GRAVEYARD
Graveyard
Reflexively, you curl tighter. Just another minute. Just another minute of sleep is all you need, but the sun waits for no one. Wait. The sun? After many days and nights with only moonlight to guide you, your eyes snap open and your pupils contract at the light.
It's been a while, hasn't it?
Bask in this euphoria for however long it lasts, until your memory snaps back against your mind like a rubber band. Weren't you dead? No matter how you met your end, you certainly remember dying in vivid detail. The pain that corresponds to the last moment's of your life chooses then to make itself known, trying to wriggle free from your skin almost literally. That mark on your skin wasn't there before either.
Take a moment to breathe and get your bearings, and really take everything into focus. The warm rays of sun that dance upon your skin are colorful and fragmented like a kaleidoscope, the effect of being filtered through stained glass. Of all the places to wake up, it seems you're inside a church that's no stranger to you, St. Mary's Basilica. While the odds are good you've woken up with company somewhere near by, the glint of gold from the altar will likely catch your attention regardless—embedded deep in the altar stands a golden staff, two sculpted wings draped down its sides.
While some things are the same, and some things are different, there are still more questions than answers. But the inscription engraved into the roof of the ceiling of the Church, now visible in proper lighting seems rather apt: Welcome to Krakow (again).

Psychokinesis. I can move and bend objects to my will, including allowing my own body or others to fly. Can create a defense or offense attacks even by just using the air or other objects. Obviously, I can also just affect other people's bodies.
Pyrokinesis. To manifest and manipulate fire. Electrokinesis. Similarly, to manifest and control electricity.
Teleportation. Obviously to teleport, but it entails being very aware of your spatial surroundings. One can also use teleportation as a offensive and defensive tactic. Synthetic users often have very creative uses with teleportation, but I'm not one.
Hypnosis. Also explanatory, but also can create illusions. Can disguise a person, or many persons at a wide mass. If you believe what's happening to you, it can deal very real damage.
Telepathy. To know one's thoughts and intentions. Can actively translate a conversation for people without needing to know one's language.
Psychometry. To know about things from simply touching an object or a person. Can instantly know how to handle something, such as vehicles or machinery. Includes things like bio-control, where you can control your body functions, thus things like healing.
[ This was a long headache!! ]

[He appears to be thinking this over quite seriously--]
It seems that you have an overlapping ability with Sakaguchi Ango, and possibly several others. Of course he was leaping to conclusions. In terms of my conclusions, perhaps you would be useful, were you not still merely human despite everything.
[This may be bat-style approval or it may just be him taking the excuse to roast Ango from the afterlife. #teamspite]

[ Was that worth the headache? Maybe only a little bit for the spite on Dango. ]
Mine's probably better than his anyway.

But also, since I can use any of these at a given time, I have the upper hand?
no subject
[Is he just saying that to be a shit. Probably, at this point. This is apparently how these assholes do festive.]
We were speaking only of psychometry, but otherwise, I cannot see it being much of a battle.

[One's a government agent, one's the leader of a criminal organization, both are shady as fuck, what's the difference again. Actually, does this describe Ango and Hyoubu or just Ango and Dazai. The mysteries.]
Comparing usefulness over the timelines in this place is perhaps moot, however.
[Because someone kicked the bucket so fast there weren't even psychometry dick-measuring contests.]

I'm sure he mostly uses it for information gathering or something. [ And why bother with intel when you can make the Quack do it for you? ]
no subject
And what do you use it for?

[It seems somewhat reproachful, but perhaps he should have expected this approach from this guy. Ulquiorra himself is perhaps a little too straightforward to insult even his enemies with things he doesn't believe are true. Go figure?]

[Unsure if this is another case of Hyoubu just being weird and Hyoubu or if it's actually just legit condescension?? All the questions. Though it's not like he doesn't know semi-competent assholes who are also womanizers or something of that nature, so. You really just never know.]
