Re: Kattakkara Estate

Jared frowned slightly, but then let it pass, grabbed a plate, and followed Candy into the house.  He noticed that she was an attractive lady, and hoped the slug in his brain wasn't broadcasting his innermost thoughts.  That might be... inconvenient.

Re: Kattakkara Estate

  She let him snag a plate, then headed over to the house, opening the door to reveal a positively palatial kitchen that had more windows, and was bigger, than it looked if one peeked in the window!  It was definitely breaking the laws of physics.  What he walked into, did not match what one expected to be within.

Jared stopped, and he said, "It's a bloody TARDIS.  Huh."

Re: Kattakkara Estate

Jeff soon entered the kitchen, waving at Candy.

"Hey Candy.." he said, smiling. "Who's your new friend?"

   Candy indicated Jared, and said "Jeff, this is Jared, Jared, this is my boyfriend, Jeff."  She grinned at the comment, and said "Oh yes, it's bigger inside than out, that's for sure."

Re: Kattakkara Estate

Jared extended his hand to Jeff, and said, "Hey.  Jared Argent.  Good to meet you."

Then he smiled, and said, "I see Candy is a teleporter, which is a highly useful skill.  What do you do, if i'm not being impolite by asking?"

Jeff returned the handshake, and told him "I'm a cryomancer. I can make things freeze and raise or drop the temperature around us."

"Uh....yeah..." Jeff replied to Jared. "So, what brings you to our humble abode, Mr. Argent?"

Re: Kattakkara Estate

Jared shrugged.  "Apparently one of Megaira's aunts?  I was sent here by metaphysical means.  So, I guess I'm here to join you?"

"If you received a message from one of Meg's aunts, chances are you're supposed to be here. Welcome to our house of craziness," Jeff replied.

Re: Kattakkara Estate

Jeff nodded at Jared, then looked at Candy, then back at him.

"Seems everyone has a story to tell. Care to fill us in on what that story might be?"

Re: Kattakkara Estate

Jared shrugged.  "I was a Captain in the Army, 5th Special Forces group, attached to the 82nd Airborne.  I was in Afghanistan, and told to take a location.  I ordered a mortar strike, and the intel was wrong; it was a school."

He exhaled.  "There was an inquiry.  I was not charged, given an honorable discharge and a medal.  But the damage had been done, and I had been changed.  I took the codename, "Revenant", because I could see evil.  I had somehow developed these odd, dark powers, and felt compelled to find bad guys and bring them to justice."

Then he shrugged again.  "I'm not prone to a lot of introspection; I kick ass, take names, and move on.  I don't really care how I got my powers."

He held out his arm, and a sword appeared, double-edged, with a straight blade, made of black metal with the star-filled night sky reflecting in it, and he said, "This will cut anything."

He opened his hand, and the blade disappeared.

He shrugged again.  "So that's it.  The whole story."

Re: Kattakkara Estate

Jeff nodded at the story.

"All things considered, there's more than likely a reason why you are here. You should talk to Meg's mom...her name is Lin. She has a way of helping people find their purpose. She's pretty cool too, in her own sort of way."

  Candy nodded, and said "I bet he'd like Andy.  As Andy's pretty laid back too.  And Ozzy.  Definitely."

Re: Kattakkara Estate

  "I think most of us are somewhat relaxed out of spite of the things we are these days."  At the very least, that was partly true in his own case.  He wasn't nearly as polite back when he had a face.

  "For what it's worth, I'm sorry you had to make that shot.  Knowing something isn't your fault doesn't make it easier to not blame yourself anyways."

Re: Kattakkara Estate

Jared just chuckled.  "Mom's can't be cool; it's in the job description."

Then his grin slipped, and he shrugged, "Like I said, I'm not big on introspection.  My purpose is to do good deeds and battle evil.  Not that I'm not delighted to meet Megaira's mother, of course, but I don't know as I need much guidance."

Re: Kattakkara Estate

  Darren grinned, and said "The pleasure's mine.  I'm the local waterman, if you need something wet, talk to me.  I can also effectively spy on anything you need to infiltrate with plumbing.  Bill went to school, I got all my classes done, so I was going to hang around the pool."

Re: Kattakkara Estate

Jared smiled.  "Of course there's a pool here."

Then he shook his head at the implied invitation, and said, "I have to get myself settled in, and learn where the important things are here, like, the training room, the gym, etc.  PT is important."

Re: Kattakkara Estate

    Darren half smiled, and said "There's an indoor pool and a gym too, but I tend to prefer using the pool outside.  I like the fresh air.  And it's more exercise to walk back and forth.  Anyway, the ceilings will also tell you which way you're headed, inside.  East is sunrises, west is sunsets, north has the aurora borealis, south has the southern skies, and in the middle of the house there are noonday suns on the ceilings."

Re: Kattakkara Estate

Jared looked up, and then said, "Interesting.  Useful."

Then he looked at the folks there, and asked, "I'm sure the reason I am here will become clear to me over time, but why are YOU all here, and why is HERE, here?  What do you do?  Do you work for the city, or for the feds, or for some shadowy agency?  WHo pays the bills, and what, generally, do they want?"

Re: Kattakkara Estate

  Darren sort of grinned, and said "Megs pays the bills, and here is the way it is, because she's such a sweetie, she wanted a place she could offer a home to ALL of her friends.  The rest of us?  We all decided for varying reasons to be heroes, and use the exceptional abilities we have to fight crime and try to protect people from being abused by other people like us, with exceptional abilities.  We have an HQ for official stuff, but it's elsewhere.  This is Megs' home, and a lot of the rest of us too."
