008 [video/action if desired for HoA]

[Things seem to be going fairly well around here again, in the House of Awesome and elsewhere in Siren's Port. Raven's had a peaceful few days and has talked to some of the new arrivals. Things seem to be under control. She's been reading for most of the afternoon, and she'd just decided to get up and go down to make herself some tea, when--

[Worked out the private function just for you, Raven.]

Canaries, robins and ravens. I didn't realise birds were so feminine.

[Considerate!

Takes her a second to get this, though, and then she suddenly gets pretty excited. And then restrains herself.]

...are you saying you're from my world?

Well, not exactly. I'm probably from a world a little like yours, only a little different. A little bird told me about your superhero group, though.

... [Hopes kind of up and down here, Clark!]

Right. Right, of course. Girl-Robin told you something. All right, so you must be someone important.

Girl-Robin? So they aren't all--

[Well okay, that's news to him.]

I'm Clark Kent, from Metropolis. Does that mean anything to you?

[She raises an eyebrow at that one.]

The one I know at home isn't, anyway.

[...nope she's the only one here who doesn't know. Though:]

Uh. I think-- oh. Don't you write for the Daily Planet?

[Okay. Big, deep breath.] I do, yes. But there's a little more to it than that. Where are you, now?

[Hey. Your identity is semi-secret for once.]

I'm at the House of Awesome. Uh, if you've heard of that. It's [address texted!]

[She first checks to see if she can sense any hostile emotions from him, just in case, and then thinking she'll maybe get the drop on him, teleports a short distance outside, slightly across the street and hovering about ten feet up, to check him out first.]

[His emotions are soft and warm, even if he is a little anxious. He doesn't know any of the people he's met so far, and it's worrying. He doesn't like being on the back foot.

Clark raises his head, as though hearing something--and he just might be. Oh. Right, she was asking about tea. For a few moments he vanishes, superspeeding out for supplies, and there's a shopping bag in his hand when he comes back, looking as innocent as a grown man who knocks on a door and runs away can look.]

[...Hey. He was just there. And now he's back. And--

Well, there wasn't any magic, was there? It was just, he was there, wasn't, and was back.

She might not know any secret identities, but she certainly knows who this is starting to sound a lot like. And it's a good sign, further, that she didn't sense any harm coming from him.]

...Right. Well, you'd better come in.

[She floats down to the ground and goes to open the door.]

[Well he'd make an excellent - if slow - Flash. In any event he seems to act surprised when she steps up behind him, feather light feet touching the floor.]

Thanks. Oh, here-- [He offers the bag over.] I didn't catch which kind you liked, so I got one of those mixed variety boxes. Good for at least one cup, I'm sure.

Right. Well, thanks. [She takes the bag, looking inside for weapons or something like that... she was just talking to Batman and his paranoia is totally infectious.]

Um, you haven't been here that long though, right? Or I would've run into you earlier. So you can't have that much money on you. Let me pay you back.

[But if he's who she thinks he is, he doesn't really need money, does he...?

She goes inside the building. The first floor is a common space with lots of furnishings, but no one else seems to be around for the moment. Good enough.]

So you're not just a reporter, clearly. [And--if this is true... sheesh. What other weird secret identities do superheroes have?]

Robin leant me some, so in a way I'm only paying you back. Growing up on a farm's made me a little thrifty as it is--I've not much need for riches.

[He smiles, glances about, then takes a seat. This is a whole city full of people with superpowers, though, and saying anything out loud is as good as announcing it, when people have superhearing. He's always careful.]

I'm a few things other than that. My abilities aren't limited to writing a good clipping, though, otherwise I wouldn't be here.

Well... if you say so. [She still plans on paying him back somehow...

But at any rate, she sits down as well.]

Right. You can move really quickly. You seem... really wholesome. No offense. And you're from Metropolis.

Sooo. That seems to kind of narrow it down.
