 WHO: Viti, Tenma, and Ken. 
WHAT: Viti using his power and science to enhance his teammates' powers
WHERE: A chemistry lab
WHEN: November 1st, 6:00 pm and 7:00 pm
WARNING(S): None

Viti sat on a lab counter, next to a bunsen burner, and collection of beakers, his feet dangling far from the floor. He eyes peered up at the clock. He was sure Tenma would be joining him soon. His teams' faculty adviser was still recovering, but he and his teammates, could still take time to enhance themselves. At some point Viti wanted to train with them all at once. But not tonight. Tonight he wanted to meet with them individually, go over each of their powers. He hoped to meet Tenma at 6:00 pm, and Ken at 7:00pm, 

He had very big plans for them both. Very big.

Tenma went through a lot of emotions. He was trying to keep regret out as he trekked to the chemistry lab where Viti texted him to meet him. He tried to remind himself that had been just as rambunctious and--well he was never that unaware of people's feelings. He wasn't even that much older...

Still, it wasn't like him to outright reject anyone, no matter what they were like. It was rather jarring that it had crossed his mind, but he was determined to quash that. It'll work out somehow, it'll work out somehow...

Tenma knocked on the door to the chemistry lab. It was game time.

Viti raised his gaze at the door knock. He jumped down and marched to open the door. He smiled when he saw Tenma.

"Ah glad you made it." Viti marched to the counter. He picked up a glass beaker, and threw it to Tenma.

"Catch."

[soccerwhisperer]

"Uwaa--!?"

Tenma fumbled it, nearly dropping it, but catching it just before it hit the ground and shattered into a million tiny and sharp pieces with his telepathy.

"D--Don't throw glass!"

[griot]

"Excellent!" Viti complimented, his eyes focused on the levitating glass.

For once Viti stood upright, with his chest proudly out.

"You caught the glass with your telepathy instead of your hands. Surely, if you use your power for everything that your hands do then you will become proficient with it."

Viti began to march around Tenma, like an inspecting drill sargent, pleased with a cadet.

"Still..." Viti suddenly stopped. "We are not here just for training. I want to use my power to enhance yours, but first I need you to tell me what you know about it."

[soccerwhisperer]

He fumbled with his hands first though, he wanted to point out, but bit back his comment.

"I don't want to rely too much on my powers." He said after deliberation. Sure, Viti may have a point about using his powers to the point of proficiency, but he liked to move. He put the beaker on a nearby table before continuing.

"I move things with my mind?" He tried to explain. It wasn't something he fully understood either, and less in English. "I can make illusions too, I think by making the person think that it's there."

[griot]

"You think hmm? Well my power might be just what you need to know for sure."

Viti spun in order to be in front of Tenma, but his smile started to fade.

"I have the power to pull facts out of the air, about anything. It's why I was so useful when I was working the lab. Using this power I can know things about that you don't know yourself, but there's a downside."

Viti pushed his glasses up his nose.

"Once I activate my power I don't have full control. I know it will find facts about you, because, I am interacting with you, but it very well might pick up some secrets about you that you may not want me to know. On the other hand, it can help you use your power to full potential."

Viti took a deep breath.

"So, do you want to take the risk?"

[soccerwhisperer]

"Ha?"

Pull... facts... out of... the air...

Just what kind of power was that!?

He heard of a student at this very school long ago who could instantly learn all the knowledge of a person they touched, but that was like a mental connection. Tenma couldn't fathom what Viti was even communicating with.

"Do you need to touch me to use this power?" He managed to ask, trying and failing to wrap his head around how it would even work.

[griot]

Viti shook his head. "No, but I just to interact with you somehow to activate a filter, otherwise the information my mind takes in is random. If your curious I can tell you more later, but for now I am more concerned with learning about your power. May I?"
