Olympic Level Action
The Olympics, as everyone knew, were being held in Canada this year.  Canada took this very seriously.  Canada took everything that put it on the international stage seriously, which meant that they were taking security for the Olympics very seriously.  Which meant using their very own super-hero team.  Which meant, of course, Alpha Flight.

Fortunately, it had been quiet so far and with nothing that could not be handled by regular security had happened.

Marrina was just glad there was no Atlantean team.  It left her free to root for Canada.  They'd done well, but but nearly as well as she'd like.

She tapped her communicator.  "This is Marrina, checking in at the hockey rink.  No problems here."

//It's a pleasure, ma'am. Sir,// Alex said. There would have been a handshake, but he didn't exactly have hands.

Introductions done, Kara smiles warmly again. "Now, let's get over to those tables. Simon, what have you got for us." She smirks. "And it had better be good after all the skiing medals the Swiss have stolen from us."

Simon holds a basket.
"Meat pies, slies of cheese, apples, some very small cheese-and-vegetable quiches, and I baked some magenbrot. So you may not complain about the Swiss, Kara."

And off they go to sit.

"So how old are you, Alex?" Kara asks cheerfully.

//Seventeen ma'am,// he answered. //The food smells delicious, sir. Mel takes pity on me and cooks for me.// Alex would have preferred to be an orangutan to eat, but there would be problems.

Mel smiles sheepishly. "I'm happy to," she mutters, although it's a lot less quiet than her usual muttering.

And she'll help her parents take everything out.

"I've missed your magenbrot, Dad. I don't do anything that good," she says, although it's met with a pleasantly disbelieving expression.

"Yes, much as I whine about the skiing. It's been fantastic. Have you been having fun? Even if it's sort of a professional engagement."

//Yes ma'am. I usually don't get to go to many public events, so this is a real treat. Though I do wish I could take a different form. The temperature isn't exactly compatible with this form.//

Kara frowns. "I can see your point. Well, right now we're in the park. Could you be more comfortable as a dog or something? No one would cause a fuss in the park."

"They're all fine, sweetie."

And eating continues.

"So which form do you tend to like best, Alex?"

//Beagle I guess. I seem to spend the most time that form and people don't have strong reactions to it. Otherwise I usually go with what is appropriate for the time and situation.//
