Yeah, it was major surprises all around right then, wasn't it? Everyone with "how--who--what?!" going on, and all when I'm waking up.

And hey. While I've got fangs and claws on funny toes, and neat pointy ears, and don't much care for wearing shoes now, it's nothing too weird to wake up with on the grand scale of superpowers. (And there's some heightened vision and hearing and smell, but it isn't overwhelming)

I do miss my empathy, and I'm also really glad I wasn't somewhere underwater or something when all of this decided to kick in.
