She gets closer to the patch of roof as she approaches it - a fact that is very apparent to her. She feels oddly ... centered when she stands on it, like all of her body is in one place. And somehow all of her being in one place isn't a default aspect of her body anymore.

Did she... have a second trigger... or... Butcher into poor Nikki Carter's body... or... what...

- okay, no, simple test for this. If she wanted to do that update to her bot's algorithm for blocking advertisements she'd been postponing -

She has no idea how to do that. What if instead she continued being this patch of roof.

What the shit.

Can she be... any... other... patches of roof.

Sure, though it takes a couple of seconds to switch to a different patch of roof and there's a bit of a gap where she's no patches of roof at all. It feels odd, being no patches of roof.

IT IS NOT SUPPOSED TO FEEL ODD BEING NO PATCHES OF ROOF.

If she goes all the way to the opposite end of the roof from her patch does that do anything.

Nope, the feeling of being this new patch of roof (which is whole and unharmed) remains steady.

...kay. She's gonna go down the stairs away from her patch of roof now.

Then she will eventually approach a woman screaming at a man to get away and a man cowering and shaking and attempting to lash out if the woman gets to close.

Why are these people in the same room if they do not want to interact.

They are in the lobby of the building. The way the two of them are acting does not give the impression that they are thinking particularly clearly.

The woman notices Lorica first.

"STAY BACK!!" she screams, brandishing a particularly long shard of broken glass at her.

"I'm staying back! How about you let this guy get wherever he's trying to go, and I will exit the building altogether, and you can be by yourself."

"YOU'RE WITH HIM!!"

"No, I have no idea who he is! Sir, where are you trying to get to?"

The man edges away from her, his eyes darting around wildly.

"I don't think any of us want to be here. How about he leaves first, and then you and I can part ways, ma'am."

The man startles at.. something, it's hard to tell what, and bolts for the door.

As long as the woman doesn't chase him or anything!

The woman seems to consider but decide against it.

In that case she's going to give the guy a head start and then edge out of the building herself, eyes on the woman with the glass.

She's a block away when she feels herself straining, her patch of roof getting too far from her regular body. It would probably be more comfortable if she just used her "moving her patch of roof" muscle or something.

That's going to get so annoying!

She slows down, trying to figure out how much of an actual handicap this is.

Her range is large enough and the process of changing her anchor instinctive enough that it's not a very noticeable issue.

That being said, the moving her anchor muscle is entirely distinct from her ability to choose a new anchor.

Can she just - not have one, peel herself off the roof and not put herself down anywhere.

Yeah she can do that. Feels uncomfortable though. Like her body is entirely in her body and nowhere else.
