[ starting up the car and giving it a good rev. it lets out the sweetest vrrrroooom and jolyne grins at that, putting it into drive and getting them out onto the track. nice. ]
Yeah, talk about busyβthis weirdo selling our "bath water" said that there was a... moon crash? Is that real?
If so, that's some real clean up. No wonder you've all been crazy tied up.
[ she does indeed it is so far a very smooth, easy warm up! ]
Yeah, guy with blue hair was toting around glittery water saying it was bath water. Creep.
[ her expression shift a little as she nods to that answer though. ]
Just wanted to make sure he wasn't just spreading around dumb rumors. Trying to get my footing in this place means I wanna learn a little bit about what's been happening before we got here.
[ you gotta get a feel for the car before you FLOOR IT! that and jolyne doesn't want to shout over the engine, which is currently purring very nicely. ]
Then you're lucky, he's a real sleeze, that's half the reason I didn't wanna believe just him.
[ another round, this one a little faster. ]
But you all, you've been pretty upfront so far. Or I guess as upfront as you can be while still wearing masks, heh.
Do the citizens know all that much about us yet, like our names and stuff? Or are we still kind of a mystery to them?
Mm, that'd have to be Emporio, heh. He's really young, but he's got such a good head on his shoulders. He never fails to surprise me with how smart he is...

You could say I'm a car person.

Glad you aren't too busy for a ride with me. You guys deserve a little bit of a fun since it's just been you guys 'til now.

... "Bath water"?
That is real, and it happened about a month ago. We've been dealing with the fall out ever since.

I don't believe we've met.
[ It's a big city, hard to know everybody who's around. ]
Always a good idea to double check your information against multiple sources.

It would be nice to take it off, but I'd rather not have the public know everything about me.
You're all still a mystery at this point.
speedruns my tags before w2 and cries
Yeah, I guess secret identities aren't just for fun or whatever. They keep other people around you safe, right?

Every hero group needs a detective, that's true. Problem solvers, real thinkers.
no subject
I didn't realize it was a requirement. Do you know one at home?
no subject

no subject
You sound fond of him.
[ A smile. ]
Age doesn't matter much when it comes to cleverness.
no subject
[ hums ] Kind of? Sort of in the walls.
Either way... he's a kid who deserves to see what it's like outside those walls. He's gonna change the world with a brain like his.

[ That's a weird place to grow up, but they accept it. ]
Are you helping him get out?
no subject
It's called "Burning Down the House."
[ it is a very weird place to grow up. ]
And I am... in fact, I know he's free, even if I'm not there.
no subject
That must be a relief for you.
