beam me up, scotty

Sometimes life takes hold of one, carries the body along, accomplishes one's history, and yet is not real, but leaves oneself as it were slurred over.

“I think you’re underestimating the human mind.”  Elijah replied, leaning forward in his chair.  “Sure, it’s easy to convince a person of something, but to truly manipulate them to be completely obedient is something complicated and, frankly, inhumane…  The same can be said for Seaworld.  There’s a reason that people petition to release the animals.”  He shrugged.  “But who knows, I suppose anything is possible.”

“Think of the way that people on any media are easily, completely manipulated by what they see because they have no penchant for deeper thought. No want to look into what they see, taking a headline and running with it as if it is fact. Is it really underestimating the human mind when it’s blatant with how we see people become obsessed with something so small to feel validation by their peers, or even strangers?” Fraser shrugged, leaning back in his chair in a relaxed manner. 

“Seaworld fucking sucks, but it’s a difficult situation especially for the ones who were raised in captivity because they don’t have the resources to survive in the wild.. They should be put in a sanctuary.”

“yeah well, your face is annoying.” she said rolling her eyes slightly. “and you’re right, you do have a very dumb face.” she said as she arched a brow up at him talking to him almost as if she was his trainee again but she wasn’t and they were older now even if the history they had was a bit messed up. “and if i remember correctly, letting you of all people train me was a mistake now if you excuse me i have other people to see.” that was a lie, it was just a cover-up. she was just getting already annoyed on talking to fraser. “you know you don’t need to portal me to places when i can fly, right? i have flight. that’s my power. sometimes it’s like you forget that. i don’t need your damn help anymore.” her voice was bitter and almost a tinge of hurt towards the end. 

Fraser was quiet for a few beats, generally not a good thing for the overly happy man to be. There were parts to him that could get dark, could get angry, but it was a quiet resolve that rolled over like a dark cloud over the atmosphere of a conversation. “Then, fine, go fly to some place and stop bitching to other people about how awful your life is, that you never get a chance to have a break. Gain some accountability for your actions and grow the fuck up, especially when in contact with the trainees.” With that he turned to the trainees to dismiss them, that they had the rest of the day until their nightly training lessons before going to exit the room himself after they had.

Yoona couldn’t contain her laughter as she wondered which other trainers were off getting high on their own time. “Got it. Drugs makes documentaries more interesting. Noted.” She shook her head with a smile. “Wait, will this seriously be a thing? I mean I’m down if it means taking a field trip away from here.”

“Weed and documentaries. I think the other types of drugs would prove not to be a very fun time because of the whole paranoia that comes with some of them, the hallucinations... Although, mushrooms might be fun doing that, but yeah, if ya do it, stick to weed.” 

Fraser shook his head with a smile, knowing he was about to dash her dolphin dreams. “No... It’s not going to happen, Yoona.”

“yes but sometimes it might come of as aggressively n- n- n- nice.” he said arching a brow up at him with an amused smile on his lips as he couldn’t help but roll his eyes slightly and nudged his elbow back. “i’m just saying, it’s weird being this optimistic a- a- all the time.” he said with a shrug as he ran his hand through his hair. though as fraser talked about being a wingman of some sort drake’s eyes widened slightly and bit the bottom of his lips. now, this was definitely starting to sound like a ridiculous idea. “i- i- i- are you sure that’s a good idea?” drake asked blinking at him a couple times. he was starting to doubt his own idea. why does drake do stupid stuff like this? he never seems to go through with anything– yet another one of his bad habits. “i- i- i- i- i- don’t know we should bring some others if we go at least, like ones we can trust and what not.”

Fraser laughed and rubbed his face up and down with a shrug. “Am I supposed to be some kind of pessimistic entity that is in an already inherently negative place with the way every single person comes here views it? Am I to fall into that mold like everyone else? No, I choose to be happy, choose to view things positively and try not to let the dark mud wrap around my mind.” He rested his arms on the table and flopped his head against them with a huffed out sigh. 

“Nah, just you and me, out in the world, learning through flooding you with the experience. You sit and you wonder in what way your power could be useful is that empathy goes both ways. If you gain control over feeling others emotions you may be able to learn to manipulate their emotions, calm them down at your own volition. You just have to try, gotta get used to being a person, not someone ruled by their powers.”

oh yeah buddy i registered for my classes and i got into the entirety of the schedule i wanted for the fIRST TIME AS AN UPPERCLASSMEN BC EVERY TIME BEFORE MY ADVISER FUCKED SHIT UP FOR ME

It was probably clear Yoona knew nothing about dolphins as her expression was blank the entire time. She was interested, though, as she nodded along to what he believed. “You actually watched a dolphin documentary?” Yoona raised a brow. “I’ll look up some waterproof markers too.” Yoona shrugged. “I mean something has to work, right? Oh no, extensive research sounds really hard and boring. Can’t you just do the work and I’ll tag along to look at the dolphins?”

“Watching documentaries high is one of my favorite past times, so yes, I probably have. I also watched one about penguins, it’s... All great and awesome all the time, but that could be the drugs talking.” Fraser simply shrugged, knowing that he shouldn’t support that kind of behavior in the trainees, but hey, who the fuck was he to judge if somebody followed in his high documentary watching footsteps? 

“Nope, we gotta do series of tests, and intense research from peer reviewed journal articles that look at the entirety of dolphin dynamics. To come on the field trip, ya gotta do the work and partake.”

“my god that explains so much.” she flashed him a grin over her shoulder. the bitterness that came with thinking of her life before the academy had since faded with time, so kell was rather unpleasantly surprised to feel its familiar sting. her fists flexed for a moment at her side and relaxed.

“yeah, well, i’m pretty sure the only thing we missed out on were shitty parties and awkward graduation photos.” she was careful to keep her voice steady, but couldn’t help the mind wandering. “hard pass from me, thanks.”

Fraser noticed the intonations of her discomfort with the topic of conversation, glancing down as her fists flexed then relaxed before looking up at her. Always a kind smile ever present on his face, especially around Kell because he knew how she had acted when she first came to Sunnyside, knowing she had a bright future that had been cast aside because of the paradigm that came with being a super and the weight it held in society. Sometimes wonder if those who were not’s awe coming from fear rather than admiration. 

“Yeah... Who wants to wear those stupid hats, anyhow?” He left a pause after that question, lips pursed for a moment. “But, Kell, if you wanted to... Why don’t you take classes at a university?” tone even and gentle, glancing over at her. “You know that I’d be more than happy to help you portal over there and back... It’s not easy having missed out on things you wished you hadn’t, but you still can be a part of it if you want.”

“see, the way i think of it, our lore is made because of our powers. like i didn’t get all these tattoos because i love being stabbed with a needle. nah, i want to have useful shit to animate. it’s ‘cos we want to justify our powers, you know? the lore builds around it.”

“So, what you’re saying is, there is someone who has the ability to talk to dolphins, but has not came and specifically talked to me about my dolphin riding dreams? Frankly, I’m offended and I am going to make wanted posters,” Fraser said in all seriousness, but that never lasted long because two seconds later he was already smiling, shaking his head because it obviously wasn’t serious at all. Fraser ‘Shoot The Shit’ Hartman. 

He tapped his chin, pointing at some of the ink. “I’ve had you pegged all wrong, thinking that you just had a needle fetish with all these sick tats. But really, so I should go around making statements with my portal creation shit to make some kind of... social impact? We already do that, the purpose of our powers is to help the public, yanno?”

“what are we in a hallmark commercial or something?” he asked with a small laugh but his voice was still soft. the usual softness of his voice and it was almost welcoming despite the fact that drake didn’t really like talking to people to much. but fraser was someone he actually oddly enjoyed being around even if he could be a bit intimidating at times. “i could just say that you’re a friend or s- s- s- something. maybe i look young for my age.” drake said with a shrug. he didn’t really see the big deal, though he knew that people might question him when he’s wearing gloves and he stared down at his gloved hands. “d- d- d- do you think this is a stupid idea? this is probably a stupid idea. no yeah, you’re right it’s probably going to be hard if ig- g- g- go.” he said laughing a bit trying to talk himself out of the dumb idea that he brought up. 

“The velvet Hallmark glove is nestled right up my ass, making me parrot their very ways. It’s fuzzy, strangely warm. Everyone should try it, being sappy and looking at the brighter side of life is sometimes a good thing.” Fraser playfully nudged the other with his elbow, giving him a warm, comforting smile. 

“No, no, they gotta know I’m the weird dad friend, to make it completely and utterly clear I am going to be wearing a hawaiian shirt with khaki shorts that are at mid thigh. Showing all of the glory of the pasty, white man thigh so that I can truly and easily chat up the ladies, who wouldn’t want a piece of that?” he questioned, faux serious with his eyebrows raised and mouth set in a line, but then he laughed. The entirety of his face lighting up with warmth. “We should go, it would be a good experience of control for you.” 

[fraserhartman]

Yoona only shrugged at his remark and merely brushed it off. He sounds just like a few of her cousins. “They may though.” She said in a singy-song voice. “I think sharpie is waterproof but I don’t know.” She giggled. “You think maybe they have different markings or so? Even twins? What about triplets?” Yoona asked thinking about it. “We should take a field trip to see some dolphins.”

“I feel like dolphins are more altruistic, kinda pack oriented and wanna help each other than help themselves... I dunno, I watched one of those dolphin documentaries really high, so it could have also been the one about orcas called black whale, or black fin, or... black fish. I can’t remember, but it was fucking cool.” Did Fraser ever remember what he watched high? No. Did he get high often? At least once a week. 

“We will have to do some tests to see if sharpie will work under water, but yeah... I feel like they gotta look different in some way. Can’t just all be grey trash bags, yanno? We are going to have to do some extensive dolphin research before we go on this dolphin field trip.”

“no but you were giving me a look, y’know, the look you always give me.” she said using her hands to talk of course. she was always the type that used her hands to speak. it was always a bad habit of hers. “of course i’m right. i’m always right.” shut up elle, she thought to herself. god, she was annoying. “it’s like the kids here have never had parents before to fucking discipline them, what, we’re supposed to be their parents now? are we just babysitters with magical powers? we shouldn’t have to babysit them all the damn time, we have lives too.” that was a lie, elle hasn’t had fun in forever it seemed like.

“The look I always give you is just my face. My face, the face that is the faciest of all faces that quite usually has a very dumb look on it because I have a very dumb face.” Fraser, a bit exasperated in his speech, actually had a look on his face of complete and utter disbelief, most obviously about to say something that was going to annoy the shit out of Elle. 

“Elle, you never leave this compound even when you have the chance, and yes, some of these kids do not come from a background where mom makes apple fucking pies every Sunday morning. Please don’t even begin to start saying anything  because if I remember correctly, I was teaching you for a few years, hot shot.” Fraser crossed his arms, eyebrows raised as he tapped his foot in the most dad, stern way possible as if he was talking to one of the trainees. “You want me to portal you to some resort beach for the weekend, or something? Otherwise, suck up and buck up, and realize these trainees are people, not cogs in a machine to fit our mold.” 

[fraserhartman]

“is this drivel supposed to be entertaining, or are you simply bursting out with the random thoughts that plague your mind?” she asked, tilting her head to the right side as she leaned against the wall in one of the lounges that was available to students and staff. she had come there to read a vonnegut novel, and didn’t take being disturbed lightly. 

at the reqiest for aquaman she snorted, “this is real life, fraser. not a fairytale.” she shot back, not looking up from her book. “offensive, he says,” she mused, smirking a bit and shaking her head. “we should be grateful of any power that we may have.” she told him in her best chastising voice. “even if they may be a complete bitch to deal with sometimes,” she muttered, her eyes refocusing on the text in her lap. 

“The random thoughts that plague my mind are some of the most entertaining in light of the brooding teens and early twenty-year old’s who make their way into the academy, thinking all of life is something to be detested because you have a power.” The words were even coming out of his mouth, eyebrows raised as he looked over at her, smiling a little to indicate he was teasing at her overall attitude toward others. Something he was used to, so he wasn’t offended in the least. 

Fraser ran his fingers through his hair, mussing it up out of boredom. “Yes, grateful for our powers, not a fairytale, but it’s completely realistic for someone to be able to talk to dolphins. I want to befriend them, have them let me surfboard on a dolphin, but I am more than happy with my power.” Fraser created a portal around her Vonnegut novel, having to drop into his lap with a childish grin on his face. “Couldn’t do fun, annoying things like this.”

Kell cut a path through the academy, careful to keep pace with Fraser. She smirked at him over her shoulder and cocked her head slightly to the side. “When did you graduate to high school again? 1976?” Maybe it wasn’t fair to poke fun at one of the truly veteran Supers – what where the rest of them, besides children playing in costumes? – but, Kell supposed, if anyone could match her sarcasm blow for blow it would be Fraser.

“For my prodigal two year-old self? Graduating high school so early? Of course! I was smoking weed with my history teacher at 7 months, always was an old soul. Although, maybe that was a foster parent and not a history teacher smoking with me at 7 months...” Fraser tapped his chin to speculate on the thought, but broke into a smile to show her he was kidding. 

“If you actually want to know, I finished high school in ‘92, but more so the lines of a GED because of the whole super thing, feel like we kinda all got that instead of the proper last month of high school shit.”
