Slipstream has posed:
Tucked away in one of the entertainment rooms, Drake is sprawled out in a gaming chair and taking advantage of 31st century Internet speeds as he plays Overwatch. He is hunched over his computer, his fingers flying along the keyboard, with his right hand whipping his mouse about.

His shit talking game is on point as well as he goads the enemy into making mistakes. He has a pair of sleek headphones on with a microphone placed in front of his mouth.

On the screen, the iconic Widowmaker that he plays is utilizling her sniper rifle to plunk targets from afar, playing head games and a sense of fear on the map.

"Get shit on." He breathes out with a laugh as he taps the mouse again.

Bang! Headshot.

Timber Wolf has posed:
Brin is not sprawled out. He's looking like he's been pumping iron in the gym and is doing rounds to check in on his pack, family, whatever he calls it on a day to day basis, and...yes, he's gone for cotton candy. It's athing with him. T-shirtt, jeans. Not his costume (for once) but up here it doesn't matter. Pokiking his head around the door, he watches for a moment.

"Hey, Drake. Are you keeping sharp in case things happen?" he asks, taking a large bite of cotton candy and chewing on it, the pink fuzzy stuff sticking to his face somewhat. Get it off. Get it off!

Still not quite as bad as Coney Island mind....but....he did need to talk to Drake and everyone else, too.

Shadow Lass has posed:
"You know, I can't decide if I like those computer games. Certainly, they make for interesting conversation." Shady walks into the room, and towels off. "Meanwhile, some are practicing real skills. But when we need someone to cuss, we'll remember you." She might have a grin on. Maybe. "Hi Brin. What's up?.

Slipstream has posed:
"Sharp as a knife."

Drake's hand whips along the mousepad again, tapping the left click as he knocks another combatant dead. PING.

As the game comes to an end, he slides the headset off on to his shoulders, then leans back to glance over to the pair of teammates.

"Hey guys, whaddup?" He drawls out as he runs his fingers back through his hair.

Timber Wolf has posed:
Brin grins to Umbra and waves the cotton candy. "Hey hey, what's up? And not much Drake, was hoping to catcch you" he offers and spins, looking to Shady with h a nod. Glancing back to Drake, Brin leans on the wall of the room and looks relaxed, munching on cotton candy.

Shadow Lass has posed:
"Practicing. What else?" She takes the towel from around her neck, and deposits into the laundry chute. "You, as if I didn't know." This time, she does split a grin. "What about you, Brin. That's interesting ammo you've got there."

Slipstream has posed:
"Whatcha wanna catch up on?" Drake says as he swivels in the chair to face them. He's wearing just a plain pair of jeans himself and a solid black shirt. He's in his casual clothing as well, not bothering with his uniform up in space.

He flashes a grin over towards Umbra as well, giving her an upwards 'nod' of his chin. "What is up with you and cotton candy, dude? There are way better snacks on Earth to try out. Like Twizzlers."

Timber Wolf has posed:
"It's good. Besides, Twizzlers are good too but I ate them already" Brin nods, looking to Shady again then back to Drake. "Well, I've been down on Earth helping out a new friend. So" Brin says finding a spot to sit and listening to them all. "Yeah odd ammo. It's food actually. But what're you up to Shady?" he asks watching them both from his spot on the floor.

Shadow Lass has posed:
"Why do I hang out with you?" Shady picks out the comfiest seat on the sofa, and rolls her eyes. "Twizzlers aren't better. Chock full of sugar. I can't believe we're checking which is better." She slowly shakes her head. "Not too much. It's been oddly quiet. Worries me."

Yep. While everyone else is taking the time off, she is worried.

Slipstream has posed:
"Cotton candy is a hundred percent sugar. Far more than Twizzlers."

Drake knows his Earth candy after all.

"I've been partnering up with Superman. You won't believe the shit I just got into." He gives a long stretch of his body. "I helped take down Wonder Woman." He says with a grin across his lips.

"I found out awhile ago that she was kidnapped and replaced with a clone or something. Superman and I took the clone down. Now we're preparing to rescue her. You guys want in on that?"

Timber Wolf has posed:
"But cotton candy is good" Brin protests, shaking his head. "It's 100% pure sugar...yeahy so?" he adds then he pays attention. "Wait. Wait. What? You took down....no, just...no" he says pausing eating and licking at said sugary treat.

"You teamed up with Superman, and....hang on. Run that by us again" Brin says carefully. "You took down a clone of Wonder Woman? And...and...." he says, gaze fixed on Drake then flicking eyes to Shady. "Are you as confused as me?" he asks her, not even blinking. He's not sure if Drake's been on the weird foods again or if this is actually true

Shadow Lass has posed:
"You have to ask??" For a moment, she almost jumped up. Thankfully she calmed down, and thought about it. "I mean, sure. Superman? He's getting this team? Of course, whatever they need." Now *thats* the kind of news she likes to hear!

Adding, "Twizzlers aren't much more than sugar. What, whats this about Wonder Woman?"

Slipstream has posed:
"I got bored one day and started using the database here on the ship to look up important, historical moments and I saw that at one point in time, Wonder Woman was kidnapped by a Japanese god named Susanowo. I guess he had beef with her." Drake says as he spins around in his bucket chair.

"So, I went down to Earth to visit her, asked her some easy ass questions that an idiot could answer. She had no clue what I was talking about and seemed more interested in sipping wine and being bored at her own event she was hosting."

"So, I put two and two together, went and talked to Superman. He and I lured her out into the open, I stole her lasso of truth and we tied her up and made her tell us everything."

"The real Wonder Woman is currently imprisoned on an island near Japan."

Timber Wolf has posed:
Brin listens silently. Any time Drake starts a tale with 'I got bored...' Brin knows it's got a million ways to go. Thankfully this time, it's worked out good. Brin's making notes on his omnicomp, listening, watching and taking all this in.

"So. Wonder Woman is captured and there's a fake running around?" he asks simply, taking notes. He's mulling this over, looking over to both of them, Brin stays quiet while taking notes.

Shadow Lass has posed:
"And how long has she been in prison? It would be nice if we could switch them back, before the people found out. Has he got a plan?" And joking aside, now Shady is all business.

Slipstream has posed:
"Oh, about two years." Drake says as he gives another spin about in his chair. "Which is a really long time to have a superhero of her status go missing and no one figured it out. You know, besides me, because I'm the king of space Google. Lar already yelled at me for breaking the rules of space and time."

There is a shrug of his shoulders upwards.

"Yeet."

Grinning, he reaches for his energy drink and takes a sip from the glowing green can.

"Anyways, Superdude has fake Wonder Woman in his prison wherever it's at and we're gonna meet up create a plan of getting her back. We don't know what type of opposition if any we will meet."

Timber Wolf has posed:
"That sounds like we need to put our heads together and figure it out" Brin chimes in. "Now, where are we needed?" he adds snapping to attention now. He's all business. All business and all angry Zoonian. Somebody decided to kidnap Wonder Woman. Alright. Wherever Brin can help, that's where he'll be!

Shadow Lass has posed:
"Yes, you are the king of space google. That much is true. I do wish you didn't break the timeline. Or whatever. But, this Superman, we can give him what he wants?" Seriousness, "He has my shadow power at his command."

Slipstream has posed:
"I mean, /technically/, me 'unconvering' her being missing lines up in the same time frame as her rescue. So, who's to say I'm not just doing what destiny leads me to do?" Drake says with a wry grin. "Anyways, Superman is the big dog taking point on this. He's just squeezing some more information out of fake Diana, then he's gonna hit me up for a rescue. Maybe."

"It's not like he needs me, or anyone else. He's freaking Superman. But it'd be dope to have some style points."

Timber Wolf has posed:
"What, the whole rescue wasn't stylish enough?" Brin asks looking a little put out by that. The supersonic arrival, beatdown of Deadshot and helping. That was stylish....in Brin's clawed and furry book at least. "No but we're useful to have if things don't work well. I can get thrown at them claws and fists first" Brin says with a quiet laugh. "It's a win win for everything" he muses and settles back against the wall. "Alright" he says. "Who do we need to speak to, aside from Superman that is?"

Slipstream has posed:
"I mean, that's it. It's just me and Superman teaming up for this. I just gave him intel, he's the one with the invincible muscles and killer jawline."

Drake finishes his drink, then lobs his can into the trash next to the other four cans.

"If anything, we'd just go in there to be backup to his opening act. I'm just honored to have the chance to actually be on a mission with Superman."

Shadow Lass has posed:
"Still, we would be remiss if we didn't offer. I for one feel very strongly about that." Those who have seen Shady, might remember that look. It's her 'I would go down that planet, and help you, or die trying'. She often has it.

Timber Wolf has posed:
"I'l ask him to fly me into the fight" Brin says watching them both. "That's how it worked last time. Deadshot can very well attest to how good an angry Brin flies. Which is to say....straight at whatever he's being flown at. Claws first.

"Se. We need to settle in and come up with just what and how we're gonna do this" Brin points out, looking over them both. Oh look at the Zoonian being all smart. First time for everything!

Slipstream has posed:
"We don't even know if there will be a fight." Drake says as he gives a stretch. "I promised to not touch the Space Google anymore and peek for the answers. He scolded me." He doesn't seem too bothered by that. If anything, he is rather amused by the whole situation.

"So what have you two been up to?"

Shadow Lass has posed:
As Drake says 'there might not be a fight', Shady tries not to be despondent. "But, should we help, just in case?" She looks over to Brin, after all, he understood. Right?

"Me? Practice, just in case." Shady didn't really do much else. Practice; real battle, and in the rest of the time, eat and sleep.
