Cam let out a startled, awed laugh as the gourd exploded. "Oh man! That's awesome."
And maybe a little cruel? How much can living plants feel pain? If Cam saw Wessex do that to an animal, they'd be disgusted and horrified, but it was just pumpkin guts. Even if they were alive. Cam decided to push off any ethical concerns for now and just focus on how impressive Wessex's abilities were.
"Ohhh yeah," Cam said, grinning as they punted the larger gourd. "We have cyborgs. Well, only in fiction -- we don't have the technology yet to make real cyborgs. Though there is some amazing research into prosthetics ... Anyway, would you call yourself a cyborg? I'm guessing the Voice gave you that power too?"
Seeing Wessex explode a gourd just by glaring at it was a pretty good advertisement for the benefits of becoming Ascended.
