sup, new girl here

spare me the usual bs, i want to know something

we're supposed to be trying to curry favor with...something...or other to save our universes right?

what have YOU done so far? i need examples, because if i'm doing this, i gotta know just how utterly fucked i am

also also, where can a red blooded american girl find some firepower? asking for a friend

[ what a nice, not problematic at all post ]

realism is not pessimism, although it gets close sometimes

honestly? i guess i'm good at thinking my way out of problems, and to act under duress

[accelerate]

See, you've already got one up on all the powered people.
They just use their powers first, think later. Create bigger messes than they need.

You keep the mess tidy.

What else?

[spinoff]

eh, i'd assume there's at least a few smart ones

honestly it's more about thriving in the mess

i can take a few of hits? honestly i'm just a scrappy weakling, so yeah, not much else

[accelerate]

No offence, but I think that's a lie.
Why would a weakling call herself "Final" Tara? Sounds kind of badass to me.

[spinoff]

have you heard the term "final girl"?

[accelerate]

Yeah! I love horror movies.
I like to watch them from between my fingers.

[spinoff]

well, you're talking to a two times final girl

so yeah, i can take a stabbin'

or seven

[accelerate]

[ … ]

Wow.

You really are a badass.

[spinoff]

well, i had help

lots

my sister's the badass, i just try to keep her alive

anyway, i'll do what i can, but the literal heavy lifting is not for me

[accelerate]

The heavy lifting might not be, but even those with superpowers need people around who know how to keep others alive.

Where I'm from, those with powers can be kind of stupid. It's the people who don't have them that they need the most. They keep them going in the right direction. They see what they don't see.

[ He really misses Iris. ]

[spinoff]

that's an interesting perspective, i guess nothing can be taken for granted, even "not having superpowers"

thanks, i actually feel a bit better

[accelerate]

I'm glad. :)

Don't make writing yourself off a skill. I have a feeling your sister may not like that, and people who write themselves off don't get to eat fries or have ice-cream.

[spinoff]

i'll consider it, thanks

mainly because who wouldn't want fries and/or ice-cream, like, helloooo?
