Good morning Keeliai, how are we all today?
[Steph is sitting at her console, leaning back in her chair with her legs propped up on the desk. She's smiling, and for those that know her, it's the sort of smile that should be extremely concerning. Those that don't know her may also be feeling like they're about to hear something they don't want to.
She is going to be a terrible person today.]
I'm going to preface this message by saying that anyone under the age of 16, or whatever the age of legality is where you're from, should tune out now, please and thank you. I'm not gonna be explicit or anything, but it's probably not going to be appropriate for kids. [she gives a pointed look, yes you, Damian, switch off the computer now.]
I was taking an anthropology class back home, and my professor happens to be here too. [she wrinkles her nose, like yes, I know that's super weird, how do you think I feel?] And he's been giving me assignments and stuff, because apparently being kidnapped by a giant turtle isn't a valid excuse not to keep up with coursework. The topic we'd been studying before I got brought here was human sexuality, and Professor Craig suggested I write a paper on kedan sexuality instead. [Hi Bruce.] Except, uh, after the last couple weeks, I'm not really keen on that idea.
But I have been thinking about all these people with superpowers running around, and like - we've got comics back home, right? But they tend to focus on the whole defeating supervillains and stopping alien invasions side of things, which is great, sure, I love a good action story, but there's something that just never really comes up.
[she looks directly at the camera, the very picture of scientific curiosity] Do they - or, do you, for the superpowered people in the audience - ever use their powers for sex? This isn't a rhetorical question, by the way, if you have used your powers in the bedroom, feel free to share with the class.
And in the interest of not excluding anyone from the conversation, anyone who's just a regular old human, or whathaveyou, you can discuss what sort of powers you'd like to have, and how you'd use them to impress the gender-of-your-preference.
Don't feel like you have to respond directly to me, you're more than welcome to talk amongst yourselves. I figured we could use a little lighthearted chat to take our minds off the situation. Don't you agree?
[She winks, clearly trying not to laugh, and sits back in her chair to wait for responses]

[She is refraining from making a comment about Oedipus complexes
but
seriously, Brandon's mom, what the fuck?]
no subject
[He should probably never tell you that you look a lot like his mom, huh.]
no subject
It doesn't sound like it should be for anyone. I thought you were from New York, anyway?
no subject
[fame does weird things to his brain.]
no subject
And, you know, good luck getting there. [It feels weird to say, if only because it's a reminder that they both have futures back home.]
no subject
[Oops he's back to sounding serious. As if this conversation wasn't already enough trouble.]
no subject
no subject
I guess I was just always told luck's for people who don't have talent or looks.
no subject
Would you like me to take it back? [the luck; she's mostly teasing] Since you've got plenty of looks and talent.
[Not that she's seen his acting skills, but still]
no subject
[MOM YOU'RE MESSING UP MY MANE...]
Man it took me like ten minutes to do my hair.
[gosh.]
Naw, it's fine. I know how you mean it.
no subject
How about I add 'break a leg' - that's the actor thing, right? - and we call it even.
no subject
I guess that works. But you owe me.
no subject
I owe you, huh? You gonna save that for a rainy day?
no subject
[eyebrow quirk.]

no subject
[guuuuuuuuurl.]
no subject
no subject
[He can so take it.]
no subject
[The look she gives him is pretty much "what, did you think I was going to say something else?"]
no subject
Breakfast in bed, huh. You drive a pretty hard bargain, Ms. Brown.
no subject
You don't have to choose that option. I'm sure you've thought of some of your own.
no subject
[That sobers him up some.]
Look, can we just...
[He sort of gestures at her bedroom. Contrary to his flirting, the gesture isn't the least bit suggestive. Given the roller coaster nature of their conversation, it's probably understandable.]
no subject
no subject
Dunno about you, but I'm beat. Turns out talking about horrible emotional trauma is exhausting or something.
no subject
Will you be annoyed if I apologize again?
[Just incase the answer is 'yes', she steals a quick kiss before letting go of his hand and laying down on the bed]
