.

I can. It's fairly obvious to another psychic that you are hiding something, and you lack the psychic blocks to peer into specific parts of your memory.

[disguisedingreen]

[She's quiet for a long moment] I guess you are right. I hope they'd accept me but if they don't, I could have to go back to Mars. The green Martians make fun of white Martians like myself.

[psychic_supremecy]

I am an abomination even among those that would be considered my 'brethren.' However, they leave me alone. Either through fear of my power, or acceptance of my circumstance.

None have a right to force anything onto another. If that situation arises, you have the right to defend yourself.

[disguisedingreen]

I don't think you are an abomination. I'm not worried about defending myself, but my uncle and the Leaguers could make me leave if they decide they don't trust me.

[psychic_supremecy]

Think what you like, it is the truth. I was created, not born. I was molded to be a weapon to oppress others, nothing more.

Trust is irrelevant. A fragile notion of humans. You should not be bound by others in any way.

[disguisedingreen]

And are you? Is that all you do?

Well, I'm not human. It's only normal to want someone trust you, to know you can do a good job.
