"Okay." Johnny nods. "I mean, I get that." He doesn't offer that the same is true of him - he's used his ability to escape a few bad situations now, or help others do the same. He almost feels selfish, being relieved about it when it's gonna be such an issue for Seth, but then again, Seth doesn't know anything about what he's been through.

"So how... do we find that out?" He shrugs. "I mean I don't know about you, but like... I don't think we can trust either of the organizations out there. I don't know anyone else who would know what's going on. Maybe except Gabe." He clenches his fingers tightly around his arm. He feels not only lonely, but helpless without Gabriel around. And now the little defense he had has been taken away. Yeah, he's definitely seeing the advantages to his power now.
