Melvin perked up as Sid moved in closer and Melvin scooted just a bit more to remove more soace between them, smiling at the other man's enthusiasm. "Yes. Helped discover it again in fact. If the weather decides to clear up I will be more than happy to give you a private tour. Or if -" He glanced over as Nash called out to them all to switch, haven written a prompt and a new list of names.

"Damn. Well, that's our cut off. I'd love to continue our talk in a less crowded place. I have plenty of pillows at home if you are inclinded to pick up from where we left off."

At the new list he looked at the prompt and soon found himself sitting infront of someone he had only seen around but hadn't met. "Hello Kade. So, superpowers aside from a fit form?"

There was a brief look of disgruntlement that replaced the wide-eyed excitement when the host had called out it was time to switch partners. Getting to his feet Sid flashed a charming grin. “Definitely inclined, and would love a private tour when you have a chance. Hope to see you soon Melvin. Au revoir.”

Soon Sid found himself in front of his next date, another unfamiliar face but he assumed for the most part that was going to the case here. “Hey Lysander… Sooo… superheroes…. I don’t know a lot about them other than I guess the popular ones like Superman..Batman…got any superheroes you like?”

Time was up and they were being moved. Luka barely had time to go "Bye Henry!" with her arm thrust up in a goodbye wave as she was lead to her next "date". Maybe they could meet up after and talk about a small trip.

She'd have to clear stuff with Lele anyway.

Luka found herself seated across a boy in a beanie and she grinned brightly at him. "Hi!" She waggled fingers at him in a wave. "I'm Luka," she gestured to her name tag and felt like introducing herself despite the fact that their names were written together and they'd obviously been paired up.

"Superpowers huh? Hrm...."

for the goodbye!

the moment he gives her inclination that he is primarily Italian speaking she will switch!

Cee was gone before things could really pick up and Zane couldn't decide if he was put out or not. She seemed like an interesting chick, at the very least, and maybe he'd look for her later.

Maybe not, it depending on his mood.

Now, he was paired with a white haired man....and they had specific topics to talk about. Oh.

He'd never thought about a superpower before.

"Being classified as a "superhero" sounds like too much responsibility but super powers could be neat. Invulnerability and super strength, with the ability to fly, sounds like it'd be a sweet package. Whatdya think?"

They'd met before -- on a mission, in the heat of a moment. It meant that they didn't have to worry about introductions, at least. Ever could just sit opposite Zane with a quirk of a smile on his face, scraping hair back out of his eyes and chewing on the question a bit.

"Aren't we already superpowered? With fast healing and super strength, and weapons with, basically, magical powers..." He tilted his head a little. Stretched his legs out better. Wished he had an actual chair, really. "I don't think we need much more of the strength and all that. It'd be nice to know what people are thinking, some of the time, though. Or to be able to do things really fast, pack more into a day..."

Vasily had barely even managed the start of a conversation with his last partner before he was moved into a group -- facing off with two new folks. And one of them was old. Lucky got a long, lingering frown, Vash's arms folded over his chest, looking very much the sullen teenager sat opposite a teacher. Or a chaperone.

After a moment, he focused on Luna, instead. "Invisibility," he offered, as a response to the super power question. He didn't even hesitate. "And I heard that thing about anyone who doesn't say flight is lying. I don't care. I'd want invisibility."

"I mean sorta. We can still die and get injured." But Ever was right, there were plenty of benefits to being a hunter that were basically nerd's super powered dreams.

Sitting on the floor was okay, for now, but Zane was pretty sure he'd regret having to be cross-legged without a wall to lean on in another twenty minutes or so. Already his legs were cramping.

Blankets and pillows were fun in theory but not practice especially with the no touching rule.

"Telepathy would be cool if you could control what you hear. Imagine it would be horrible to always have voices pressing into your thoughts whether you wanted them or not." Talk about a headache! "What about shapeshifting or being able to summon whatever you needed just by thinking about it?"

Ever shrugged just a little at that, with a smile quirking around the edges. "Shapeshifting to what degree? I can certainly think of some circumstances where changing your face could be of benefit, but turning into like a wolf or something...I don't think so."

When the second round was called Inoke was both glad and a little annoyed. Glad because it meant, hopefully, no more questions about being repodded and the why's of that. Slightly annoyed because he wasn't sure what to talk about with anyone.

Much less 'dating' things with girls. He swore he'd put on his form he was into guys but knowing him he'd checked the wrong box somehow.

"I know I don't look that weird." The new woman was giving him a weird look and he knew he'd at least put on nicer clothes that day.

"Well, maybe we should have just gone to a business meeting," Roswell said, seeing the next name on the list and feeling, for once, slightly embarrassed about it.

Still, he sat down with Sam cordially, looking a lot more put-together than he had on their nightmare island experience, and smelling faintly like vetiver instead of ocean water.

The topic, however, had him in a sudden panic, and he tried his best to act normal about it. How did a normal person respond to this particular question?

"So," he began. "Superheroes. Is there a power that would make other superheroes heads explode? Ha ha! That was a joke. I would want the power of helping people."

Roswell forced a smile.

"You like heroes, don't you? Everyone does! They don't even have to get a license, or be registered or accountable to any organised standards whatsoever in order to dispense justice entirely in the form of physical violence."

Kammy kept to her little corner of the room in hopes that her 'date' was gonna show up or reveal herself or just, give her some sort of signal. When Nash called out the end of the first round she blinked and just focused her eyes on the floor.

She had been stood up at a speed date.

Was that some sort of achievement for being that lame? She didn't know how to deal with it. Sure she was pretty nerdy and stuff but she wasn't...that bad, right...right??

She pulled out her sheet and tried not to feel emotional about the whole thing. There had to be some sort of reasonable explanation as to why a guy couldn't even bear to talk to her for ten minutes right? Ok, no matter, she should focus on the next one. Maybe it would be better?

"Ok...Lin..Parker..." She wondered around the area looking for this person. "Umm, Lin? Anyone called Lin?" Maybe she should have done this from the start. But then it wouldn't have been hard to find her standing in a corner...

Time was up, and they were being shuffled along to their next partner. Henry had time to toss back a hurried "Bye!" before Luka had been lead away, and the Mist trainee only had to wonder for a moment who he'd be paired with next, then he was standing in front of someone he was very familiar with and very happy to see.

"If we're talking super heroes, would that make you Wonder Woman?" The cheesy compliment was paired with a very bright, albeit rather sheepish grin as he reached up to rub a hand along the back of his neck. Rather suddenly more self conscious than he'd been a moment ago. Maybe he shouldn't have dressed up at all. Maybe he should have stuck with his usual clothes.

~Ye look fine, boil. Why is it this one tha' makes ye nervous? The other two 'r pretty as well.p~

Henry didn't have an answer for Niceven. Not an easy one.

"Are you having fun, Cami?"

Standing across from Micah made Merric feel, if possible, even more nervous.

"Uh...so, superheroes," he said lamely. "Any idea as to what you would be..?"

Tommy's rather unexpected greeting had made Iskander stare at him in surprise, but he felt a warm curl of pleasure and amusement flutter in his stomach, a grin spreading across his tanned face. Iskander reached out and gave Tommy's shoulder a squeeze.

"I think we're gonna be great friends,' he said seriously, but wasn't entirely able to keep a straight face.

He'd barely gotten to know Cami and Tommy, but at least he'd gotten a brownie out of it before the time changed over. Iskander was sitting cross-legged in one of the pillow piles, happily chewing on it as he gave his two newest acquaintances a beaming, relaxed smile that bordered on sassy.

"I think I'd like to be something that had to do with flying," he said conversationally. "Wouldn't you want to fly? That's badass."

The last time October had seen Nora, she'd made him do work.

Now he sat awkwardly near to her, gazing up, wondering if she was going to make him do work again.

"Invisibility," he said decidedly, after a moment. "I would definitely want to have some sort of invisibility power."
