...I mean, mine just kinda thought I was dying of some sort of weird disease.
[...]
But they forgot about it.
...If it's been longer than a month, they might not even notice if you go around like that. I dunno how that works if you can disguise it normally anyway.
But this isn't about Retrospec! It's about me. Retrospec didn't just turn me into a furry devil for no reason. This... this has to be who I really am. I can't just... tell her this.
[Gar makes a noise as if he's about to say something before he bites his tongue. ...For a moment, he looks conflicted -- then drops his gaze to the ground.
[He'd have to be from a different DC universe to have heard of such a thing.]
Neither have I, but aside from the power, it checks out! [He nods along.]
Well, nothing like that. Mostly I can stick to walls, I'm weirdly acrobatic, and I can teleport... [After a beat, he scratches his head with a nervous laugh as he confesses.] Oh yeah! I'm The Bamf, by the way.

...Yeah, that's a look. I could see that working.
[...The tail shrinks away.]
Maybe I'll save the body mods for later.
...Hey. So, like... does anyone else know about you?
no subject
...Only, like, three other people. I'm trying to keep this super on the down low, you know?
no subject
['Cause it's weird and horrifying', he fills in the mental blanks. He looks faintly uncomfortable.]
...You think you'll ever just go around like that?
no subject
...It's not worth the risk. My family would kill me if they found out about this! A-and... who knows what else would happen?

And my mom's on the app too, anyway.
no subject
[super weird lady]
...Well, what's the problem with that, then? She'll understand the kinds of stuff Retrospec gets into.

He mumbles a few words after a bit.]
...I dunno, dude.
I... wish my mom would understand.
no subject
...I'm sorry man. [It's like some of his worst fears have already come true for him!]
no subject
[it's not fine
but it's not like kurt can do anything about it either]
...I mean, do whatever you feel comfortable with, dude. But I bet your mom would wanna know.
[...anyway.]
I don't remember what I'm supposed to be - do you have any idea?
no subject
I'm... not sure. [He scratches at his hair uncertainly.]
Like, I look like a devil. So I don't think that's a good sign. But in one of my memories, I did hear something about mutants too.
no subject
[just saying]
And hey, that's pretty cool. You get to have like, demon powers, right? Can you buy people's souls?
no subject

...Wait, you're the teleporting guy? Hey, you totally still jilted me out of a teleport.
no subject
no subject
[Gar squints a little.]
How can I know you were the teleporting dude? You'd better prove it to me again.
no subject
Okay, okay, here it goes... [And so he bamfs several yards away, then gives a light shrug.] Happy?
no subject
Pretty good.
But like, maybe it's just some kind of hologram again, right? You should really take me along.
[Gar smiles innocently and charmingly.]
