Went on a short patrol tonight, mostly because the damned hunger was driving me mad. I couldn't sleep, I could barely think straight. I didn't have to go very far before I found some of the trouble I had been looking for. In one of the alleyways around my neighborhood I found a guy who had harassing an old lady. Doing my best to keep quiet I snuck up behind the man who, upon closer examination has the look of a MAX junkie. Thinking quickly I ripped the black leather glove off my rapidly silvering right hand and slapped it onto the thug's neck. I eased the suddenly unconscious mugger to the ground, the silvering of my hand slowly crawling up my arm.

The rush as a metahuman, even a temporarily and artificially made, power rushed up my arm was intense beyond describing. The closest I can come is like stepping into a steaming shower after a long morning shoveling the driveway. After a few second I blinked my eyes back into focus, returned the old lady her purse. She promptly ran off after a whispered thanks.

Some Valentine's Day.
