[imaginate]

[ Calm, faintly amused: ]

I’m looking for someone who can teach Aya to have fun.

But, Honor Guard Rayner, I am well aware of the definition of ‘having fun’. Green Lantern Hal Jordan has informed me repeatedly in the time we spent traveling together.

[ A pause. He taps his fingers on the desk. ]

Theory is different from practice, Aya. [ A beat. ] And Hal has a really... weird definition.

...I am inclined to agree, yes. Very well. I am not adverse to experimenting with new ideas.

… Right. Anyway. [ Louder, addressing the console: ] If you’d like payment, money’s of no object. It’ll be a few weeks at most.

Just as your little friend over there. (Remember that time she beat you up, Kyle. Except that's not very specific because it happens a lot.)

[Aya took a moment to glance over at Kyle, before turning back to Shayera]

Actually, I am significantly smaller in stature than Honor Guard Rayner.

[wingedwarrior]

--not what I meant. It's a figure of speech kinda thing. But trust me, I can hold my own in a battle.

[looksfine]

As can I.

I would be most interested in witnessing a display of your abilities.

[wingedwarrior]

Name a time and place, I'll meet you there. (SUCK IT, LIL BRO.)

I have already made multiple appointments with several individuals. Would two days from now, in the evening or night, be sufficient for your own schedule?

[wingedwarrior]

(... that is awfully precise, damn this girl's good.) Sure, works fine for me. We can grab some dinner afterwards.

[looksfine]

Actually, I do not require food or drink for sustenance. "Dinner" is not necessary.

[wingedwarrior]

... well that killed some of our plans. Just training, then, I guess.

video;

[looksfine]

My apologies.

[She did look slightly guilty about that]

Training would be more than sufficient, if you still desire to meet with me.

[wingedwarrior]

Don't worry about it, I've had worse. (Aya, you precious soul.) Sure do. I just have to ask, are you a Green Lantern?

video;

[looksfine]

Yes. I am.

How did you know?

[Aside from the Green. And the association with Kyle. Oh, and the giant Green Lantern Symbol on her chest.]

video;

[wingedwarrior]

(Oh, okay, she's definitely going with this.) I'm a psychic.

[looksfine]

[Shay, that's mean.]

[Because Aya, in the face of a lack of evidence suggesting otherwise, is immediately inclined to believe her. Why would somebody lie about something like that?]

You are in possession of precognitive abilities?

I have heard of the concept before, but never met an individual beyond the Guardians who were.

permavid ok

[wingedwarrior]

(If she were a better person, she'd come clean now.

But this is Shayera. She'll be honest in... oh, twenty minutes?) How else do you think I know Kyle is thinking I'm a terrible person right now?

okok

[looksfine]

[Ah! Signs of doubt beginning to creep into her expression. Suspicion.]

That does not sound like Kyle.
