Kara started her way out of the training room and toward the mess hall saying "Make sure you close the door on your way out... Wonderbra gets furious about that stuff" She continued on her way to the mess hall where instead of a burrito she decided to go grab a few slices of pizza. She didn't really need to eat with her powers set up the way they were but she felt like eating. She took up a seat next to Oliver Queen A.K.A. Green Lantern.

According to the information that Jonn had transferred to him, Jay understood a wonderbra to be a woman's undergarment. While he wasn't sure what that had to do with anything, he was able to correctly guess that it must have been an informal name Kara was using for one of the other people on the station. He reasoned that if an open door was likely to upset this person, whoever they were, it would be a good idea to clean up after himself as well.
By the time he got back to the cafeteria, Kara had already gotten her food and sat down. For his part, Jay filled his plate with pasta, some portioned meat, fruit, and covered it with a mixture of sauces, thoroughly working it together. It was the same thing he'd done earlier, and he already knew that the taste was one he would enjoy. Then, plate in hand, he went to an empty table and sat down. It wasn't that he didn't see the Kryptonian girl, but rather that he wasn't sure he wanted to socialize with her. Out of the context of a training session, he still wasn't sure how to associate with her and, since he didn't know anyone else there, he felt it would be best to just keep to himself for the time being. |
Oliver looked over at the boy who had just sat down alone at a table. Oliver himself was eating some spaghetti and had a slightly messy beard to match. He looked over to Kara and asked "You seen him before?" Kara looked over at her green clad friend and nodded "Yeah apparently he ajust arrived in a meteor... I'm helping him train his powers. He's actually coming along pretty good. His muscle control is doing good too but I want to see how he fares over the next month's worth of muscle control" Oliver chuckled remembering hearing stories from Clark on Kara's trouble with muscle control. "He's a strong one eh?" Kara nodded and replied "He was strong enough to catch me off guard and slide me back a few feet... and he's just as fast" Oliver smiled "Well I can't wait to see what he's got" He got up and useed a paper towel to wipe his beard and moustache off really well "Well I have to go investigate something for Bruce... later" he waved as he threw away his paper plate and went out of the mess hall.

((Please forgive me, but I've been watching Yu-Gi-Oh Abridged all morning. This RP is about the Justice League...in America!))
|
((ATTENTION EVERYBODY MY HAIR HAS SOMETHING IT WISHES TO SAY!!!))
|
Jay finished his plate in solitude, and found that he was still hungry. Rather than get another plate, though, he settled for a glass of mixed fruit juice. He was careful to handle the paper cup carefully, surprised by how delicate it seemed. He hadn't noticed earlier, as he'd skipped drinking anything in his haste. Now that he'd had something, however, he realized that he was actually quite thirsty, and went to get another two cups of juice, taking advantage of the chance to accustom himself to more of the new flavors.

Zatanna watched as Kara entered, grabbed her food, and sat down next to Oliver Queen. A few seconds after that see saw a boy that she had never seen before enter. 'Hmm who could that be,' shr thought to her self as she watched him grab a wide variety of food and sit down at a table by himself. She got threw her trash away and went back to the table she had been at and watched people talk and eat. After a few minutes her gaze went back to the boy, he was still at the same table by himself though this time he had something to drink. 'Might as well introduce my self,' Zatanna said as she got up and went over to the boy. "Hey your new here right?" she said with a warm smile.
|
Jay looked up at the feminine voice. The woman to whom it belonged was provocatively dressed, in a manner of attire he would have associated with a professional entertainer. Of course, given where he was he immediately assumed that she must be anything but. While it was certainly possible that this "Justice League" might have had their own entertainment, he thought it more likely she was another of the "heroes" aboard the station. For one thing, she didn't have the deferential manner he would have expected if she were. Besides which, neither anything he'd seen about these people, nor what information had been transferred to him suggested they were the type to risk their identities in that way. Politely, he stood up, nodding his head to the woman. "Jay Taylor." He said, extending a hand. "Pleased to meet you."
|
"Nice to meet you I'm Zatanna," Zatanna said as she shook his hand. "So when did you become part of the Justice League?" she said as she sat down next to where he was sitting and crossed her legs.
|
"Well, to tell the truth..." Jay began, sounding a bit dubious. "I'm not exactly certain that I have joined this Justice League, as I only just woke up here. Apparently, when my world was destroyed I was cryogenicly frozen in some kind of freak accident, and I ended up crashing here in a meteor." For a moment, he trailed off, a haunted look in his eyes. With a shaky hand, he took a sip of his juice, finding that he wasn't quite ready to face his past yet. Blinking, he realized that he had lapsed into silence, and began again. "I'm sorry. Apparently I am not as composed as I had though. In any case, it seems that I will be joining your League. I have nothing else to do with myself now, and I seem to have developed...abilities, which would qualify me. The one who calls herself 'Supergirl'...she has been giving me lessons."
|
((Idk what to do... Can someone give me an idea?))
|
Zatanna listened intently as he talked. When he stopped she waited seeing he was a little distressed. "Oh she's nice though she can be a little cocky sometimes," she said as she thought of a couple of times where Kara's mouth had gotten in trouble.
|
Coughing slightly, Jay looked away. "That's not really a problem I have with her. It's more that, well..." He was looking decidedly uncomfortable as he said it, and more so because he had been able to hear all of Kara's conversation earlier. He had no doubt that her hearing was every bit as good as his, and no desire to offend the girl. At last, he swallowed and made up his mind to say it. It wasn't as though she didn't already know of his prejudice, and much though it shamed him he couldn't cast it easily aside. Bluntly, he told Zatanna. "The problem is, she's Kryptonian. My ancestors were exiled from Krypton ages ago, and even though I know it wasn't her fault, it's very hard to just forget the way I've been raised to think all my life."
|
Kara heard Jay's words and pretended though she hadn't heard and continued to eat her pizza slices though it seemed to be going slower now as she listened. She wanted to see how this would play out as much as she wanted to smack him upside the head.
|
((Daemon you could go find Barry... just a thought :P))
Hal looked over at her, "Said what?" he asked. Barry Allen walked through the Flash museum. He passed a group of elementary school kids gawking at the statue of him. He was more focused on the statue of Jay Garrick. In the new earth history it said that Jay inspired Barry's Flash. Barry remembered the reality of it, however. He remembered being trapped by the anti-monitor. Barry shook his head, it was all in the past now. |
Al'xand'r looked around "You didn't hear that?" The voice spoke up again <You are the only one who can hear me unless I will it. I am currently not strong enough to provide you any sort of power nor am I strong enough to speak to anybody outside this vessel... you must give me form if I am to speak.> Alex was getting confused again "You are Ion correct?" The voice in her head spoke <Yes I am... I know your thoughts before you even speak... I told you once before I am here to help you realize yourself and in return I will feed off of your ring until I can sustain myself. This means you will need to recharge your ring twice as much as the normal lantern.> She felt all of her questions about him being answered and looked to Hal "Sorry Hal... my questions are being answered" she smiled. She felt as if she had found a new companion in Ion.
|
Hal's eyebrow raised a little. Alex was just generally weird, he thought. "Alright we should be heading back then. We've got no assignments here so there's no point in sticking around, you ready to go?" he asked her.
|
Alex nodded "Alright let us go back to earth" she stood still for a moment then came up in front of Hal and held her ring out. From her ring came an image of a catfish. It wasn't Ion but a form of Ion made by her ring. It spoke "Hal Jordan You no doubt understand the meaning of my rebirth so I must ask that you not say anything about this."
|
"I understand enough," he said. He felt the changes of Blackest Night occuring slower than should happen. "I suppose this is something to do the the birth of the White Lantern Corps and the naming of the new Guardians on Earth?" he asked. The aftermath wasn't too long ago but it still haunted him from time to time.
|
Alex stood there and listened as Ion spoke "I am not sure Lantern Hal... currently my connection to the universe is severed until I am able to get my power back... until then it is imperative that things have an eye on them." Alex looked confused. "But not everything has eyes?" she had that confused look on her face
|
"Oh..." Zatanna said as she looked around for something eles to talk about. "So that food you were eating earlier. Is it anything like you are use to eating?" she said.
|
The boy smiled ruefully. "I am sorry. I see that my earnestness has caused you discomfort. Please forgive me. I had momentarily forgotten that your people are not as open as mine." He gave her a slight, apologetic bow. "To answer your question, yes. The food is somewhat similar. The flavors are not exactly the same, but it lends the dishes an exotic savor that is quite appetizing. Also, there is something...clean...about the taste. On Koron, our foodstuffs were artificial grown, or cloned, and augmented by dietary supplements. This is the first time I've had 'fresh' foods."
|
"Its okay," Zatanna said as she gave he a small smile. She listened as he explained the food on his planet. "That sound... different," she said as she shrugged. "Was there like a planet food that every one ate," she asked with curiosity written all over her face.
|
Donna Taylor finally awoke after her well needed rest. She took a shower that helped her relax. It was soothing and then she remembered that she was suppose to meet Bary at central city. She got dressed in her usual outfit for superheroes and then went to the teleport room. She teleported to central city to try to find Bary.
|
"Oh no, not at all!" Jay told Zatanna, becoming quite animated. "Cooking was a very valued skill on Koron. Because we had such limited resources to work with, creativity and skill in the crafting of flavor, texture, and aroma was a prized ability. Of course, we all ate from common cafeterias, but from what I understand, you would have thought them more like your Earth restaurants." He chuckled. "My father was a talented under-cook. I often aspired as a boy to follow in his footsteps and become a great chef someday."
