Handling Your Powers, Tuesday

"I don't know how many of you have powers that tie into the way your body functions," Kaidan said, "Though I have some idea. My biotics-- are integrally bound into the way my muscles work. I have to have perfect control of my body when I'm using them, because certain motions activate bursts of energy."

He crossed his arms. "That's why what happened last weekend is never a good time for me," he said. "When my body changes, the foundation of my reflexes change. When my reflexes change... I start making kitchen appliances float."

Kaidan managed a wry smile before continuing. "So today we're going to be dealing with the body in its resting state," he said. "For some of you, accessing your powers comes naturally, like breathing. Some of you, on the other hand, forget they're even there, and I think a lot of that... has to do with the way you've trained your body to react, consciously or subconsciously."

"So first I want to talk about that - how much does your body factor into your powers? Then I'm going to show you a couple of exercises they taught us to figure ourselves out."

"My enhanced stamina is tied to my body," Will volunteered. "I don't think that my body changing would actually affect it though since it's cellular based. Or so I've been told. It was a lot of medical mumbo jumbo that I didn't understand."
