{OOC: No tag order, respond and/or bring up new topics as you like. Making your own threads to talk amongst yourselves is perfectly fine.}

[Nora has pushed several tables in the ice cream parlor together and is sitting down enjoying a sundae. She has with her a list of super powers and a small stack of comic books. She waits until everyone else has gotten their tasty frozen treats before standing up like this was some kind of board meeting.]

Okay! Now we're ready to get started!

[It was important for everyone to get their ice cream first.]

I think we should begin with a classic. Super speed! Anyone remember being faster than a speeding bullet or able to outrun trains or something?

[charcoalfeather]

You're probably right.

[She didn't want to think about what a dead spirit guide might mean.]

[nowi_wins]

But you said he was following you around again, right? I mean, you you, not past you... this you.

[She pauses. That sounded more like a real sentence in her head.]

Um, you know what I mean.

[charcoalfeather]

Yeah, I... I get it. It's been following me for a while, and I don't really know what it wants.

[And, this is besides the point...]

I'm thinking of naming it Kuu.

[nowi_wins]

Have you tried asking it? Maybe it can figure out a way to tell you.

[She's imagining it scratching messages in dirt or something like that.]

That's a cute name! I like it.

[charcoalfeather]

Well, I can't talk to it because it's a bird.

[Why does everyone keep asking her to talk to it. She doesn't speak bird.]

And, uh, it likes to fly away a lot whenever I get close.

You like it? It was one of my friend's names. Like, my friends from the other place.

[nowi_wins]

Well, I was thinking maybe it could act out what it wants to say.

[Bird charades. Brilliant.]

Or maybe tap out the answers in morse code! With it's beak.

[Because a bird would know morse code?]

[charcoalfeather]

[Yes, brilliant.]

Really? Uh, well, I guess it could if it wanted to. I just have to get it to trust me.

[nowi_wins]

Try feeding it! All animals like food.

[charcoalfeather]

Food? Yeah, I could try feeding it bread or something I guess.

[nowi_wins]

Or you could go to a pet store and buy a fancy bird treat.

[charcoalfeather]

They sell those?

[nowi_wins]

Sure they do. They're shaped like bells and stuff and they have bird seed all over them.

[charcoalfeather]

Really? I'll have to buy one and see if it works.

[Maybe she'll finally get something out of that bird.]

[nowi_wins]

If it doesn't, you could always try the old corn cob covered in peanut butter and birdseed.

[charcoalfeather]

Oh yeah! That's a thing that works too.

I'll try that too, just to be safe.

[nowi_wins]

I used to make those when I was a kid.

[Nora you still are a kid...]


It might take a couple of tries, but I'm sure he'll come around eventually.

[charcoalfeather]

I'm hoping that he will, than maybe I'll finally get some answers for what I'm supposed to be, and what I'm supposed to do.

[nowi_wins]

Worth a shot anyway. Let me know how it goes, okay?

[charcoalfeather]

I will!
