"This isn't just about what you have a specific talent for, or what is or was Your Thing," Edith began explaining to Sapphire.
"It is in fact completely irrelevant. Detective Holmes here can actually remember everything she has ever heard, seen and possible also everything else she has experienced with any of her other senses."
Edith paused and looked from Sapphire to Erin.
"Like every detail of what underwear she wore on her 18th birthday, the words to every song she danced to on prom night. It's like her brain is an almost limitless hard drive, or maybe more like a cloud drive that she can search through in seconds."
Edith was of course no less impressed by the quick drawing of the periodic table that she double checked on her phone and found to be correct in every detail.
Edith shook her head No. She had not heard anyone laughing, at least not that stood out from the drone of students coming and going in the corridor outside. At the same time she was thinking to herself that it was not entirely fair that some of the people in Westbrook had been affected with more than one superiour ability while others had not been affected at all. Not that she actually wished she too had been affected though it would have been cool to have one, invisibility perhaps or maybe something in the telepathy or telekinesis department.
"Weird indeed," she agreed even though she was unsure that Detective Holmes was aware that she had spoken the words in Spanish.

"Not a costume I'm afraid," Su-Ji confirmed with a hint of a smile on her otherwise serious face.
It was not a stretch for The Dean to assume it might be since she was known to sometimes dress up as if everyday was Halloween or some kind of Cosplay event. She had on more than one occasion shown up to school wearing cat ears or elaborate make up to make her face look feline, or sometime like a skull, or an elf or fairy, ears included. This somewhat unconventional approach to clothes and general appearance went far back with Su-Ji. Even in primary school she had stood out with some rather extravagant style choices but it was in her early teens, when she began to drift towards a more Gothic style, that it became something of a regular thing. She had, for instance, shown up to her first day at Westbrook High wearing a straight black silk dress reaching down to her ankles, that she had made from a pair of curtains, with her long black hair in braids and her face painted like a smiling skull. Almost the entire school had at some point that day called her a freak, all except for Ginger.
"The second you say?" she asked and tilted her head to the right side as she often did when her curiousity was piqued.
She had of course seen a few of the people that had been affected by the meteor already but the only one she could think of that had had their physique altered was Alex, whom she knew because the kid had had a rather passionate crush on her all through high school. Alex however was still in high school which sort of meant that there was no way they would be on Dean Wilcox radar.
"Yes. You basically just missed Ms Bennett walking out of here looking a lot like her pet terrier, fur and all."
The dean then turned his attention to Ginger's proposal and Su-Ji soon found herself holding the forms she needed to fill out regarding Nefertiti. She looked them over and began to fill in the relevant information. Nefertiti was 13 years old, a black female Norwegian Forest Cat. She had had all her shots. She then sent her mom a text asking her to forward the journal copies of Nef's last two check ups. When her mom responded by asking why she needed them she explained that as of that morning she was moving into the Fratority: I kind of need some time to myself right now, she explained without explaining why.
"Well. I don't really know what else to add to that," she said and looked up at the dean when Ginger suggested she herself should explain why she wanted to claim her room at the Fratority.
She was after all used to being called a freak but that was when she had a choice which she tried to explain the difference between.
"Before when people made remarks like that I shook them off without much care and maybe came in to school looking relatively normal for a few days, just to show them that I was no more a freak than they were, or, perhaps more often, exaggerated the next few days. I'm sure Ginger remember a few days into our senior year of high school when I came to school with horns glued to my forehead. They were just small protrusions of course but enough to become the focal point of my face. These however," she said and pulled on her whiskers.
"are not clued on. They are part of me, as is the tail and these as well."
She smiled and showed Dean Wilcox her feline fangs.
"And that ... that makes it all different because before when I was being called a freak, or weird, that was a choice I made every morning when I got dressed and put on my make up. What happened today at lunch though ... that would be almost like someone calling a black kid "Nigger" or maybe more like making fun of someone's gender identity, or consciously misgendering them. I also feel like I need a place to sort of hide out while I figure out how to break this to Mom."
Having filled out all the relevant details about Nefertiti she signed it and handed it to Ginger.
"Luckily there are also people like Marko on campus," she added in conclusion.
