"To clear up the misconception, I can't teleport. I shadow-walk. If there isn't a shadow large enough for me to enter and exit then I can't- at Apollo's bright lightshow she cuts off abrutly letting out a startled yelp laced with a bit more pain then she would care to admit. Reflexivly she throws her arm across her eyes and blankets the entire passenger compartment with darkness. The darkness lingers for a moment after the intense subsides.

Nightweaver doesn't say anything, but she moves to sit further away from the rockstar.

At the yelp of pain, Hope looks in Nightweaver's direction, concerned. "You okay?" she asked.

Apollo winces, “You okay, babe? Oops sorry I had not realized that I would hurt anyone… I was totally not trying to do that.”

He turns to Star, “We should race sometime, I wouldn’t mind losing to a hottie like you… but I won’t make it easy,” he winks. He rises though and walks over to Nightweaver with an apologetic smile.

“Hey,” he kneels, by her, dimming his own light, “I am sorry about that, I didn’t catch your name,” he takes her hand softly, “but yeah… I didn’t mean to hurt you.”

Viridian scoots over to sit next to Nightweaver.

"Are you all right?" she asks conscientiously.

 

[Victim]

"Are you okay? I didn't know light bothered you that much. Should I be extra careful with my flares around you? Maybe we should all stop throwing around powers that affect other people without permission."

I don't get it. Why is he being so nice to me? "I guess... Why would you assume that you'd lose though?"

"Hope, you need to check the specs again. The drill is only made to go several hundred feet down. The telescoping shaft goes down a few hundred feet from the base, and then some parts separate but are still wired to the main sections for power. Even though the materials could survive at extreme depths, that's not what it's supposed to do." Drilling to the center of the earth was only the first thing I thought of before looking at the design carefully. You're just a little slow.

---------------------------------------

A few feet wide and the hollow, telescoping shaft gets to be several hundred feet long. It seems that it is designed to telescope to its maximum length, after which the drill its engine, and an unknown (i.e. to be added by non-Foundry) device separate

I don't get it. Why is he being so nice to me? "I guess... Why would you assume that you'd lose though?"

"I saw how you bolted from the room, that is speed, I would actually have to try to keep up with you, I mean you are smoking fast," he cracks a smile.

"I saw how you bolted from the room, that is speed, I would actually have to try to keep up with you, I mean you are smoking fast," he cracks a smile.

"No, I'm not." She shudders at the thought. "Avoiding too much heat from atmospheric friction might be the biggest limit on my top end speed though. And I wasn't going all fast earlier; it's an optical illusion. In a fairly tight space, a few hundred seems much faster than it really is, especially with abrupt acceleration."

Nightweaver pulls her hand from the light controller "Photosensitivity. Although it's more then just that. Too bright of light and I lose all my abilities, and intense enough light hurts worse then a fist to the head. 'All who dwell in darkness fear the light'."

Hope looked again at the specs, trying to make some sense out of the gobblegook. "Sorry Star, not a scientist, Okay. So no core drilling. Hmmm." she growled. That's plenty deep enough though to screw around with a fault or something isn't it?" she said, looking at the other super. "Put that thing in the center of a volcano...." she shivered. "I'm just looking at what he could do with this thing, other than magic. Sometimes, magicians tend to get tunnel vision when it comes to that sort of thing, thinking that everything can be solved with a good spell or two. "This thing looks like it needs some sort of magical energy to be fully functional. Maybe he needs the drill to get down to a cache of magical energy? A ley line node? Those can pack alot of energy." she mused outloud making notes. "Hey, Speedy any ideas on what this can do?" she asked Star, pulling up what she can on the thing.

"Damn that sucks," he shrugs and takes a his seat next to Star, "You guys are kind of wound up pretty tight, are all super hero teams like this, that would be such a buzz kill. Optical illusion or not, your fast; its okay to take a compliment." He gives star a playful wink, "So basically what you are saying is if you go too fast you would burn up... there is a song in there... Stars, speed, and smoking hot. I like where this is going."

Man heat from atmospheric friction, blah blah blah... photosensitivity... fear the light... do these people talk like this in public, LAME! Maybe this is how super heroes act? Apollo thinks as he focuses his attention on Star, "So yeah what's the plan... last thing I knew I was going to be singing... or taking a singer's place... and then I heard about drills... and Barrington, who seems like your typical lame I want to rule the world villain, I mean you would think villains would find a new gig then ruling the world. The world is kind of lame... but yeah, we got like a plan?"
