Alex stopped dead.
"Can't you let us go without weapons? I've got guns and we have a few tasers," Alex suggested, "Let's stop the pain Holly and nobody needs to know you didn't."
Believe it or not, I don't like hurting innocents.
This was to himself but also for Amanda.

"Alright, hold both arms out could you please?" Alex asked, "I need to take two."

Alex turned to look at Amanda.
Want me to grab two? Alex asking.

"Now that, that is freaky," Alex muttered to himself but it was likely loud enough for Amanda to hear.

"Yeah... I'll get my gear from the ship," Alex said thoroughly weirded out by the girl's spig.

"Yeah I like that idea," Alex nodded, "Let's go be big goddamn heroes!"

"Ah, that was me," Alex admitted in a whisper, "When you said someone accused of them being too small, it just kinda popped into my mind- sorry for making you uncomfortable."
C'mon Martins, keep your mind clean.

Alex returned the smile.
"No need to thank me, nobody should feel like they're crazy when what they have is a gift."

"Happy to help," Alex said with a smile.
There's nothing wrong with you, you're not crazy and you're not a freak, you're special.

"Yeah and I used to have problems making stuff blow up," Alex half laughed, "Just comes with practice."
You'll get it eventually.

"All of it is one hundred percent real," Alex nodded, "Like it or not, you're one of us."
Nice to know you're not crazy eh?

"Certain," Alex said with a nod.
You're doing it right now.

"Well you can read our thoughts love, hasn't the penny dropped yet?" Alex asked.
Then Dick spoke.
"Woah woah," Alex said raising his hands, "Calm down Dick, we're not killing anyone here and you don't need to describe in gory detail something that won't happen- now quit scaring the poor girl!"

Alex was a little startled by Amanda's outburst, he'd been silently waiting to just get on with it.
"Nobody said anything love," Alex said to Amanda before simply asking aloud "So who thought something?"
As he looked at Amanda though another thought came into his mind- related to what she had said ...

"Oh no, your plan is solid," Alex said, "Just want my guns."

"I've really got to share my concern here Spectre," Alex said to Sherwood, "It's better we go armed just incase- easier to have and not need over need and not have. Also, what happens if we're out for an extended period?"

"Down to my line of work," Alex informed Sherwood, "I find it's best that certain questionable individuals don't find out my real name."

KT: I kind of love that several people know Amanda's power, but nobody's told her yet. :lol:
I think everyone that has noticed thus far has kind of brushed it off as a coincidence, or hasn't heard her comment on their thoughts?
It's kinda clicked with Alex, gonna mention when he gives her the ...

"Well mine comes with a whole host of problems," Alex shrugged, "Yeah, I second that about guns- specifically mine."

"Not gonna lie boss-man, that's pretty damn useful," Alex said in an appreciative tone while giving Sherwood a nod.

"She does have a point," Alex nodded, "Take your pick spectre, you're the boss."

"Alright Spectre," Alex said as he attached his badge, "But shouldn't we be set up in standby, just in case."

"Gesture of kindness Dick," Alex stated before turning back to Amanda, "No problem and you're welcome, I'll sort you out before we get there, might be a little uncomfortable mind, but I personally think it's better than the alternative."

"How can I explain this simply?" Alex sighed, "I am wearing a bullet proof vest, you can wear said vest if you are that worried."

"Huh, reading my mind..." Alex muttered, "My Kevlar vest, you that worried we can at least make you fairly bullet proof."
