[ With no introduction... ]

back home, one of the main things I used to do was train people to control their abilities - i've spent quite a number of years teaching myself control through various techniques, as it's pretty essential for me to keep things in check.

in a bid to feel useful to the community, interest check:

anyone want training sessions? whether you have abilities you're struggling with, or are just looking to get some more control over yourself, I can help.

[Or at least, try to. ]

What if someone is just curious to see how you train others to control their abilities?

[tanker]

you're welcome to do that. it's nothing special, honestly. a lot of it is practice and a safe space to allow focus and concentration, and learn what exactly the focus should be. some meditation, sometimes.

i've known a number of people that didn't like being watched, and i'd prefer to respect their wishes, but otherwise, feel free

[potentialed]

Of course. I try to allow the same to anyone coming to me for help.

I am familiar with meditation being helpful, too. Not for everyone tho.

What can you do?

[tanker]

not for everyone, no. but plenty of people may find something in it that they didn't think they could, when they realize that it's a very personal process.

[tanker]

in terms of training, or my own abilities?

[kierkegaard]

[ in the words of the great leo valdez, "por que no los dos" ]

Both.

How are you defining 'abilities', out of curiosity?

[tanker]

training depends, on the trainee's abilities, the degree of control they need, how they tap into their power.

as for me, i'm indestructible, pretty much. also very strong, hence the need for control. don't really want to break hands just shaking them.

[ Or much, much worse. ]

[tanker]

powers, usually. although it doesn't have to be, i can also help with most combat skills as well, and just. If someone needs some more control, or more focus, I have some tools that can help.

[kierkegaard]

No, don't want that.

[ come on, pipes, just tell him what you can do. ]

My power isn't physical.

[thestarling]

Powers? Like superhuman things? Is that common where you come from?

it doesn't involve a special diet, does it?

[minsu you already on a special diet.]

Have you ever...dealt with someone who loses control of themselves because they get...possessed in a sense?

I could probably do with brushing off some rust!
Been a while since I practiced Muay Thai.
I don't got any powers, but being more in control is never a bad thing.

[tanker]

doesn't have to be physical

hey, if you're not comfortable talking about it over text, happy to meet up.

[ It's obviously bothering her, in some way. ]

[tanker]

yeah, like that. while it's not exactly common, it's definitely growing. There are more Mutants, every day.

[tanker]

can't say that I have, but i'm sure we can work something out. it might just be about scale

[tanker]

i actually had a moment wondering if i should list credentials, but i don't think i should take the credit for you.

[ That's still kind of an awkward sticking point... ]

[tanker]

might depend on the type of powers we're dealing with, but I highly doubt it

although i'd always recommend a healthy diet

[ Because he is a boring dad-adjacent person. ]

[tanker]

you're welcome to. I like to think some things are useful to everyone.
