Ask our buddy to go and practice his abilities on animals while we meditate and recharge.

This, making sure we accompany him, both to help him practice and to avoid being alone in the house if the rangers send someone else. Also, put the steaks in the freezer, unless we like rotting meat.

Agree.

I don't think we'll be coming back, so putting the meat in the freezer might be pointless. I suggest we inspect our ally VERY carefully, he might notice it.

Bump. Sorry to my loyal fans, I've been pretty busy the last week. I should definitely be able to keep this going over the weekend though. I'll add some later today.

You mentally probe your human ally, albeit very discretely. His telepathic mind is not developed enough to detect you. He could be able to control lesser animals such as dogs or maybe even human children, but you're not sure. You doubt the rotting meat in your possession would be much of a hindrance to your digestive tract. The elk you ate hours ago seems to have had little effect on you. Do you wish to send your companion out to practice his abilities while you wait? Or will you head for the airport?

Can he come with us to wherever we fly?

i guess so, depending on how you go about getting on the plane.

Then let's go to the airport, sneak onto the tarmac, and take a Cessna (or similar) to the closest international airport.

 Interesting; we can make telepaths. If we wanted to, we could spread this to every human we meet, or only a select few who help us and show sufficient clarity of mind. They could be our priests for a new telepathy-inducing religion, where those who follow the codes we set out and show initiative get greater boosts from us and the priests, while those who break the codes or just hang around will find themselves being mind-controlled by the other members (although one of the codes will be to never let such members degenerate lower than where they started). In fact, we've already started with [what's the boy's name already!?], and might even be able to expand to the cop when he comes back.
 I say the symbol of this religion should have one line making the outline of a human's (or our) head from the back to the upper lip (so just a strait line down from the nose), with an eight-pointed where the logic centers usually are.


(A while back there was a forum game about a demon whose symbol was an eye with a knife through it; lets make the opposite of that and see if altruistic humans hate it anyway for its cultiness.)

Edit: So for a plain action; lets try to boost [need name]'s abilities even further, saving just 3 TP for when the copper comes back, the meditating together until he does. (I foresee two humanoids sitting on a couch with expressions like they've had drugs, laughing occasionally at unspoken jokes and pure-thought puns.)

Then, imagine that those miles will melt back into their mantle long before any telescope even refracts an image of their planet. The watchers will be so excited to have that image too.

I think that's a good, and really cool, idea. Only thing we have to do is boost ourselves enough to maintain control of the cult/religion in case they try to revolt.

Speaking of that, we can increase our telepathic capacity, no?

 Yep; using lots of it quickly is what grows our capacity, which is why I said to use all but three points on expanding our freind's horizons (which by proxy should expend our own even faster for the point cost).
 Edit: Still guess this will leave us toasted as a side-effect though.

Cool. But I don't think we should spend that much.

I think we should spend enough so that it is increased, but while we have 1 point higher than him.

Maybe we should just let him train himself while we slowly brainwash in things that involve him always serving us and the like. Also that we are a prophet.
