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.

AJ arrives late, but he's not too concerned with that. He'd had to swim quite a long way, and then find the place, so there wasn't much he could do about it. The orange armor and sword may have stood out a bit too much, so he donned a grey shirt instead. Nothing too flashy. The sword he keeps though, just in case.

AJ was surprised to get an invitation at all, but it seemed that Henry wanted this new Justice League group to meet up and socialize. He wasn't so sure about the whole thing. He didn't really consider himself a hero, but he'd help out if they asked.

He sees Henry and waves, smiling just a little.

	"AJ!" Henry greets. "Good to see you, man! Glad you could come!" He goes to AJ and offers a hand. "Can I get you anything? Snacks? Drink?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	deep_sea_sword 2010-03-28 03:27 pm UTC (link)
	"Drink's fine." AJ says as he shakes Henry's hand. He realizes that there were a lot more people here than he expected, most he'd never met, but some familiar faces. "Are all these people joining the Justice League?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lantern_kid 2010-03-28 03:30 pm UTC (link)
	"Nah," Henry replies. "But..." He turns and points out a couple faces in the crowd. "That winged guy is Avalon... he's been assigned as my Blue Lantern partner, so I think adding him would be a good idea. And... that blond guy over there is Josh. I think he'd be a good addition, too." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	deep_sea_sword 2010-03-28 03:40 pm UTC (link)
	"I see." AJ says as he glances at Avalon and Josh. He found the wings a little weird at first, as he'd never met someone with those before, but he doesn't dwell on it. "So, what do they do?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Well, Avalon's a Blue Lantern. A lot of the same tricks I can do, but we both work better when we're in close proximity to each other. Josh is a healer. He saved my arm from rotting away when Black Hand got a hold of me. They're both fantastic guys."

A green hand floats through the air, delivering a cold can of Coke to AJ before it vanishes.

"The other people are from different teams or kids. Some of the Titans are here, for example."

	"A team medic certainly would come in handy." AJ replies as he nods and opens the Coke. He takes a sip and shivers a bit. Soft drink always felt a bit weird against his gills at first. "Hey, is Cait here? I keep meaning to ask if she'll show my around Atlantis and let me meet her dad." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lantern_kid 2010-03-28 04:18 pm UTC (link)
	"Yeah," Henry nods. "She's around. But hang on... Josh! Come here! I want you to meet someone!" He gestures to the blond healer. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Fresh from a chat with the new Indigo Lantern and Henry's archer friend, Josh is just about to go off in search of some food when he hears Henry calling for him again. The healer looks over and nods, approaching the Lantern with a smile. "What's up, Henry?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lantern_kid 2010-03-28 04:49 pm UTC (link)
	"Josh, this is AJ... Aquaknight. One of the JLA. AJ, this is Josh." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	healingbug 2010-03-28 05:03 pm UTC (link)
	Josh blinks and then smiles, offering a hand to AJ. "Hello. Nice to meet ya," he greets. "That's a cool codename," he adds. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	deep_sea_sword 2010-03-28 05:03 pm UTC (link)
	"Hello Josh." AJ greets him, offering his hand. "Henry says you saved his butt." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lantern_kid 2010-03-28 05:05 pm UTC (link)
	"No, just my arm." Henry gives Josh an almost imperceptible wink. "Make sure you meet Avalon, too, AJ." And then Henry's gone, heading off to play social butterfly host. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	healingbug 2010-03-28 05:09 pm UTC (link)
	Josh shakes the offered hand and chuckles. He goes bright red from the wink, eyes wide. A little 'eep' escapes the healer and he watches the Lantern walk off. Attention returns to AJ and the healer calms down. He takes a deep breath and smiles again. "So you're on the JLA too? How big is the team?" he asks curiously. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	deep_sea_sword 2010-03-28 06:23 pm UTC (link)
	AJ shrugs and scratches the back of his head. "Well, kind of. I help out when they ask me to, and they need an ocean dweller on the team, I suppose. There's me and Henry, then there's Corrina, Jai and Jonathan. We've got a Batman too, and probably a few more I'm missing. So, I'd say it's a pretty big team." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	healingbug 2010-03-28 06:27 pm UTC (link)
	Josh smiles and nods. "Sounds like a pretty big team," he replies. "How long have you been with them?" he's curious. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	deep_sea_sword 2010-03-28 06:31 pm UTC (link)
	"Mmm, hard to tell." AJ puts a hand to his chin and thinks. "I don't think I ever officially joined, but you could say I've been with them since around the beginning. I'm guessing you're pretty new then?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	healingbug 2010-03-28 06:37 pm UTC (link)
	Josh nods. "That's cool. Why not officially join though?" he asks. The healer then smiles sheepishly. "Well I'm not a member yet. Henry's introducing me and Avalon to everyone so they can get to know us and then decide on our joining. But I am pretty new to this whole superhero thing." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	deep_sea_sword 2010-03-28 08:05 pm UTC (link)
	"I may have powers that regular folks don't, but I'm not really a hero. I just sort of stumbled into the whole hero business." AJ answers. "So I'm not too crazy about it as some might be." AJ gives a lopsided smirk and chugs more Coke. "Don't worry, I'm sure you'll do fine." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	healingbug 2010-03-28 08:18 pm UTC (link)
	"You're new too?" Josh is surprised by this. He honestly didn't expect to find anyone among these kids who grew up around superheroes that was even remotely as new as him. "Thanks," he says. "So what kind of powers do you have?" he asks curiously. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	deep_sea_sword 2010-03-28 08:54 pm UTC (link)
	"Well, I'm similar to an Atlantean, so I can breath underwater and command sea life." AJ answers. "Not the best powers, I know, but I'm a lot stronger and more durable than most other humans, with a few other perks like enhanced senses. I've got Aquaman's powers more or less." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	healingbug 2010-03-28 09:00 pm UTC (link)
	Josh blinks a few times and then grins. "I think they're pretty cool powers," he remarks. "Not much one for the water myself," he admits. "Can't swim." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	deep_sea_sword 2010-03-28 10:35 pm UTC (link)
	AJ is silent for a moment as he process this information. It doesn't quite compute. "Wait, hold you, you can't swim?" AJ examines Josh. He seemed perfectly healthy. "Why not? You look perfectly fine." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	healingbug 2010-03-28 10:43 pm UTC (link)
	Josh blinks. "I never learned," he admits. "I sink like a rock." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	deep_sea_sword 2010-03-28 10:54 pm UTC (link)
	AJ finally processes the idea that not everyone instictively knows how to swim at birth like he did. He rubs his temple and looks back at Josh. "Okay, as soon as we can, I'm going to teach you how." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
