I am not emotionless you know.
So far it has worked on every metal I've tried.
[Erik turns and considers the street thoughtfully. He reaches out one hand and every car starts lifting into the air.]
[The cars are slowly set down and Erik nods with a wave of his hand.]
Please.
*Hannibal smiles, and then he has claws, horns and fangs and the air around him turns cold. But not a normal cold, a cold that steals the sustanance from your stomach and makes you feel paranoid and angry.* I am a wendigo, it seems.
[Erik looks fascinated but not scared, it takes much more than demons to scare him.]
Interesting.....you shape shift or are you projecting on me?
A bit of both, I think--it's solid if I want it to be, but it's closer to an energy field than flesh.
[Erik nods thinking.]
That is a useful power to have for people who actually scare more than I do.
I've been cold for as long as I remember. And the memory of hunger never faded.
But controlling it like this? That seemed to come with the joy of killing the last of the men who hurt my sister. *He smiles, rather horribly.* He had tried to become an almost normal person--he ran a taxidermist's. I still have his head.

I discovered my power in the camps....a doctor pulled me aside when I tore down a gate with one hand to get to my parents. He wanted to see me do it again...when I could not he shot my mother....then I killed her guards and he was pleased.
Those were cruel years. Sometimes I hate that there are people who didn't come close to starving or freezing that last winter.
Or those who were willing to steal but not willing to share.
So many slammed doors when lives could have been saved.
And saving a life is saving the universe, for everyone sees thing differently and everyone has their own inner world.
And yet they want everyone to think the same.
It will never work, of course. Sameness cannot happen, for God is mad and the universe is chaos.
That is one of the many reasons I no longer believe in God.
I'm not sure if I disbelieve in or just hate Him. It depends on my mood.
