first design; omeganet video and action.

[hinavelous]

a; omeganet video.

[There's a new superhero face that pops up onto the screen, all in light blues and whites with a simple mask on her face and dark, curled hair falling off screen. She looks a little uncertain, pulling some of her hair over her shoulder and finger-combing it for a moment before she speaks.]

This is a little embarrassing to ask, but-- I'm new to this whole Superhero business, does anyone have any pointers? I've not gotten in any real trouble yet, but I certainly don't want to cause more trouble when I'm supposed to be helping.

b; action! anywhere between the college of the arts and venture park.

[Out of her Super uniform, Hina is just dressed in a stylish light blue sundress with a white lace bolero and a tan sunhat, walking from class to the park with her sketchbook in her purse and her phone in her hand. She was texting her brother, more than likely, and possibly could have stood to be paying a bit more attention to where she was walking.]

[cardsflippedup]

[Ooops, that's someone else who probably should pay more attention to where he's going. You know, after getting attacked in the park, you would think he'd stay out of it.]

[Nope.]

Oof! Sorry- my mistake.

[hinavelous]

[She walks straight on into him and keeps going for a half a second, then bounces back and shouts, immediately bowing and apologizing in Japanese before she catches herself and stands up, folding her phone and dropping it into her purse.]

I'm sorry-- I wasn't wat-- Eiji?

[cardsflippedup]

Huh?

[Oh. Wait. That was another person calling him Hino- Eiji. It probably didn't make sense to call your brother by his last name.]

Oh- No, no, no. My name's Tomoki. Sorry.

[hinavelous]

[Her eyebrows climb toward her hairline and she takes a small step toward him, tipping her hat up to look at him better.]

Gosh, you look just like my friend. Exactly like him. Just with... shorter hair, and a more business-casual fashion sense. [She gives him a once-over. Gosh, Eiji would clean up nice. That's funny.]

[triggeredrebellion]

That depends. Just what exactly do you usually end up fighting? Normal criminals, giant mutated monsters, or super villains?

Tips for one of those won't work for the others.

[hinavelous]

Ah, that's true. I've come upon one villain I knew from home, though I'm not sure what classification he falls under. He... was, at one point, human, though I am pretty sure he isn't anymore.

If you'd be willing, any tips you have across the board would help, since I may run into all three.

[Hina you're entirely too pleased about this prospect.]

[triggeredrebellion]

Well, if I'm only going to be able to give the vaguest and most general of hints then the first thing I need to suggest is this:

Do use any super powerful abilities that cause a lot of property damage unless you don't have any other choice. Even if all that happens is that property is damaged and no one is hurt, dealing with it after is more trouble than it's worth.

[hinavelous]

Oh, of course! My powers aren't especially "super", I'm just very strong. I'm always careful to be mindful of where I am so I don't destroy anything.

[She frowns, thinking.] ...Does that happen often?

[number1_kerbal]

We do have a basic training course down at the Omegabase, so you can run through all kinds of situations. Mostly, you should try to think on your feet and not freeze up when you're surprised.

[hinavelous]

Oh, is there? I should have thought of that.

[number1_kerbal]

Don't feel to bad, lots of people forget that the simulators exist.

I try to get a lot of time in on them though, since my superpowers aren't much good in combat directly, they just give me chances to get up and try again.

[hinavelous]

I guess that would make sense.

Oh? What are your powers, if you don't mind me asking?

[birdinthehand]

[Yes, Hina really should have been paying more attention to where she was walking. Because Ankh was hitching a ride in her purse, collapsed into an exhausted pile of medals and pseudo-medals. When she brushes against someone and the purse jostles, his various parts go jangling all over. He does not like it.]

Hnnggh...

[But with much effort (and a sound that's midway between a hum and a schlorp) he pulls himself back together and sticks his hand out crossly.]

Watch where you're going! Don't forget that I'm in here!

B

[hinavelous]

[She yelps, having definitely forgotten about her bird carry-on. She stops where she's walking and folds her phone shut, making a face.]

Ankh! I'm sorry, you were so quiet I almost did forget. Are you all right?

B

[birdinthehand]

Hmmph!

[Almost forgot?! Ankh tenses in such a away that Hina might expect him to lunge out of the purse and strike her. But then he simply crumples inwards, fingers balling into a loose fist.]

How could you forget something like me in your purse?

[He meant to make it sound scolding. It comes out tired.]

B

[hinavelous]

[It really is too bad that Hina isn't scared of you anymore, Ankh. You tried. Instead, she reaches out and sort of pets the back of his hand, frowning apologetically.]

I'm sorry, I am. You're usually so loud and I'm not used to you being like this, either. Can I get you something?

A

[triggerhappytraitor]

Trust the people who care about you over anything else. Even if it feels like they don't know what they're talking about. They'll guide you truer than any instinct.

[[There's a note of deep regret in his voice. This is something he learned the hard way.]]

[hinavelous]

[She takes note of that, and frowns a little sadly at him.]

Of course. Thank you, mister--?

[triggerhappytraitor]

Tachibana. Sakuya Tachibana. [[He bows his head slightly on the introduction, his tone polite and formal.]] New addition to this organization.

[zerotodoro]

[To be fair to Hina, it's hard to watch for someone that made themselves invisible. The small alien tried to get out of the way before they crash into each other, but was just a little too slow]

[hinavelous]

[Thus there is a shriek as she tumbles but doesn't see what she's run into and tripped over, so she winds up on her butt with a confused expression and nothing to look at in front of her.]

[In her alarm, she forgets to speak in English, instead making a broken inquiry in Japanese.]

Wh--??

[zerotodoro]

[Dororo knew it's best to run off, but it'd be rude to! He quickly replied in Japanese]

Ah! Excuse me! I'm sorry, I didn't see you in time!

B

[gigigigigigi]

[Way to walk into a guy wearing nothing but a loincloth and a weird armband, Hina. He's really startled by this, and he jumps back and sort of growls in surprise.]

B

[hinavelous]

[That sure happened. She yelps, takes a small step backward at his growling, and then bows forward in apology.]

I'm sorry! I wasn't paying attention.

[gigigigigigi]

Sorry?

[Amazon is a little uncertain as to what to do now, because she doesn't seem aggressive--it's not an attack like he thought.]
