He was beginning to question the sanity of their members. A reasonable doubt, considering what he had overheard while hauling trash away from yet another homestead being cleared for residency. Eerie snickering could be heard through clenched teeth as he dragged a broken chunk of a table and flung it onto a growing pile of debris. The poltergeist was more than happy to abandon his work for a minute or too and take a break -- despite hardly even making a dent on the absolute disaster the entire camp was. Stretching out stiff claws as he stalked over, Beck flopped onto his flank, resting a scarred chin on muddied paws and dismissing Valo's, to put it politely, oddities with an errant twitch of his ear. "Aw, don't mind 'em, Valo says weird shit like that all the time from what I've learned." Even weirder than the vibrant ooze constantly spilling and dripping from their mouth.
But blurred vision beginning to focus more on Nocturne than the disturbing mutant, Beck's unscathed cheek dropped into a discontented frown at the prompt to introduce themselves with a talent. "I'm guessin' people already told ya that I'm Beck, but just in case -- m'name's Beck, and howdy or whatever. And... huh, never actually thought 'bout it." he admitted with a shrug, mind frantically skimming through useless memories to recall if he was inherently impressive according to Nocturne. He was good at stealing? No. Pissing people off? No. He was good at bashing peoples' heads in? God, no. "Uh, I can do this?" the boy finally offered, rearing his head and completely looking over his shoulder like an owl, lacking any actual vertebrae to snap with the shocking action. Spinning back around to observe a hopefully-awed reaction, the poltergeist gave an awkward grin impaired by a missing cheek and even half-heartedly waved his paws in the air to mock-celebrate the discovery.
