The hyperhero Halloran knew what he was doing. And it wasn't because he was somehow exceptionally intelligent, but because he had learned the art of presence. He really knew what he was doing. For example, if he was sitting, there was no doubt for a moment that he was lying down. No, Halloran knew he was sitting because he was present. He was constantly present. He had once tried to be in a different place, but even then he quickly found himself there too.
