Hey guys, girls, and anybody who may not identify as either. We've had a rough few days. Which is understating things by a lot, but I really don't want to get into an itemized list of how bad it's been.

So, I'm tossing up an introduction and meeting log so we have a way to get our minds off of it for a little while, and so we can get to know each other better. I know Grif usually handles this sort of thing, but it's been a while since he did, and it seemed like a good idea.

For anyone who hasn't done this before, just toss in your name, codename powers, a couple things you want us to know about you, and anything else you wanna talk about.

I'm Barry Allen, the Flash, and I have superspeed. I'm also a CSI, and I really like pepperoni, olive, and jalapeño pizza.

This is a free for all mingle post! Barry will reply to everyone who responds, but if you want to have a character jump into a conversation with anybody you are absolutely welcome and, in fact, encouraged. Feel free to have characters ignore the point, talk about other things, etc etc. Threads are assumed to be public unless you mark them otherwise. This is set after No Insanity Clause and Silent Horizon.))

Miku Hinasaki, Recall, telekinect...tic? (I have no idea what it is supposed to be) shield, retrocognition.

My favorite pizza is:
Teriyaki chicken, cheese, onions, corn, mushrooms, parsley, and seaweed.

Telekinetic. It basically means you can physically affect things that you're not actually touching, through use of your mind. Like a Jedi.

Re: [text]

[ghost_bait]

It's just the shield, though. I can't seem to make it do anything else. No laser swords, you know.


:( I bounced people off of my shield in my last mission, and I don't know how to go about apologizing for it.

[whyarewehere]

If it makes you feel better, I didn't understand anything about what Barry just said except for "Jedi".

Which... Barry's a nerd, so.

[ghost_bait]

I didn't see any of the movies, but it was popular for a while.

[whyarewehere]

Hey, cool, now I don't have to do this!

[ Grif rocks back in his chair, hands behind his head, in a gesture of utmost sloth. ]

Alright. Grif, Doubletime, also superspeed, basically I'm awesome. I kinda don't do the work thing most of the time, so this is a plus for me.

[rushing_by]

...great, now I feel like I'm enabling you.

[whyarewehere]

[ Grif gives the laziest salute anyone's ever given. ]

You give me an advantage, I take it. It's what I'm for.

[bachido]

I'm Kubo, and they call me Paperboy. I'm a storyteller. I have control over paper through my music, and a powerful blast I can play from my shamisen . . . and I don't know what pizza is.

[whyarewehere]

Kubo. Dude. How have you avoided it for so long? I'm horrified.

[bachido]

I think you mentioned it once, but if it's something to avoid, doesn't that mean I'm better off?

[ghost_bait]

I played koto, but I haven't in a long time.

[volving]

What is a... shamisen?

[rushing_by]

Speaking of your music, want to try and get another jam session going at some point?

[meanmonkey]

I am Sariatu. You may call me this. I am a sword master.

[ a pause ]

Also I'm Kubo's mother.

[whyarewehere]

I heard you're also a monkey? Confirm or deny?

[the_civilian]

I'm glad you're here.

Which probably sounds kind of weird without context, but Kubo and I were talking about our parents awhile back, and I'm just glad you two get to be a family again.

Oh, hey, cool. You raised a good kid.

[Tadashi waves at the camera.]

Tadashi Hamada. Sunfire. Fire generation and, still mostly theoretically, control. I was a robotics engineering student back home, and I have a serious hot wing craving right now.

[whyarewehere]

So how is the "control" thing working for you lately? Breakthroughs?

Re: [video]

[rushing_by]

Any interesting projects you were working on?

[volving]

Onigiri. With tuna, or chicken.

[ She hadn't known the name of that food, when she'd been living in Japan, but when she'd asked Oracle about them recently, Oracle had found out what they were called, and a place that made them. ]

That's what I miss.

Why not? I'm Garrus Vakarian, Archangel. Technomancer, still figuring that out, and joining the group that's just discovering pizza.

[the_civilian]

I don't think I've heard of technomancy before, what does that do?

I guess you don't have humans in your universe? Because I think we'd force it on everyone eventually if we did exist.
