Leppu falls to his back after being pushed, but doesn’t bother to get up, “never said I did… But I guess I did make that the implication.” He adjusts his goggles and mumbles”It’s just that all my friends always say I’m useless trash.” Leppu raises his voice and speaks with confidence, “but those people just suck, so the people who say you suck, they just suck even more!” Leppu pauses for a second and with even more cofidence says, “well, I forgot where I was going with this, but you get the picture, right? So don’t cry, and I am not gonna move from this spot until you are happy again.” Leppu crosses his arms, still laying on the floor.

Leppu, somewhat surprised, steps away from the wall he was leaning on. He sits in front of Barnaby for a second, then awkwardly hugs him, “it’s alright buddy…” He pauses, trying to think of a way to reassure Barnaby, but could only come up with the lame response of “it’s ok, I’m useless too.”
-
Leppu gently pats the top of his head, “You sleepy? Probably not the best place to take a nap…” Leppu leans against the wall opposite Barnaby and scratches the top of his head, “Well, what are we supposed to do now?”
-
“Ah! Its the River Goddess!” He goes into a self-defensive position he likely got from an old kung-fu movie until Skylar vanishes from sight, “Its weird how we keep bumping into her and then she leaves like 2 seconds later, I bet shes an Organization spy sent to keep tabs on me, right, Bar-” He cuts himself off, seeing Barnaby staring at the wall, “Hey what’s up man? Is there like a secret passage there?” Leppu starts staring at the wall, “Is it something your All-Seeing Eye of God showed you?”
-
<p style=”text-align: left;”>”Hey, calm down man, I didn’t mean nothin by that, don’t get so worked up.” Leppu pats Barnaby on the back, “anyway, we need a cool name for your power…. I got it! You have the power of the ALL-SEEING EYE OF GOD!” He yells loud enough for the people in the above decks to hear.</p>

“Ehhhhh?!?” He grabs a handful of his hair, “You too?” Leppu sniffles, “So everyone I talked to today has superpowers…. I’m so alone…” He says with joking desperation.
-
“Yep! They’re super cool…” Leppu puffs his cheeks indignantly, “Well, I have powers too, bu if I told you, your brain would explode from how cool it is, so its top secret! Thats why I seem like I dont, BUT I actually do!”
-
“Guess you don’t talk much, huh? Kinda a wierd guy, but at least you don’t have superpowers like floaty here and river goddess.” Leppu says, pointing at Lawrence with the floaty comment.
-
“I am Leppu, lord of the Andromedon! Nice to meet you, formally, that is.” He grinned widely and wrung out his bandana, “damn river goddess, I’m gonna be drenched for the rest of the day…”
-
Leppu smiles brightly, “it’ll be fine! It’s hard to forget something as important as that forever! But until then, I’ll call you…uh…” Leppu pauses for a moment, “ah, never mind that, I’ll tell you when I come up with one. But do you remember if your name starts with an a or a b or a zolpho or an exxon or a c…” He continues going through the alphabet, half the letters he lists being ones that don’t exist.

“So if you die in the and you die in real life… I forget what movie that was from, I just know it was bad, but that’s a bummer I was gonna kill myself just to see what it was like.” Windy mumbles sarcastically under her breath to mostly herself, “you guys’s crazy rubbed off on me, good job.”
-
Leppu tilts his head to the side, “You’ve forgotten? Did the organization wipe your memory? Those bastards…” He pauses for a second, not sure what to say, then with nonchalance bordering on insensitivity says, “oh well, I’m sure you’ll remember sometime, so lets get soda!” He quickly strikes a heroic pose, takes Barnabys hand and breaks into a run.
-
Leppu takes Barnaby’s hand “Thanks, do you wanna get a drink with me? I know a guy who works at the food place and he gives me free stuff sometimes.” He says, his happy disposition returning, “What’s your name, by the way?”
-
Leppu sits up, still dripping wet from the river, “this sucks… I’m gonna get a soda…” He says sadly, wiping a clump of sodden hair from his goggles.
-
Leppu coughs for a moment then says with a scratchy voice and an expression like a scolded dog, “I-I’m sorry…” He paused for a few seconds, waning to say something more but unable to think of anything, “Please…don’t hate me”
