“Yep. Pewter. My mom’s from Scadrial, my dad from Roshar. I have a sister too, but I haven’t seen her in years. What’s an Epic?”

"Epics were people who got random powers with no explanation. They did lots of bad things.... It seemed only bad people got powers....."

“You aren’t a bad person.” I hope. “What’s your power?”

Freyja went outside the lair to procure some coffee and on the way she ran into someone familiar. "Eh? Jacien? Hey what are you doing round these parts?" Asked Freyja.

 "I wasn't strong enough to be evil." Sam whispered. "My powers aren't flashy like Bella's. I'm like a nicrobust. I take people's strength in their powers and transfer it to someone else. It only works with women." She finished with a smile.

Nael warmly smiled back. “What about your family? What are they like?”

@Ark1002 Is there any specific direction this thread is supposed to be going? Is the gang just a worldbuilding detail?

 "My mom and brother died in a accident. My father became violent in his grief and became an alcoholic. I believe he hated me. I'm a lot like my mom and I guess I reminded him too much of her. When I got my power, I left him." Sam shook her head. "But really! Enough about me. What about you? You said you haven't talked to them in a couple of years?"

“Yeah. I left Scadrial when I was 17 with my dad. My mom didn’t want to come, and she kept my sister. I haven’t seen em since.”

There was something about Sam that Nael was drawn to. In all his life, he’d never met someone who seemed genuinely interested in him. And he was interested in her.

 "Is your dad still in Alleycity?"

“Is that where I am? He’s on Roshar. Kal, the kandra, was the one who brought me here.”

“I never was. He posed as my friend for a while, and being on Roshar I didn’t think much of it. And the Shardblade?” He summoned it, setting it beside them. “I found it.

”Honestly, I still have no idea where I am. Kal just kind of dropped me in here...but at least I have you to show me around.” He leaned in.

Sam sat up. She pulled one of her knives out of her sleeve and rolled it across her knuckles. "You know the thing I like most about you is that you don't try to move too fast." She said, pretending she hadn't seen him.

"I'm not immortal."

Mike exclaimed and then he understood.

"I can't shapeshift. Well, I can, but not like you think. It's complicated."

He pressed a hand against his chest and stared at the floor.

"I told you they like to do experiments."

Redatrick leaned against the doorframe, in thought. Bloody magics. For him, experimenting meant Jarret trying to predict how loud his victims would scream, but here, it was this?

“They can...” He didn’t know how to put it, so he just gestured to Mike. “They can change you like that?” Suddenly the passion against the people in the Alleyverse seemed to make sense.

“I didn’t know it was possible to do that.” How would they even do that?

Mike only pushed his shirt up, exposing the spikes.

"They can."

He let his shirt fall down again.

"I have all these animals living in my head, they take over sometimes, change me, they want to be in control, but it's my body, I won't let them."

He sounded desperate then shook his head.

"Forget it. Can't be changed anyways."

It took a while for Redatrick to notice the boy was stabbed, with some sort of railroad spike? With multiple spikes. But... he wasn’t dead. Or bleeding, for that matter. Redatrick was going to suggest a doctor, but the kid had said it couldn’t be changed. And one thing was for certain, he was not a Faceless Immortal. Maybe an attempt to replicate one? Was that even possible?

“That’s... not good,” he found himself saying. His glasses slid to his nose, and he pushed them up again. “Should we go back to the gang?”

Side note, I think Mike and Alask would get along, what with foreign things trying to control them.

Mike nodded.

"Sure."

He stepped out of the room and looked around to see who was still there.

You're right. Maybe they'll meet one day. I have no real plan for Mike yet, apart from where he was too much fun to leave him an NPC.

“Now, to see if people recognise me,” Redatrick said, walking towards Bella. “Do you think she’ll notice?”

When he finally arrived to Bella, he tried his best to cover up his Roughs accent and pushed his glasses up. “Hello, madame,” he said. Would she notice him? If she did, there was no chance his friends wouldn’t.

I do have an eventual plan for the thread, right now in just getting the gang together.

Bella stood up, then shouted. Her patience had run thin. "ALL NEW GANG MEMBERS, PLEASE COME TO ME FOR INITIATION."

Nael opened his eyes and pulled away. “Oh, yeah.” He blushed, running a hand through his hair. Idiot, he said to himself, don’t mess this up.

Jacien turned back toward Freyja.

"I was just hoping to be able to talk to Nael for a minute. Oh! I just remembered!"

He took his bag off his shoulders and rummages through it for a moment, then pulls out a tupperware with a slice of chocolate cake in it.

"I thought you might appreciate this." He said with a smile.

He then shouldered his pack. "I think your gang leader wants to get your attention. But if you guys need any help for anything, feel free to contact me."

He started to push the door open, then paused for a second.

"Oh, and also, could you do me a favor and give this to Nael?"

Jacien holds out what looked like a little disk with a gemstone on the top of it.

"It's a fabrial that if you twist the gemstone, it will light up a paired fabrial that I have. I use them to be able to stay in contact with people in the Alleyverse. Tell him to activate it if he, or Sam, or you ever need help or want to talk to me for some reason."

Freyja drooled at the sight of the chocolate slice. She took it and grabbed Jacien in a tight hug and kissed him on the cheek.

"Thank you! I'll be sure to see you soon!" Said Freyja flirtatiously and winked.

"I have to go now, I'll be in touch! Here take this!" Said Freyja.

She handed him a scented handkerchief and headed back to the base. She entered the building and walked to Bella.
