Hmmm -- Superman?

[ look, it's the coolest guess he's got, even if he fully expects kara to be the one to notice first if her cousin actually showed up. ]

[passingthrough]

[She pauses for a second.] Is he here? [Shouldn't he have mentioned that already?]

[winn]

-- not that I know. So who'd you meet?

[passingthrough]

[She perks right back up.] Steve Rogers. [Enunciating both parts of his name and then making a little sound that might have been a squeal of delight.]

[winn]

[ ok. he's not sure why that's this exciting - other than the obvious man is a greek god thing - but he doubts she'd be fangirling at him about that --

kitty is fangirling. this is so weird. he's not sure how to feel about this. ]

Yeah? So did I - I'm his speed-dial tech support.

[passingthrough]

[She gives Winn an excited shove.] He did not! Seriously? [She believes. That's just cool.] He's from the past original so he probably needs it. [Isn't everyone kind of from the past originally since time keeps...nevermind.]

[winn]

[ wow she is just in. full fangirl mode. what is happening, is this what he looks like when he talks about supergirl? ]

Not that I'm complaining -- but why did I just win cool points for teaching a guy how to text?

[passingthrough]

[Only boyfriend gets to see this. Tell no one!] You taught him to text? [Okay, reign it in, Pryde.]

So, Vision mentioned Steve Rogers was in the Avengers, but I just assumed his name happened to also be Steve Rogers. I don't know he was the Steve Rogers who fought the third reich in World War II. My grandpa used to tell me stories about him. I even had an old comic book about him.

[winn]

[ oh, ok, if it's special fangirling only he gets to see, he's a whole lot more ok with it. ]

Yeah -- when you squeal about getting one remember who's behind it.

[ she can have a crush - as long as he's the one getting the sugar.

wait, ok, this just got cool for him too. ]

No way -- your world had Superheroes fighting Hitler? [ that's not fair, that should be a constant! multiverse, what are you doing! ]

[passingthrough]

I do nooot squeal. [Except she totally has and he heard her.]

And yes, see the cool here? [She kisses his cheek. He's definitely the one getting all the sugar.]

[winn]

[ his eyebrow just s l o w l y goes up at he denial.

she's a fangirl. that's so cute. ]

Ok, yeah, I'm seeing the cool. [ he smiles, happy with his sugar. ] You know, he told me to call him for anything. We're totally tight now.

[ tight, winn you met once. stop trying to show off. ]

[passingthrough]

Are you trying to ride his cool, Winn Schott? [She sees what you're doing there and she's amused.]

[winn]

Depends -- is it working?

[passingthrough]

Not even a little. But it's okay, because you know why? [She bops his nose lightly with her finger.] I love you.

[winn]

[ he smiles and leans in for a lingering kiss, getting that smitten look she likes so much. ]

I will take it.

[passingthrough]

[Happy kissing.] I held his shield. [Is that what you wanted whispered against your lips?]

[winn]

[ no. not it isn't. there's actually a second of panic before he remembers there was an actual shield.

ok, he's gonna pull back and lean his head against his hand. ]

Alright. Lay the fangasm on me.

[ it's remarkably judgment free; he's had to let so many of those out in his life. ]

[passingthrough]

[Oh my god, what did you think shield was a euphemism for?] Fangasm? You have a strange language in National City.

[winn]

[ ask no questions and he'll tell no lies. ]

Westeros has a strange language. Ours is pretty straightforward - enough people say it - it's a word.

[passingthrough]

Has Margaery been using weird terms on you?

[winn]

Tyrion, he's called me your 'paramour'.

[passingthrough]

You met Tyrion. [She smiles.] How did that go?

He used the word courting with us a lot. I felt like we should be in a parlor wearing white gloves.

[winn]

Ok, I think? Definitely held true to my promise.

[ he wasn't wittier or more charming. let's all pretend it was hard. ]

We eventually settled on 'beloved'. [ and by 'settled', he means he dropped the subject. ] I think I'll just look like a failed magician with white gloves.

[passingthrough]

You're going to start calling me your beloved? [That's...cute and sweet and odd? She'd probably feel embarrassed in public and like it in private. She'd probably also tease him despite liking it in private.] I'm gad you came to such an important decision.

[winn]

We talk about the real issues.

[ he nods ]
