    Skylark's eyes widen at the arrival of Hope. She swears profusely, and instead of lifting Apollo and Star out of the water, will use extra effort to extend her force field to cover Hope and whoever she pulls out of the water.

    Superheroes of the Trust OOC Thread II

    I guess my operating assumptions are as follows: Skylark can use area-Gravity Control to lift Star and Apollo out of the water, and make them weightless; she can then use a move action (or two, using a hero point) to grab them and fly us all to cover. I should ask the GM if these are proper...

    It occurs to me that lifting Apollo and Star out of the water probably just leaves all three of us open to Murder Mouse sniping us. Would it be feasible or wise for Skylark to move, grab Star, stay underwater (and therefore out of perception for an above-ground sniper), spend a hero point to...

    "Oh yeah, catchin' blokes what fall out should be BLOODY HELL!!!" She careens through the air from the explosions. She is rather relieved at how lightly she is injured. Then she is dismayed at what happens to Apollo and Star. "Skylark to all points! Apollo and Star got jumped by some bloody...

    I submit that containing the blimp and stopping it from spreading spores is the highest priority. Knocking the blimp out of the sky might still spread the spores around, just not as widely as otherwise. This might be one of the reasons the pilots are wearing bombs. It might be possible to...

    Skylark is nearly knocked over by Nitro's sudden yelling. BLIMEY that was loud! She knocks over the swarm of rioters closest to Nitro when she hears Wren and Star over the commlink. "Oi, Nitro! Got to fly. Give these blokes what for, eh?" As she flies all out toward the blimp of doom, she...

    "Oi oi OIIIII!!!!" Skylark is not sure what sport they're fighting over, but it sure isn't 'football' or rugby! "I'll break your bloody ankles mates!" She applies weight gradually to the combatants within her area, in hopes that she won't shatter any spines. (OOC: Gravity Control, 'down'...

    "Oi, you serious? Well, time to earn me keep." Skylark stands up and cracks her knuckles. Sports riots are me cup o' tea, she thinks. I didn't think they had them, over the pond? She begins crushing the spacetime between the stadium and here with a minor singularity between her hands...

    "Anyone up for a bit of peeping in on the US Embassy?" muses Skylark, peevishly. "Truth be told, seems it's the only real lead we 'ave going in. Unless we can beat the streets like inspectors or somethin'. Do ye suppose we could find a way to 'ack the Embassy's communications and security?"

    Seems that Markum keeps contact with the CIA and the US Embassy. Maybe we can use them to set up a meeting. Or we can spy on them somehow and watch for when Markum makes contact. Otherwise, we're just wandering around the city waiting for Markum to contact us on his initiative (which for all...

    "I suppose we ought to practice with our props. Wouldn't want to drop the facade by accident." She secretly hopes that her 'gravity gun' looks like Doctor Who's sonic screwdriver. "Let's see what else we can find on Mr. Markum," she says, as she plays with the computer in front of her...

    "New suits? Smashing. I 'ardly feel like a super'ero in these," says Skylark, ostensibly referring to her somewhat oversized lab coat. "An' I would be 'appy to practice teleporting wit' Mr. Wren." "Returning, for the moment, to this issue of flushing Mr. Markum out... from the two options...

    (New speech color for readability). Poor Hope, Skylark thinks. She seems a tad batty. An' has problems with her powers. I guess I can relate, like when I thought making gravitational warp tunnels would collapse the planet. Actually, come to think on it... nah... in any case, I wouldn't wish...

    "I'm actually rather new to this international espionage business, but maybe we should pose as tourists? Be easier t' pull off, an' is possible that 'investors' would be more closely scrutinized by their government. It would also give us the excuse to wander about wherever, looking for Mr...

    "Bloody tanks?! I 'ope not. But I agree we should assume the competence of our enemies. So the first part is to get disguises and a cover story, and preferably find these agents. Subsequently, we figure out 'ow to destroy the factory, then do it?" Crunch. "An' if entry by air is...

    "Pardon, I was responding primarily to yer concern of using magical power, and of, um, Ms. Star's concern about 'iding our sabotage. An' it might be a good prudent idea to 'ide our power use jus' on the principle that they might be less properly defended if they aren't expecting a super powered...

    "If we're aiming for that, an' I agree that we should, I'm supposing it would make finding the agents on the ground all the more important. They might have an inkling as to when the factory men would be off." Skylark chomps on a Tums. "An' in accomplishing this, am I correct in thinking that...

    Skylark gives an exasperated look. "'eaven forfend yer fans might be disappointed." Speaking more generally, "Fancy disguise or no, we should 'ave a cover story as to why we're nosing around. Even if we look like the locals, to be sure there'll be questions as to who we are and whot our...

    Skylark whispers back to Hope, in her heavy British, "Terrible business, I'm sorry for yer loss." If Optic's DNA scanning is noticeable, Skylark is visibly nervous. It's alright, 'e's not a Cyberman, that isn't a disintegration ray, this isn't a BBC sci fi programme she tells herself. She is...

    Skylark Geraldine Skylark is a snarky, acerbic graduate student at MIT. She grew up in York, England and remains a fan of the York City Football Club. She was assisting her professor, Vaclav Ceszek, in a gravitic warp experiment, when a previously unobserved type of singularity was...
