The Call

Jaime Reyes voice sounds over the comm-rings--all of them--and it sounds very urgent.

« Everyone on the ship, listen up! This is Jaime Reyes, your local 'Blowing this pop stand' coordinator and escape facilitation engineer. I need everyone on the ship to come to the City, in front of the Precinct, immediately. Grab people who don't have their comm rings with them--and tell them to grab their comm rings, people who are sleeping, whoever you find, and try to make sure everyone on the ship knows to come. This is very important. This is "getting the heck out of here" important. »

When they arrive, they arrive to find the Command Staff waiting, and a tiny, tiny young man standing on stone ledge from a fountain, waiting for them.

Here goes nothing.

Mmmm. This she liked.

A lot.

Her arms found their way around his neck. "Sorry. I know I bailed on the second date and all. It's something we sorely need to make up for," she added. "Well, whenever this mess is over with," she said, indicating Jaime and everyone else. "Whatever this mess is."

"Yeah, we do. Little green men aside, I had fun on our first date." And he was hoping for more.

"Don't know what this whole mess is, though." Julian shrugged, not taking his eyes off of Kara for the moment. "But at least we're not late to the party."

Yeah, well, at the moment, Kara would much rather have had a very personal party of two far, far away from the crowd. "Mmmm. I did too. Brainiac 5 notwithstanding, notwithsitting, notwithmuch-of-anything-ing," Kara grinned. "Maybe we'll get to punch, kick, or heat vision through something." Maybe the physical fighting would help Kara's, er, frustration.

It wouldn't take much convincing to get Julian to sneak off for some private partying with her. If it weren't for the fact that this seemed important, and the Command Staff was right there, he probably would've tried to sneak away already.

"Hopefully, but either way, I'm definitely lookin forward to some action soon."

"Action would be good." Of any sort. One more than the other, but really, of any sort. She tilted her head, then, and her brow furrowed. "There's something different about you."

Julian shrugged again, but there was this knowing little grin playing on his lips.

"Well, my hair has been growing out some; I could use a bit of a haircut..."

"Hrmm...." Kara said, using that an excuse to run her hands through his hair. "That's not quite it, but I do like the slightly longer hair. It's all kinds of hot and grabbable."

"Mmmm..." If she kept that up, they may have to start making out right there.

"Well," he tilted his head to the side as if he were thinking, something that was far easier for him to do now that he didn't a rather cumbersome and unfashionable collar around his neck. "I do feel like I have a whole lot more energy to spare these days."

Was that such a bad idea?

"..." Kara bit the inside of her lip before realization dawned on her.

"Julian! The collar! It's off! Wow. I really am out of it."
telekinetic_badass: (Smile)

His smile widened and he laughed a little.

"Score one for the pretty girl!"

Kara laughed and playfully (aka really, really softly) punched Julian on the shoulder. "How? When? And how does it feel to have your powers back?"
telekinetic_badass: (Glowing eyes)

No need to be as gentle with him now.

"I got... uh..." He never did get her name, did he? "...I don't even know her name." No, he did not realize how bad that sounded right there. "But that blonde girl from engineering. She helped get it off a while ago."

There was a grin, and his eyes started to glow some. "I finally feel like myself again."

"I think I know who you might be talking about," Kara replied, a little glad that he didn't remember his name. There're very few blondes who actually matter on this ship, and I like to think I'm one of the ones who matter more. "Mmm," she added, brushing her lips against his playfully. "I do like how yourself feels."

There was a shifty look at the people around them.

"Do you think we have to stay for this meeting? Or can we just... sneak off for a bit?"

She really should not have made lip contact. Now he wanted more.

Kara pulled away from Julian and glared at Jaime.

If the situation wasn't as dire as it was, she would've attempted a blast of arctic breath.

"I'm guessing we need to stay here," she said, lowering her voice as people turned to look at her and Julian.

Awkward.

"Apparently so."

Yeah, it was a little awkward. Ok, more than a little awkward. But it's not like Julian was ever one to shrink away from attention. For now he just kept an arm around Kara, even though they were only kind of dating, but otherwise played it cool.
