[astrad] truest definition of icebreaker ever

[iisupergirlii]

[Kara absolutely does not know about this, but her daemon is taking Kara-meeting-new-people matters into her own tentacled little hands by way of video advertisement.]

SPIRIT ANIMAL
Preferred Alias: Supergirl! Except when she's not Supergirl!
Spirit Animal: a "golden" "retriever" species: dog

5 WAYS I'M LIKE MY SPIRIT ANIMAL

1. She has yellow fur on her head!
2. She is a good strong friend!
3. She has a beautiful smile and lots of teeth!
4. She is very loyal [AstraD pronounces this as low-yal and gives a shrug like she doesn't know what that means but it sounds good!]
5. She can do lots of tricks! She can fly just like Earth dogs can! That's neat!

YOU can't fly.

[Astrad does not know if you can actually fly or not. Quit harshing her pop culture high. She attaches a picture with her next message. She's glaring at the camera, her chin resting on her hands. Behind her is a blur of blue and red - Kara sitting with her back to the little Lumir and reading in hers and Thea's apartment.]

You should watch the documentary "Air Bud."

[shadowblends]

uhm
no, i cannot.
which is unfortunate, but it's not the mutation i was graced with.

[Kurt can see from the image that Kara isn't the one speaking, taking into account she's sitting over there, concentrating on a book of some sort. He adjusts the camera, shuts his eyes and sticks his tongue out before snapping a picture that he sends back to the daemon.]

and what's this documentary about?

[iisupergirlii]

That is rude! I want to do it too.

[sure enough, Kurt receives another picture, this time with the alien sticking out a green tongue, her black eyes bright and happy. in this one, Kara is just starting to turn around, an alarmed look on her face.]

And I thought her messaging ONE person was bad enough!
Geez, I'm sorry. Thanks for humoring her. It's a cute picture. :)

[shadowblends]

[He's clearly amused by the fact Kara's shocked at her daemon's antics, but he doesn't want to embarrass her anymore than she might already be.]

it's no problem!
seems like your daemon is rather feisty. [oh, but she--]
thank you. (*´∀`*) sometimes, i guess i'm photogenic.

[iisupergirlii]

She's... certainly something. She's as sneaky as real Lumirs are, haha.

[shadowblends]

you know, i can't say that i know what a 'lumir' is.
the word looks unfamiliar.

[iisupergirlii]

Oh! Well, they're native to the planet Plektop, not sure if you've ever been there. It's right outside the Astro Gardens and absolutely beautiful.

When I was little, I had a Lumir as a pet, which probably explains my daemon. At least, I think.

lmao i am trying to find a picture of these things and i cannot find *anything*

[shadowblends]

i have not.
never heard of it, actually, but i'd love to go and see these gardens.

that would make sense!
my own daemon didn't make sense at first.
after looking up some traits about ocelots, i definitely understand now.

[iisupergirlii]

(ooc: of Lumirs? I've literally only ever found this and had to make up the rest lmfao.)

If you can ever manage it, I highly recommend it! I'm not really sure how to compare it to Earth because it's not a "garden" like Earth has.... but it's gorgeous and a wonderful place to vacation!

[Kara Danvers: Travelocity agent.]

So why an ocelot?

[shadowblends]

[ooc: oh my gosh yes fdgdfg that at least gives me an idea to work with lmao thank you!]

so, this is not a location on earth?
which means
it's in space?
being able to go somewhere like that would be absolutely marvelous!

[meet kurt, who might enjoy entertaining the idea of space travel more than he lets on.]

ocelots, while solitary creatures in the wild, are naturally curious and adventurous.
they're a lot like an overgrown cat in the way that once they learn to trust, you've made a friend for life.

so uh
i suppose that tells you i'm mostly extroverted with the tiniest bit of introvert?
and once i'm befriended, i'll be loyal to the end.
as long as you can deal with the awkwardness every now and then (⌒∇⌒)

[iisupergirlii]

It is in space! I... have friends who are aliens and have taken me there!

[ yeah... yeah, that. ]

Aww, that sounds really sweet!!

[shadowblends]

how interesting!
i have yet to meet any alien species on earth, but i'm sure there's a chance of it happening.

oh, thank you! that's very kind of you to say.
