Superheroes of the Trust Game Thread

[Victim]

Hope grinned a little. "Well, now you know why the Feds, cops and AEGIS think I'm so useful. Postcognition might not be exactly common, but when you can cast a spell to let others 'see' what you've seen, it helps solve really nasty crimes. The bad part is, it's not always reliable, the visions I mean. I just had a feeling it might show us something since Vi got something out of these things." she shook her head. "I'm sorry about the empathic stuff last time. I was irate, tired and well. I'm sorry," she said quietly, genuinely regretful.

"Oh. So it's not real time?" Shooting Star comments, sounding disapointed. "We all do things we regret. With practice though, you can learn to keep a better separation between your anger and your power," she says, operating under the assumption that Hope is fairly new to her powers. I don't regret that I disagreed with you though.

"That sounds good, but remember, the set up of the guards and Fine might change." she growled a little. "If Assad is there, then Fine might be working with the Labyrinth of his own free will." she scowled darkly. "Assume that they are all enemies and knock them all out. Once they're secure, then we can sort out who is innocent and who isn't."

"No. I wasn't even planning on attacking the guards directly; I can slag their weapons. If the people move, my initial shots will probably be trash, yes. Now that I've seen them though, the tracking should work."

At Wren's questions, Megan shakes her head. "I don't think she can do more than one, right? You should write a faq for the portals, since we all have or had tons of questions about it."

"If the portal is opening right across the street, I don't think most of you will have a problem getting in quickly from that spot. Viridian might need a hand though. So do you want me to fly there quickly to set things up for when you come through the portal?"

"Postcognition means 'Past Sight', I see the past, the echoes of what was, the faded whispers in the autumn wind and everything that goes with it. Emotions, memories, the last thoughts and feelings of the dead are what I normally 'see'. What you saw in that vision I gave you last night? I see something like that and worse on a weekly basis. "It's part of the price that goes with my power and it's an ongoing learning experience." Hope looked haunted for a moment, before visably shaking herself back to the present.

"Postcognition is a notoriously unpredictable gift and for me, it's even more unpredictable when I'm emotional or exhausted." her expression was grim. "I just don't know why I'm suddenly developing new facets of my power like the solid air. I haven't.... Not in a few years anyway."

"If the portal is opening right across the street, I don't think most of you will have a problem getting in quickly from that spot. Viridian might need a hand though. So do you want me to fly there quickly to set things up for when you come through the portal?"

Wren shakes his head. "No, nobody goes alone anymore. Not when there are threats like this one. We can assume that with their tech, and background, that place has more than we can see with a naked eye. Star, I will accompany you initially. The others get ready to go in. That way, should something happen to you, unexpected, then at least you would have someone at hand and ready to aid. Otherwise, the others would be too far behind to help. If Nightweaver would be your better choice, then it's understandable. I only offer because protection is my forte and I have some flying capability, in case that's needed."

Wren will go with what Star has to offer. It's time to get down to some action...

Hope considered.... "Nightweaver, Star and Wren will be our first wave." she looked at the vision.

"I'm assuming that there is something nasty behind that key-coded door. Be careful there. Vi, myself and Nitro will be the second wave." she looked at all of them. "Don't trust anything in there. Like I said before, assume everything and everyone in that place is the enemy. Act accordingly, with caution."

 

[Shayuri]

Viridian waits for a lull, then answers Star and the other questions quickly...

"Actually, I can make more than one portal at a time, and they are two way, but we can't sucker people easily, because you have to open the door to make the connection...see, my foot's in this door now...so it's not like they could open a closed door and wind up here before they knew it."

She takes a deep breath.

"Second wave, got it."

Sorry about making the edits, I kept the gist of it the same though, wanted to make it clearer.....

"Better to Blitz them quickly," Hope conceeded and looked at Wren and Star. "Can either of you do a dazzle attack? Something that can blind them like a flash bang?"

"I was thinking that Nightweaver could go in, blanket the area in darkness, then lift it and somebody flick off the flash. That will confuse and blind them, making it easier to subdue without causing as much damage." she grinned at them a little.

 

[Raylis]

"Fine." Nightweaver says, obvious irritation in her voice.

 

[kirinke]

Hope looked in Nightweaver's direction, guiltily remembering that the other superhero just got herself knocked out. "Oh damn. I'm sorry Nightweaver. I should have asked if you felt up to this after you got knocked out." she said, her voice sounding guilty and ashamed. She had simply assumed that once Wren healed her, she'd be okay, and then there was the matter of convincing the kids....

Next time, be more aware of you team mate's condition.... she scolded herself.

 

[Raylis]

A brief, but noticeable, look of anger crosses the darkness controller's face, the shadows in the room growing longer for a moment . o {calm!}

"Let's go. is all she says, unconsiously releasing the room's darkness to it's normal level.

 

[Shayuri]

Viridian goes up to Nightweaver...a little cautiously.

"Hey," she says quietly. "Sarah's got powers, and she knocked herself out too. In fact, that and your shadow bonds were the main reason we managed to subdue them. I'm really glad you came along. If'd been by myself..."

She shrugs.

"I'm just glad you came too."
