There are some differences between our worlds. We don't usually know what we are until we're somewhere around your age, and finding out is usually pretty violent and traumatic.
But no one made us what we are. It's manifesting something in us already.
And there's no war going on with us stuck needing to pick a side, the way there was for you.
That's the part that makes me so angry about your world. It's natural. It's literally what mankind has been doing since... forever. Just on a much faster scale.
Sometimes I get why people fear me. It makes me angry to think about them fearing you and Jean and everyone else in your world. It's so dumb.
Which yeah, life is dumb and not fair. Trust me. I know but still.
I'm glad you have others and hope you always have. I hope you always do.
In absolute defense of those people, people can and do die when kids manifest abilities. I nearly killed about a city block worth of people.
And yeah, the last one left isn't desirable. I spent a while with a too close look at someone who was only interested in the survival of the fittest. It's nasty. Having a community helps.
By no intent or choice of your own. A lot of people do things that can kill, and they do it intentionally and start wars and yet blaming children for something that happens naturally? Naw.
Be upset it happens but not at the kids that do it.
Unless you're going to tell me you intended to take out a city block. Which I don't believe.
Sometimes you don't have a choice though and just try and do the best you can with what community you have. What I'm trying here, and back home.

Most importantly we're not alone.
Not being alone helps a lot with the freak thing.

Trust me. Being the only one left? Sucks.

Wait, you're making quota, right?
[Oh how the tables have turned. ]
