Mission 016 ~ [Dictated]

[noblefive]

[There's a bored supersoldier abound, so the next thing across the journals shouldn't be a surprise.]

Hey, uh... Does anyone want to do something? We don't have to know each other. I think I just need to get out a bit more.

I need training partners. People with better-than-human strength, preferrably...

[Yes, this is as awkward as it sounds...]

Or walking, going for a drink, anything really.

Well, my strength's only a little better than the average human, but I've a biokinetic furnace of energy in my chest capable of incinerating most anything I direct it at. I've got Danger Room access, and like you, I need people to train with. All but one of my teammates have gone home.

[noblefive]

Sounds interesting.

How about things that can survive re-entry? Can it incinerate stuff like that?

dictated

[midget]

[ The voice might be familiar. :|a ]

Well, I'm bored. How much better-than-human are you looking for?

[ruined_jaw]

That's a way of putting it, considering it incinerated everything from my nose to the bottom of my sternum when my powers manifested.

Hmm...that's a good question. It's been a long time since I've really had to push my powers hard enough to find out. It can slag titanium to scrap metal, I know that much, and I can heat up adamantium 'til it's glowing good and hot, and adamantium's the hardest metal that exists where I come from. Maybe a test's in order? I was gonna have the bowtie Doctor check me out, but he went home before we got a chance to meet up.

[noblefive]

[Just a bit.]

Depends. What's your strength level?

dictated

[midget]

Have you ever played a video game that lets you fight an optional boss after you defeat the final boss, and then that secret boss has max stats and incredible attack power and blows the final boss out of the water?

That.

[noblefive]

I'm up for it if you are.

[If he sounds perturbed about the incinerated jaw thing, he doesn't say it.]

dictated

[noblefive]

Sounds like an interesting challenge.

dictated

[midget]

Perhaps.

And I could use the excuse to stretch my muscles.

[ruined_jaw]

Sounds like a plan. Got Danger Room access? That's really the safest place to do any sparring of the superhuman sort, both for us and everyone else.

[He's used to it. He's had to live with his own body horror for the past 16 years or so, so he doesn't even bat an eyelash at anyone else.]

dictated

[noblefive]

Okay, when and where?

[noblefive]

No, I don't.

[Not this one, anyway.]

dictated

[midget]

Some place away from the castle and city, obviously. Far away, preferably. [ So she doesn't have to worry about holding back as much. ]

dictated

[noblefive]

Got a place in mind? Could always head on out into the woods or somewhere.

dictated

[midget]

Woods or mountains would be best. [ ....Yes the mountains are miles and miles away so what. ]

[ruined_jaw]

Well, I can let ya into the one out on the grounds with my access card, set it to adapt mode so it adjusts to our individual strengths and styles and whathaveyou. As for testing the upper limits of my powers, the only thing I could think of would be some kinda containment chamber tough enough to withstand a nuclear blast, with sensors inside to measure energy output. I don't like testing my upper limits on people, if I can help it.

[Considering the last time he did that, he did it against a supervillain known for his invulnerability, and brought said supervillain to his knees before passing out from exhaustion.]

Dictated

[noblefive]

Ladies choice.

dictated.

[shrugs_a_lot]

[Why not...]

I'm up for both. [He could use a drink too.]

Dictated

[midget]

All right. Mountains then.

[lonenoble]

All you need to do is ask, Jorge. I'm here. We're team.

[noblefive]

Armour's pretty strong, but it's your powers, your choice. When are you up for it?

dictated.

[noblefive]

Sounds good. Which would you prefer?

Dictated

[noblefive]

Got a quick way out there, or are we planning a stroll?

[noblefive]

Figured I'd open the floor. Can't keep me all to yourself, Six.

[Some amusement there.]

dictated.

[shrugs_a_lot]

Sparring, then booze? If you're not too tired afterwards I mean. [So smug... with a guy he doesn't even know.]
