When Ryze walked into the door he caught that he had went to the library, not from reading his mind but observing the books in his hands. It was one of the things he didn't like to do unless he was given permission by Ryze. "Here let me take those for you. Did you get any interesting ones?" He asked curiously as he looked at the spines of the books. Brand set the down on the table next to them, he had gotten so used to Ryze being in the same apartment with him he practically just moved in with him. It wasn't really discussed, fate just worked it's magic and so it was. Brand never wanted to be a part from him and it seemed like they never were apart from one another.<br/><br/>Which is why the group always teased them, asking if they were glued to one another. "Well its not my fault, my telepathy is like a radar. When you pop up on my screen I get all slap happy and excited." Brand said with a blushing red face. "Maybe one day." He said in return to him being surprised, he doubted it but he didn't want to rain on Ryze's parade. "Yes indeedy, I am practicing. Ever since I have learned what I can do with my powers. You know being able to fly. I want to get that good at it. So in order to get good at it, you have to practice." Brand thought that all he would be able to do is simply move things with his mind but the thought of using it to fly was simply astounding to him. "They say once you get to that point you have almost mastered Telekinesis. So to me that tells me it is pretty challenging to actually pull it off."<br/><br/>Brand loved seeing Ryze laugh so couldn't help but grin when he heard him say that their lives were indeed different daily. "Well I should rephrase and say mostly everyone's lives are different. I am a loner remember. I stay up here most of the time. Its better that way so my Telepathy don't act up. Being in crowds was always difficult for me." He said as a matter of factly. "Well the library I took a guess but that is good. Do the good people have any impending doom in their future?" He asked in an over the top tone. Brand smirked as they both seemed to get lost in one another, both staring at each other contently. He quickly ruffled his brown hair when he heard Ryze say that the group would tell him way before they would tell him because of his passive power. That he couldn't do anything.<br/><br/>Brand hated it when Ryze cut himself down or sold himself too short. He arched his eyebrow and suddenly Ryze's chair slid across the floor with a soft squeal and before he knew it Ryze was inches away from his face. "Don't talk about yourself like that Ryze. You can do anything you want to. Your powers don't make up who you are. I wouldn't change a single thing about you, you know. You are perfect the way you are. Besides. I am not the most powerful mutant here, all I can do is read minds and move things with my own." Brand sarcastically waved his fingers and made a even more sarcastic 'Ooooooooh' noise. "I mean don't get me wrong I love my power and it suites me the best. I wouldn't ask for any other power because this one is my own. But like I said. I am not the strongest of the group, just a helpful asset."<br/><br/>Brand cutely reached over and ruffled Ryze's hair, chuckling. "Now how about I cook us something to eat, never know when we are going to be running out the door saving humanity as we know it for nothing, huh?" Brand stood up and stretched, his button up rising a little showing the ivory skin above his waist line. "Do you feel like anything in particular or just whatever?"
