"Oh.  Oh."  He...slowly lets go.  "Sorry.  I, uh.  Really like not being tired."  He's still got a pretty good load on him, but it is some better.

"And I really like being emotionally uncompromised. We can finish naptime later." Is the intercom by any chance displaying some kind of notification light indicating they should use it to answer that chime?

A softly-blinking green light, yes!  Before it was solid red.

Cool. Shirt: on. Intercom: answered.

Definitely not watching that shirt be put on, no sir.

"Are you ready for the next test?  We've got the next room set up for you, whenever you are."

Fully ignorant of any awkwardly averted gazes, April answers, "Yeah sounds good."

"Yeah, I'm ready."  Will April hold hands on the way to the next test?  A very tired esper would like to know.

Oh for sure.

Then they can rack up a little extra guiding.  The next test is all about compression strength.  April, how's your grip strength?  Baseline, light, medium, and then feel free to go all-out, this tester is disposable for a reason.

At baseline she's, you know, an esper.

Light power use has her making significantly more headway. These are levels of grip strength that begin to explain how a person could mold metal like clay.

Medium power levels begin to strain the device's structural integrity.

But they said she could go all out, so...

Hey, grip strength tester, quick question.

What happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object?

No idea!  Let me know when you find one!

Crunch.

Well.  That's...not...literally unprecedented.  "Congratulations, April.  We can't officially rate you any higher than Melee 4, here, but I would be shocked if you rated anything other than 5.  Depending on your backlash efficiency, of course."

"Do you guys have any theories about what's going on here besides durability and oddly specific forces? Maybe I should get in front of one of those high speed cameras and break some more glass, or something."

Rose purses her lips.  "I want to be clear, these are just guesses.  But I think it's something about self-focused inertia manipulation, rather than strength.  At some point, I'd like to see you jump, to see if you can make yourself go further as well as not be moved."

"Yeah... I think I want to test the durability thing more, too. I want to have a better idea of what it's good for."

"We can do some of that, dear.  How are you with pressure?"

"Pressure as in...?"

Rose illustratively brings two palms together, visibly pressing them firmly into each other.

"Yeah, seems like a place to start."

Alright!  The next step is Test Chamber Nine.  In it, April will be squished at precisely measured amounts of pressure.  Unless and until she lets go of the dead man's switch, or if any of the people in this room feel remotely sketched out and slaps the e-stop, or a noise above 85 decibels happens.

Alright, April!  How do you feel under pressure?
