Meet N' Greet

[cityship]

||All crew-mates. Please report to the Obs Deck to meet your new crew-mates.||

It's time for all the newbies to get a chance to have a formal meeting with the crew. Given the confusion of their arrival, that's probably a good thing.

Word gets out among the crew mates, spreading in a game of whisper down the meat-alley, that an informal crew meeting is what's happening, free from Stacy's prying ears, and sure enough, as soon as everyone's in the room, they're gestured to move in close, and a wall of blue energy goes up around them all.

"Holy snap, we've got Superman? The actual Superman? Like the comic books?"

[nothawkingbird.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, you had a moment, but we've fought alongside each other a number of times now."

"Leela."

Hush. Not the best way to break it to him.

Still, she grew up seeing the Superman movies, Cybil did. Christopher Reeve wearing that S and saving the world, and--

It's one of those rare time even Cybil's a little thrown.

She steps forward to shake his hand. "Sir, just to warn you, there are those of us from worlds not your own that will recognize you. A lot of us. It's...a wonder and...almost a relief to know that somewhere you're a real person," she says. "Many of us have grown up watching or reading stories about you."

She goes on, "And we'd certainly appreciate your help. The young superheroes and warriors we've got here are...eager to help, but that sometimes doesn't mix well with being able to shoot lasers out your eyes."

"What exactly did you see? Anything I'd understand without needing to hear a dissertation on this place first?"

[literaryloser.livejournal.com]

"Well, generally jus' whatever's on the scene. Not always a stick." Fitz is armed only with his cigarettes.

"Something about real faces. 'Don't trust the ones without real faces.'"

Nathan added, "Some of us definitely think some organization is in orders. Departments, ranks?"

Superman's here. Cassie doesn't say anything, but she looks at him, surprised.

That's it, Cassie realizes. If this place can kidnap Superman, they're obviously in a lot of trouble. She'd known it before, but this just makes the enormity of the situation all the more obvious.

Still, Superman being there is a comfort, at the same time. Superman is, well... Superman.

What did she mean, which Doctor? That was fairly obvious, wasn't it? "Er. The Doctor? Hello? As in, next after the one who was--"

He stopped himself to think his way through the 'known crew' roster inside his head.

"You're new, aren't you? Hello, I'm the Doctor."

Dean can't help the snort that escapes at that one. Hitting people with sticks? That mental image is infinitely amusing to Dean's brain, which is picturing a Three Stooges sort of thing.

"I can piss people off in one language," Dean offers, half-grinning. "Does that count as a skill?"

[pie-bitches.livejournal.com]

"What, you mean getting one of those slugs for yourself?" Dean asks, looking mildly repulsed. If there's one thing Dean can't stand, it's parasites. And a lot of other things, but parasites make the top ten.

But the mention of Peter does elicit some sympathy. Dean glances at Nathan, then to the pod caverns. "You know he's back there?"

[pie-bitches.livejournal.com]

"Demony girlfriends isn't my shtick, it's my brother's," Dean replies. "And I'm pretty sure Slayers are called hunters in my world. Universe. Thing."

[waylostandfound.livejournal.com]

"I mean your possessed brother had a gift for me along with the concussion."

Nathan looked toward the caverns.

"Not sure, but seemed pretty clear he probably is." Hell for all he knows, his family's all there. Pete, Ma, Claire, Simon, Monty, Heidi.

"Are they all female, and can kick your ass with one punch? And I mean, super strength, reflexes and stamina kind of ass kicking?"

[flunkingspanish.livejournal.com]

Paco winced and rubbed the back of his neck, looking down at the floor.

He really should have found some salt to dump on that filthy slug as it died.

[flunkingspanish.livejournal.com]

"Hey, don't laugh," Paco said with a grin. He knew exactly how silly it sounded. "It just means that my epic badassery cannot be contained my mere things like plasma cannons. Not to knock the plasma cannons, of course."

He made a very thoughtful face, tapping his finger on his chin and looking up at the ceiling. "Depends, are you doing it online or face to face? 'Cause face to face means you've got good not-getting-your-ass-kicked skills, which do count."

[helipack-jack.livejournal.com]

"Autobot? So is that what you and your big metal buddy are?" Okay, so, giant robots are pretty awesome. Jack's going to be trying to remain apathetic over here instead of geeking out. Trying. It takes a lot of work.

[flunkingspanish.livejournal.com]

"Hey now, we have never called you 'that redhead that's always punching us'," Paco teased. "After all, sometimes you kick us. Or throw us. Or smack us with books."

[flunkingspanish.livejournal.com]

"Good choice," Paco said. He jerked his thumb at the one he was carrying. "Same here usually, but Stacy had my alien-hitting stick in the Weapons lockers." Yes, he can tell the difference between his alien-hitting stick and the one he picked up in the church to fight Eclipso with. This one's more singed because there was more stuff on fire at the time.

Also, Jaime bled on the other one.

"Oh shut up would ya, Jensen?"

"Thaaat's a little horror-flick-esque..."

[shes-intense.livejournal.com]

Brenda socks him in the arm lightly, smirking.

"Can it Stick Boy."

[nothawkingbird.livejournal.com]

He should have. And he really had no way of knowing how deep the hurt was. Or the fact the timing of that and Brenda's arrival further cut into her.

Kate studied him thoughtfully, remembering earlier conversations with Paco, Jaime and Mia. He wasn't like Cap, Cap was human with super soldier serum. Not like this.

But something in his expression, something about it reminded her of him just a little.

She laughs, and turns to Allen. "See these?" She points to her boobs. "All-purpose pass to groups of groupies everywhere. And you don't got 'em, neener neener neener."
