It's Friday Night: Do You Know Where Your Superhero Kids Are?
Henry grins as he makes certain the bowls of chips are filled. Sodas are available. He's got a hidden stash of beers in his room, but... it's an underage superhero party. They're not visible to most. Those who want one will know to ask him.

People will be arriving soon. He's got tunes, he's got snacks and drinks, he's got games set up to go, and he's got superhero kids coming from all over. While the primary purpose was to make certain the YJLA got a chance to meet Avalon and Josh, the Titans and others have all been invited, too.

This party will rock.

	Still dressed in her Indigo clothing (which amounts to little more than strips of cloth) Katima decided to brave the party, offering shy smiles as she moved through the group. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	He'd have whistled, but it would have been rude. After all, that was the girl Henry had been talking about. Shebreathed into his hand and sniffed it before walking up from behind to Katima's right. "Hey there! M'name's Keith. Nice you meet you!" He held out his hand for a handshake. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

His mood's not so good after his talk with the stretchy detective girl but Josh isn't going to flee the party. Henry might get mad at him if he did that and Josh doesn't want to anger the guy.

As he goes to grab another soda, Josh's senses pick up on the life signal of the Indigo Lantern and the odd feeling those cosmic rings give off. He shrugs and starts to head over to meet the new girl proper. Of course by the time he gets there, Keith has beaten him to the greeting. "Hi," he chimes in to them both.

	"Hi." Katima extends her greeting to him as well, recognizing him. Henry had pointed him out. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Katima turned, a little surprised to be addressed but a smile crossed her face and she greeted him warmly. "Hello, Keith. I am Katima." Handshaking, she had learned, was an Earth custom so she carefully extended her hand to his. "You are a friend of Henry's?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sonic_arrow 2010-03-28 03:34 am UTC (link)
	"Nice to meet'cha Katima." He spotted Josh, too. "Yo, dude. Wassup? I'm Keith." He could work two new people at once. "Yup, Henry is one of my best buds. The dude is awesome, but don't get me wrong- I'm the most awesome." He grinned at Katima, and thent to Josh. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Josh smiles and offers a hand to Katima when she finishes with Keith's. "Um. Nothing's up I guess," he says with a small chuckle. He goes quiet when Katima asks her question, interested in hearing the answer himself. He perks up when Keith is revealed to be a friend of Henry. "Nice to meet you both. I'm Josh."

	"How does one determine levels of awesome, Keith?" From anyone else it might seem sarcastic, but Katima meant the question completely. She also reached out a hand to rest on Josh's shoulder, squeezing gently. Avalon spoke of Josh and Henry spoke of Josh. He was, to her estimation, part of the 'family' she found herself in. "I am glad to meet you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well, for one- I'm sexy, smooth, rich, talented, skillful, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera. The works." He chuckled. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Josh is rather surprised when Katima just squeezes his shoulder. He wasn't expecting that at all. "I'm glad to finally meet you too after sensing you since you got here," he says, just a touch awkwardly. The healer blinks as Kieth goes on, tilting his head to the side again. "You forgot humble?" he tries to tease. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Katima pulls her hand back, sensing the awkward tinge to his voice. She really wishes she had pants now, for the pockets. "I will have to ask Henry if he agrees with your self-assessment, Keith." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sonic_arrow 2010-03-28 04:22 am UTC (link)
	Josh's comment got Keith to hold up his smile. "Humble may be the only good thing I don't have!" He turned to Katima. "Henry would agree, of course! But enough about me. Let's talk about you two." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	healingbug 2010-03-28 04:28 am UTC (link)
	Josh glances at Katima and offers a small smile. "You wanna talk about us?" he asks, glancing to Katima again. "Umm. What do ya wanna know?" (Reply to this)(Parent)

	The outfit catches Petra's eye, and she moves in to greet the new face. "Hey, nice threads." She grins, extending a hand. "Petra Gardner." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	compassionate 2010-03-28 05:13 pm UTC (link)
	"Hi." Katima turns briefly from the boy and smiles at Petra, extending a hand. "Katima Sers. Indigo Katima." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	gal_gardner 2010-03-28 05:32 pm UTC (link)
	"Charmed." She eyes her markings as well. "Skin-tone I'm guessing off-world, but what's with the ink job?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	compassionate 2010-03-28 05:37 pm UTC (link)
	Katima frowned briefly and ran her fingertips over her markings. "These are the symbols of my Tribe. All Indigo Lanterns have them, though given our varied nature not all have them on their face. Are they unusual here?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	gal_gardner 2010-03-28 05:47 pm UTC (link)
	Petra grins. "I think they're awesome." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sonic_arrow 2010-03-28 09:47 pm UTC (link)
	"How rude, Slurpee. Now you ignore the men?" Keith couldn't help but crack a smile when he said it. When that was said and done, he enveloped his attention around Josh and Katima again. "Yeah, Josh, my man. I want to know what you two plan to do 'round here. Join the YJLA, mayhaps?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	healingbug 2010-03-28 10:27 pm UTC (link)
	Josh smiles slightly when he senses Petra and offers a wave. The healer then nods. "Well I don't know about Katima but I'm certainly hoping to join the team. Henry's gonna help me out. I wanna help people and make up for what my family's done." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	compassionate 2010-03-28 10:29 pm UTC (link)
	Katima relaxes and smiles. She recognizes the compliment and it puts her at ease. Maybe being pantsless isn't such a curse if people overlook it. She decides Henry's friends are nice. It's a good moment. "As I don't know how long I will be on Earth, but I am guessing it will be a long time, I hope I can join the team. If not, I will help in any way I can."

	"I've been thinking about joining myself. Daddy'll be thrilled, but I'll just have to deal with that." She laughs. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sonic_arrow 2010-03-28 11:05 pm UTC (link)
	"Cool. Cool. Well, I'll see what I can do. Dunno what your family did, though, Josh. But if it was really bad, ya' don't seem like you could ever be like them." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	healingbug 2010-03-28 11:17 pm UTC (link)
	"Ask Jai about Cicada and you'll know," Josh tells Keith quietly. He then smiles. "Thanks, dude," he says. The healer's attention then turns to the girls for a moment. "You guys are gonna join too? That's cool." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	compassionate 2010-03-28 11:19 pm UTC (link)
	"I just want to be helpful to everyone since everyone is being very welcoming to me and overlooking my obvious...difference." She smiles and takes a sip of her soda. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
