[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.)))

and barrys power is sucking the fun and joy out of any situation
it is pretty useful actually
he was a key player in taking down this paychotic clown we dealt with a while back

[taumangaria]

Oh, I thought his power was the ability to make logical sense.

[Watch out, land shark has sass.]

[turntex]

so youre saying you thought the most special thing about him was an ordinary human level of rational thought
ouch
sorry barry youre cool and all but like brainy kinda renders you obsolete

[taumangaria]

Oh, no. I just thought it was a rare ability, given that some people here seem to notably lack it.

[Just gonna deadeye the camera here, don't mind him.]

[turntex]

nah its not rare
we just have an excess of complete morons
idiots spilling out of every orifice god where do they all come from
cant even walk five feet without tripping over yet another dumbass sprawled across a hall because the act of standing upright and maintaining balance is too much for them
i mean have you actually talked to grif yet

[rushing_by]

I'm sorry, I couldn't really catch that over all the noise. I'm busy vacuuming all the fun out of the room.

[It's not said harshly. Barry doesn't really have it in him to go for biting sarcasm, outside of a few people he really doesn't like. Dave isn't on that list.]
