homeless, maybe looking

[molecula]

Of all the usernames you could choose for me, you pick the one that I came up with when I was twelve.

Seriously?! I barely remember 'Molecula: Mistress of Density', there's no need to drag it around again. I guess I'm too late to protest?

Yours, Julie Power (also known as Lightspeed. Not Molecula. Stop bringing that up.)

Wait, wait wait wait. Lightspeed? When did you get to be so ... not a preteen?

Oh my god, I'm old.

[[UH I haven't read much old school Power Pack but it's Power Pack and Spider-Man, so I'm assuming they've teamed up at some point, right?]]

[molecula]

I guess I grew up? Uh...surprise?

[Power Pack teamed up with everybody under the sun, so yeah they probably did team up.]

[incywincyhero]

I'll say. So what are you and your sibs up to these days, anyway? I hear your older brother's hanging with the FF, but I haven't heard much from the rest of you, lately.

[molecula]

Well, I moved out to California for a while. I'm still out there now actually-I'm working with the Avengers Academy.

[incywincyhero]

Oh, yeah, I subbed in for Hank and company once, before they made the move. Good kids, all of them.

Well, most. But they'll get there.

[molecula]

I like all of them. Though, it's kind of weird thinking of them as 'students'. I'm just a few years older than some of them-I've just been doing this since the dawn of time.

Do you go at the speed of light? Is that why you went by Lightspeed?

I thought I did, when I was younger. I'm not sure if I can actually fly that fast, though.

You should totally race someone who's like kinda face then. Just not a speedster because they're all tricky fast.

how's life?

[molecula]

Like who, then?

pretty good. u?

[unicornsforall]

Um. Like Ms. Marvel? I think she's supposed to be fast. And she flies! Or she did, I dunno if she does anymore. History is so boring.

[incywincyhero]

Well, hey, even by the standards of the under-16 hero set, you guys got started young. But I get what you mean -- sometimes I actually forget I used to be a teen hero myself. The whole mindset these days is so different. Back in the day, it was just -- what, me, Johnny Storm, and Iceman? Maybe a couple of others? Now it's something that can go on your college application.

[molecula]

Yeah really. Avengers Academy just got a ton of new teen heroes, myself included. I haven't seen any as young as we were around yet, thank God.

pretty good as well.

[molecula]

It's not really history, it's knowing about your future teammates.

c:

[unicornsforall]

Can't I just learn about them while we're teaming up?

[molecula]

What if you have to fight them before you team up?

[incywincyhero]

One of the upsides to all this post-Civil War organization, I guess -- it's harder for new heroes to slip through the cracks.

[And yes, there's a tinge of guilt there.]

[recurve]

I like it. I think it's got pizazz.
