Incorrect. Vista is "Not human". Her limit is humans not "living creatures, as long as there are no humans in the area she doesn't care what living creatures are there.

What @TheUnicorn said, plus the fact that powers work this way because the shard (or the Entity setting up the shard for the cycle) places artificial limits on them to see what happens when they're used in a certain way. They (supposedly) work via advanced physics rather than themed conceptual magical bullshit, but the latter is exactly what it looks like as expressed on the user end, because they're faking it for SCIENCE! and to keep the hosts from figuring out how 2 shot lazors (or whatever) for themselves and thereby becoming a threat.

I'd agree with this, but... Setting limits requires a way, and criteria, to determine them. And, all the fun things in tech (and SCIENCE!) work at the boundaries. 'Life Sensors' doesn't answer the question, because, what are they sensing? There're not-yet-dead cells in a (reasonably-sized mammal) body for hours after 'death' - is somehow the capability for complex interaction being detected on an informational level, or something, and being used to control snarks?
If Amy's snark (Shaper?) wasn't constrained could she create living cells from the raw chemical elements? Would the real constraint be 'wet carbon nanotech'?

Well, there is this local wetware heuristic decision network that the snark connects to in order to get context and direction in applying its power...
Given how Taylor's canon power mostly functions on "stuff you look at and say 'yup that's a bug,'" I'd say the evidence is pretty good that the thematics and operating criteria are most likely hashed out and set at the trigger event by consulting with the host's brain and whatever the shard already has for information and abilities. Probably, if not outright atomic-scale matter manipulation with a biology/organic chemistry focused database.

The shards are, if not sapient (not saying they aren't, just not arguing they must be), at least sentient. Once you have a living creature making conscious decisions about weather X or Y counts, this sort of argument goes out the window.
And that's before you add the fact the shards appear (at least in some cases) to be able to read the host's reactions and decide based on them.

The interesting thing about mixed drinks are that they settle into layers if left alone for too long...meaning that they are Suspensions, not Solutions.
But the alcohol is miscible with water, which is a solution. :lol

I don't think it is 'living things', but rather 'living people'. Her power was greatly expanded on an uninhabited Earth, but it had a lot of non-human life. IIRC!!!

From what I understand, Cannon Taylor could mess with Vista's powers by having enough bugs in the ares she wanted to affect. So, it may be that any animal life counts.
Besides, from what I understand the Manton Limits are artificial limits imposed by the Snarks, on the orders of the Jabberwocks, and thus arbitrary to a large degree. So, the real question is, what lifeforms did Vista, at the age she triggered at, count as living?

Read Ward:
They are definitely both sapient and sentient. There are interludes written from thier POV. Exactly how intelligent they are is debatable, but they are most definitely intelligent, self-aware, and capable of both decision making and communication.

Nope. Quite a few fanfiction stories have that, but it's not canon.
No.
Regarding their sentience, it's irrelevant to the discussion so I'm not getting into that.

Sitters bugs are mastered. In a large enough group they very likely get flagged as enough and vista's powers wouldn't work as well. It depends on how vista power Can tells what's human or not. Can't remember that bit of canon well and any that's not here or there.

Chapter 211
Monday morning Taylor tried to sleep in, but ended up awake fairly early anyway because Amy had ended up being called to the hospital. Stretching, she considered that between school and various parahuman activities she may not have another true 'day off' for a while. Yes, she'd have weekends off from school, and Dennis's desire to not fill the schedule to the max would probably give her more time off until she took over as Wards leader. But she figured that with the summer over some of the other things that she'd been expecting would no longer be held off.
At least, she assumed that she hadn't been bombarded with Case 53s in part because the PRT was trying to let her have a summer vacation. And they hadn't had much in the way of larger scale tinker fugues either, for that matter. Granted, some of that could also be blamed on too much else going on as well. But with the Fallen no longer causing problems and the other gangs seemingly a lot calmer?
Deciding to be somewhat lazy in heading to the PRT building, she grabbed her moped and used one of her pistol openers to get it into the 'Shaper' pocket dimension without opening the garage up. She might actually want to start parking the thing in there, at least until other options were completed. With it in there in case she wanted it later she finished gathering her things before calling the PRT.
"Good morning," came through her phone as the call was answered.
"Good morning Dragon," Taylor replied. "I didn't mean to bother you, I thought I'd called the PRT."
"You caught the ENE during shift change, and I opted to intercept instead of sending you through to Boston. Did you need anyone in particular this morning?"
"Oh. No, I just wanted to make sure that I wasn't going to accidentally cause panic by remote-opening a pocket dimension door into the PRT building."
"Ah. I took the liberty of registering the energy signature of the one you and Amy share in the PRT systems, so long as you don't open it into secure areas that you aren't permitted to enter you should be fine."
Taylor nodded to herself, that sounded reasonable. Except for one detail, of course. "I wasn't planning on using that one this morning."
Dragon needed a moment to parse that, and she sounded very curious when she finally continued. "I wasn't aware that you had access to any others. Is this something that happened yesterday?"
"Yes, it is. Joey gave Amy and I a second shared one, a personal one each, and even gave Ackbar one. I was planning on using the new shared one today."
"I see. I think it might be best if you aim for the secure garage in that case, I'll suppress the initial alarms. Are you aiming to work out, tinker, or do something else?"
"I was planning on using the gym. Not sure if I was going to do much else."
"Do you have time to meet with me afterwards to register the new signatures?"
Considering that, and deciding that short of someone else deciding that it was important for her to be somewhere her day was basically free, she saw no problems. "That would be fine. I can see about having Amy hang around as well?"
"Thank you. That will simplify a number of things."
"I'll bring a spare key crystal for the build-out quote that I included in a request on Saturday too."
"I suspect that I should just grab a case of the carry boxes."
Ten minutes later Taylor was working her way through the opening system. Targeting the secure garage wasn't that difficult, though she'd almost targeted the Protectorate parking area by accident. The little holographic map that was opened was simplistic, but helped immensely. Really, with a little effort you could probably open up to almost anywhere on the planet with the system, but the further you went from a registered targeting beacon the slower it was able to show you the terrain. But she got everything and stepped through. Right into her empty parking space, in fact. Grinning, she closed the pocket dimension opening and headed for the stairwell.
Missy had shown up to use the gym shortly before Amy made it over from the hospital. Taylor had mentioned registering her pocket dimension with the PRT so that it wouldn't set off alarms if she opened it in the building, and offered to help her enter the access code for the beacon installed above the Wards area.
"Why would I want to do that?" Missy asked, looking curious and slightly confused. "I thought that was more for emergencies since you've got a giant setup and all?"
Taylor grinned. "Besides that if you have an emergency it'll make it easier for you to find an alternate place to open a portal in case something happens? I came in today by walking through my closet door, targeting the secure garage, and then walking out into my parking space."
Missy blinked a couple of times before she started grinning. "Even if it took you half an hour to target the garage it might still be worth it compared to taking the bus."
"And to get home I'll be able to fire at a nearby wall, walk in, and then walk out through my closet door because of the unit I installed there. Assuming I haven't gone somewhere with my moped, that I left parked in the pocket dimension in case I wanted to use it."
"Well, I think I know what I'm badgering someone into helping me with today. But I might not want to use the closet, I kinda expanded it and all and we know how that interacts with things...though if I move stuff into the pocket dimension instead? Hmmm..."
Amy found Missy's mumbling about the pros and cons of various installation points for her own opener amusing when she joined them. They quickly decided that if the other three New Wave signatures should be registered then it could happen during their build-outs instead of calling them all to the PRT building to meet with Dragon, though mentioning that out loud had gotten Missy interested at well. They ended up discussing the build-out options generally available for the pocket dimensions throughout the remainder of their workout and the breakfast that followed.
"Good morning," Dragon called as she entered the Wards area pushing a cart. "Sorry I took so long, but I stopped to help when I spotted a three-car accident on the way over."
"Morning," the three girls chorused.
"I've suppressed all of the alarms for portals in here for the moment as I'll need you to open each pocket dimension while I've got scanners running."
Taylor ended up helping to unpack and set up the scanning equipment and started things off with her three pocket dimensions. Amy had the one linked to Shaper confirmed as being the same as when Taylor opened it as well as opening her personal one, and then Missy opened hers as well. With that done Dragon ensured that all of the signatures were registered with the PRT systems, then enabled the alarms again and had them ensure that none of the pocket dimensions tripped them. That included the original one that Taylor and Amy shared.
With all of that done Dragon then collected spare key crystals for the new private pocket dimensions that Taylor and Amy had, as well as one for Missy's since she was now considering ordering a build-out as well and she trusted Dragon to keep it safe until she'd gone through that whole process. The scanning equipment and labeled cases with the key crystals were then packed back onto the cart and Dragon left them to do whatever it was they planned on doing with the rest of their day.
"So how do I connect to the whatever it was here?" Missy asked shortly after the door to the Wards area closed.
Taylor looked at her. "I assume that you got a kit including a relay and device to open the pocket dimension from the inside, right?"
Missy nodded. "Of course."
"Then we pop in and punch in the key code for the beacon. You might also want to consider ordering a beacon or two of your own."
It turned out that Missy had piled all of her kit in the pocket dimension, and Taylor ended up giving her tips on how to install one of the openers in a doorway as well while they were in there. They then exited, Missy closing the portal, and sat there for a few minutes.
"Okay," Missy finally said, turning to Taylor. "Three powers means three pocket dimensions, I get that. Shared with Amy means shared pocket dimension as well, but where'd the fourth come from?"
Taylor shrugged. "Ackbar."
"Oh."
The three were silent again, until Amy stood up. "I think I want to bash some things in the junkyard. Would you two like to join me?"
There were no complaints about that plan of action.
Maya double-checked that she had everything ready. She'd hooked up a laptop to the television, since it was unlikely that anyone local would be showing Trigger Vision's show live so she was going to need to stream it. The microwave popcorn was ready to pop and a bowl was waiting to dump it into. The decent enough beer she'd been able to locate after searching for two days was in the small refrigerator. She'd ensured that the cleaning staff wouldn't touch anything by putting out the do not disturb/clean sign.
Pausing to listen, she smirked for a moment when she heard nothing, before frowning. The idiot kids in the room next door would be avoiding using the internet for the day, unlike the day before when they were screwing up the entire hotel's bandwidth with something stupid. She just hoped that her influence on them faded before any reason to scan them came up. Granted, she'd made them assume they were avoiding it because something went wrong with the internet connection, so hopefully they were merely off somewhere whining. Still, short of them walking up to the PRT and asking for a master-effect scan today it wasn't likely to be an issue.
Shaking her head, she tossed another pillow onto the chair she'd be sitting in to watch the show. It was too bad that it could very well be the last one the thinker ever put on, but Mama had finally admitted that they'd used them before in a more private session or two. But the bigger the audience the more easily things came to them, and they'd insisted on going for a full public viewing as soon as they'd been able to confirm that they had sufficient targeting materials. Not to mention extra money just to have an ambulance on standby. Which probably meant that this was going to be big.
Hopefully it would also be enough to tell them how Heralds could be made, but insights into how to approach the three girls going forward would be appreciated as well.
Checking her watch, she confirmed that she had plenty of time to go get lunch. She'd be back with time to spare even if she walked the whole way and grabbed dessert as well, but she should probably stick to just lunch. She needed to leave room for the popcorn, after all, and she could always splurge on dessert with a celebratory dinner for a job well done.
After a nice lunch the three girls had all decided to spend some time wandering around outside. On foot, because Missy hadn't pulled off getting her own fancy moped yet. Something that the girl whined about a bit as they left the PRT building, though only after stowing Amy's moped in the Shaper-linked pocket dimension next to Taylor's. No need to return to the PRT building just to get the thing, after all.
"It isn't like my parents think I can't handle myself out and about on foot," Missy grumbled. "But as soon as something else is involved they get all defensive. They don't even want me to be out on a bicycle."
"Maybe they don't want you on anything that could be used 'in traffic'?" Amy offered. "Though with the state of some of the sidewalks I'm not sure that roller skates or a skateboard would be good ideas."
"Whatever their reasons, they're annoying. And they've never told me why beyond 'because they said so' either."
Taylor just shrugged. She couldn't do much about it either way.
Eventually the three gave up on finding anything they wanted to do, though that was largely because anytime they approached anything moderately crowded they became the center of attention. Which quickly soured them on whatever it was they'd approached and had them moving on, only for the pattern to repeat. Missy opted to head home to start planning on where to install an opening device while Taylor and Amy found an empty side street to pop open the pocket dimension containing their mopeds.
"Should we just head home or do we want to actually go somewhere?" Taylor asked once they'd entered the pocket dimension.
Amy gave that some thought. "I can't think of anywhere to go, but we could see if anyone is willing to supervise us in the greenhouse. Not that I've ever started to drop into a fugue state in there, and doing so accidentally now shouldn't even be possible, but house rules are house rules."
"Works for me."
It didn't take long to dismiss the portal they'd entered through and pop one open into Amy's room. Sadly, it turned out that nobody else was home, and Amy wasn't in the mood to risk being grounded because she was in the greenhouse unsupervised. Taylor didn't count on that front, since she'd be participating and all. Instead they ended up making popcorn and grabbing a movie from the collection available.
Missy had evaluated options for the pocket dimension opening device, and sadly her closet and her bedroom door seemed to be poor options. There weren't any good places to plug the damned thing's power cord into next to either. Granted, that was good from the point of view of not needing to empty out and remove the expansion on her closet, but it was still annoying overall. So while she waited for her parents to come home she was looking for other options.
So far the best choice looked to either be the hall closet or the living room doorway, both had power accessible right next to them. Either that or she could use a window, but that could get awkward to get in and out. Experimentation with the pistol and handheld cube openers while working on that had resulted in other questions as well, such as how the hell you could open a portal overlaying a door frame and not cut off the doorknob. The doorknob shouldn't fit, and yet it was left sitting there unharmed when the portal closed.
Half an hour had been dedicated to that mystery, and the best she'd been able to determine was that her power probably wasn't compatible with things because the portals used something similar to it in the process of opening things. The 'surface' for the portal was smoothed over as though her own power or something similar was compressing it down into a flat plane, then restored when the portal closed. Crossing her power's effects with the signal to the 'key' probably distorted things enough to cause problems as well, but that was more confusing to her. Unless part of the effect was being generated in the little crystals, anyway.
She did acknowledge that trying to prove some of that by smoothing out a door before firing the pistol at it had been a horrible idea. Somehow she'd been hit with a killer headache, the portal hadn't opened, and the 'smoothing out' had suddenly stopped being a thing. Though she wasn't sure if that was because the headache had caused her to release it or because it being forcibly released had given her a headache.
It was too bad that she didn't have a suitable free section of wall in her bedroom. The best choice was her window, and in her testing the portal had simply snapped to the window frame instead of to the wall around the window. The living room wall between the windows had worked well enough, but that section was empty in part because of the lack of power, which made it impractical. It was also a little too visible, if she were being honest with herself.
Maybe she needed to start considering using an extension cord?
Mark had come back about two thirds of the way through the movie, apparently they'd just missed him leaving when they'd arrived. Sadly, when they'd finished with the movie and asked about greenhouse time he'd pointed out that Amy had to get ready for the New Wave team photo that would be taken before dinner. Taylor had been invited to join them, if only as an 'honorary' member due to being outed and all anyway, but had declined.
Instead she'd checked with her father and found that he still hadn't made it home. Apparently he was having car trouble, and she volunteered to come take a look and give him a 'lift' back to the house if needed. He wasn't sure what that would entail, but she'd gotten her moped out of the pocket dimension and headed over to Kurt and Lacey's house. She found the car sitting out front with the hood up, her father and Kurt arguing over what they thought might be wrong with it.
"Hey there," Taylor called as she walked over. "What's wrong?"
"The starter isn't doing anything when we turn the key," her father answered. "I think there's a wiring problem, but Kurt is insisting that the issue is actually in the power steering for some stupid reason."
Taylor nodded at that, acknowledging the argument. Then leaned into the open driver's side window. She turned off the dome light before turning the key to the accessory position. Things lit up for a moment, but she could see them dim slightly as it sat there. Nodding to herself, mostly for show since neighbors were watching, she turned the key back and moved around to the open hood. She checked a couple of things, just in case her tinker snark had missed something, but found nothing else.
"So what's your verdict?" Kurt asked.
Taylor gestured at the engine. "I'm fairly certain that you're both wrong."
Danny sighed. "Okay, then what did we miss?"
"The battery is very low, probably because it's a little old and the dome light was left on. I don't know if anything else was sitting on overnight that you turned off before I got here, of course."
Kurt sighed. "It figures that we're idiots and didn't think of that. I guess we should grab some jumper cables."
It didn't take long to get the car running again, after which Taylor followed her father home in case something else went wrong, but he made it just fine. He parked in the driveway and left the engine running so that the battery could charge up a bit, which meant that they'd have to pay some attention to ensure nobody tried to drive off with the car. At least until he headed back out to go pick up something for dinner, since neither of them wanted to cook.
Taylor sat in the living room with her father after dinner. He was reading a book while she was researching various things on her visor, instead of having the news turned on like they might normally do. That primarily stemmed from her not really wanting to know what the reporters would be making of her walking around for a bit with Amy and Missy. She had no guarantee that it was going to come up, of course, but she didn't want to know if it did.
Her current research topic was a combination of school and PRT rules. Namely, would she be likely to get in trouble for using pocket dimension portals on school grounds. So far it looked like the PRT only discouraged it when your cape identity was a secret, and even then that was written more in regards to 'if your powers let you...' instead of 'if you got access to something that can make a portal for you'. The school system and Arcadia, on the other hand, had some very generic rules that she thought she had the gist of.
The results of her search basically seemed to imply that she was fine so long as she wasn't bringing things into the school that were against the rules through the portal to the pocket dimension, she didn't do so without permission while class was in session, and probably so long as she didn't 'leave school grounds' in the middle of the school day. Whether or not opening the pocket dimension between classes or at lunch to grab something from it counted as 'leaving school grounds' was harder to determine.
Arriving, opening things up long enough to park her moped inside, and then finding a bathroom to leave through at the end of the day after her last class seemed like it would be perfectly fine by her reading of things. Which would be especially nice on days where the weather was a problem for any reason whatsoever. And actually, she could probably go further, because they had permission to install a beacon in the school and just hadn't gotten around to it. With that she could probably skip the driving to school at all. On days where the weather sucked, anyway.
She sent a message asking about that off to the school administration, and included a note that Missy might wish to take advantage of it as well. She then sent another to Colin asking about timing for installing a beacon in the Rig. She had a 'where' but had never scheduled a 'when' after all. And for that matter, they'd never actually gotten a response about installing one in the pub either, so she dug that message out and sent a reminder. She wasn't sure if they'd want one there at all, and she hadn't asked when she'd seen them in person.
Ever-efficient, by the time she'd finished sending the message off about the Pub she'd gotten a response back from Colin. He recommended Thursday after school, apparently Dennis hadn't added anything to the schedule for then yet. She dropped that into her calendar so that nothing else would end up scheduled.
She was interrupted in all of this by her phone ringing. Blinking, she answered, but subvocalized so as to not bother her father. "Hi Missy. Something come up?"
"Are you or Amy watching the news?" Missy asked in lieu of a greeting.
"Er, no to me, and I don't think Amy is even home right now. Should we be?"
"Yes. Very much yes."
Unsure that she wanted to know, and now too curious not to check, she grabbed the remote and turned on the television. Her father looked up from his book as she switched to the news. The station came on in the middle of talking about a sixth Endbringer for some reason. But it wasn't long before a ticker-tape at the bottom of the screen indicated some of the other things that had apparently already come up.
"How the fuck?" her father said, which echoed some of her own sentiments. Taylor barely even noticed as Missy apparently decided that Taylor had more important things to do and ended the call.
Taylor: Amy, we have a problem.
Amy: Wait, what?
Taylor: The national news is talking about us sharing powers and a sixth Endbringer, amongst other things.
Amy: WHAT?
♦ Topic: Trigger Vision's Insane Revelations about Maul and Panacea
In: Boards ► Places ► America ► Brockton Bay
Bagrat (Original Poster) (Veteran Member) (The Guy in the Know)
Posted On Sep 5th 2011:
As many may know, Trigger Vision did a multi-parahuman "deep scan" today. For those that don't know what that is, full details are available over here, but here's a quick summary: She downs a tinker-made power booster and with the aid of a freely given blood sample from a parahuman spouts details on their trigger event and powers, instead of her normal "flash of insight" she can get from touching a parahuman.
Today, for the first time ever, she did a 'deep scan' without the parahumans present and without a blood sample, instead using several other items obtained for each target. This likely concerns people, but I'll leave that discussion for the main thread. Her targets today? She started with Missy Biron, also known as Vista. She then moved onto both Amy Dallon, aka Panacea, and Taylor Hebert, aka Maul. For reasons that weren't initially clear she did both of them at the same time.
I finally found a full video of things, instead of the random screaming rantings from people in the main Trigger Vision thread regarding Endbringers. You can find that video here if you want to watch it. But I've compiled what was said below, since nobody else seemed to want to pull it all together.
For Vista we got a fairly standard result. She gained the ability to trigger directly, common in first-generation capes. Her trigger event was caused by family issues making her need emotional space. She got the ability to manipulate physical space, with a Manton limit. None of this was surprising to anyone at the event.
For Panacea, things started off easy. She gained the ability to trigger from a connection with her parahuman father. Her trigger event happened when her sister was injured in front of her, though Trigger Vision indicated that she was under the influence of a parahuman power at the time. That usually makes trump powers, after all. But she got unrestricted bio-kinesis at touch range.
I find myself very happy that she's never snapped and has stuck with healing, and it makes rumors about interesting plants make quite a bit more sense.
We then move onto Maul. She gained the ability to trigger when her father failed to. Less common, but not surprising. She triggered in an enclosed space containing bio-hazardous waste after being assaulted with a parahuman ability. She triggered with blunt object projection and the ability to communicate with powers.
And now I think we have a very good explanation for a lot of oddities surrounding her abilities. But that was just the beginning, because again for the first time we know of Trigger Vision continued.
Maul and Panacea apparently "deeply linked" with a third, unknown parahuman to modify Maul's body. I suspect this was the infamous "tinker fugue" that we've heard about every so often over the past eight months. No wonder she came out on top if her powers were participating.
Next up was what I believe to be the incident where Glory Girl punched out Miss Hebert. Nearly died, severe brain damage, and Maul's powers used information from Panacea's powers to fix said brain damage. I don't even know where to begin on how wrong that sounds, because self-healing isn't one of the things that came out of that trigger event.
Maul then "deeply linked" with two other parahumans to build something, followed by doing the same with a large number of parahumans to build something else. I suspect that the latter might be the origin of the anti-master devices that the PRT started using.
And now we get into the absolutely insane things. Something somehow 'dislodged' both of their powers, followed by Behemoth splitting someone else's power. As a result they both got connected to each other's powers, plus a third unique but unknown power that Trigger Vision couldn't identify in either of them.
If I understand that part correctly, both Maul and Panacea have each other's powers in addition to their own. If so, I fully understand why that was kept secret, but holy crap.
The two then "heard" Leviathan, which nicely limits when the rest of these events have happened. It also explains a couple of things I'd dismissed as minor power interactions that'd been reported during the Leviathan fight, if Maul can heal as well as Panacea.
Next up, they remotely detonated someone's power "through supply mechanics", whatever the hell that means. In general. Then they "deeply linked" with a couple of others to modify things.
Maul then repeatedly failed to second trigger, culminating in more brain damage and both girls having their powers changed in an unknown manner by the sixth Endbringer. I am very much hoping that this, in particular, is a mistake.
They then "deeply linked" with others a few times, to modify themselves and others. I'm assuming this is related to rumors of there being tinker fugues available for select PRT and Protectorate members.
Maul was then "sealed into a fight to the death" that resulted in Panacea being knocked out, I assume this was the battle with Quarrel. This time someone's power was merely "overheated" with those supply mechanics, presumably this was how the Butcher was "killed" while leaving Quarrel alive. Though the implication is that she cooked the Butcher, which I find sounds oddly satisfying.
Another discussion or discussions with Leviathan followed, Trigger Vision was slurring a bit at this point, as well as a "deeply linked" session to build something. But then we get to the final, and possibly weirdest, entry in the entire session. They apparently told someone else's power to move to another planet. I have no idea what that means, but Trigger Vision collapsed at that point, bleeding from her eyes and nose, and had to be rushed to the hospital.
I have no clue how to react to most of this. The two girls haven't done anything that I'd consider to be wrong, not even keeping the honestly terrifying secrets that have now been exposed. But the implications astound me.
At least, she assumed that she hadn't been bombarded with Case 53s in part because the PRT was trying to let her have a summer vacation. And they hadn't had much in the way of larger scale tinker fugues either, for that matter. Granted, some of that could also be blamed on too much else going on as well. But with the Fallen no longer causing problems and the other gangs seemingly a lot calmer?
Deciding to be somewhat lazy in heading to the PRT building, she grabbed her moped and used one of her pistol openers to get it into the 'Shaper' pocket dimension without opening the garage up. She might actually want to start parking the thing in there, at least until other options were completed. With it in there in case she wanted it later she finished gathering her things before calling the PRT.
"Good morning," came through her phone as the call was answered.
"Good morning Dragon," Taylor replied. "I didn't mean to bother you, I thought I'd called the PRT."
"You caught the ENE during shift change, and I opted to intercept instead of sending you through to Boston. Did you need anyone in particular this morning?"
"Oh. No, I just wanted to make sure that I wasn't going to accidentally cause panic by remote-opening a pocket dimension door into the PRT building."
"Ah. I took the liberty of registering the energy signature of the one you and Amy share in the PRT systems, so long as you don't open it into secure areas that you aren't permitted to enter you should be fine."
Taylor nodded to herself, that sounded reasonable. Except for one detail, of course. "I wasn't planning on using that one this morning."
Dragon needed a moment to parse that, and she sounded very curious when she finally continued. "I wasn't aware that you had access to any others. Is this something that happened yesterday?"
"Yes, it is. Joey gave Amy and I a second shared one, a personal one each, and even gave Ackbar one. I was planning on using the new shared one today."
"I see. I think it might be best if you aim for the secure garage in that case, I'll suppress the initial alarms. Are you aiming to work out, tinker, or do something else?"
"I was planning on using the gym. Not sure if I was going to do much else."
"Do you have time to meet with me afterwards to register the new signatures?"
Considering that, and deciding that short of someone else deciding that it was important for her to be somewhere her day was basically free, she saw no problems. "That would be fine. I can see about having Amy hang around as well?"
"Thank you. That will simplify a number of things."
"I'll bring a spare key crystal for the build-out quote that I included in a request on Saturday too."
"I suspect that I should just grab a case of the carry boxes."
Ten minutes later Taylor was working her way through the opening system. Targeting the secure garage wasn't that difficult, though she'd almost targeted the Protectorate parking area by accident. The little holographic map that was opened was simplistic, but helped immensely. Really, with a little effort you could probably open up to almost anywhere on the planet with the system, but the further you went from a registered targeting beacon the slower it was able to show you the terrain. But she got everything and stepped through. Right into her empty parking space, in fact. Grinning, she closed the pocket dimension opening and headed for the stairwell.
Missy had shown up to use the gym shortly before Amy made it over from the hospital. Taylor had mentioned registering her pocket dimension with the PRT so that it wouldn't set off alarms if she opened it in the building, and offered to help her enter the access code for the beacon installed above the Wards area.
"Why would I want to do that?" Missy asked, looking curious and slightly confused. "I thought that was more for emergencies since you've got a giant setup and all?"
Taylor grinned. "Besides that if you have an emergency it'll make it easier for you to find an alternate place to open a portal in case something happens? I came in today by walking through my closet door, targeting the secure garage, and then walking out into my parking space."
Missy blinked a couple of times before she started grinning. "Even if it took you half an hour to target the garage it might still be worth it compared to taking the bus."
"And to get home I'll be able to fire at a nearby wall, walk in, and then walk out through my closet door because of the unit I installed there. Assuming I haven't gone somewhere with my moped, that I left parked in the pocket dimension in case I wanted to use it."
"Well, I think I know what I'm badgering someone into helping me with today. But I might not want to use the closet, I kinda expanded it and all and we know how that interacts with things...though if I move stuff into the pocket dimension instead? Hmmm..."
Amy found Missy's mumbling about the pros and cons of various installation points for her own opener amusing when she joined them. They quickly decided that if the other three New Wave signatures should be registered then it could happen during their build-outs instead of calling them all to the PRT building to meet with Dragon, though mentioning that out loud had gotten Missy interested at well. They ended up discussing the build-out options generally available for the pocket dimensions throughout the remainder of their workout and the breakfast that followed.
"Good morning," Dragon called as she entered the Wards area pushing a cart. "Sorry I took so long, but I stopped to help when I spotted a three-car accident on the way over."
"Morning," the three girls chorused.
"I've suppressed all of the alarms for portals in here for the moment as I'll need you to open each pocket dimension while I've got scanners running."
Taylor ended up helping to unpack and set up the scanning equipment and started things off with her three pocket dimensions. Amy had the one linked to Shaper confirmed as being the same as when Taylor opened it as well as opening her personal one, and then Missy opened hers as well. With that done Dragon ensured that all of the signatures were registered with the PRT systems, then enabled the alarms again and had them ensure that none of the pocket dimensions tripped them. That included the original one that Taylor and Amy shared.
With all of that done Dragon then collected spare key crystals for the new private pocket dimensions that Taylor and Amy had, as well as one for Missy's since she was now considering ordering a build-out as well and she trusted Dragon to keep it safe until she'd gone through that whole process. The scanning equipment and labeled cases with the key crystals were then packed back onto the cart and Dragon left them to do whatever it was they planned on doing with the rest of their day.
"So how do I connect to the whatever it was here?" Missy asked shortly after the door to the Wards area closed.
Taylor looked at her. "I assume that you got a kit including a relay and device to open the pocket dimension from the inside, right?"
Missy nodded. "Of course."
"Then we pop in and punch in the key code for the beacon. You might also want to consider ordering a beacon or two of your own."
It turned out that Missy had piled all of her kit in the pocket dimension, and Taylor ended up giving her tips on how to install one of the openers in a doorway as well while they were in there. They then exited, Missy closing the portal, and sat there for a few minutes.
"Okay," Missy finally said, turning to Taylor. "Three powers means three pocket dimensions, I get that. Shared with Amy means shared pocket dimension as well, but where'd the fourth come from?"
Taylor shrugged. "Ackbar."
"Oh."
The three were silent again, until Amy stood up. "I think I want to bash some things in the junkyard. Would you two like to join me?"
There were no complaints about that plan of action.
Maya double-checked that she had everything ready. She'd hooked up a laptop to the television, since it was unlikely that anyone local would be showing Trigger Vision's show live so she was going to need to stream it. The microwave popcorn was ready to pop and a bowl was waiting to dump it into. The decent enough beer she'd been able to locate after searching for two days was in the small refrigerator. She'd ensured that the cleaning staff wouldn't touch anything by putting out the do not disturb/clean sign.
Pausing to listen, she smirked for a moment when she heard nothing, before frowning. The idiot kids in the room next door would be avoiding using the internet for the day, unlike the day before when they were screwing up the entire hotel's bandwidth with something stupid. She just hoped that her influence on them faded before any reason to scan them came up. Granted, she'd made them assume they were avoiding it because something went wrong with the internet connection, so hopefully they were merely off somewhere whining. Still, short of them walking up to the PRT and asking for a master-effect scan today it wasn't likely to be an issue.
Shaking her head, she tossed another pillow onto the chair she'd be sitting in to watch the show. It was too bad that it could very well be the last one the thinker ever put on, but Mama had finally admitted that they'd used them before in a more private session or two. But the bigger the audience the more easily things came to them, and they'd insisted on going for a full public viewing as soon as they'd been able to confirm that they had sufficient targeting materials. Not to mention extra money just to have an ambulance on standby. Which probably meant that this was going to be big.
Hopefully it would also be enough to tell them how Heralds could be made, but insights into how to approach the three girls going forward would be appreciated as well.
Checking her watch, she confirmed that she had plenty of time to go get lunch. She'd be back with time to spare even if she walked the whole way and grabbed dessert as well, but she should probably stick to just lunch. She needed to leave room for the popcorn, after all, and she could always splurge on dessert with a celebratory dinner for a job well done.
After a nice lunch the three girls had all decided to spend some time wandering around outside. On foot, because Missy hadn't pulled off getting her own fancy moped yet. Something that the girl whined about a bit as they left the PRT building, though only after stowing Amy's moped in the Shaper-linked pocket dimension next to Taylor's. No need to return to the PRT building just to get the thing, after all.
"It isn't like my parents think I can't handle myself out and about on foot," Missy grumbled. "But as soon as something else is involved they get all defensive. They don't even want me to be out on a bicycle."
"Maybe they don't want you on anything that could be used 'in traffic'?" Amy offered. "Though with the state of some of the sidewalks I'm not sure that roller skates or a skateboard would be good ideas."
"Whatever their reasons, they're annoying. And they've never told me why beyond 'because they said so' either."
Taylor just shrugged. She couldn't do much about it either way.
Eventually the three gave up on finding anything they wanted to do, though that was largely because anytime they approached anything moderately crowded they became the center of attention. Which quickly soured them on whatever it was they'd approached and had them moving on, only for the pattern to repeat. Missy opted to head home to start planning on where to install an opening device while Taylor and Amy found an empty side street to pop open the pocket dimension containing their mopeds.
"Should we just head home or do we want to actually go somewhere?" Taylor asked once they'd entered the pocket dimension.
Amy gave that some thought. "I can't think of anywhere to go, but we could see if anyone is willing to supervise us in the greenhouse. Not that I've ever started to drop into a fugue state in there, and doing so accidentally now shouldn't even be possible, but house rules are house rules."
"Works for me."
It didn't take long to dismiss the portal they'd entered through and pop one open into Amy's room. Sadly, it turned out that nobody else was home, and Amy wasn't in the mood to risk being grounded because she was in the greenhouse unsupervised. Taylor didn't count on that front, since she'd be participating and all. Instead they ended up making popcorn and grabbing a movie from the collection available.
Missy had evaluated options for the pocket dimension opening device, and sadly her closet and her bedroom door seemed to be poor options. There weren't any good places to plug the damned thing's power cord into next to either. Granted, that was good from the point of view of not needing to empty out and remove the expansion on her closet, but it was still annoying overall. So while she waited for her parents to come home she was looking for other options.
So far the best choice looked to either be the hall closet or the living room doorway, both had power accessible right next to them. Either that or she could use a window, but that could get awkward to get in and out. Experimentation with the pistol and handheld cube openers while working on that had resulted in other questions as well, such as how the hell you could open a portal overlaying a door frame and not cut off the doorknob. The doorknob shouldn't fit, and yet it was left sitting there unharmed when the portal closed.
Half an hour had been dedicated to that mystery, and the best she'd been able to determine was that her power probably wasn't compatible with things because the portals used something similar to it in the process of opening things. The 'surface' for the portal was smoothed over as though her own power or something similar was compressing it down into a flat plane, then restored when the portal closed. Crossing her power's effects with the signal to the 'key' probably distorted things enough to cause problems as well, but that was more confusing to her. Unless part of the effect was being generated in the little crystals, anyway.
She did acknowledge that trying to prove some of that by smoothing out a door before firing the pistol at it had been a horrible idea. Somehow she'd been hit with a killer headache, the portal hadn't opened, and the 'smoothing out' had suddenly stopped being a thing. Though she wasn't sure if that was because the headache had caused her to release it or because it being forcibly released had given her a headache.
It was too bad that she didn't have a suitable free section of wall in her bedroom. The best choice was her window, and in her testing the portal had simply snapped to the window frame instead of to the wall around the window. The living room wall between the windows had worked well enough, but that section was empty in part because of the lack of power, which made it impractical. It was also a little too visible, if she were being honest with herself.
Maybe she needed to start considering using an extension cord?
Mark had come back about two thirds of the way through the movie, apparently they'd just missed him leaving when they'd arrived. Sadly, when they'd finished with the movie and asked about greenhouse time he'd pointed out that Amy had to get ready for the New Wave team photo that would be taken before dinner. Taylor had been invited to join them, if only as an 'honorary' member due to being outed and all anyway, but had declined.
Instead she'd checked with her father and found that he still hadn't made it home. Apparently he was having car trouble, and she volunteered to come take a look and give him a 'lift' back to the house if needed. He wasn't sure what that would entail, but she'd gotten her moped out of the pocket dimension and headed over to Kurt and Lacey's house. She found the car sitting out front with the hood up, her father and Kurt arguing over what they thought might be wrong with it.
"Hey there," Taylor called as she walked over. "What's wrong?"
"The starter isn't doing anything when we turn the key," her father answered. "I think there's a wiring problem, but Kurt is insisting that the issue is actually in the power steering for some stupid reason."
Taylor nodded at that, acknowledging the argument. Then leaned into the open driver's side window. She turned off the dome light before turning the key to the accessory position. Things lit up for a moment, but she could see them dim slightly as it sat there. Nodding to herself, mostly for show since neighbors were watching, she turned the key back and moved around to the open hood. She checked a couple of things, just in case her tinker snark had missed something, but found nothing else.
"So what's your verdict?" Kurt asked.
Taylor gestured at the engine. "I'm fairly certain that you're both wrong."
Danny sighed. "Okay, then what did we miss?"
"The battery is very low, probably because it's a little old and the dome light was left on. I don't know if anything else was sitting on overnight that you turned off before I got here, of course."
Kurt sighed. "It figures that we're idiots and didn't think of that. I guess we should grab some jumper cables."
It didn't take long to get the car running again, after which Taylor followed her father home in case something else went wrong, but he made it just fine. He parked in the driveway and left the engine running so that the battery could charge up a bit, which meant that they'd have to pay some attention to ensure nobody tried to drive off with the car. At least until he headed back out to go pick up something for dinner, since neither of them wanted to cook.
Taylor sat in the living room with her father after dinner. He was reading a book while she was researching various things on her visor, instead of having the news turned on like they might normally do. That primarily stemmed from her not really wanting to know what the reporters would be making of her walking around for a bit with Amy and Missy. She had no guarantee that it was going to come up, of course, but she didn't want to know if it did.
Her current research topic was a combination of school and PRT rules. Namely, would she be likely to get in trouble for using pocket dimension portals on school grounds. So far it looked like the PRT only discouraged it when your cape identity was a secret, and even then that was written more in regards to 'if your powers let you...' instead of 'if you got access to something that can make a portal for you'. The school system and Arcadia, on the other hand, had some very generic rules that she thought she had the gist of.
The results of her search basically seemed to imply that she was fine so long as she wasn't bringing things into the school that were against the rules through the portal to the pocket dimension, she didn't do so without permission while class was in session, and probably so long as she didn't 'leave school grounds' in the middle of the school day. Whether or not opening the pocket dimension between classes or at lunch to grab something from it counted as 'leaving school grounds' was harder to determine.
Arriving, opening things up long enough to park her moped inside, and then finding a bathroom to leave through at the end of the day after her last class seemed like it would be perfectly fine by her reading of things. Which would be especially nice on days where the weather was a problem for any reason whatsoever. And actually, she could probably go further, because they had permission to install a beacon in the school and just hadn't gotten around to it. With that she could probably skip the driving to school at all. On days where the weather sucked, anyway.
She sent a message asking about that off to the school administration, and included a note that Missy might wish to take advantage of it as well. She then sent another to Colin asking about timing for installing a beacon in the Rig. She had a 'where' but had never scheduled a 'when' after all. And for that matter, they'd never actually gotten a response about installing one in the pub either, so she dug that message out and sent a reminder. She wasn't sure if they'd want one there at all, and she hadn't asked when she'd seen them in person.
Ever-efficient, by the time she'd finished sending the message off about the Pub she'd gotten a response back from Colin. He recommended Thursday after school, apparently Dennis hadn't added anything to the schedule for then yet. She dropped that into her calendar so that nothing else would end up scheduled.
She was interrupted in all of this by her phone ringing. Blinking, she answered, but subvocalized so as to not bother her father. "Hi Missy. Something come up?"
"Are you or Amy watching the news?" Missy asked in lieu of a greeting.
"Er, no to me, and I don't think Amy is even home right now. Should we be?"
"Yes. Very much yes."
Unsure that she wanted to know, and now too curious not to check, she grabbed the remote and turned on the television. Her father looked up from his book as she switched to the news. The station came on in the middle of talking about a sixth Endbringer for some reason. But it wasn't long before a ticker-tape at the bottom of the screen indicated some of the other things that had apparently already come up.
"How the fuck?" her father said, which echoed some of her own sentiments. Taylor barely even noticed as Missy apparently decided that Taylor had more important things to do and ended the call.
Taylor: Amy, we have a problem.
Amy: Wait, what?
Taylor: The national news is talking about us sharing powers and a sixth Endbringer, amongst other things.
Amy: WHAT?

♦ Topic: Trigger Vision's Insane Revelations about Maul and Panacea
In: Boards ► Places ► America ► Brockton Bay
Bagrat (Original Poster) (Veteran Member) (The Guy in the Know)
Posted On Sep 5th 2011:
As many may know, Trigger Vision did a multi-parahuman "deep scan" today. For those that don't know what that is, full details are available over here, but here's a quick summary: She downs a tinker-made power booster and with the aid of a freely given blood sample from a parahuman spouts details on their trigger event and powers, instead of her normal "flash of insight" she can get from touching a parahuman.
Today, for the first time ever, she did a 'deep scan' without the parahumans present and without a blood sample, instead using several other items obtained for each target. This likely concerns people, but I'll leave that discussion for the main thread. Her targets today? She started with Missy Biron, also known as Vista. She then moved onto both Amy Dallon, aka Panacea, and Taylor Hebert, aka Maul. For reasons that weren't initially clear she did both of them at the same time.
I finally found a full video of things, instead of the random screaming rantings from people in the main Trigger Vision thread regarding Endbringers. You can find that video here if you want to watch it. But I've compiled what was said below, since nobody else seemed to want to pull it all together.
For Vista we got a fairly standard result. She gained the ability to trigger directly, common in first-generation capes. Her trigger event was caused by family issues making her need emotional space. She got the ability to manipulate physical space, with a Manton limit. None of this was surprising to anyone at the event.
For Panacea, things started off easy. She gained the ability to trigger from a connection with her parahuman father. Her trigger event happened when her sister was injured in front of her, though Trigger Vision indicated that she was under the influence of a parahuman power at the time. That usually makes trump powers, after all. But she got unrestricted bio-kinesis at touch range.
I find myself very happy that she's never snapped and has stuck with healing, and it makes rumors about interesting plants make quite a bit more sense.
We then move onto Maul. She gained the ability to trigger when her father failed to. Less common, but not surprising. She triggered in an enclosed space containing bio-hazardous waste after being assaulted with a parahuman ability. She triggered with blunt object projection and the ability to communicate with powers.
And now I think we have a very good explanation for a lot of oddities surrounding her abilities. But that was just the beginning, because again for the first time we know of Trigger Vision continued.
Maul and Panacea apparently "deeply linked" with a third, unknown parahuman to modify Maul's body. I suspect this was the infamous "tinker fugue" that we've heard about every so often over the past eight months. No wonder she came out on top if her powers were participating.
Next up was what I believe to be the incident where Glory Girl punched out Miss Hebert. Nearly died, severe brain damage, and Maul's powers used information from Panacea's powers to fix said brain damage. I don't even know where to begin on how wrong that sounds, because self-healing isn't one of the things that came out of that trigger event.
Maul then "deeply linked" with two other parahumans to build something, followed by doing the same with a large number of parahumans to build something else. I suspect that the latter might be the origin of the anti-master devices that the PRT started using.
And now we get into the absolutely insane things. Something somehow 'dislodged' both of their powers, followed by Behemoth splitting someone else's power. As a result they both got connected to each other's powers, plus a third unique but unknown power that Trigger Vision couldn't identify in either of them.
If I understand that part correctly, both Maul and Panacea have each other's powers in addition to their own. If so, I fully understand why that was kept secret, but holy crap.
The two then "heard" Leviathan, which nicely limits when the rest of these events have happened. It also explains a couple of things I'd dismissed as minor power interactions that'd been reported during the Leviathan fight, if Maul can heal as well as Panacea.
Next up, they remotely detonated someone's power "through supply mechanics", whatever the hell that means. In general. Then they "deeply linked" with a couple of others to modify things.
Maul then repeatedly failed to second trigger, culminating in more brain damage and both girls having their powers changed in an unknown manner by the sixth Endbringer. I am very much hoping that this, in particular, is a mistake.
They then "deeply linked" with others a few times, to modify themselves and others. I'm assuming this is related to rumors of there being tinker fugues available for select PRT and Protectorate members.
Maul was then "sealed into a fight to the death" that resulted in Panacea being knocked out, I assume this was the battle with Quarrel. This time someone's power was merely "overheated" with those supply mechanics, presumably this was how the Butcher was "killed" while leaving Quarrel alive. Though the implication is that she cooked the Butcher, which I find sounds oddly satisfying.
Another discussion or discussions with Leviathan followed, Trigger Vision was slurring a bit at this point, as well as a "deeply linked" session to build something. But then we get to the final, and possibly weirdest, entry in the entire session. They apparently told someone else's power to move to another planet. I have no idea what that means, but Trigger Vision collapsed at that point, bleeding from her eyes and nose, and had to be rushed to the hospital.
I have no clue how to react to most of this. The two girls haven't done anything that I'd consider to be wrong, not even keeping the honestly terrifying secrets that have now been exposed. But the implications astound me.

So, random question here: What's the current date in-story? Also, what type of school year system is being used? Because to the best of my knowledge, most of New England uses a primarily year-round school year, with generally 2 months free for between-year break (ie july and august); the current (2018-2019) school year had the school year starting around labor day, which would put us in september, but that seems too late. This may not be what's being used though - Wildbow actually didn't appear to use the typical new england school period for Worm, otherwise the timing of the locker events would have played out a little differently.
Mainly I'm wondering because, well... Leviathan's attack was on time, right? Just in Boston instead of BB? Which means late August / very early September is roughly time for the next EB event....
(Edit: A whole bunch of terrible spelling.)

Wait, when did Missy get chummy with him? I thought he was Riley's boyfriend...
Well.
So, Trigger Vision is likely going to be, shortly, asking to be in custody for various things, quite possibly including working with the Fallen, as an alternative to Jacob and Riley being massively pissed at them on Taylor and Amy's behalf. I do have to wonder what laws are now on the books regarding Thinker-related invasion of privacy...

Trigger might want to find a deep deep hole to hide in, wow!
Hey, at least there's some good news here...
I mean, the whole Uncle Jacob is actually Jack Slash and the fact that Taylor and Amy "deeply linked" with Bonesaw several time didn't come out...so at least there's that...

Wow.
How is Trigger Vision allowed to violate privacy like that?
EDIT: I see that always before the parahuman was present.
I foresee hefty lawsuits for invasion of privacy in her future.

Based on what the PHO post said, normally trigger vision does it with the freely given blood of a person who's right there with them. I'd imagine the whole 'your consent and presence are unnecessary if I have a few items' thing was previously unknown. So it was less being allowed, and more nobody realising it was a thing that could happen until it did.

Regardless, I think someone bit off a bit more than they could chew.
Because previously, Trigger Vision used freely-given blood samples and the parahumans in question were present, so presumably agreed. This time, however, i'm fairly sure that if they survive, then the book will be thrown at them, perhaps literally.
Honestly, at this point there's little reason for the PRT not to fess up about almost everything, given most of the dangerous stuff's out there already now. Though I suspect Trigger Vision is going to get asked a few pointed questions about where those items came from and if they knew the parahuman was unaware this was going to happen, as this is a massive breach of the Unwritten Rules as well as a few actual laws IIRC (I'm fairly sure that while you can try to figure out what a Ward's powers are from what they do, going this far isn't legal. Not to mention that it's considered at best rude to reveal someone's Trigger Event without permission)

"Freely given blood sample", which implied it was freely given by the person, but doesn't actually state it. Maya collected various 'freely given' samples and sent them in.
