"Yeah," she says. "A few years back, everyone was just, like, normal. Then this big solar flare happened, and a bunch of people got sick and died. The ones that didn't die got all these weird powers. No one really knows if it was like, the flare that did it, or if we were all born this way and the radiation just, like, triggered it. I think we had to have been born this way 'cause it doesn't make much sense otherwise, y'know?" With a shrug, she stubs out what's left of her cigarette.

Most of us have been like this since the flare but now and then you get people who find it out months or years after and they make it this huge deal like oh no poor me I can do something totally awesome like read minds and have super strength and am immortal and shit but I look totally normal and no one can even tell a bloo bloo bloo."
