UN: JUSTSOPHIE | TEXT + TELEPATHY

[sophielicious]

running a self-serving survey. if you hate the thought of someone talking to you in your mind, respond to this message with an x.

edit: ugh, fine. if you're OKAY with someone talking in your mind, respond with an y.

(A day later, those who hadn't replied to it with the 'X' but replied with a 'Y' and people she knows will receive a sultry, raspy voice in their brain. There's some static with it, unfortunately, her powers have been glitchy since they returned from The War.)

/Hi. It's Sophie, you know, Cuckoo. Sorry for the brain static, blame Aurora for letting that vent open in the first place, but that aside, if you are hearing me, it's because of that post, and this is important.

I don't trust Aurora, and I'm sure plenty of you don't either; that's why we are talking here. I scanned the whole place from top to bottom. Scylla actually did leave, so that is confirmed. If any of you had contact with Scylla and would be willing to let me take a look at it, please let me know so I can keep a record. I'm also sure he's a telepath like me, so I want to make sure everyone who has met him has their brain in place.

Also, if anyone knows how I can reach him, that'd be fantastic. I'd probably come back with at least something to report. I asked Aurora if she could pass down a message, but again, I don't trust her to do it, or with anything, really.

So, yeah, remember that thing I keep talking about, community being important and stuff? Let's get on that. Also, ugh, do me a favor and pass the word to the cowards who responded with an 'X'. Also, to respond to me, just think, man, start with my name, so I can actually filter you guys. And don't talk out loud. You guys just look weird when you do that./

/Noooo not interested in that stuff.
Kryptonite is — a kind of rock, I suppose. Radioactive space debris from my home planet.

[sophielicious]

/...

Legit?/

[newsbeat]

/Yeah? Why would I make that up?

[sophielicious]

/Because it's hilarious that a space rock weakens a dude that powerful. Like, really, really funny.

If it helps, I have a weak spot like a videogame boss, so we are both really silly./

[newsbeat]

/It's not that funny when it's leeching poison into my veins and slowly killing me from the inside, but sure.
What's your weak spot? Since I shared mine.

[sophielicious]

/Then you lead with that next time, Clark.

I can turn into diamond, no need to breathe, eat, sleep, impervious to damage, aside from a physical spot, which poof, shatters me. Every diamond has a flaw.

If they got your space rock here, you should give it to the snakes or something. Far be it from you./

(Give her kryptonite and she'll tell you where it is!!! Fair trade, he can flick her forehead, she can't go to Krypton. :()

[newsbeat]

[He'd prefer not to lead with anything about kryptonite but okay, maybe that's a fair point.]

/Yikes. I hope no one ever finds that spot.
It's good that the rest of you can be invulnerable though.
My girlfriend already tried to see if Aurora could cut off the availability of kryptonite, period, but apparently that is a no-go. So snakes might actually be the next best option.

[sophielicious]

/I'm not sure how common knowledge it is? I should ask. Again, clone, etc.

It's, uh, pretty cool? Aside from the fact that I totally never do it. Totally forget all the damn time. Could have totally moved through the fog in theory! Did I? Nope.

Who the fuck is ordering space rocks? And there are some really shitty places here, you can hide it in them. I can give you a list./

[newsbeat]

/Unless the fog sucked that ability away before you could use it. So maybe it was a wash in the end.

Hopefully no one! But there's a guy here who tried to murder me a couple months ago, so I would love that list, just in case.

[sophielicious]

/... So, again.

I'm nosy. Very, very nosy. Can we be more specific, please, before I explode? Please, with a cherry on top.

Why are you getting attempted murdered again?/

[newsbeat]

/A toxic combination of narcissism, envy and a god complex, I think.
It's not because of anything I did.
Lex Luthor seems to think I devalue humanity by existing and having the abilities I do.

[sophielicious]

/Oh. Oh, we know that song and dance.

He's around?/

[newsbeat]

/He's around. Playing nice, as far as I can tell. I'm sure he doesn't want our world to end, either. But he's not trustworthy under any circumstances.

[sophielicious]

/... Do I have to protect mine?/

[newsbeat]

/I don't think any of us need to do anything but keep an eye on him right now. If our purpose for being in Etraya is enough to keep him in line, I'd prefer to keep it that way. And I will be keeping an eye on him.

[sophielicious]

/... Mhm. I'm assuming he doesn't have powers? Full-on just angry flatscan barking into the void?/

[newsbeat]

/He has billions of dollars back home, which seems close enough sometimes.
But here he's just got his brain. Luthor is a very smart guy, but no, no powers.

[sophielicious]

(Finally. A name. Not that she's going to do anything to or about it, but it helps to know who might want to harm her. It wouldn't be the first time in Etraya.)

/Okay. Thank you for the heads up. And if you need me, you let me know? Promise?/

[newsbeat]

/I promise. Thanks, Sophie.

[sophielicious]

/Don't thank me. If I need you, I'm gonna yell so hard you won't need superhearing.

See you around, Clarke?

[newsbeat]

/Ha. Good to know.
Count on it.
