Ding Dong!
There was somebody waiting to be let in. She stood with her hands on her hips and one foot stepping out. Akilah had come to join the Avengers, since she didn't feel like she had any reason to stay at home in Wakanda any longer.

	And the door is opened by Charlie, shirtless and in a pair of shorts, a towel slung over his shoulders, as he'd been heading to his room to shower after a workout. "Why hello there," he said with a smirk, "Can I help you with something?" (Reply to this)(Thread)

	She smirked, too. "Yes, there is. I wish to be a member of the Avengers, like my father was before me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"And your Dad is...Black Panther?" He raised an eyebrow. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Charlie held up his hands in self-defense. "No, not at all! You could be a dimensionally displaced kid of Uncle Tony's for all I know. I'm just guessing. You kinda look like him too." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She was satisfiend with his answer, at least. And she smiled to break the tension. "Yes, I am the daughter of the Black Panther and Storm. And who are you?" She gave him one look over, but couldn't place his lineage. Akilah wasn't very familiar with the appearances and children of the many superheros out there. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	borntolead 2010-01-26 02:25 am UTC (link)
	"Charles Steven Rogers," he said, giving her his full name. The last name should speak for itself. "Call me Charlie." Charlie stepped aside, gesturing for her to come in. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She took note of his last name, and glided by Charlie and into the mansion. She looked around and nodded at each corner of the foyer, as if she had to approve of the decor herself. "Alright, Charlie." She looked back at him. "I see you've just finished working out. Would you tell me where the gym is?" It was no lie when Akilah said she liked to workout.

	borntolead 2010-01-26 02:43 am UTC (link)
	"Gym is down the hall and to the right," he said with a grin, "It's pretty well equipped. I haven't had a bad training session yet." His grin widened. "I could give you a tour, if you'd like." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aerosmithette 2010-01-26 02:44 am UTC (link)
	She rubbed her neck and half-smiled as she replied, "That would be a pleasure, Charlie." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	borntolead 2010-01-26 02:48 am UTC (link)
	"Just let me grab a shirt and we can go," he said, "I'll be back in a minute." A couple of minutes later, Charlie's back in the lobby, with in a fresh change of clothes. "Now before we get started...mind telling me your name, Panther-Girl?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aerosmithette 2010-01-26 02:54 am UTC (link)
	He earned another smirk from her. "My name is Akilah Munroe, Warrior Princess of Wakanda." She neglected mentioning her status as a white mage, but only because it was not revelent as a title or to the conversation. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	borntolead 2010-01-26 02:57 am UTC (link)
	"It's a pleasure to meet Your Highness," he said with a small bow of his head. ""Now if you'll just follow me....your tour of Avengers Mansion awaits." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Perhaps slightly more eye catching in the rec room is its resident. Iason is between trips right now, and scanning for any sign of the Deviants becoming active, or other major events.
At the moment he's doing so by hovering a couple feet off the ground a few feet from the TV, taking in picture-in-picture news to watch CNN and the local news simultaneously.

At the sound of approach, he glances over. "Hello Charlie. Who is your companion? Her accent sounds central African, if I'm guessing correctly."

Akilah's gaze fixed onto Iason, and she tensed. She was, again, unfamiliar with those actually on the Avengers team, and a floating man in the middle of the recreation room didn't allow her to be casual. Although she became a little less tense when he spoke with familiarity to Charlie.

"My name is Akilah Munroe."

She wasn't going to wait for Charlie to introduce her.

	He nods, considering the name before responding in somewhat slow, stiff Swahili. "I am guessing from my research then, that would make you the Princess of Wakanda?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aerosmithette 2010-01-26 10:14 pm UTC (link)
	She was caught by surprise with his transition into Swahili, but she smiled and replied in the language, "Yes. I am the Princess of Wakanda. And who are you?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cosmic_son 2010-01-26 10:17 pm UTC (link)
	"I apologize, have not had lots of chances to use Wakanda's native tongues. Do not believe they have changed to French like their neighbors? Swahili is... not the best, hope it is ok. Glad for chances to practice." he explains before continuing. "I am Iason, son of Ikaris of the Eternals and Kismet." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aerosmithette 2010-01-26 11:01 pm UTC (link)
	"Do not worry about it. No, French has not become a used language in Wakanda. And, it is nice to meet you, Iason." She wasn't tense anymore, and was enjoying speaking in her native tongue. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	borntolead 2010-01-26 11:03 pm UTC (link)
	"Umm....I don't mean to be rude but..." a confused look rested on Charlie's face, "If you don't mind, can we switch back to English, please?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cosmic_son 2010-01-26 11:06 pm UTC (link)
	"Not at all, Charlie. I was just saying hello and introducing myself, and taking the opportunity to test my Swahili with a native speaker. Miss Munroe, I hope at some point you would not be averse to helping me practice further? I'm afraid my non-Mediterranean Earthen languages are not very good." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	borntolead 2010-01-26 11:08 pm UTC (link)
	"I probably should invest in learning a couple of other languages," Charlie said with a bit of a smirk, "I only took Spainish in high school, and the various Russian curses that I picked up from Anya." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aerosmithette 2010-01-26 11:12 pm UTC (link)
	"Very well, Charlie. And of course, Iason. I would appreciate the chance to speak it more often, myself." She paused. "I could cast a translation spell on you whenever needed, Charlie. It allows you to traslate the language both incoming and outgoing." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

He's about to ask Charlie whether its European or Mexican Spanish, and pauses. The distinction would probably be lost there.
"Thank you Miss Munroe. Are you planning to stay a while? It might give me a chance to try some of the Wakandan dishes in Jarvis' cookbooks. They don't get made very often these days, but I've been looking for an excuse to make a couple of them."
