Sounds about like the same problem I have.

Don't you just hate it? I feel so... useless. I think I've cleaned my house from top to bottom at least ten times now.

My dorm room has never looked cleaner! Not that it's entirely ...er...spotless...HOWEVER I feel mildly accomplished and somehow bored silly at the same time.

It's such a frsutrating feeling. My mot' always told me that a clean house meant a clear mind but I don't think that is always true.

I've resorted to baking but I should be getting some notes through about a potential job hopefully soon!

Baking? That sounds like fun. Maybe I should do that.

You any good at baking? I'm getting to be a dab hand at cakes, cookies and sweets but anything more complicated and I tend to burn it.

Ben used to tease me about it.

I can't cook to save my life. It's pretty bad.

Who is Ben?

Well considering the amount I've baked could feed an army I could send some over for you. It's either that or buy a dog and teach it to love lemon fairy cakes, rum truffles and blueberry cheesecake.

Ben. Ya vodova. I'm a... for want of a better word a widower and Ben was my husband.

Oh. That's sad to hear.

I'm Nori.

Thank you Nori, I'm Katya.

So where do you come from then Nori? And what are you studying for you to be stuck in dorms? Hehe I remember my days at University!

I'm originally from Japan. Now I reside in New York at a boarding school for mutants.

I'm technically not a student anymore but...they're being nice and letting me stay until I figure something out.

I've been to Osaka, went travelling around the world and I positively loved the country!

Oh a boarding school for mutants? Sounds far more fancy then what I had available to me when I was studying!

So you're a mutant huh?

Yup! I'm a mutant and proud of it. I can generate and manipulate electricity and run really damn fast.

Sounds impressive! I bet you're popular when there are power cuts aren't you!

I'm a mutant too. I can create poisons and toxins and make anything I want injure, intoxicate or harm a person. It means however alcohol doesn't work well on me which is always rubbish at parties and new year!

Actually, I'm usually blamed for the power outages. But if someone needs their iPod charged, I'm the first one they come to.

That is actually a nifty ability.

It has its perks.

I'd love to be able to manipulate electricity though! I'd happily zap a few people and put them back in their rightful places!

Heh. That...is what used to get me in detention all the time.

I don't exactly have the best control of the ability, though. It's always switched on no pun intended.

I generate enough and it actually starts to hurt.

That doesn't sound too good. Thankfully I've learnt to control my ability or else I'd be poisoning everyone and anyone at the slightest touch... and lets not mention how leathal my cooking would be!

I do occasionally lose it though but I haven't had that issue in a while thankfully.

I have gauntlets that a friend made for me. They store the excess. Even then, though. I need to let it out somehow and...yeah.

I short out the school like a champ.
