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]

Tt.

[No, he didn't turn his computer off, no, he won't discuss it - the connection is terminated - but, yes, he's watching the space.]

[God he hates the 'f' word.]

I'll expect a report with your findings, Ms. Brown.

[Yes that is a very slight emphasis on her name. If you want to blame his cover identity for this fiasco, he expects a goddamned hand-written dissertation on the subject.]

[Notlaughingnotlaughingnotl- okay yes she's laughing.]

You should make some kind of scatter chart of the most popular uses for common superpowers.

[COMMON SUPERPOWERS what has her life become.]

[Oh, well then. This is a conversation Favrielle can contribute to, to a degree in any case. She certainly lacks super powers but being D'Angeline as well as trained her entire life to be a Servant of Naamah makes her somewhat of an expert in matters of love and sex. Perhaps less with love on a personal level since she's never given herself time in that regard before, not in the way most people do, but sex? Oh yes.

She starts a video response, in part because Stephanie has made her inquiry as such and Favrielle would reply in kind, and also because with a lack of shame on the topic, there's no reason to hide her face. Scar or otherwise.]


As someone who lacks these superpowers you speak of, I find most people are ignorant to just how much they can do without. With the proper training or texts they may find a whole new world open up to them.

[Listen to the woman from the world with a legal and social acceptance of religiously affiliated prostitution, everyone.]

There are techniques and acts which it seems most are unaware even exist or can be done. The scope of their imagination simply doesn't extend that far.

[Steph, what are you doing? Yelena stares at her video post for a while, trying to decide whether to just watch to see what people say or talk herself.

A year ago she would have had no interest in this conversation but after that almost-encounter with Valek when he'd rebuffed her drunken come-ons...well. She wasn't entirely opposed to things.]


People use magic and powers with sex? Are they allowed to do that?

[Wait.]

Your teacher told you to study this?

[SOUNDS SUSPICIOUS OKAY.]

[Her lips curve up in an amused smile, looking just ever so slightly more mischievous by the way the scar pulls at her mouth.]

Well if you find any current companions in need of instruction you might send them my way. Classes could be arranged, perhaps.
