One Star [TEXT]

[sylvanguard]

Bear with me guys, I'm a bit new to all this.
[That being the superhero or whatever it was being called, thing.]

The name is Ariel. I've suspected for some time that I was different, but until recently I didn't think there was really anyone else like me. Now I know I'm wrong.

Anyway, I'm here more to offer help than to blather on about myself. My dad is a photographer of some renown, popular in fashion mags and stuff. He is best known for his "fusion photography" which is combining nature and models together to create awareness about the environment and stuff. Well, I know there are a few of you out there whose appearance might not be considered normal, so I'm making this offer to you, drop me a line and I'll get you in touch with my dad. Maybe you could put a positive spin on things before the media fear mongers you into something you don't want to be.

[A small hesitation in typing. It's conceivable that there are people who want to be feared as well, and she knows it.]

This is only if you want to try and change public opinion of you or maybe start a new career. [Talking to you Julian.]

Anyway, aside from that, I'm curious to know just how many people out there have a thing for archery? I recently discovered I am quite good at it. Like, insanely good. I'd like to maybe have a friendly competition between archers one of these days. You know get to know each other and all that.

Oh, boy.

[He sighs before laughing]

Anyway yeah. Coffee shop. I can find you one.

[sylvanguard]

[she grins happily.] Good. Now we just have to pick a day. When is good for you?

[youngestone]

Any day, really. I don't work at the stable on Sundays, though.

Re: video

[sylvanguard]

Well I am in town for the next week or so before going back to job, so I am good for any day as well. Maybe we can get some archery as well?

[youngestone]

That'd be nice, yeah! But, uh, what do you mean you're only in for a week?

Re: video

[sylvanguard]

Well then I'll be going out of town to the park on a regular basis. That's all I mean.

[youngestone]

Oh! Okay, just got a little confused.

[He was....worried? Concerned? Eh, he didn't want to have to explain the Echo Bubble Thing that Locke and now Vegas seemed to have.]

We could still probably find time to shoot, if you wanted.

Re: video

[sylvanguard]

Sorry about that! I'm not going anywhere. [She doesn't know about the bubble yet, but this was something that should be mentioned soon.]

Of course! It's mandatory.

[youngestone]

[Eh, later. He's actually feeling sociable for the first time in five years, he doesn't want to ruin it]

Would Sundays work for now?

[sylvanguard]

Sundays are fine for me. We going to go to the stables? If we are, you'll have to show me where it is.

[youngestone]

We can, sure. Just meet at Thorir's place and we can take the buses from there. Unless you've got a car or something?

[sylvanguard]

[She grins and winks to him.] I wouldn't be driving to work if I didn't. Its not much, but it runs.

[youngestone]

[He laughs]

Great! I promise, it'll run better than the bus and be faster, too.

[After he looks up a map and figures out the best way to get there, anyway. He's not gonna say that, though. Nope]

At least it'd be less miserable, anyway.

[sylvanguard]

But you meet so many interesting people on the bus. [Speaking from personal experience here.]

Well probably not as interesting as the people on this network though.

[youngestone]

If by interesting you mean slightly insane? Then sure, you can meet interesting people on the Network.

[Danny. Skyler. He's pretty sure Owen counts here, and probably that one girl that had the criminal record and the weird typing quirk with 8s.]

But it's the good insane, at least.

[sylvanguard]

[The urge to tease was too great to pass up as she grinned impishly at him.]

So you're slightly insane then? You're here on the network.

[youngestone]

Hey!

[He makes an offended noise before laughing a bit]

So're you!

[sylvanguard]

But I never claimed to be insane! [She grins again, laughing softly[

[youngestone]

You're on the Network, and that means you're at least a little insane now. Don't worry, though, you're in good company.

[sylvanguard]

I hope so! Has anyone on here gone all evil?

[youngestone]

Not yet, though I wonder about a few people. Then again, why get evil people to help save the world?

[sylvanguard]

Easy. They save the world for themselves.

[youngestone]

[Killian stops to think about that for a second. He wants to point out that there's a lot of good guys running around too but....well, she does have a point]

Maybe. I'm going to assume everyone's decent enough to not be like that, though. Less headache.
