Sorry, K.

[kaleidoscopeeyes]

I guess I was asking for the username. I think the keywords are a little much, and so is the display name...

I'm not sure how I feel about roleplay. Isn't that how Alex prepared for everything? How do I know you're not, you know, setting people up?

"Oh, oh! I know that song! I love that song, too! It's from...A little before the 70s, right? I think? The chorus is really catchy though."

[And she is THIS CLOSE to singing it out loud, to add that onto what's turning into a scattershot approach of meeting someone new and trying to make a good first impression.]

[kaleidoscopeeyes]

I think so? My dad bought me this "Best Of" CD once.

[But she smiles, the natural peacemaker in her trying to put M'gann at ease.]

It's such a weird song, I guess that's why people like it.

[littlewhitelies]

"I heard it thanks to my uncle. I think it might have been one of those 'Top Hits' things, that he sent to us. I just really...Like how it sounds? Not because it's weird or anything."

[She feels the need to clarify that.]

"Which...Is fine too, but not why I-"

[Okay, this is going to get awkward fast. Time to switch gears?]

"Um, but what does the song have to do with you? If you don't mind me asking?"

[kaleidoscopeeyes]

Well, I think my parents... liked it. I used to think they appreciated it because, you know, it seems to encourage free thinking with help from drugs and they were really into the whole love your fellow man thing.

[Now she's not really sure if they had liked it at all.]

I decided to call myself Lucy in the Sky for a little bit. So calling me that on this site must have made sense.

[She's a little embarrassed by it.]

I like the way it sounds, too. [Xavin asked the Skrull band to play it at their wedding... it still struck her as very kind.]

[littlewhitelies]

"W-wait? You mean like a code name?"

[See how much she brightens from that? Her skin might even shift a saturation level higher, with how excited it makes her. This could be common ground, after all!]

she is remarkably fun to icon you can imagine

[starscrossed]

Well, I guess I went through a phase of not wanting to use the name my parents gave me.

You know... Hollywood parents always give their kids weird names.

[Delicately sidestepping that one.]

I can imagine well!

[littlewhitelies]

"They...Do?"

[A moment to blink as she tries to comprehend that. Sure, she's used 'Megan' in the past with adopting a new Earth name, but the whole 'Hollywood' thing throws her for a loop. And-

And wait.

Wait.

One can SEE the moment this realization dawns on M'gann.]

"D-did you just say...Hollywood? As in, the Earth place with all the movies? You're from there? Your parents are from there?"

[kaleidoscopeeyes]

Oh. Yes. I've lived there... most of my life.

[And she can't name them because everyone will recognize them as being from the Pride.]

Most celebrities like to give their kids original names. To be recognizable, I guess.

So my name is Karolina. With a K.

[molecula]

[beeee cool, Julie. be cool. just smile and take it easy because who knows point in their time Karolina is at.]

Hey, it could be worse. I know I've come up with more ridiculous superhero names in my career.

yeah i have no idea what point in time she's at either SO UH

[kaleidoscopeeyes]

[Sunshiny warm smile just for you, Julie.]

They were probably shorter... Chase shortened it to L.S.D. once.

GO TEAM MAKING SHIT UP.

[molecula]

You'd think that, but they really weren't. Twelve year old me came up with the name "Molecula, Mistress of Density."

IT'S KIND OF IC FOR RUNAWAYS RITE

[kaleidoscopeeyes]

It's a very confident name.

[THAT IS THE NICEST THING SHE CAN SAY WITHOUT COMPARING IT TO PRINCESS POWERFUL.]

Did it make you feel better about going up against the bad guys?

PREEEEEETTY MUCH

[molecula]

[OH PLEASE, JULIE KNOWS THAT MOLECULA: MISTRESS OF DENSITY IS DUMB AS HECK.]

Tell you the truth, it kind of did! Still, I'm glad I swapped back to Lightspeed.

all right so i needed moar icons

[starscrossed]

[But in a cute way...]

I think Lightspeed is a better name, too. But they all work, and you know, names aren't that big of a deal.

nooot a problem. c:

[molecula]

[Is that Julie blushing? Yes that is Julie blushing a bit.]

You're right, they aren't. It's just having the name that matters-at least, that's what matters when you run in my circle of the superhero biz.

[aka Avenger stuff]

[starscrossed]

[Julie why are you cute when you blush her knees are weakening just a little good thing she can fly.]

Well, having the name and living up to it, right?

[withlucyinthesky]

I think it suits you, beloved. Your mun has good taste.

okay so i needed more icons

[starscrossed]

[She wraps her arms around Xavin's shoulders.]

Well, you liked it enough to want it played at our wedding, too.

Sorry, had net trouble

[withlucyinthesky]

[ leans into Karolina]

That quartet is quite impressive, to create something so pleasing even to my ears.

[ sensitive skrull hearing]

Using your image is a great way to learn the lyrics.

you are fine!!

[starscrossed]

Apparently, popular music was never the same...

[She is happy with this hug okay? Okay.]

Don't say that! Some people say they wrote the song high on drugs including McCartney I think and then Chase told me once I looked like an acid trip...

[She giggles a little.]

Re: you are fine!!

[withlucyinthesky]

[ she's staying in her betrothed's embrace for as long as possible.]

I thought it was officially based on a child's drawing.

[ Xavin missed out on the code names ]

[kaleidoscopeeyes]

I think that was originally it, but they changed their minds later.

[Do all adults do that? Lie and sugarcoat? It's really beginning to depress her.]

I think they told one story to keep from being banned. I like the drawing story better, for what it's worth. I do know one of their songs was written for a band member's son when his parents broke up.

[withlucyinthesky]

It's cute, and more interesting than adding to a collection of drug based songs.

They had plenty of songs with more positive messages.

[bisexuals]

There are worse user names. Yours really isn't so bad!

[kaleidoscopeeyes]

[Two Julies and a Xavin... add Nico and if she hasn't had this dream before, Chase definitely has.]

Sometimes it isn't. Other times it makes me feel a little childish... like codenames in general.
