| 2 | ->The spectators oohed and aahed appropriately as [[DumbMuscle Kammler]] [[MindOverMatter levitated an anvil]], [[AntiVillain Klaus]] [[IntangibleMan walked through it]], [[SmugSuper Reinhardt]] [[PlayingWithFire reduced it to a puddle of slag]]. They embraced the suggestion that overcoming one's limitations was the province of all Germans. They clapped when the men from the [[{{Ghostapo}} Reichsbehörde]] demonstrated their immunity to small-arms fire, each in his own spectacular fashion. And they cheered the lie: how simple it was, how ''pleasant'' it was, to become more than human. |
| 3 | ->Klaus and the others took care to keep [[BodyHorror their wires]] hidden. They had learned in Munich that the prospect of brain surgery dampened people's enthusiasm. |

| 6 | ->I smiled at him. "I can [[{{Telepathy}} see you]] looking at a flock of sheep, and three days later, half of them are dead. I can see you getting a clip round the ear from an old man, who then falls and breaks his leg. I can see a burning hayrick, sorry, no, make that three. Antisocial little devil, aren't you?" |
| 7 | ->The tears in his eyes were pure rage, and I softly mumbled ''[[MagicalIncantation lorica]].'' But he didn't lash out, as I'd have done at [[ChildMage his age]], as I did during this very interview. He just shook his head and muttered about proof. "I don't need proof," I said. "I've got a witness: you." I waited three heartbeats, and then said, "And it's all right. I'm on your side. [[OurMagesAreDifferent You're one of us]]." |

| 11 | ->Time is ticking so I'll cut straight to the chase. I work in talent acquisition, specializing in a highly unconventional sector for [[TheIlluminati a very particular client]], and they're particularly interested in [[FunctionalMagic your kind of talent]]: fucking stuff up, putting it back together, altering the fabric of space and time - basic thaumaturgy. My client is only interested in the best of the best. That's where I come in. Your talent is raw, but it's... obvious. My client has the means [[TrainingTheGiftOfMagic to refine that talent]] and make the most of what you've got, and I'm not talking about money. Well, not ''just'' money: protection, power, the best parties in the biz. We're prepared to give you a unique opportunity, a chance to prove you've got what it takes to hang with the big boys and girls - ''to rule the world.'' [[DareToBeBadass It's up to you to grab that opportunity by the balls]]. |
