YOLF:
Yusho

Spiderwebs of electricity flew inside Yusho's pupils. He voiced his next questions without shadow nor tremble to his tone.

"What does that mean to you? Are you going to hunt humans and feast on lives to grow? Listen to me. You may not think yourself weak now, but you're far from strong."

yinsukin:
Roman

Roman thought back to earlier when he tried to manhandle Val after the transformation but she barely registered him.  He didn't even think she noticed.  Then again, she was the king of vampires.

"Yeah right.  I may not be the strongest in the city, but i'm at least stronger than these bozos in the park.  It was absolutely worth it.  I mean now that i'm strong I can figure all that out right?"

Truth was, he didn't know what it meant to him. 

YOLF:
Yusho

Yusho pinched his beard, trying very hard to not use all his strength in pulling.

"That mindset is what had you whining about your lot in life not five minutes ago, even after acquiring the inhuman strength you so wanted. Don't be disingenuous." Yusho shook his head and scowled at him. "If you don't know what power you truly hope for, or what the path you're claiming to walk means, then you should start figuring it out now."

yinsukin:
Roman

"What are you talking about?!  I'm not being disingenuous!" he said with a glare.  "This mindset is what got me to find you and Valarie.  Its whats going to get me the power I desire, whatever that is.  Who cares about the mindset so long as I can move forward.  Thats tenacity in of itself isn't it?  I mean, maybe everyone else has talent, but if I just move forward no matter what, I can get something... anything.  I'd take an echo of what I want just to have a taste."

Roman sighed.  "I just want to know what it feels like to be special."

YOLF:
Yusho

"The problem isn't that you keep going, it's that you say you have a goal but you don't care that you have no idea where you're going to get there!" Yusho's rebuke drummed through Roman's ears as the man closed the distance and clasped his shoulder. The exalted's forehead was an ugly knot where his scowling eyebrows met, but his gaze was clear.

"There are many ways to be special. And I can still help you with that. Having the ability to keep going, regardless of the difficulties, is an important thing. But you can't just buy into what you tell yourself, and you can't let this go to your head."
