FOR SCIENCE!
The woods near Gotham City

Other than talking in her head and occasionally popping up scans she couldn't understand, Dinah had yet to be able to get Khaji Da to work for her.  She'd tried its name, tried "Shazam", tried "flame on," and several other catch phrases without success.  Even reading over the notes her dad, Dani Garret, and Jaime himself had written hadn't turned up anything. 

It made sense, of course.  The Scarab wasn't meant to transfer hosts the way it had.  The trauma of Jaime's injuries had surely been passed onto it as well.  But there had to be some way to reactivate it fully.

So Dinah had gotten Riley to take her out where the could do a reasonable amount of property-free damage experimenting.  She was a little worried that he'd brought the book with the list of ways they'd tried to see if he had the metagene though.

"Okay, so maybe we need some kind of threat?"

"Legionnaire tech isn't gonna lose to some space bug!" A pause. "No offense, Khaji!" He pours on the speed.

Dinah tried for a little bit of aerial acrobatics, slowing down and letting Riley shoot past her, then catching up and tapping him on the shoulder.

Football-trained reflexes kick in and Riley spins around, grabbing Dinah by the ankle, clamping on rather than just tagging.

With contact initiated, options started scrolling in front of Dina's vision in scarab-script, which she could halfway make out.

She quickly discarded the more lethal options, and settled for one that seemed to be some kind of magnetic field inversion repulsion.

Riley's forcefield kicks on just as he gets sent flying by the effect.

"Woah!"

He regains himself, then stares up at her. "That still counts as my point!" He takes off at full speed.

"You wish!" Dinah called out, flying after him.

As she got closer, she tried for the extending limb option, and the right arm of the armor extended out, the hand turning into grasping pincers.

"Don't let it put anything in my butt!" Riley dives back down into the trees.

"You're crazy!" Dinah calls after him, keeping pace just behind him.

She was really doing remarkable well for a first time independent flier.

"Wait? What?" she asked the Scarab. "Watch out for that..."

SMACK!

She collided with the tree branch and tumbled to the ground below.

"Dinah!" Riley doubles back, diving down to catch her.

He swoops underneath, adjusting the forcefield strength to ease her into his arms.

"I claim this land for Spain!" Dinah babbled, pointing skyward.

Riley shakes his head. "We've been through this before. Portugal, not Spain, settled Brazil."

Dinah's faceplate peeled back again and she blinked her eyes a few times.

She leaned up and kissed him. "Well, either way, I'm claiming you."

She smiled. "Not too bad a test run, except for the smack there."

"Yeah well, I know I make the whole flying thing look easy." He smirks, then kisses her again.

"Besides," she said after the kiss, "if you're flying ahead of me, I have more time to stare at that spectacular ass of yours."

Riley chuckles. "I've always thought if it as more 'amazing' than spectacular."
