"At first I thought I'd lost control of them," Bridge says. "Because I could see everyone's auras, and there was this buzzing, in the back of my head, like thoughts, but louder. S'why I was wearing mittens in class the other day. But then I talked to Aly and it turns out my powers are actually being *blocked*. The auras I'm seeing aren't real, and it takes a lot of concentration to break the illusion."
"That beyond-bitch piece of--- gah, I don't have a word for her." Parker growled, and reached out to Bridge, squeezing his hand. "She must have known you might figure it out, with your abilities. But that's just harsh."
"It's going to be over soon," Parker said grimly. "We have a plan. Or at least, an approach to a plan. And if that doesn't work, I'm opting for dropping them in the ocean, seeing if they float."
"But it's not their fault, that they're possessed," Bridge points out quietly. And if it only just *really* sunk in that the same could apply to him. Well.
"How could you ever think it was? Bridge--" Parker leaned over to gently turn his face toward hers. "Speaking as someone who's been possessed, bewitched, transformed, and messed with, it could never, ever be your fault. You didn't collaborate. You just got blind-sided. Do you believe that, now?"
