Okay, first off, most people here could not kick your ass. I had to play dirty in the bunker and let you stab me to keep you where I needed you when you were blind, while I was literally made for battle and had tentacles growing out of me. You are at minimum in the upper half. More likely upper quarter with the forcing people to shapeshift against their wills, that is a spell that has broken many an TTRPG and that's when enemies could make saving throws. Combined with teleportation to allow you to get in close to touch, you are an extremely dangerous person to deal with.

And even if mystic powers were negated, you can pick up Raph without magic. Without powers, it puts you up a lot higher because presumably everyone wouldn't have any.

Second, I will not retract my disgruntled huff because Tryse is also of the opinion that even when someone is literally telling you 'everything is over and done with' to your face, you should still be able to divine you are being deceived.

...the especially, especially is because she can go long, and I have personal experience that its...very hard to follow things when your head is screaming. Its not a pleasant feeling.

[ hey, what?

wait a second. what. what?

... blind and with her powers severely on the fritz in that particular fight, but also, for real: what? ]

I'm not dangerous and I'm definitely not upper half, let alone upper quarter, Donnie, what the fuck. You spent that whole fight actively trying to avoid hurting me, I wouldn't have lasted more than a minute otherwise -

[ mathlady ]

You were also blind and powers on the fritz and also had been recently drugged.

And I still had to let you stab me to hinder your will to fight.

If you wish for an entire threat analysis, I can go on, I have spreadsheets somewhere.

But the basic gist is you have a a strong base that means you're able to adapt no matter the sudden limitations so that you are not easily taken out by the surprise factor, and your abilities have such versatile utility and a nonlinear use that makes them affective even against people with the power to nuke an entire planet because its not about raw power, its about changing the circumstances.

A threat analysis-?

[ a perfectly donnie thing for donnie to do, but korone's having Logic Error Issues right now ]

I - what -

[ what? ]

I feel like I can't do math again.

[ so sayeth korone, who is kind of ridiculously good at all things numerical ]

I have a threat analysis on everyone. I have them on Raph, Leo, and Hunter too.

That's a terrible way to be, math is great.

[ with a little whine into the pillow, one that sounds almost pained, ]

Couldn't do math for months. At all. Lost it when my soul got shattered. Someone'd try to teach me and I'd know what they were saying, but it didn't, wouldn't, couldn't make sense.

Months? [A squawk.]

I couldn't count for a day and a half and it was torture.

Months.

It sucked. I hated it. I couldn't do cartwheels, either, or tie my hair in pigtails, and a bunch of other stuff. But the math. The math hurt me.

[ uuuugh ]

I could never imagine trying to function that long. [He shudders.]

[ bends an arm around to pat him ]

[ ... try to pat him.

it only works so well. ]

You'd find a way.

That's kinda how I feel right now, though? Dunno know how much is the amnesia disconnect or the brain damage or my track record for getting my ass kicked, but - you just melted my brain.
