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.))

Funny. We've got all that too. As far as I go, I'm pretty damn impressive.

[He pauses, going for deliberate drama.]

Unless you mean what am I if not human. Then the answer is still the same, but it's also turian.

I don't know, but I feel like people here are more likely to have considered the circumference of Master Chief's forearm than say, my thigh.

I've never actually held a gun before in my life, so I'll have to take your word on that. But that sounds really interesting. Maybe eventually you'll be able to just...take things apart and reassemble the pieces to make something completely different.

[whyarewehere]

...Yeah, okay, that's a good point.

[ Master Chief is just ridiculous. ]

Congratulations on your not-blowing-everything-up.

[whyarewehere]

I don't know dude, the mandibles kind of ruin it. They have mandibles too, right?

[ Grif holds up a hand near to the side of his face and mimes one. ]

Anyway, as long as you're not looking to blow up the Earth or whatever, we're cool. Aliens back home had that problem a lot.

Well, I went to the cafeteria and had some, and it was pretty good.

So . . . thanks!

[Grif has Made a Difference good job Grif]

If you ever want to play together, I'd like to do that. What's your name?

[bachido]

I think that would be good. When would you like to?

It's the instrument I play!

It's been a long time; I'll take you up on it, but I may make you run away! My name is Hina-- Miku.

It probably would, y'know. If you don't mind him working in emergency rescue, anyways. Flight gets him to emergency situations quickly, his rocket fists can clear heavy debris, and the carbon fiber armor would protect him from being harmed by anything that might fall on him.

Thankfully, I have little need for further superpowers. My skill with a sword is more than up to the task.

[the_civilian]

[ He kind of is. Tadashi's thigh probably is about as big around as Master Chief's forearm. ]

Thanks! I'm pretty pleased with myself. Fingers crossed I don't backslide.

The rocket fists apparently saved my brother's life, so I can't really fault him for it. It just wasn't what I originally planned when I designed him; otherwise I would have given him skin made of something sturdier than vinyl.
