Suit is so boring. The appearance and style is wrecked by the art in that picture, so I don't even get the appreciation for well-tailored clothes I do for actual photographs of suits. And there are just as many lackadaisically careless powerful characters as there are suited ones that your point doesn't even apply.

==> Bring forward all powers which, upon being received, would allow one to remain and recieve still more powers.
==> Bring forward all powers which would allow the creation or copying of other powers.
==> Bring forward all powers which would allow one to influence other powers.
Failure on all three.
==> Attempt to sense powers with thermoception. (Temperature)
==> Attempt to sense powers with mechanoreception. (Vibration)
==> Attempt to sense powers with electroreception. (Electric Fields)
==> Attempt to sense powers with magnetoreception. (Magnetic Fields)
Each of these work, but they don't reveal any new powers. Instead, you're often able to sense the presence or absence of extra traits; for example, a few abilities with descriptions related to Pyrokinesis were producing large amounts of heat.
===> You've tried sonar... how about mass, weight, and gravitational attraction?
This works, and works extremely well.
Creating a sense for gravitational attraction helps you determine whether or not a potential power has abilities related to gravity.
Sorting the shapes by weight does nothing, but sorting them by mass works exceptionally well. It takes you a while to find a few shapes with readable descriptions within the high-mass powers, but once you do...
Supreme enhanced senses. Superior weather control. Superior empathy. Supreme analysis. Superior absorption.
The high-mass shapes were somewhere in the middle in terms of brightness, but within that middle area, darker ones appear to be stronger. God dammit, Progenitor.
==>check tip notes for invisible writing like we discovered the invisible shapes
You automatically did this earlier.
==> Ask for the Progenitor to please reveal himself and quit leaving notes, it's impolite
==> If the Progenitor doesn't show up or leaves another note, manifest a human being exactly identical to the Progenitor in the process of hiccuping
You briefly consider calling Progenitor or whatever he left behind out on his behavior, then reject that particular idea. It probably wouldn't be very wise to be impolite to an infamous troll.
==> Try to make a connection between two powers
The powers you attempt it with explode.
==> Attempt to create a copy of yourself to help sort through powers.
Failure.
==> Call forth any powers dealing with information analysis. Examine them for connection to other powers.
Failure.
==> Organize powers into opposite pairs. See if you can establish a pattern as to what colors counter each other.
Failure. None of the colors appear to be "opposite" one another.
==> Attempt to organize powers by oldest to newest.
Surprisingly, this works. The dimmer and smaller shapes are almost always older. The powers you had previously identified as "Entities" are oldest of all.
==> Attempt to change your avatar. See if changes in the avatar are reflected in how you process information. (If you add an extra pair of eyes, is it cosmetic, or does it actually provide info, etc.)
Failure. You can change how your avatar looks, but you don't feel any different, nor do you gain extra parts.
==> Can you enter a power to see what it's like from the inside?
You have the feeling doing that would result in actually picking it.
==> Organize powers by commonality. Which powers are most used, which are least used. See if you can find a pattern or underlying reasoning.
Failure.
==> See if you can bring forth the powers that your mother and father have. See if there is any connection between them, or between you and them.
Unlike most other attempts to bring up the powers of other people, this one actually works. Two shapes detach from the grid.
Your father's ability is called "Abberation". It's a dim, but large, brown sphere with many, many sides; you stop trying to count them after reaching a hundred. It also has a few streaks of purple, white, and gold.
Your mother's ability is called "Emissary." It's dim, but large, and has about fifty sides. It's main color is silver, but it also has many streaks of gold, blue, and white.
==> Try to split stream of consciousness to do everything faster
Failure.
==> ask if this is a separate reality we're in?!
"Is the space my consciousness is currently occupying a reality separate from the one I have spent most of my life in?"
A note appears. "Yes."
==> Create red arrows from powers to the powers they cancel the effect of
==> Create blue arrows from powers to the powers whose effects they can duplicate
==>Create green arrows from powers owned by those who have defeated another power owner in combat to powers of those they have defeated
==> Create orange rings around powers that have never before been seen
==> Create blue rings around powers that would allow one to continue receiving other powers
==> Create purple rings around powers that allow for the creation of other powers
==> Create orange lines between powers that are dangerous in combination
==> Create purple lines between powers with a synergistic effect on one another
==> Create red rings around powers owned by individuals defeated in combat
==> Create green rings around powers of those who have defeated others
None of the above work.
==> Create pink rings around powers owned by ourfriends and family
Asking about your friends doesn't work — unsurprising, considering you've only ever talked to them online — but trying to label your family does. Pink rings are formed around "Aberration" and "Emissary." Nine other shapes are also labeled in this manner. A second ring is formed around the specific word as part of the description of those shapes.
The abilities the remainder of your family possesses are as follows:
Least Regeneration, Least Empathy, Least Cognitive Boost, Least Enhanced Taste, Cognitive Enhancement, Lesser Shade, Minimal Healing, Standard Elemental Control, Greater Basic Empathy.

Do we get the secondary powers of the secondary powers? or are all secondary powers dead-ends?

You have yet to find any secondary powers with secondary powers.
