YJLA HQ (Firestorm)
Her fabulous plan having gone into action, Vernique returned to the strange HQ with her damaged shoe. It was 'only' a Rocha; not a status shoe. But she liked her Rochas, so if it could be fixed, she was all for it. She looked around for the Firestorm/Michael guy.

	Michael used his time on monitor duty to do some of his homework. It was a paper for his History of Architecture 101, and his paper was (thankfully) the dawn of the skyscrapers. He started with the obvious ones: the Home Insurance Building in Chicago, the Gotham Heights Tower, and Empire State Building. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	She finally tracks him down. "Um, Michael, was it?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	masterofmatter 2011-01-10 05:08 am UTC (link)
	"Yeah, that's me." Michael doesn't look up from his work, his fingers typing away furiously (fast, but not amazingly fast. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah, I can do that. Whaddaya need?" Michael spins around, saving the file and pulling himself up from the seat as he went. "And what were you planning with Jon?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Vernique holds up the shoe and the heel. "I broke a shoe; that's all." She smiles sheepishly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	masterofmatter 2011-01-10 05:47 am UTC (link)
	"Uh-huh," Michael says. He flashes Verinque a knowing smile before activating his powers. "Now, lemme take a look...?" Michael looks at the shoe odd. Holds it up in another position. "Looks weird to me. Everything lines up but, somethings off. i guess its the dimensional thing." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2011-01-10 05:55 am UTC (link)
	"Oh. That's weird. Like matter is actually different here?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	masterofmatter 2011-01-10 05:59 am UTC (link)
	"No, its not different. Its just...its hard to explain. Its kind of like trying to do something in a mirror, except the mirror is at a weird angle. Everything's there and everything's the same, just the perspective is whats different." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2011-01-10 06:05 am UTC (link)
	"Oh. Interesting. Well, if you can fix it, I'd appreciate it. If not, it's fortunately not one of those shoes with a price that could feed a family of twelve for a month. I left all of those at home." Pause. "Confirm something for me. Jon's single, right?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	masterofmatter 2011-01-10 06:07 am UTC (link)
	"Lemme guess, you're trying to hook up your blond friend?" With a wave of his hand, the heel is returned to pristine condition. In fact, it may look a little better than the pairs other shoe. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2011-01-10 06:10 am UTC (link)
	"I will neither confirm nor deny until my success is evident, but I'd hate to think my instincts have failed me. He's single and has been for quite some time?" And Vernique beams. "Thanks!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	masterofmatter 2011-01-10 06:13 am UTC (link)
	"Yeah, he's single. I'd have thought he would be interested in Corinna, but there's nothing there. And your friend? I've seen high schoolers hide their interest better than her." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hey, some people didn't get to get any practice in high school. And not knowing anything about subtlety is a cultural thing." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	masterofmatter 2011-01-10 06:38 am UTC (link)
	"That may be true, but her interest was obvious. Except to the Boy Scout himself. And you're welcome for the shoe. Lucky for me it was mostly synthetic material I used for the patch job." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yes, well, please don't tell Svalin that she blushes like a forest fire. She might get neurotic about it being unwarriorly or something." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	masterofmatter 2011-01-10 06:51 am UTC (link)
	Michael rolls his eyes at that suggestion. "Unwarriorly. Jeez, she must have grown up with your version of the Bana Amazons to think like that." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2011-01-10 06:56 am UTC (link)
	"Sort of, but wrong pantheon. Her people think the Greeks are way too laid back. She's great, and I love her, just... she's not used to the softer side of Sears, let me tell you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	masterofmatter 2011-01-10 07:01 am UTC (link)
	"Laid back? You've obviously never seen the Amazons of this world. Most of them besides Wonder Woman, Corinna, and a few others they can be downright nasty." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"My, my. At home, the Greeks are the Party Pantheon. Corrina does seem very nice." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Never met the Norse one here. I'm kind of new, but we had to fight the Titans of Myth here. not a pretty sight." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Sounds rough." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"My first big fight, too. And I blew." Michael snickers a little bit at that one. "Literally." (Reply to this)(Parent)
