...The ability to create short-distance rifts in space.
Which, while somewhat underwhelming, is still an extremely cool thing to be able to do.
You've GOT to try this out.

This would be more awesome if you...

Whatever. Practice by creating an energy-efficient machine using a portal. Then try to design a weapon that revolves around the portal devices.

Examples include a particle accelerator, gravity-powered food / water dispenser, vacuum, solar lamp, etc.

Don't use your power to fight directly, that will just make you lazy. Plus, any rivals will figure out how to beat you faster. Play the gadgeteer and keep them guessing how you do it.

Can you "refract" what comes out of the portals?

Through some fiddling around, you find out you can create portals within a few metres of your body, and that walking away from them seems to make them collapse.
Not devoting a certain amount of attention to them also seems to make them collapse.
You can only create two linked portals for now, but that seems to have more to do with how much brainpower you need to spend to keep them open than some kind of hard cap. You can probably learn to keep more open with experience.
You test a gravity loop using an apple for obvious reasons.

The apple slamming into the floor at terminal velocity apparently wasn't enough. You also spilt your breakfast.
At least you now know you can move portals while they're open, as long as they're close to you. Whatever's jutting out of the portal seems to move with it, because what you're moving is technically space itself.
That was the last of your milk.

Your first thought was that, since they're essentially two-dimensional, portal edges would be infinitely sharp.
Turns out there's a reactive force, stopping any matter from actually coming into contact with the edges, analogous to magnets repulsing each other.
Collapsing portals, however, will evenly and perfectly 'cut' anything caught inside them.

>Collapsing portals, however, will evenly and perfectly 'cut' anything caught inside them.
Sure hope you didn't test that with your finger!

Next test: Magnifying glass between two portals, see what happens to the light.

Interesting as all this is, kinda wondering about that smallish woman that may or may not be real. Let's consult the internet and see if we can find out anything.
While we are at it let's also check the news for any reports on powered beings popping up.

this power means you can give yourself blowjobs

what... what happens if portals touch?

...can you put a portal through another portal?

Can you crush something between two portals facing each other (pressing it against itself)?
What is on the back of the portal; another portal leading to the back of the first portal, or something else?
Can you hover or even fly by sitting on a board laid across a horizontal portal and moving the portal?

Also consider how possible it would be for you to immediately skip town in case someone shows up conscript and/or eliminate you.

That... Thing drove old man Johnson into a corner!
Unless you want revenge on mr Johnson for giving you black licorice for Halloween that one time, it's time to act fast!

well getting close to that thing is probably a bad idea so instead open a portal in front of the thing and have Marty push it away from the old man by sticking his hand through it. Then once it's away from the old man open a few more portals and have Marty attract his hand to pull the monsters limbs through the portals and then close them severing the monsters limbs.

Make a portal in front of the creature's head and the other at a safe distance. Then try to close the portals while the monster halfway through them.

Fighting! I knew it!

Get it in a portal if you can, or if your portals can move fast you might be able to bludgeon it with the edges.

Oh man. Can we make a BIG portal?
If we made a portal big enough to toss that monster through, we'd have terminal velocity.
If we can't go that big another thought is a portal to get the old man outta there...
Or we could use a series of Marty-portals to bounce the monster away and then hang it up somewhere (Remember he can attract AND repulse) while we call the police to deal with it...
Or just start portal-cutting the beast's limbs off. We've got options!

Stab it in the neck using your portals! Have Marty combine his repulsive powers with punches.

No, wait... try to make a portal INSIDE the monster.

Use the portals to break off some of the handrails, make weapons out of the environment. Place a portal at the neck and demand surrender.

Stab him with the weapon instead of killing him with the portal. Try to minimize your power usage in combat.

You are AGNES.

You feel like you've smashed power into enough random Johns and Janes to deal with the monster crisis. The crises that come after, only time will tell. One step at a time.
After it's all over, stories will spread among those you gifted about that girl with the bat that saved Downtown City by giving it its own league of superheroes. They'll probably build statues in your honour.
For now though, you decide to think some things through again. In detail. Things like how powers work, how your bat works, stuff one would consider background info. Or exposition, if there were some metafictional shenanigans going on.
What'll it be?

Hrrm...Well, obviously, the most important thing to think about is how do we shot web. As in, how do powers work.

Where did the monsters come from and can they reasoned with and/or controlled?

soooo what happens if the people you smashed in the face choose instead of stopping the monster to use the monsters as a smoke screen while they rob, loot, and kill around them think that with there new powers nothing could stop them?

What other sources of power are there?
What happens when you get hit with the bat twice?
How did you know about the monsters?
Are the johns, janes, dans and martys going to become horrific monsters because of entropy?

Hug yourself.

Contemplate how long these powers will last. How much energy does a power usually use?

How does the bat work anyway?

Powers are effectively functions coded into the universe. The mind can run these functions - if it knows where to look. As long as the mind is going through the mental processes the power requires, the power will manifest. Hitting someone with the bat makes them aware of a power, which is otherwise behind a mental barrier and unreachable. Once they have access to one power, they can discover more.

The bat wasn't originally a bat. The important part of it is the device on top. When it comes into contact with nerve tissue, it propels the mind in the direction of a random power it has in its database. It then rewinds time to when the current session of consciousness began, which pretty much means whenever the schmuck last woke up.

Any contact with the device will do, but you've decided to bash knuckleheads because time will reset anyways, and it's more fun to send them flying.
Hitting someone with the bat twice propels their mind past the point where the powers are, which not only does not give them access to even stronger and stranger powers, but also turns very ugly very fast, both for the one hit and everyone in the blast zone.
The bat has given you superhuman strength. You keep the device turned off when not whacking powerless chucklenuts, to avoid accidentally touching the device and painting nearby scenery red.

You're growing bored after those word dumps. Doing something about the monster onslaught would both be fun and a visibility boost.
You don't know much about the monsters other than that they probably escaped from some secret lab. Or dungeon. Or cult.
Will you go to town on the oversized pests, or will you try to find out where they're coming from? The former will make it easier to make a name for yourself, while the latter will be much more efficient in dealing with them.

I saw find where they're coming from. I mean if you're the one who gave everyone there powers and then run around yelling to the world where you're at then they'll always come looking for you and you'll be stuck doing word dumps forever and never get anything done. Oh god and I can only imagine how annoying it would be once people find out you can actually give people powers.

I think it would be more fun to be a more mysterious hero so if anyone wants to track you down they'll have to work for it and then you can simply fuck with them when your board. Plus once you find where these things are coming from most of the monsters will probably still be there so there's more things for you to beat the shit out of instead of chasing them down one by one.

Leave the amateur heroics to the amateur heroes. You're going to the source, where the real challenges live!

What'll you do with the bat if you go hunt monsters? Does it not work on them, or is the horrific backlash less impressive on weaker minds?

At any rate, you're giving random people powers, you're clearly much more interesting in the entertainment value of the situation than anything else. Solving it would be counter intuitive.

Although, being in the group that finally closes it would probably be a good idea since they're probably going to form the first super league. If you want in on that. Maybe just scout the place out and then go around beating up monsters until someone else finds it.

aw... can't we do a little more words? Why are brains able to access these powers in the first place? Why don't they by default?

So are you some kind of mad scientist or did you get the device from someone else? Are you a space cop?!

>>688929
Man, we need to learn how to portal cut without getting knocked out. I bet with enough meditation and practice we could learn how to adopt a mental state that doesn't support portals without the trauma.

So your hero making tool is also is also a hero killing tool should they go crazy or evil with the powers you've granted. That's kind of handy.

The latter. It's not about making a name for yourself, it's about making the difference. Every hero out there will know who you are, anyways. And you already created a bunch of bozos to deal with the monsters.

Other residents of the building heard the commotion and witnessed your heroism.
Crowd: Those two killed that monster! They're heroes!
Marty: Not really, we're just two guys who got hit in the head really hard...
Crowd: Look at how humble they are! Amazing!
Dan: Relax, Marty, we did good. Indulge a little.

On your way you notice a monster out in the street!
Though you can't see its mouth, it appears to be screaming. Constantly.
It's smaller than the one before, and doesn't really look all that threatening.
More like a mild inconvenience to people passing by.
It's slightly pathetic.
How do you deal with it?

Give it a hug.

"There, there. It's okay. Everything's fine. You can relax."

Wait and see how long until someone hits it with a car. I mean the damn thing is standing in the middle of the road, it's only a matter of time.

Trap one of its legs in a portal, hold it still for Marty.

First try talking to it, it might actually just be lost and not a horribly murderous monster.

If it is determined to be unacceptably hostile/violent then: Portal above and below, see if we can't get that sucker to tear itself apart through force of wind alone as it reaches and stays at terminal velocity. I mean really, leave those portals open long enough and it should be like a pretty damn powerful wind-tunnel trying to tear the thing apart.

Make it kick itself in the dick.

Dan: Do you think we have to kill this one too? It doesn't look too aggressive.
Marty: I see what you mean. Maybe we can talk to it? Since it's screeching, it can probably also hear.
Dan: HEY, EYEFACE! GET OFF THE ROAD, YOU'LL GET HIT BY A CAR!
Monster: AAAAAEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Dan: Nope, it can't hear us over its own screaming.
Marty: Should we wait for it to stop and try again?
Dan: Something tells me it's not going to stop screaming.
Marty: We should at least get it out of traffic.
Dan: How about instead, I'm gonna make it kick itself in the dick.
Marty: But we should get it out of the way first, and besides it doesn't even have a di-

The monster's screeching abruptly stops as it's torn in two by an unidentified flying object.

Dan and Marty: Dammit.

You get a better look at it as it continues flying and sprinkling blood around; it's a manhole cover. It loops around midair, flying back in the direction it came from.

Rang: Well, Dan and Marty, what's with the snarky tone? Where's the heroic spirit? Where are your costumes? Boy, you two must be new to the business, somebody oughtta show you the ropes!

This wacko's talking big for someone who's probably only had his powers for less than a week.

Add Rang to party: Y/N?

N

"Ha ha, whatever dude, see you later or probably never, we're just going to fuck around with portals and shit"

Tell him that he's probably breaching some copyright law with a name like that.

Ask him if he noticed how that one wasn't actually attacking anyone and just stood there screaming. What if it was a person that got transformed or something?

N
Nah we're good for now. But hey we were about to go eat some Chinese food, want to join us?

costumes cost money and are kind of pain in the ass. You either spend a lot of money to get one made or you spend a lot of time to make one. Plus we're only out for a food run.

Also is there a trash can around here somewhere or a dumpster? If so you could open a portal beneath the dead monster and just dump it into that. Cleans the streets and you don't have to look at it any more.

(N)
Do I feckin' know you, mate?

can't combo our powers too well until our portals have better range.

>>689114
N.

Open a portal under his feet, 'port him to the top of a building or something.

Hah, N.
Make him kick himself in the dick with portals. That's what you get for being a thoughtless killer, dick.

>>689207
>>689199
Maybe if he ends up getting more aggressive, no need to pick fights.

You supress the urge to make him kick himself in the dick. You don't want to pick a fight.
Dan: We'll pass. Besides, what kind of hero goes for the kill when nobody's in immediate danger?

Rang helped you drag the corpse off the street, then went back the way he came from.
Marty: Is there a dumpster somewhere around here?
Dan: No, man. No.
Marty: Well there's got to be one within walking dist-
Dan: That's not what I meant. It feels wrong to just dump it. It'd be... Disrespectful.
Marty: Are you going hippie on me?
Dan: I'm just saying that it's not the same as the one before. This one was timid. It deserves a bit of respect. I don't fucking know, man, just don't fucking dump it with the rest of the trash, it's not right.
Marty: Alright, you're the boss, man. Guess we'll just leave it here and get going?
Dan: Yeah.

You head off towards the Chinese food joint.
What you did was different than Rang. That one was directly threatening the life of an innocent. Praise is nice and all, but you don't need to prove yourself to anyone. You're just doing what good you reasonably can.
Right?

After a bit of walking (and floating), you hear commotion around the corner.
Girl: Oh y... you two have powers. Oh thank God. You have t... The police won't be here fast enough, you have to go fight that thing.
She continued running before you could ask her anything.

Marty: We have to at least take a look.
What will you do?

Punch girl in the face.

Knock her unconscious in case this is a trick, and then deal with the monster.

Tell her to show you the way and describe what you'll be up against.

>>689322
It's not a trick. there's another terrified person in the background.

>>689323
she's already run off though, how bout making a portal view port?

>>689320
Ugh, fiiiiiiiiiine.

She asked us to help, we should probably help out.

Look around the corner with portals.

Portal view the thing, ask what that girl got, powerwise, and if it is big or has thick limbs, we aid evacuating citizens until we get bored/ someone else helps out.

Port peek.

>>689320
At least take a look.

Use portal to spy around corner.

Using a portal, you look around the corner.

Oh boy.

welp looks like someone(thing?) rose from the dead, kickass time again?

Just sever the legs. Easy.

Oooh, that guy looks like bad news.
But yanno what would be great? Eye poke! Portal eye poke that guy. Even better if Marty can repel like a stick or something into that eye. Like a Video game!

can you just pull the portal infinite loop thing and then just remove the bottom portal once it gets going to full speed. I know we just bitch about that guy killing the other one but I'm getting hungry damnit.

>>689338
Oh lordy, that guy killed her baby...

Portal its foot into its face.

two of the same kind? that makes me less inclined to think these are 'random monsters'

Marty: It's the truth.
Dan: Whatever.

She seems confident enough to stand on that monster for a smoke break. Do you walk over to her (+Marty mood) or head for the Chinese food joint (-Dan nagging)?

let's grab some food first. Shit's kinda moving fast so it might be nice to actually plan on what the hell we should actually be trying to do other then grab some breakfast without having to fight a monster ever other block.

>>689369
Go talk to her.

we could always split up right?

Chinese food > Death by suffocation

Let's go eat already, she seems to have this under control.

talk/hit on

Approach, but stay out of the monster's reach.

Hey, if you put a portal under each foot, your foot could stand on your other foot. and you could lift both portals up to fly!

>>689369
'Sup.

Approach her, introduce yourselves as fellow empowered and thank her for incapacitating the creature for you.

If she's amiable enough, provided that Marty promises to keep his Internet-tier input to a minimum, invite her for some Chinese after you dispose of the monster.

We should ask her if there's a lot more of these things around or if we have time to go get some Chinese food. I mean seriously, we know jack shit about how bad the situation is besides that we're running into a lot of superpowered folks around here. If things are decent we invite her to join us and talk about it.
