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]

I was thinking more water if we do it here. Not as soft but...not solid ground either. Want me to take notes if it ever happens? :)

don't go too far up then, water's a bitch if you hit it from a decent height.

but yes, please take notes. i can do a case study

Oh yeah done that before, stung like hell. Okay, I'll go into detail for you.

it's not a great experience

thank you! though probably should check with the other party before you agree to anything

A total mood killer! I'm sure they'd be okay. I'll make sure to ask though.

hospital trips usually are

[because if you fall from high enough D:]

please do :) i think i'd be breaking some ethical rules if i didn't make sure you had

[Noooo!]

Yeah not sure I'd enjoy getting into trouble either.

i certainly wouldn't. i will try not to be too disappointed if they say no

I'll let you know!

you a true friend, anonymous person

I know, I know :)

any chance i can get a hint?

To who I am? Secret ID. Not exactly public.

was that the hint, or was that you telling me you can't give me one?

[Steph play nice, you have a secret ID too]

Can't give you one, sorry. Nice try though.

i'll just have to wait to see if i can spot anyone flying out over the ocean

Oh ho! Voyeur, huh? Gonna use binoculars as well?

i meant-

you know what fine, i'll take that. yes i am. i'm gonna find somewhere to buy a pair of binoculars and use them for perving

[Oh man, he's actually leaning over the keyboard in the café in a gigglefit, so the reply comes a little later.]

Oh I knew it!

i hope you aren't judging me

[every now and then she remembers that Bruce is probably reading every one of these responses and she has a good chuckle to herself]

Nope. Just means we'll have to play it up some more.

i like how you think

:)b

well now i at least know you're a teenager

[Ha, but how many teenagers are here? Loads! Bwa haha!]

Oops.
