"You wound my feelings, Ha-eun."

"I'm sorry, do you not have a sausage?"

"Crass."

"You're one to talk."

Haru snickers and waves at the new folks. Fistbumps, which as he has asserted should be standard?

People are happy to fistbump! Compatibility continues to have some variance but averages low.

Ain't that always the way.

"So what are your powers? Kang Jaeha-shi," because she can be talked down from -nim but she agrees that going without altogether is a bit much, "is psychic...?"

"I can completely shield someone's mind from external influence, and erase any that exists in its entirety. I can also project immersive illusions, and not even monsters are immune to those. Or, at least, there exist some monsters that aren't, I can't rule out the possibility that some are."

"I heard something about Nightmare."

"Yes, my shielding and influence erasure work on Nightmare victims, too."

...is he being humble or something? Seungjoo is pretty sure people wouldn't talk about him and Nightmare together so much if it were just that, lots of psychic espers can do that. 

He'll Google it later.

Yes, he is.

"And Suwan Haru-shi?"

"I can turn selectively imperceptible. If you have exotic sensory powers don't try to use them on me, it won't work and I'll get random little upticks of backlash till I figure out who's being rude - I can let them through but by default I go around observable by normal channels to humans and not at all to monsters and to dungeons themselves. I can at greater expense also fly, and I am looking forward to reliably having a high-bandwidth backlash clearance mechanism so I can ever do that for fun instead of just to get over pit traps and stuff."

...selectively, you say.

"You know," says Ha-eun, leaning back over from her conversation with her friends after overhearing Haru's power description, "I went to a dungeon that had that power, once. You couldn't see its portal or its monsters and if you went in it was pitch black. Pain in the ass to clear."

...wtf.

"Please forgive her, she has a habit of making up stories about her work."

"It's not made up! It was really hard!"

"Come on, that one was weak. You usually put more effort into making your stories believable."

Pout.

"Well, I tried."

"Well now I want to know who'd win if there were a dungeon like that and I got into a fight with it."

"Probably whoever could tank more backlash."

"Dungeons don't have backlashes."
