[Even if it's intended as a joke it's also objectively true. He used to be a lot more lanky before he started his work on Hextech.]
You're changing the subject. If losing control is as dire as you say, then you need something that helps you keep that control other than just tamping down and going to sleep.
[He'd like to argue back that his system works perfectly well, thank you, but there have been several incidents in the recent past (including at least one here in Etraya) where it hasn't been enough. He's frustrated about that, angry at himself for it not being enough.]
[That would be amazing, honestly. Being able to go full throttle without worrying about hurting other people. He doesn't think it's realistic, though.]
I don't think that would work. If I cut loose I'd end up destroying everything and everyone in the bubble, even if I was as far away from the populated areas as possible.

[Get it, because he's muscular???
Okay, that's a half-joke at best and it is objectively pretty terrible, but Accelerator thinks it's kind of funny.]

Then what do you suggest?
no subject
[Which given Ace's physical state, it might not be-]
you could always try controlled destruction.
no subject
You mean do what I do whenever I get into a fight.
[Is that healthy? He has no idea.]
I guess it'd be better than exercising.
no subject
[Not that he knows what Accelerator's like in a real fight. He knows the one they had was mostly staged.]
Cutting loose, away from everyone and everything else, and without the anxiety of having to be on guard in a fight. What do you think?
no subject
I don't think that would work. If I cut loose I'd end up destroying everything and everyone in the bubble, even if I was as far away from the populated areas as possible.
no subject
[Okay, that's not something he considered.]
What if we put you really far underground? Or outside the bubble?
no subject
[He thinks about stuff like that pretty often. Good times.]
Being underground wouldn't matter. There are loads of vectors in a planet I could use.
I still need fucking air, I'd die outside of the bubble without oxygen.

Option three: meditation?
no subject
Meditation?
no subject
[Does he look like a guy who's ever meditated? In his life?]
no subject
There's no fucking way I'd be any good at it. I may as well try exercising, I'd have a better chance of succeeding at that than I would meditating.
no subject
[He'll have to think about what exercises Ace can handle, but it's definitely something he's more versed in than "mindfulness."]
Anything off limits?
cw: ableist language
I don't know. I'm crippled, so I can't do basic shit like running.
no subject
[There's a reason he's so top-heavy. Built like a triangle.]
How about arm stuff?
no subject
I need my right hand for my crutch if I'm standing or moving around. If I'm sitting or lying down then I don't need it.
