Charlie; Meet the Farm

[humanzippo]

Oh, jeez that ground is rushing toward them fast. Charlie lands awkwardly, even if her ride sets down relatively easy, and lets do only to end up on her behind again. She'll stay that way for a couple minutes too, trying to take in the scene before her

Comments

[hardlydangerous]

One 6'2" thirty-year-old former President, blessing the past five years for giving him the patience to endure this kid until she finally coughs up whatever her last power is.

No sign of this shows on his face as he solicitously asks, "Want me to get you anything from the house? I hear they have fruit."

[humanzippo]

Patience is a virtue, Sylar. The narration thinks it would be really funny if Charlie spent the next five years not using her primary ability.

"Might be a good idea to introduce ourselves first. So no one gets shot."

She's had experience with that.

[hardlydangerous]

"They don't do much shooting around here, unless the place has changed a lot in the past week. I'm not terribly welcome, but I cn take care of myself."

Yes, even if he gets shot. Thank you, Claire Bennet.

"If you see someone who looks like he could be me minus a decade or so, that's one of the Gabriels. There are two. I told you this place had to be seen to be believed."

[humanzippo]

"I'll bet you can," she mutters. It's not that he looks particularly dangerous, actually. Almost the opposite in fact. Charlie has had a lot of experience reading people, and the fact that she can't read Sylar completely makes her very nervous.

"Thank you. I don't forget those who've helped."

And with that she climbs to her feet, body posture tense for the next confrontation. This place reminds her of the Manders farm.

[shockinglycute]

There is a New Human.

This requires investigation.

From a distance. So it's mostly sniffing investigation.

"pika..."

[humanzippo]

Okay...

That's definitely not a normal animal by any stretch of the imagination.

(Charlie has an extremely good one, too.)

"... Hi ..."

[shockinglycute]

No nets, not attacking. SO FAR SO GOOD!

"Pikapi..." It ambles a bit closer. "Pika?"

[humanzippo]

No attacking on this end!

Not unless she thinks the creature will harm her.

What? "Pika?"

[waylostandfound]

There is someone else who can fly very fast, (cuz Sylar's a murderous copycat) and he was returning to the farm. Circling around to come in for a landing.

[humanzippo]

Sylar is already long gone by the time Nathan pulls his vulture act, but that only means Charlie is pressed back against the front door, watching her second flying dude of the day.

It's like a damn club.

[waylostandfound]

Hey he would point he's the original "Flying Man", trademark pending, courtesy of Nakamura Industries...

He then descended smoothly back on the ground, glancing around.

"Afternoon," civil nod of greeting.

[humanzippo]

"Yeah."

Charlie steps away from the door, arms crossed over her chest.

"You live here? No one's answering my knocks."

[transbender]

"The only way to fly?" Thomas peers at the new arrivals. He's hoping, again, that powers mean aces, but probably not. "Er, hi."
