[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!

If Earth dogs can fly, I don't know why mine hasn't yet.
But I like your spirit animal choice. Me and my eight dogs approve.

[iisupergirlii]

[the little green alien feverishly mentally types, having recently spent too much time researching internet and out of date pop culture...]

Focus point: yet.

I have intensely studied the entire collective works of Air Bud
and have expanded my knowledge base to include the obvious fact that dogs fly!

Thanks for liking, commenting, and subscribing! That's a lot of dogs.

[hasitsthorns]

Ah, yes. Air Bud. A classic. Truly an accurate depiction of dogkind.

[ Sarcasm doesn't translate well over text, does it? ]

It is!
But between me and my two boyfriends we manage to keep them in line.

[shadowblends]

[Another person pointing this out, but:]

earth dogs can't fly.
or if they can, they're sure doing a great job of avoiding it.

[iisupergirlii]

It was so educational! Basketball is the sport of the future.

How do you have so many boyfriends? Supergirl needs ten. Ooh - and ten girlfriends! That would be a good start, I think!!

[iisupergirlii]

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."

[hasitsthorns]

[ Unsure if meant as... girlfriend girlfriends or- Hm. Something to consider, at least. ]

I've always been more a fan of soccer myself.

I don't have enough, in my opinion! I'd love to have more. Or a girlfriend too. That'd be nice.

[iisupergirlii]

But HOW TO GET THEM??

[what Rose doesn't see just after the last message sends is the sudden struggle the Lumir faces as Kara realizes what it's doing. And then backreads this whole conversation. And then turns beet red. How does she apologize for this? Oh gosh.]

Holy Rao, I am so sorry. I didn't post all this. Oh gosh,
I don't need... that. Um.

Hi? It's nice to meet you?

[hasitsthorns]

[ Rose could actually try to answer that, but it seems to vary from person to person so... ]

Oh!
Daemon took the wheel, huh? I kind of figured, but... It was cute.

Hello!
My name's Rose. Nice to meet you too.

[iisupergirlii]

Yes.
And now she is in time out.

[the last is read aloud as Kara continues the message. She shoots Astrad a very pointed look and receives a tentacled kiss blown in her direction. Ugh. She's grown really attached to her daemon, but she thinks she let it mindlessly browse the network too long while she patrolled the beach. It's become convinced that Kara needs to fall in love and be social and do all these things that are dangerous to do!!]

My name is Supergirl. But I... guess you know that haha.

[hasitsthorns]

[ Rose's own daemon is a Golden Retriever brought from Eudio so she has a special attachment to him. While she's sometimes concerned with what him being her daemon now means, she... hopes she can take him with her when all this is said and done. ]

I do know that!
what's so super about you?

[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]

I have a lot of powers humans don't, but I didn't choose the whole "super" thing. Cat Grant gave it to me, and she's a media mogul, so...
it stuck pretty quickly!

[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. :)

[servomotor]

DOES SHE ALSO HAVE NUMEROUS IDENTICAL COUSINS?

[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]

[Astrad giggles at Tony's question, giving herself away, and Kara bolts up, eyeing the screen projecting from Astrad's head.]

Oh, he's funny!

[she rolls her eyes and signals for Astrad to tell him yes in... whatever funny little way she wants to.]

Yes! Her family is very strange. There's hundreds of them and they all look the same just like golden retrievers. I've seen them!

[iisupergirlii]

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

[hasitsthorns]

Media mogul, huh?
So you're famous back home?

[iisupergirlii]

A little bit, yeah, I guess. I got accidentally famous when I saved my sister when her airplane crashed.

[well...even considering the not small possibility some of those are lies, Mandy can't resist the bait]

While I am very curious to hear about flying dogs, I think I might be a little more curious to hear about some of her other tricks.

[shadowblends]

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

[hasitsthorns]

... accidentally famous
huh
didn't know that could happen, but
that's pretty cool

[servomotor]

[He is PERfectly funny thanks.]

HOW DO YOU TELL EACH OTHER APART? IS IT A PUNISHABLE CRIME TO SHOW UP SOMEWHERE IN THE SAME OUTFIT AS SOMEONE ELSE?

[iisupergirlii]

Well, my cousin kind of had things taken care of. I just saved my sister and then... cue spotlight!

It was pretty fun, though, getting to embrace who I was, not going to lie.
