[ofclay]

All this time you've had this account, and rereading one of my comics is all it took to make you finally want to do something with me?

[She smiles and shakes her head a little in a sort of fond, bemused way.]

It is nice to finally have something to do. It's felt... wrong to sit idle for so long. The only question now is if you're planning on doing anything more, or if I'm to be left to gather dust again.

[cowled]

I doubt that even at your most idle you'd be 'gathering dust', Diana.

[He's got the playboy airs on today, evidenced by the way he's adjusting the cuffs of his suit as he speaks.]

Sorry! I'm still gathering icons

[ofclay]

[She just looks at him with eyebrow raised o Bruce.]

What else is there to do around here, if I'm trapped in a headspace?

[hexappeal]

Want me to talk some sense into 'em?

[ofclay]

I'm not entirely sure it can be done - Hera knows I've tried.

[hexappeal]

You're too nice about it. You're the good cop, D. You have to let me try my hand at it.

[ofclay]

It seems like that title should go to Clark, if it goes to anyone.

[hexappeal]

It can be a shared title. Or, maybe you're the Good Detective. [Bruce is Chaotic Good, of course.]

[ofclay]

[She laughs]

All right fine, what would you do?

[hexappeal]

I think if I told you, you would disapprove. But! Know that some would approve of my methods. [Some that she seems to choose not to name right now, apparently...]

[ofclay]

[Diana just folds her arms and is giving her A Look]

[hexappeal]

...Deadman would like it?

[andaway]

If said comic got you out of your mundane's headspace you won't find me complaining. It's always very nice to see you, Diana.

[ofclay]

Nor I - it's good to be out, finally. It's nice to be able to see you as well.

[andaway]

You, Bruce and I can apparently be very intimidating to play, but now that they have gotten you out it might be easier.

Do they have any plans for you yet?

[ofclay]

[She laughs a little at that]

It's funny you should mention Bruce - her headspace is already overflowing with him. If I'm intimidating, then I guess at least I fit in.

Not yet. We'll see if any end up developing.

[andaway]

Does it now? [A little grin] If she's able to handle him of all people I'm sure she will not have any trouble at all with you.

Well... I know Bruce and I could use your level-headness in the turtle.

[tough_love]

Make them find you worthy foes to battle! Or fortunes to plunder!

Ooh! Maybe both!

[Giant four-armed teenagers and their excitability, yeesh.

But it beats being idle, right?]

[ofclay]

Worthy foes to battle can be a gift, provided the reason for that battle doesn't involve anyone else being hurt. Fortunes to plunder, however, aren't usually a priority of mine.

[tough_love]

Why would you refuse an opportunity to engage in plunder? Do you not enjoy the spoils of war?

[She sounds genuinely confused here. Probably because there's a cultural gap here that not even Superman could leap in a single bound.]

[ofclay]

[She hums thoughtfully for a moment, because yeah she's kind of getting that, as she tries to figure out how best to word this.]

It's more that I'd prefer to avoid war itself, where possible. Certain battles cannot be avoided, but my mission is one of peace.

[tough_love]

...that sounds dreadfully boring.

[WELL, IT DOES. Granted, she's aware there's a limit to how much you can and should conquer, it's just practical, but actively trying NOT to? Uuuugh, humans.]

[ofclay]

Have you ever thought of it as a challenge of a different sort?

[Amazon excuse you]

[tough_love]

[WHATEVER, ALL YOU HUMANS LOOK ALIKE.]

Of course not! Why would I? Not only would it be boring, but Daddy would be so disappointed.

[Granted, she's aware of a few alternatives that would probably be received well enough, but they involve sitting around doing nothing and just waiting for trouble to happen and that's still pretty incredibly dull.]

[jokester_not_joker]

Yet another one of the Amazons. Good to see ya! I hope you're one of the good guys or this will be a really awkward greeting.

[ofclay]

I am - or I like to think I am. Actions do speak louder than words, but I try to make sure mine are helpful.

What do you mean by yet another?

[jokester_not_joker]

Well there's the one in my version of Earth. Another lady I just met earlier and then there's you.

[gonefission]

You know, I used to pray for a chance to do nothing all day.

[ofclay]

I notice you say 'used to'.

[gonefission]

You know what they say, careful what you wish for.

[ofclay]

I have heard that once or twice. I take it that you're living that?

[gonefission]

That, and complaining is a hobby of mine.

Good to see you're stretching your legs, at least.

[ofclay]

I can't tell you how nice it is to have the chance to.

[gonefission]

Here's hoping you get to stick around.

[ofclay]

We'll see - I'm not convinced I'll be able to. My mun isn't very confident with my voice, and feels like she hasn't read nearly enough of my canon to be so. She's... something of a perfectionist.

[This last bit is said with just a bit of the air of a sigh, she is SURROUNDED by people who must have all things done all right all the time, with no room for forgiveness or error. And while it's a reasonable enough attitude often enough, it's still juuust a little tiresome sometimes.]

[gonefission]

I can... sort of see where they're coming from. You are kind of a big deal.

[Oh, wait. Nate, you fool!]

Not to put pressure on them or anything.

[ofclay]

[Looking at him with eyebrow raised]

I wouldn't say so much more so than some.

[gonefission]

[Okay Nate, why don't you just get your shovel out here. You can only dig up.]

You're being modest, but that's part of it I guess. I mean, when a woman wants to say they're not amazing they say they're 'not Wonder Woman.'

[Oh sweet chrome finish what is he talking about?]

[emeraldcrusader]

I'll second Clark here and say it's also very good to see you, Diana.

[ofclay]

And I'll repeat a sentiment of before - it's nice to see you as well, Hal.

[emeraldcrusader]

I'm sure it feels good to be able to stretch a bit.

[escarabajo]

[Oh God. It's Wonder Woman. Jaime very discreetly checks that there's nothing on his face or anything before, uh, nervously addressing her--]

I hope your mun does give you something to do, ma'am. A lot of games here are pretty dangerous, but I'm sure they're nothing you can't handle.

[notsosubtle]

Di--Wonder Woman! [Have an overly excited Wonder Girl.]

Your mun better not leave you to collect dust! There's way too many other things for you to be doing!

[to_serve]

[With a glare at her own mun.]

It seems they are want to do this.

[hotsexyamazon]

Interesting to see another me. It is hard to be idle for so long, though gathering dust hardly seems like something either of us would do.
