Arrival: For Korra

[Kon wakes up the second his body hits the water and it takes him entirely too long to process the fact that yes, he is now somehow submerged in a body of water, and no, he had not been flying over a body of water at all. This is what he gets for flying into swirly vortexes in the sky instead of calling for back up. It is not the first time he's woken up without a clue as to how he got somewhere and it won't be the last, but that doesn't make it any less disconcerting. Even more disconcerting however is that he is just realizing that he is not alone in the water. That is definitely an elbow pressing into his stomach and a knee digging into his side. He blinks stupidly for a second and attempts to disentangle himself from the person (girl???) he'd apparently run into when something else in the water catches his eye.

Something large and not at all man made and heading right towards them and—NO THANK YOU. Kon has seen this movie and he is out of the water and hovering in the air so fast he doesn't even have time to say hello to the (definitely a) girl in his arms who he takes with him without a thought. Chivalry is not leaving ladies behind to be eaten by giant...things.]

What'd, I fall asleep and crash into the set of Jaws 5?!


Base: Open to all (video)

-at is this, like some fancy gadget Robin would—oh hey, is it on? [A face leans into the camera giving everyone a very nice view of a teenage boy with one very stylish fadecut and (one) pierced ear looking like he just walked out of a nineties music video. He steps back when he's sure it's on, eyebrows furrowed for a second before his expression slips into a searching frown.]

Okay so, seeing as there are giant living moving tentacled rock monsters in the ocean, I'm guessing I'm not in Kansas anymore. [Kon's hilarious and would explain the joke to everyone if it wouldn't completely out Superman's identity. Clark ruins all of his fun.] Does anyone know exactly what planet we're on? And what's the deal with this Ursula chick because if she's anything like the one with the tentacles from the movie, I'm not really feeling the trusting her thing. Why does everything here have tentacles...?

I've got about a million questions about what the hell's going on here. Anyone care to fill me in?

Saw something in the sky that looked like a vortex and when I flew through it, I blacked out and woke up here. [Well, not precisely here so much as falling on top of Korra but details details.]

What about you?

[highflights]

I got a distress call from a spaceship — it was weird, I blacked out on the way but found the ship. There was no one on board except someone in a cryostasis pod. He had some kind of homing signal that led us here.

[checkoutmyttk]

Whoa, that's way creepier than my story. So wait, how'd you get here from the downed ship? You just flew?

[highflights]

Yeah, we found a small sub to bring us down here.

[checkoutmyttk]

We? [Please tell him there isn't another Super that he doesn't know about yet.]

[highflights]

Oh, me and the man who was in the pod. His name's Steve Rogers.

You know the really creepy part? There was no one else on the ship and only his pod was still working. Navigation, engines, all shot.

[checkoutmyttk]

[Ugh okay yeah, that's pretty damn creepy.]

Maybe we're in the Bermuda Triangle. [Pause.] Except the multiverse version of it. [What, it's totally a plausible theory.]

Maybe we can go out flying and see what we can find. There has to be some clue about this place out there, right?

[highflights]

[ She rubs at her temples. ]

Right. At the very least maybe we can figure out more about this planet if we know what lives here. The technology here is similar enough to Krypton's — there have to be more remnants out there, and maybe survivors.

[checkoutmyttk]

[Kon glances outside of the conveniently glass tunnels and frowns.] Or you know, maybe we can go tomorrow. [He nods at the fading sunlight. No way does he want to go looking around a strange planet at night.

His eyebrows furrow and he shoots a look at her.] So does this place have a place to crash or something?

[highflights]

[ Kara's gaze follows his out, and she nods. Bad idea to go wandering in a strange place at night. ]

There's air beds, I guess we could find an empty spot and sleep there.

[checkoutmyttk]

[Oh right, in the kit from the not a Disney!Villain AI.]

Might as well find someplace to stay for the night at least. [Kon doesn't plan on sticking around for weeks or months like some people are saying, but he knows when it's better to get some shut eye and try again tomorrow. Or at least that's the plan, he doesn't need to sleep quite yet.]

I take it there are actual rooms for sleeping somewhere around here.

[highflights]

Yeah. We can take turns sleeping if you want. I don't need that much.

[checkoutmyttk]

Oh right, that's probably smart. [Kon doesn't technically need that much sleep, but he sure enjoys it.]

Alright, lead the way SG.
