Okay Mun; I really don't think this is a good idea. Can't we just...keep on looking for a Kal-El instead?

...


please?

Hello, there. You've found one.

Hopefully your Mun isn't trying to make you do anything too crazy Miss....?

[He recognizes the symbol of course, but not her specifically.]

[cir_el]

Oh! Hey! Uhm, not me specifically. Just, this world that I'm in doesn't have a Kal-El right now and so she's looking into options on that. Oh yes I'm sorry I'm Cir-El. Uhm, I think we met in the real real Canon but my timeline got erased or something.

[mr_mildmannered]

I see. Though, it looks like you've taken something of my mantle on yourself? Especially with the last name El.

[He extends a hand and smiles warmly.] It's nice to meet you. Again.

[cir_el]

[Like anyone could refuse that handshake xD] Nice to meet you too. It was kind of given to me. And I try to do a good job but it's kind of lonely with no one else really like this around. There are some powerful people in the world but you know...it's not the same.

[mr_mildmannered]

Believe me, I understand what that's like all too well. But I'm sure the people around you appreciate the work you do, even if it's not the same as having people around that share your situation. Sometimes, that has to be enough for a while.

Do you mind if I ask you a little about yourself? We share a last name and your symbol is sort of like mine. My Mun knows a rough account, but says it's best to get it from you directly, and I'm inclined to agree.

[cir_el]

Sure! There's a lot of stuff about me that has been changed from the original story. Mostly because there wasn't very much to begin with. But my Mun is pretty open with me so I can give you both versions if you want!

[mr_mildmannered]

I suppose my main questions are pretty simple - Are we related, if not then are you Kryptonian anyway, and how did we meet last time? I actually feel a little bad that I don't remember you if we're supposed to have been somehow close. Believe me, it's not intentional on my part.

[xochipilli_cursed]

You mean Superman?

[cir_el]

Yeah! Uhm, I probably just should have said that to begin with shouldn't I.

[xochipilli_cursed]

His own fault for having so many nick names.

By the way, I just have to say, this place is so cool!

So, uh, who are you?

[cir_el]

It is really interesting! Oh yeah I'm Cir-El. I think the 'canon' me used to be called Supergirl but I'm over 20 and don't really want to be called a girl. So yeah just uhm...Cir-El.

[xochipilli_cursed]

Oh, yeah, I can see why you wouldn't want to be called that. I doubt he'd like being called "Superboy."

I kind of get tired of being called "pup."

[cir_el]

Oh geez that sounds really condescending! Why do people call you that?

[big_blue_boyscout]

What's the matter?

[He gives reassuring smile]

Because I'm here to help, if I can.

[cir_el]

Okay see; there's no "you" in the world I live in right now. There used to be but that was a long time ago. And the Mun was trying to think of alternatives so she came up with this guy uhm...Majestic? And he seems kind of harsh you know? So I'm worried. [Remember to take a breath Cir-El]

[big_blue_boyscout]

Harsh how?

[cir_el]

Not evil I don't think just uhm...She's used the term "Warrior Culture" to describe where he came from. So that kind of harsh I guess.

[big_blue_boyscout]

Ahh, I know the type.

Well, maybe I could help? I'm sure my mun wouldn't mind one more game.

[cir_el]

Oh wow that would be so so great! [she is extremely excited now]

[notdreaming]

What do you want with my cousin?

[cir_el]

Just you know; I guess someone I can relate to? I mean, we have some really strong people but I'm the only one with the 'S' right now and I'm not actually from that uhm...your family.

[notdreaming]

You can't assume because the powers are the same that you can really relate.

For one thing he's more Terran than Kryptonian.

[cir_el]

Well yeah. But so am I. I mean I was pretty much average until all this was done to me. I could have maybe spent my entire life never knowing I wasn't human.

[notdreaming]

Well then the two of you can commiserate over how much you love Earth.

[cir_el]

I...guess? You don't like the planet? I mean, I haven't had a chance to compare it with other inhabited worlds but it's been pretty good to me.
