So, uh, were did my abilities go?

What do you mean? None of them were applicable to the situation except for Fists of Fury and that was negated due to the Knuckles Busted condition. Except for RAGE FACE, in a way, but you didn't pass out from pain, you passed out from blood loss. Can't just ignore that

I'm debating whether I should try and help out Andrew or head on. I mean, Vlad's all about THE MISSION, but he and Andrew also have a bond unlike no other.

Forced Break & Entry (+1 to actions involving breaking things)
Hyper Focus (+1 concentration. 2 of 6 uses)

These come to mind. And I've had the unchanging busted knuckles for two months now.

Forced Break & Entry implies more inanimate objects. Hyper Focus, as it has a limited number of uses, implies that you need to actively decide to use it as opposed to it being a passive. Blame Yolady for the unchanging knuckles

I'd rather waste some ammo then walk into a ambush. Better safe then sorry.

He was referring to Torrent's earlier action, which included some comment on "THERE ARE SO MANY (LIVE) ENEMIES"

Ah, ok. Nevermind then.

Yeah my bad. Removed.
