Tossing Sparks

Hey! Lightning Lad of the Legion of Superheroes, here, default leader and all-around awesome. 'Sup? [An extremely WIP Independent Lightning Lad account.]

[affectuxforti]

Send me a [ . ][ . ] for my muse's reaction to seeing yours shirtless.

[lightninglad]

"Where did you learn to be a leader?"

"Oh, uh, hi."

"I didn't learn to be leader, I just was, y'know? Pretty awesome. I do a pretty great job of it, too."

"…. just becasue they can’t shoot lighting out you prick?"

[lightninglad]

He stopped, glancing back, and shook his head slowly, disbelieving. "Do you even listen to yourself talk? Or me talking? You sound like you don't." Either way, he didn't care, starting his walking back up again. "If you're the one that's got Brainy and Supes in such a fit, which I'm starting to think, ever think you're the problem, and not everyone else? I'm going to go talk to Saturn Girl, because you've given me a major headache I- I want her help with. Geeze."

"Actually, I have. Not much though. Really just the name. I’ve literally only heard of it.”

He blinked at the other boy upon hearing Brainiac 5 kept a file on him. He supposed that shouldn’t have really come as a surprise. It seemed like a thing he would do, and it wasn’t exactly the first time he’d had a file written about him. But it was still curious. 

"He kept a file on me? Like, about my powers and history?"

[lightninglad]

"...Really? Huh." That was... odd. He didn't think Winath was an official planet for a few more centuries, if he remembered his history right, although it was settled around this time... "Did Brainy mention that, is that how?"

"Nah, just important facts about you. Your friends, notes about them, stuff you like, all that nass." Breaking into Brainy's friend files was fun.

"Yeah, I guess.” He replied, and this time he did look slightly offended, but it only lasted a moment as he shoved his hands in his pockets and shrugged it off. “But robotic limbs are pretty rare, are more expense, require more maintenance, and are usually pretty permanent. Plus, the Titans were the ones footing the bill, so it was kind of up to them. The prostheses I have are about as advanced as they get anyway, and I can actually take them off if I want to.”

After a moment of mulling his words over he looked up at him curiously before asking. “Where are you from?”

[lightninglad]

"Ohhh." He didn't think they were that expensive, buuut okay. Things were weird here, and Garth gave an awkward, not quite comprehending half-smile at that. Weren't all new limbs pretty permanent? Why wouldn't you want non-permanent limbs, or ones you could take off...?

Yeah, he wasn't gonna ask.

"Oh, um. From the planet Winath, seriously don't think you've heard of it. You're in Brainy's files, so I was kiiiind of curious, don't tell him."

"… weird.. alternate… LISTEN BUCKO, I’M JUST AS MUCH LEGIONARRE AS YOU ARE. and you didn’t say lady with respect. You said it because you were pissed at me for being justifiably pissed you don’t even know who I am,when you should. "

[lightninglad]

"...I'm not pissed off at you." He just... stared at her, having absolutely no idea how on earth her mind even functioned. "You somehow know me. I don't know you. You are pissed off at me and glaring and yelling at me because I don't know who you are."

"Maybe you're a Legionnaire in your universe, but here, Legionnaires don't act like this. You're worse than Bouncing Boy and Triplicate Girl, and that's saying something." With that, he shook his head, turning to walk away. Dealing with the crazy? Not worth it.

"Then you better start listening to braniac.. maybe… I have to hedge my guess in case yours is that pompus twerp…. And don’t call me lady! I’m your equal. " She pulled her legion ring out and put it on, before showing it to him. "Show me some respect"

[lightninglad]

"..." Garth took a few steps back, wanting to put some distance between him and the crazy lady.

"Er... You tell me not to call you 'lady', which means your gender, duh, and then ask me to show you some respect? Listen, I've got no idea who you are, or what Brainiac has to do with this, but if you're from one of those weird alternate legions, just... go back. I don't want to be ordered around, glared at, and yelled at by someone I just met, geeze."

She glared, long and hard. 

"I"m supergirl SUPERGIRL. You guys recruited me remember? Although I guess you didn’t bother inn whatever timeline you come from….. seriously why didn’t you?!"

[lightninglad]

"-What?"

"Grife. Listen, lady, I've got no idea who you are. Calm the sprock down or go get help."

"I’m Supergirl."

Stupid universe crossing time travel.

"And you looked ridiculous."

[lightninglad]

"Super... girl? Like Superman?"

"And I looked great. You're the one who's wearing a skirt that people could see up when you fly."

"Tough talk from someone who wore booty shorts and a cape with shoulder pads last time I saw him.”

[lightninglad]

"I never wore shoulder pads!"

"You're just jealous because I pulled it off great. Person I don't know."

"Aaaaand I'm still lost."

"Did we have a fangirl invasion recently, did Supes do an interview I forgot to mock him about?"

[lightninglad]

"I feel like I missed something. Really big."
