Okay, look. Before you take me anywhere we've got to sit down and have a major talk about how this is going to go.

First, I need my suit. Showing up naked on a spaceship won't work because I will literally disintegrate into a bunch of jumped-up molecules that don't talk to each other long enough to form a brainwave. I know you like to challenge yourself, honey, but trust me: you do not want to play a mass of thoughtless particles. You will be bored out of your skull. And I'll be effectively dead.

Second, what's all this talk about nerfing me? Teleporting is kind of what I do. It's why I got hired, besides the fact that I look amazing in a dress and someone needed to fill the gaping void in certain people's hearts. It's part of who I am. I know you said no one's taking all my powers away, but jeez, what's a girl got to do to feel good about herself these days?

Wait... what? What the heck are you?

[look_ma_no_arms]

Way to start a conversation.

I'm a superhero. I'm also a being made of living energy that needs cute outfits to survive. Literally.

[imago]

Maybe without your powers, you'll be forced to develop a personality.

[look_ma_no_arms]

If you're the template for that, I'd rather not.

[soulinherfists]

I just ain't met anyone who dissolves before. Is there any way to put you back together if that happens?

[imago]

You're right. Why don't you go back to talking about filling out dresses? At least that was soothing white noise.

[look_ma_no_arms]

You know, I'd get mad, but haters gonna hate and all. I've gotten fanmail that's way more insulting than anything you've come up with.

[look_ma_no_arms]

You have to get me back in the suit. But you'd probably rather not be around me, since I have a tendency to explode things.

I used to be human, you know! Just like you. Or probably just like you. You are human, right?

[imago]

I didn't insult you. But you have my condolences. It must be tough having fans that make fun of you.

[soulinherfists]

Well I'd just have to be quick, wouldn't I?

Yup! Human as the day is long. So what happened to you?

[look_ma_no_arms]

Where I come from saying someone has no personality is pretty much an insult. Sorry if you didn't get the 101 on that.

Word to the wise about fans: no matter how beloved you are, there's always going to be some sour ones. The fact that they exist doesn't say anything about how the public feels about me.

[look_ma_no_arms]

Ain't no one that quick, honey.

I blew up. And now I'm like this. It's a long story.

[soulinherfists]

You just haven't met me yet.

I guess it'd have to be. You left out the bit about becomin' a superhero.

[imago]

It was an observation. I can't help it if you're thin-skinned. You should probably work on that if you intend on dealing with the public, though.

[encourage]

Not that I'd say Stacy might not try to pull the naked thing if she thinks she can, it's more pointless than even she seems to stoop to save someone just to let them disintegrate as soon as they're ready to wake up and join the rest of us.

[look_ma_no_arms]

An observation can also be an insult.

Do you see me crying?

[look_ma_no_arms]

I can't help but admire your guts. I'll try not to go nude around you, alright? I'd rather you not go sky high.

I auditioned.

[imago]

No, but I hear plenty of complaining.

[look_ma_no_arms]

I guess I've been on more futile missions, but it does seem a little like croaking before I even get out of the gate, doesn't it?

Also I might blow up the pod caverns. How often does this ship of yours make booboos?

[look_ma_no_arms]

I'm just not sure where all the hostility is coming from, is all. All I've done is protect innocents a few times.

[And make scads of money off it, but unlike certain teammates of hers, at least Venus gives a shit! Can she have her cookie now?]

[imago]

[There's no need to respond further. Putting a small crimp in Venus's day is really all Isako asks of life.

So she just wanders off, checking her email.]

[soulinherfists]

Well if it ever happens, I'll be able to handle it.

Oh yeah, is that so?

[look_ma_no_arms]

Well, I mean, it's not how all superheroes do it, but I couldn't cut it with the X-Men so X-Statix was pretty much my best shot! They needed someone else to fill the sexy spot, since the other girl on the team is dead.

[encourage]

... More often than anyone should be comfortable with.

[look_ma_no_arms]

Oh, goodie.

Well, if I blow up the next podpop, will you please make sure my grave's pretty? I guess it won't be the tourist trap it'd be on my homeworld but some flowers would be nice.
