Topaz (335) has posed:
Topaz was trying to find information on a team called the Titans. Apparently there was some kind of recruitment drive a couple of days ago but Topaz missed it. She sighs as she sits down, reaching out with her mind, trying to find anyone who might be thinking of theo Titans on their surface thoughts - carefullyf or there's SO MANY PEOPLE here that she can give herself a headache.

Raven has posed:
    Raven isn't thinking about the Titans. She isn't thinking about anything. She usually doesn't. Her mental discipline is... staggering. But she is on the lookout for people searching for her, constantly, cautiously, the way a wounded animal might peek through the bushes it hides in. She can sense the psychic probe coming her way, but not the source of it, nor the contents of it. Her empathy just isn't that specific. She can and does follow it back to its source, though, as Raven, in Raven's outfit. If this is another Church of Blood searcher, then it's better to deal with it now.
    She hopes she won't have to send anyone to Hell this time, but if she does, well, tough. That's how it goes sometimes.

Topaz (335) has posed:
Topaz blinks as she senses a mind curiously blank... or well-shielded as she opens her eyes andgazes in that direction, focusing her probe on that one mind. It's interesting - but it's not an aggressive empathic probe - more curious. Topaz is a dusky-skinned Indian woman with a waterfall of black hair as she is gazing in the direction of that intriguing mind.

Solaire has posed:
    Solaire is... perhaps a bit less in the whole ordeal of active searching. Everywhere is foreign to him in just about every sense. He isn't quite considering anything in particular, aside from why Sol is so full of itself. He glows, he's probably uncomfortably warm in close close poximity, and some people've already gotten sunburn being near him too long- on reentry day that is. Today his radiance is a bit dimmer but still notable amongst the masses if anyone looks.

Raven has posed:
    Unless she's willing to push, to actively invade a stranger's mind and root through it, all Topaz is going to find is blackness. Stars. Calm silence, as in the void, but not cold, not devoid of air. Empty. A constant, exactingly rigorous mental image held in her mind as Raven approaches, cloak drawn around herself, the top half of her face thrown in constant shadow by her hood.
    Raven is capable of subtlety, but today there's no point. If the telepath chooses to push it, then subtlety won't work. Raven lands on the street five feet from Topaz, ignoring the reactions this gets, and asks bluntly, "What are you doing in my mind?"

Topaz (335) has posed:
Topaz studies Raven. "I was looking... for somene who had that Titans group on their mind - and then... I sensed your mind. It's very interesting. I didn't intrude or anyting - I'm just studying. I'm sorry if you feel spied upon." She sighs. "I wanted... to find out about these Titans. I swear I did not do anyt ing other than look very closely." She then squints. "Who's that glowing guy?" she asks, gesturing towards Solaire.

Solaire has posed:
    Solaire is just innocent enough. Someone was flying, and now they're not. The majority of people aren't flying, which catches his attention. And then conveniently he's gestured to! Or was that the person behind him? Regardless he gives an inquisitive look to the two and strides closer, eyes twinkling in curiosity.

Raven has posed:
    "I have no idea who that is. Stay out of my mind. You won't like what's in there." The warning is dark, and Raven's actively fortifying her void-image. It's not a psychic defense, nothing like that; you could push through it easily. It's just an imaginative construct that keeps her from thinking about a certain topic; a reflex, like a Russian wrestler who trains himself to respond to pain by grabbing instead of retreating.
    "So what about the Titans?"

Topaz (335) has posed:
Topaz shrugs. "I never entered your mind. Iwas just curious. I've never touched a mental defense like that. I just looked at it...." She trails back as her empathy pulls back - but there's still a passive empathic effect about her - also, a magician would notice something else - Topaz's presence serves as a magical amplifier. "I... I've been looking for a place to belong. My parents abandoned me at birth - my adopted father discarded me when I woudln't do what he wanted and sent bad guys after me..." She sighs softly. "From what I heard, they sound like... something I can belong to."

Solaire has posed:
    Solaire brings himself in close and listens quietly. He heard something of titans and immediately, more attention is given. "I had been curious about the Titans as well." he reveals, "I do not know much about them and have been looking for more information in general." piping in his piece once the subject he's on(after star politics) is brung about.

Raven has posed:
    That explanation stops Raven in her tracks. Just hearing of a group of people and deciding to go after them specifically to try to make them your adopted family? Is that a thing humans do? Like, without knowing any of them as individuals, but just knowing them as a vague affiliation? She tries to recall an instance she's heard of, and comes up with nothing.
    Huh. Worth study.
    And now there's this shiny guy too. Yeah, okay.
    "Why? Why Titans?"

Topaz (335) has posed:
Topaz sighs - and is simply lonely. "The Justice League seems too much - I'm not a mutant so the X-Men are out. I don't know of any others... and the Titans seems a group of people my age or younger so..." She shrugs. "If it doesn't work, I'll continue on but it's worth investigating. Do you know something?" she asks. She glances over to the glowing man. "You're glowing... is that sunlight?" she asks curiously.

Solaire has posed:
    Solaire hums. "Well, I had asked someone at the place they put me after I crashed here, about any groups that were comprised of heroic types and were around my age. The Titans were mentioned." he answers directly.

Raven has posed:
    Ohhhh, maybe it's an age thing. That would fit some of Raven's theories, anyway. It puts her in a marginally better mood (or at least a more receptive one), and she nods. "Okay. If you want to talk to them, go ahead. They have a big, T-shaped tower on an island <I honestly forget where so just pretend the character said where>. Or if you can't fly, give me a way to contact you, and I'll have someone get in touch."

Topaz (335) has posed:
Topaz nods. "Ah. Thank you. I will be on the lookout. I can't fly but I can teleport." She smiles as she states, "I'm sure that Googling it will yield some results."

Solaire has posed:
    Solaire shines a little bit. "I'll make sure to find my way there and investigate personally, I give you my thanks." he replies with a smile and a small bow given. Then attention shifts to Topaz, "I could also take you along as well, if you want." he offers.

Raven has posed:
    Raven nods. "Well. Now you know how to get there. I have other things I have to be watching. Bye." She lifts into the air, and flies off.
