[This is the first time Lena's made a post of her own, and she looks nervous. For any who haven't met her yet, she looks like your average teenage girl, albeit with one vivid green eye and one gold eye. Probably not too unusual around these parts, though.]

Hi. My name's Lena and--

[She hesitates, sighs, and looks away from the camera for a moment.]

And I was hoping I could get some help? I have this staff from the armory, and I'm not sure how to do stuff with it.

[So clear, this girl.]

I mean, I can do... lots of things. I have powers. I know that's not big news around here, but I was wondering how to use the staff with them, because back home I don't need anything to channel it. But this weapon's supposed to adapt to me? Or something. So I figured it might help.

[She gives the camera a self-deprecating smile.]

Sometimes my powers can be a little unpredictable. That's why I was wondering if anyone could help teach me how to use the staff? Please let me know.

[She's about to turn off the camera, but then she remembers something and the image shakes for a moment.]

Oh, and I don't mind using my powers to help out anybody who needs it. Back home I had to keep it hidden, so it's kind of nice to not have to do that here. Umm, I can control the elements, levitate stuff, create things... Just ask and I'll see if I can help.

What, like the consequence that it might backfire and blow me up? It's been considered.

Or the consequence that it's not what they say it is. Or do you typically trust people you do not know to guide your power?

I trust the people brought here like me more than I do the Initiative. Which is why I asked them, not the Initiative.

But it was the Initiative who gave you the weapon, and told you to use it with your powers. [better than saying magic constantly.] Even if it is one of our number that instructs you in it, you should be more wary.

[Her hackles are raised for a moment. Far too many people have told her to be careful, or to not search for answers and to leave things alone. And it was keeping information from her that ended up making things worse.]

Thanks for the advice. The people here have been really helpful and I'm glad we can depend on each other.

[AKA, others are giving me more help than you right now, so whatev.]
