((Oh, I got the point that Leet was holding Uber back, but I never saw that about his power.
It just always seemed kind of a subversion of Worm's (supposed) theme of 'you/your powers may suck but you can still kick ass'.
This theme is admittedly violated and left crying in a corner by the main character, but whatever.))

Except that when Leet died Uber basically had no purpose in life and just kinda wandered around without direction.

Cause below all the superpower stuff, the guys are friends, man.

man, thinking about those two reminds me of a short fic where Taylor got a 'can fix anything' tinker shard and became 'Haxx'.

'Uh.... huh? The only name I mentioned was my own... this girl has a screw-loose or two doesn't she? Though she seems like a good girl at heart. I guess going along with what she's saying is easier then explaining everything properly...' Lucky thinks after hearing what Violent said. He thinks a little while before coming up with something. "Well nice to meet you Violent. I don't really get what all you're saying but if your here to stop 'Evil' then that's good enough for me. Evil is a being with many bodies and in order to stop it we have to either convince each of it's bodies to stop being bad or as a resort kill the body. One at a time. And chances are high that some of these people are actually one of the bodies of Evil! Though before doing that we should find other people like us who wants to stop Evil to improve our chances of wiping out evil from this dimension! Got all that Violent?"

((Well, there's a little of that, too.
And I'm not sure how much Taylor "violate and le[aves the theme] crying in a corner," though. Yes,

Besides, "bug control" is a pretty pathetic power...unless you use it right.))

That doesn't make Tattletale's statement any less true. If anything, it sort of rubs it in. If Uber had never met Leet, he never would have entered that purposeless phase.

((No, her power even as it is in the start of the story is one of the most powerful in the setting. People just downplay it as 'controls bugs' when it's really 'has complete control of every life form that could be construed as a bug in a 2-block radius. She can also see through their eyes, hear through them, speak through them, and direct them to do whatever she wants with perfect control. She can control an unlimited amount of bugs in her radius with little to no strain, giving her vastly augmented reflexes, ridiculous sensory abilities, the ability to kill almost anyone within her range with no trouble at all, and she can focus on many different things at once due to being able to control each bug individually and not explode from the sensory feedback'. It's very much a story breaker power.))

((1. "VASTLY improved reflexes"? No. Really, her reflexes are only improved a little. Tattletale's would be way better. Probably Regent's, too, if he worked on it--remember his nervous-system-sense thing?
2. She has to work to get the bugs' senses--other than touch and "I exist!"--to be useful.
3. Yes, she can kill people with them...if she uses the power right.
4. So what if Taylor can control krill, slugs, and earthworms? She almost never controls anything except spiders and various winged insects. Other stuff just isn't useful and/or common.))

I advise you guys take it to the derail thread or just continue via PM or something. I for one don't want you guys to have a full-blown debate about Wyrm or whatever it is here and have it keep saying someone posted in my Unread Replies...thingy.))

...whew. One thread checked, and I don't think my week-long absence caused me to miss anything here. Still on the waitlist, so can't have spawned and died. 41 threads to go...
