In PGR it does, because controlling the virus can only be done if you're an Ascendant or Agent, and Ishmael and SKK in particular are verbatim stated to be Agents (aka the highest level) also, if they didn't have resistance then attempting to control it would cause them to be affected because well...the Punishing Virus is, first and foremost, a virus which corrupts other things

Couldn't they just be controlling it to stop it from affecting them? Like, if you can control fire, you don't need to resist; you can just make the fire not burn you.

Oh okay I see what you mean, maybe the explanation was lacking then. While this is true, Lee resists the Twins time slow and resists his own time slow as well (hence why he can move within it), Primal Projection, like him is also resistant to his time slow. I could clear that up, however if it still doesn't suffice then it can be removed

Yeah, I don't think this would be layered.

Yes, but not in the way you're thinking, the more specific and apt analogy here is that controlling fire still requires some material to resist it, whether that's a torch, metal, or what have you. In this example, they themselves would be those tools capable of resisting it, which allows them to utilize said "fire" as a result.

I would recommend reading the energy system page, however if you're unable to or simply don't want to, then I can send scans to support this when I get back home as I'm still at work, just replying cuz I'm on my break

I saw the scan; this should be fine then.
