Isolation.... cubicles... She thinks about all her co-workers, and how solitary their existence is. They're all part of a flawed hive already, just one that isn't collectivized... She can fix that...
Her thoughts seem dimly alien to her, but she had lost all point of reference from the stressful breakdown she had had in that "nightmare." She remembered the beforetimes without emotion, and couldn't really connect with herself from before.
And so, grabbing the fireman and pulling him off into a corner seemed just as normal as ordering a side of fries at a fast food joint.
The fireman cries out as he is pulled. That small part of Kaitlyn's mind that still has control over all her bearings may notice she's a lot stronger now. The rest of the fire crew try to help, but as if on some unheard command, Kaitlyn's co-workers rush to intercept them.
"W-What do you want?" the fireman asks, looking rather frightened.

Is there anything you can't do?" she asks, reaching the exit and leaving the museum. "And, while I'm thinking up questions you probably won't answer, why did you save me? What exactly is in it for you?"
I am very near your human definition of omnipotent, so no. And... you will soon see.
The clothes poof out, becoming rather frilly as they fuse together, becoming one piece of cloth. What was once Paul's pants explode out, becoming what looks like a dress. It's obsidian black, which contrasts rather nicely with her pale skin and white hair. The sleeves grow longer, encasing her arms as a black hairband appears in her hair, keeping her hair off her face.

Dan tries to sday that, certainly. But as she tries, her tongue becomes thick and heavy in her mouth. Almost like another person was occupying her body, she instead says, "Of course! What will you have?" in a sultry purr. The man who walked in, a man in a suit, probably in middle management goes a bit red and sits at the bar.
"S-Some red wine please..." he mutters, his eyes glued to Dan's chest.

He just continues to stare... as a woman who works in a cubicle near Matthew's wordlessly offers Matthew an open compact with a mirror.
Should he look into it, Mathtew would see a young girl looking back. An adorable young girl with big blue eyes, a button nose and long straight blonde hair that reaches down her back.
Matthew may note that he(?) has drawn quite a crowd. Several people-his workmates!-are gathered around him(?), all staring in shock.
