[action] Heatwave! This is our island in the sun...

[waytobreakithero]

[ After falling asleep on the scratchy, kind of smelly, uncomfortable carpet in the strange "office", one usually doesn't expect to wake up somewhere completely different.

Certainly not a hotter, more tropical version of the Wounded Coast. But the sun and fresh air and increased space did wonders for her mood and ability to accept yet one more odd situation.

And that little device had come with her. More and more interesting. ]

A settlement, hm? Someone is certainly having fun at our expense. [ Stretches and begins to brush the sand from her hair. ] Still, this is much more entertaining. [ She looks up at the sky and salutes.

Then she tucks her gauntlets into her belt and loosens the collar of her armor as she begins her hike along the shoreline. Best to find out if she had been brought here alone, and what sort of people she would need to work with to not dehydrate or starve. ]

Anyone here? Hello? If you're thinking to ambush me, I'll have you know I'm secretly a dragon. Hopefully that will not deter you.

[he doesn't seem at all fazed by her surprise, his smile wide on his face as he peers up at her.]

Not shapeshifting dragons. But we do have Miss Martian, and she can shapeshift into whatever she wants. [partial headtilt.] She could probably turn into a dragon if she wanted to.

Does that mean you can turn into whatever you want too?

[waytobreakithero]

That's a skill I'd love to have. [ She is a bit taken in by how easy going and curious he seems to be. Of course, she does have a little soft spot for urchins that don't try and take her purse. ]

Do you have many friends with special abilities like that? [ Since you said "we". ]

[socrash]

[the chance to get to talk about his friends - and his team are his friends and family, as far as he's concerned - is a welcome one, and Bart wastes no time in launching into a long soliloquy about all of them.]

Yeah, a ton.

[he starts ticking them off his fingers.]

There's Blue Beetle, whose got an alien thing stuck to his back that gives him all sorts of cool powers, and Robin 3.0 who's basically a living ninja - guy gives me the creeps sometimes with how he disappears and reappears outta nowhere - and Wondergirl who pretty much has super-everything. And then there's Beast Boy and Arsenal and everyone else too.

[his smile turns a little wistful at the thought.]

I wish they were here with us. I bet they could get us out of this place in no time.

[waytobreakithero]

[ Awwwww, you're cute, kid. She listens with half understanding -- no idea what a ninja is, for example -- but they do sound like pretty interesting group of people. She reaches out and pats his shoulder when he looks sadder. ]

No doubt they could. If we put your friends and mine together, we'd pretty much rule this place.

What's your name?

[socrash]

You can call me Impulse.

[He almost spit out his name on accident - this lady seems nice and there's not that many of them stuck here on this island - but after numerous times of being yelled at for accidentally revealing secret IDs, Bart finally gotten it drilled into him that privacy is in fact a good thing.]

What about you? You look pretty crash and tough. You probably have a name that matches, huh?
