I wouldn't want to agree to this...I mean, it's easier, for sure, but it doesn't seem right. Great, now I sound like some kind of idealist.[/i] Ryan looks up at the ceiling, indecision apparent on his face. [i]Well, for one thing, I don't think Mr. McCallister would approve of this, and it's his judgement that got me on Legacy. Screw it, I've done enough things that I regret today.[/i] Ryan looks at him cooly now, eye to eye. "I'm sorry, sir," he says, as he reaches down to retrieve the paperwork. "But we both know that isn't why I came here today. I'm going to have to decline." Ryan sits straight up in his chair, swallowing nervously, a useless reaction. "I could have used my powers, and those of my friends, to hide, most likely, until I could go home.
