Charmera wrote:"I hugged someone for the first time before today." She remarked with some joy, gently releasing Jamal. It was the smaller Xyri speaking now, not the larger one. She sighed slightly as she bent slightly so she could see Jamal, noting that he was about two thirds her height. She noted also that he was rather tall for a human. "I think I like it. I can understand why it brings comfort." She remarked.

Valancy asked with a chuckle, the group hearing creaks from Kylie's weight before Valancy mended the cracks so that it wouldn't collapse.

Her memory was just sorting out a portion of what she had access to. "Fusion not stable..." She muttered to herself. Fusion. That's what happened. Where two archons bond together and work in perfect harmony. But the fusion had been imperfect. It had been unstable, and nearly led to some bad things. She looked up as Ember adress her, blinking slightly and then she sighed. "I... I'm Tina." She then paused. "I know who you are. You don't remember, but we met before." She explained. She wasn't too sure when, but they had. Then she smiled. "And yes. Moving in would be a good idea... us being close together, as potentially destructive as it sounds, will be for the greater good.... I think." She spoke. "Oh. And we have to try that again sometime."

Tomia wrote:Mars and Rocket
Mars and Rocket followed Elena to the abandoned warehouse, though he was still a little weary about the idea of joining this team. Mars had never worked well with others and he had serious trust issues, so he was very skeptical about whether or not this would actually work out. The abandoned warehouse wasn't too bad at least, it reminded him of his secret lab below a parking garage.
When they started introducing themselves Mars didn't say much, not giving people a lot of information about him. After some prodding he had ruffianly given them his last name, but hadn't said anything about his past or of his special ability to control machines. He listened intently to the others speak however. Despite his flaws, Mars was a very quick listener and thanks to his superhuman intelligence he absorbed the information instantly. The only one who he had seemed to warm up to was Kiris, but even to her he wasn't very talkative but he was more responsive to her questions than the others.
Then Elena led them to the second floor and had apparently set up some kind of trust exercise for them. When Elena explained what it was Mars took a step back. "There's no way I'm doing this." He said firmly. It wasn't rational, but in his mind this was some kind of trick where he was going to fall then no one would catch him and everyone would stand around laughing at the idiot who fell on the mattress. If he thought about it rationally it didn't make much sense, but trust was the one area where Mars didn't seem to consider rationality. He genuinely believed that no one would actually want to be his friend and had to have kind of ulterior motive when they interacted with him.

Suddenly Jake went up to the railing and jumped off, telling Mars to cat catch him. What the hell was he doing? He wasn't even standing over the mattress. Luckily, Mars had his rocket propelled boots in and sprung into action. Jake may have been annoying and childish, but Mars couldn't just let him fall. He just off the railing and nosedived, propelling himself faster to catch up to Jake, before grabbing him from under his arms and bringing him down gently to the ground. "What was that Jake? You could have gotten killed! This isn't a game. And you shouldn't treat it like one!" He said to the younger boy angrily.

"That... Is actually way better. Xander it is. And screw it. I'm hungry now. I'm officially and legally American now. Americans don't wait for stuff." He said and used his magic to conjure a cheeseburger. Which he started to eat.
"That's putting your powers to good use."
"Said the woman who used her heat vision to warm leftovers..." He said and took a big bite out of his burger. "You don't get to judge me woman!"
"Is your brain okay? Katie didn't fry anything did she?"
"Nah. I'm just in a strangely good mood."
"Well that's great. I think I'm gonna go lie down for a bit-" She said and looked to the sky. "Nevermind! Big ship about to crash into Earth!" She shouted and took at with such speed, that the back draft knocked Xander down and caused him to drop his burger. The ship was massive, and the people inside were... Kree? What a Kree battleship was doing this close to Earth and on fire was beyond her. She caught it, but she couldn't push too hard, lest she punch straight through it like a needle through skin.
"That was rude. But she has a point about the ship smashing us. Goddammit, we'd be so far along in being a galactic empire if we didn't have to deal with this bullshit every 5 minutes." He muttered and teleported a few miles from under the crashing ship. Naja had spread herself out to maximize her effort. Several other flying powerhouses, Superman, Thor, and several others with anyway to cushion the impact were helping. Alex used his magic to increase the durability of the ship, allowing the heroes to use their strength to stop and guide the ship to a place where it wouldn't crash and kill a bunch of people. "And there we go."
Naja used her claws and sliced open the hull to see many of the Kree either unconscious. Xander 'ported over to the wreckage to help get everyone out. "Alright. I'll see about helping everyone who's unconscious." He said and cast a healing spell over the area of the ship to start healing the injured while Naja came across a Kree she had met before. Ronan the Accuser.
"Ronan? I haven't seen you in a long time. Not since the whole Ultron thing. What's the big idea trying to crash a ship on our planet? We haven't done anything to you... Lately. At least I don't think we have." She said lifting some wreckage off of the Accuser.
"It is a long story. It would be simpler to explain that we are all going to die."
"Are you always a pessimist or is that just a Kree thing?"

"First time? Like, ever?" Jamal frowned slightly behind his helmet. "I can't imagine something like that. Humans naturally seek out hugs because of the release of chemicals like dopamine from the hypothalamus that stimulate feelings of pleasure." He paused for a second before realizing that he went off on an unnecessarily complicated ramble that might confuse Xyri again. Damn, Worldmind really was rubbing off on him.
"Er, sorry. That doesn't really matter." Jamal said, rubbing the back of his head. "Besides, I doubt that something like that applies to you anyway. A social animal in general would likely gain pleasure from close physical contact of that nature because it quells worries of existential insignificance." He paused again. "Basically, it takes our mind off of worrying about death and makes us feel important."
Elena Galadera/Stormlight
A few days later...
Once they had all finished talking and Jamal had cleaned up after them, Elena had led them to an abandoned warehouse where they had temporarily sent up shop. From then, she had contacted Batman, and he had, surprisingly agreed to using his resources to build them, or find them a tower.
Back in the warehouse, when they had finished introducing themselves to each other and telling their powers, they had assembled on the second floor. The warehouse was designed so that the only ceiling was the roof, the warehouse having an inside balcony on each floor.
Speaking up, she began. "We fought together once, and we defeated the bad guys pretty well, but we still need to work on being a team, as its early days. And one of the important components of a team is trust. You have to trust the person watching your back, or you'll be distracted looking over to make sure you're covered, making yourself vulnerable. Thus, the only way I figure that we instill that trust in each other is this way. One by one, we'll all stand on the railing here and let ourselves fall. On the ground floor there will be one person, waiting to catch you. Whoever's on the ground will have to catch the person falling, or that'll destroy the point. I've placed a large mattress on floor so that if you don't get caught by some reason, you won't die or suffer serious injuries. Who wants to go first?" she asked with a grin, flying down to the mattress and putting her arms out to catch whoever would go first.
"And the other thing we still need is a team name!" she shouted up to them. Any ideas?"

"Grow up, life isn't a game." He said seriously. Mars was never really childish and rarely joked around which was one reason he didn't have any friends his age.

Jake shrugged, his lip curling slightly. "A knife, a bullet, a fall…not gonna kill me. The first two won't scratch me. And as for attitude," Jake said, stepping closer to Mars, "why don't you check yours, bub? Huh? Because," he said, gesturing expansively at Mars, "then you can go, and put on your rocket suit, and let's go a few rounds."
