“Boom Boom, for instance, was an excellent outside-the-box thinker. Asa thought Boom Boom was a great strategist, and brilliant. The problem with Boom Boom is that he’s kind of a creep. He had attracted the Academy’s scouts when he built a bomb and blew up a bank. The feat had required certain mental abilities, but it also showed a deficit in others. Anyone who commits an act like that has issues with mentally putting themselves in other people’s shoes. Boom Boom had also killed his childhood dog. Knowing these things made Asa uncomfortable around his former teammate.”

“For example, even if a human hasn’t ever been in contact with a snake, and doesn’t know that snakes can be venomous, the human will have an innate fear of slithering, hissing, scale-covered creatures on the ground. Likewise, most humans will fear heights even if they are properly strapped into a harness, or mutated to have wings.”
