Who: Kara & u
Broadcast: Yep!
Action: Tourist/Rew System/w/e
When: Today!

[ The broadcast from Kara is cheery. She waves. ]

Helloooo fellow passengers. Wait, no, that was really cheesy. Anyway. Hi! I'm back in the land of the waking, so to speak, and it looks like I missed my first Fleet Birthday, which would be more of a bummer if I wasn't, you know, being held here indefinitely. Anyway! Hi! I missed everyone, so fill me in on your lives! What's been going on? I heard there was some pretty tense moments there for a little while but we don't have to talk about that if you don't want to. Or we can! Just, whatever you feel like.

Oh, and Cisco I need to talk to you. Not in a scary way I promise! Just in a normal... friend way?

Just call me!

[ Kara can be found on the Tourist or taking in the nature sights system-side. Come say hi! ]

Oh, believe me. I sympathize. I just mean... it is real.

Yeah.

So did Mon-El tell you any of the stuff he remembers?

Not much of the details. He mentioned training with you.

Whether or not he ends up being a hero, he needs to know how to control his strength.

Or generally more control. I wouldn't say strength is the problem.

What would you say?

Precision. And situational awareness.

Definitely the situational awareness.

It takes practice.

And self-awareness of any kind.

Harsh. I've seen worse.

I promise I think he has some less terrible qualities.

You'll have to tell me what you think some of them are.

He's charismatic and relatively easy to talk to. He is actually pretty funny, and plays a mean game of Monopoly.

Now it sounds like maybe you don't actually dislike him.

I don't dislike him. It's just complicated.

Does it have to be complicated?

I don't know if it has to be anything, but it is how it is.

[That answer gets a shrug and a tip of the head.]

You could probably uncomplicate it.

[ is that a joke because it kind of seems like a joke... but ok, it's not a joke ]

I don't see how.

[Perhaps it's both a joke and an actual suggestions. Multitasking.]

What's complicating it? You're from different planets, but you ended up on the same one, and you're both here now. You're different, but that's only a problem if you're trying to be the same. You think he has potential, but he's an okay guy now. And he wants to be better.

Plus, he's a nerd about you.

Doesn't actually seem that complicated to me.

[ that makes her snort with laughter ]

He is not a nerd about anything, least of all me. Where did you even get that idea? That's ridiculous.

I've talked to him.

No. I mean—no. What did he say?

You realize that's not how it works, right? He didn't say he's a nerd. But he is one when he talks about you.
