>Inducing 'calmness' would also count as
Empathic Manipulation, since he's altering their emotional state. That said,
this sca in of itself doesn't really support that interpretation, as it's explained that Gyro simply calmed her down, not that he calmed her down specifically by using the Steel Balls. It doesn't actively
contradict that interpretation since it isn't specified
what he did to calm her down exactly, I'll give you that.
I think I did have it as Empath manip? Regardless, it isnt that scan alone, it's that scan+Gyro's father's initial debut (plus some other minor info here and there), if it was only that scan I wouldnt think it'd be emp manip, it's only through the combination of all the scans posted throughout the thread regarding that, do I think it's a thing.
>Just to be absolutely sure, you mean using it's water manip as a form of
X-Ray Vision, not "X-Ray Manipulation" as in a form of
Radiation Manipulation, yes?
From what I can tell he's using the water to cast an X-Ray, hence why it's limited opposed to the shit he can pull off with Scan, he needs water or something to cast the image on. It's both water and x-ray manip (he has water manip from other things though so didnt make a point of it) but it has nothing to do with radiation.
>I mean, at this point, it seems to operate more off of a limited telekinesis, granted one that only works on materials viscous enough to 'spin' around his steel balls. So it's not only beholden to mud, water, etc. Labeling it as such might help save space on the profile and make explaining his powers a bit less complicated, too.
It's definitely not telekinesis, but it basically functions as such, saying it's tk is dishonest even though it's basically functionally the same, it aint like mewtwo or something and we know how Gyro performs those feats, which isnt true tk. Also not limited to strictly liquid like materials but that's the most common application. Do what you will I guess.
>Does he ever do this to his entire body? In the scan you give he only does it to transport/move
parts of his body through spaces that small (which still qualifies him for the power, but just a more limited form of it). Also from how he does it, it's closer to
Size Manipulation than just Small Size, since he's shifting his bigger natural body to an infinitely small space.
It's stated he can hide himself within it, which kinda implies his entire body not just a fraction otherwise that'd be some bad hiding if half his body is sticking out, he does use the hole to move his entire body though from Point A to point B when he first gets it (to avoid getting torn apart, so yes, if he wants, he can suck his entire body through and thus into a hole), Yes I'm aware, the way I have it written out is
Creation of holes or "portals" by shooting himself to
reach a boundary between dimensions, while utilizing these portals Johnny can
reach Small Size (Type 9) as well as
control his body parts freely, also acts as a temporary case of
Dimensional Storage with ACT3.
>As for the "does Johnny's bullets ignore dimensional BFR", I that's like, really straightfoward based off of the scans provided just above, so I'm not sure what's contentious about it.
Beats me, I thought there was gonna be some issues but not with that, the issue stems from Efi disagreeing initially.
