[video][mingle post] Show Me Your Moves: Redux

[whyarewehere]

[ Grif is in one of Legion World's lounges. There's a space future pool table behind him, set up for a game. ]

Hey Legion, how's it going?

[ Wait. No. He holds up a hand. ]

Rhetorical question, don't answer that, it's not what I'm here for. What I'm here to talk to you about today is superpowers.

[ He's found his stride, and taken an almost public-service-announcement tone. ]

Do you have strange new abilities since coming to space? Were you just extra cool before the rest of us and nothing changed? Cause I definitely want to know what you guys got in the Time Trapper lottery and please make it look as awesome as possible.

[ He grins a little. Superpowers are the best. ]

For those of you who are new, which is most of who I'm talking to here? I'm Grif. Doubletime if you want to go all codename on me but... Grif. Really. Sometimes I look like this:

[ He scoops a space-age looking helmet painted bright orange off the floor, presumably, then drops it again with a thunk. It's armor, he's not gonna break it, right? ]

And me? I got this.

[ Grif disappears in an orange blur and suddenly, the pool table clears itself in a flurry of indistinct motion. He comes back down from super speed and casually leans the cue against it. If anyone bothers to slow that down, it was an absolutely disgraceful display and he cheated at least six times. Grif is super smug. ]

So yeah. I kind of got the best power already? Sorry.

[ Oh right, there was something else he wanted. ]

And everybody else? Uh. Anything new that's cool? ...Or just tell me how the last mission went for you. I got to go into the past and wrestle Batman and stuff. He's kind of a dick, honestly.

((( This is a free for all mingle post! Grif will reply to everyone who responds, but this also an invitation to threadjack. If you want to have a character jump into a thread somewhere with anyone else you are absolutely welcome and, in fact, encouraged. This is set after Gods Among Us / To Have And To Hold / The Other Mother and before Time Ripples, so it is slightly backdated to give characters a chance to meet the regular versions of each other before the nonsense begins.
If there's anything I can do to improve your dumb Grif-assisted minglepost experience, feel free to ping me at zitasaurusrex.)))

...how did he get it into the Batcave without anyone noticing?

[circusbat]

Now THAT is a question for the ages.

Honestly, I have no idea. B never told me and I spent HOURS trying to figure it out. Best I could come up with was that he used the Batplane or Batcopter to get it AND the T-Rex in at different times. It's basically the largest opening into the cave.

[rushing_by]

Huh. That's probably the best explanation. I still find the entire keeping trophies thing a little weird, though.

The only thing we ever had on display in the lab besides my suit was the Flash helmet from Earth 2, and we ended up giving that to Jay Garrick when he went back home to Earth 3.

[circusbat]

Huh. So, Jay Garrick's not actually from your world? That's kind of a new one on me. He was the first Flash in my world, well before our Barry got hit by lightning.

[And here, Dick coughs a bit.]

To be honest. The penny probably would have been the only one, but I thought the T-Rex was cool and then it kind of became a thing.

[rushing_by]

Yeah, that's kind of a recurring theme with my Earth. For instance, the version of Gorilla City I know is over on Earth 2, but Grodd is from my universe. And the only Kryptonians I knew of before I came here live over in Earth-38. I ended up there on accident once and ended up becoming pretty good friends with Kara. Still haven't met her cousin, though.
