Oh Tommy's one of the bigger threats here, if it moves him to be one. Doesn't mean he moves himself to be one.

But seriously, dude, what's with the paranoia? Tommy sighs, putting his knife down, and turns to look at the kid.

"Listen, kid, it's like this. It's disturbing for some people, the first time they have an interaction with a speedster in their power. I feel like it's better to give people that information early on, so they don't flip out if I need to use it later. So they understand that in an emergency if they need out of somewhere fast, they can call me. Ain't much here that's going to get you out of a tight corner as reliably."

There's his brother's teleporting, but sometimes that's not as fast.

"It's an important fact of living here, so I put it out there, right from the word go, when I can."
