To the Toilets! [open]

[flunkingspanish.livejournal.com]

"HEY!"

Paco hopped up on one of the flesh-couches in the Observation Deck, waving his arms around.

"Anyone who wants to know where the non-creepy toilets are, meet me at the Hub! We'll go and hit the City and I can give you the run-down on what we know about that place so far."

Message delivered, he hopped down and headed for the Hub to meet up with this John guy and his friend.

"Pixie," she said, sticking her hand out and shaking Mia's hand. "Well, Megan Gwynn. But my codename's Pixie."

When Pixie is done shaking Mia's hand, John gives her another nod. "Nice to meet you. I'm John." He thinks he kind of sort of introduced Allison earlier, but she can reintroduce herself anyway.

[godelsolution.livejournal.com]

He did. Sort of. Still. "Hi. Young. Allison." Oh, Allison. This is not the Resistance.

Mia smiled at 'Pixie'. "Well, I'm pretty sure none of you are from my world, besides Paco, so I don't really sweat the aliases, but I go by 'Speedy' as well."

She then drew herself up, took a breath, and turned to the others, extending her hand. "Hey, sorry we got off on the wrong foot."

Fingers crossed that Mia's pacifying gesture would work. Paco glanced over at John and Allison to see their reaction.

[sniff-my-dust.livejournal.com]

Pixie followed Paco's gaze and hovered silently.

"Apology accepted." And a handshake in return. "Not used to heroes, codenames, superpowers, or relative sanity. Well at least I'm not."

[godelsolution.livejournal.com]

"Sure." Which really isn't the same as apology accepted, is it? But it's probably the best she'll get from Allison. And a handshake, why not. "Yeah. Lacking the relative sanity in my life."

[the-cute-speedy.livejournal.com]

Mia grinned. "Who's sane? Me and my 'family' run around the city at night in costumes dealing with criminals with archery and street-fighting. Sane's got nothing to do with it. It's just how we make a difference."

Aaaand success!

"What she's not mentioning are the aliens and the crazed supervillains," Paco chuckled, leaning against the sink. "We've got some crazy stuff in our universe."

[sniff-my-dust.livejournal.com]

"Golly gee," Pixie said dryly but seriously. "That sounds so much like home."

[antitachyonic.livejournal.com]

"Fun for the whole family. Should we head back up?"

[godelsolution.livejournal.com]

"Sure. Why not?" Thinking, thinking. "Is this better or worse than where you came from?"

[the-cute-speedy.livejournal.com]

"Tell the truth? For now it's been downright peaceful, 'cept for the occasional bug problem." Mia shrugs.

"The bad guys back home are more... colorful."

[flunkingspanish.livejournal.com]

"We could go back up," Paco said with a shrug. "Or I can show you some of the other stuff around here, point out a few of the places you don't want to go exploring in. We've got an alien tree that's pretty cool, complete with actual grass."

[sniff-my-dust.livejournal.com]

Pixie shrugged and danced around. "I'm game for anything."

[antitachyonic.livejournal.com]

"Other places to avoid is probably a great idea." Looking to Allison to see what she thought.

[godelsolution.livejournal.com]

"Yeah. I'd like to know where to avoid." Alien tree. She shrugs at John.

[the-cute-speedy.livejournal.com]

Mia seems uncertain. "Well.. It's a bit of a catch. You can stay where Stacy can see you and be under observation, or you can get some privacy and risk who KNOWS what else being on the ship." She grimaces uneasily.

"The expanded tour it is," Paco said brightly. "Everyone, make sure to go before we get going, it'd be pretty silly to have to turn around half-way across the City just because you forgot to pee when we were standing in the bathroom."

He pulled out his omnicom and started trying to figure out the best route around the city, that hit all the important sites.

[sniff-my-dust.livejournal.com]

Pixie grinned brightly before darting into a stall. She returned moments later, grinning widely as she washed her hands. "Oh that felt good." She flitted back up to Paco. "Any idea how big the city is?"

[antitachyonic.livejournal.com]

John doesn't need to use the bathroom so he'll just wait for this group to start moving out.

[godelsolution.livejournal.com]

"A catch?" Allison does not think that this means what Mia thinks it means. Also, she doesn't need to use the bathroom. At least not with other people around.
