Test scene - Michael Choi
The Titans Tower was an example of the odd post-modern architecture that the younger generation of heroes seemed to love. Unlike the JSA Brownstone, a traditional art deco brownstone mansion, and the Hall of Justice, a Victorian era Greek Revival throwback, the Titans Tower was very firmly rooted in the post-modern love of odd angled buildings.

It was a stupid looking waste of concrete and steel, if you were to ask Michael. Post-modernism could be nice, with architects like Philip Johnson rejecting the box-like buildings of before. But the Titans Tower was just like that, but in a T symbol and designed with odd supports in the bottom. it was a building Michael wouldn't normally be interested in. But he was in San Fransisco for the day, and he needed to know where he could go to address his situation. So there he was, walking into that abominable building.

Cait was on her way out the front door when she saw someone approaching. There was a moment when she thought about grabbing some water, but she waited to see if he was friend or foe.

"Hi," she said. "Can I help you?"

"I assume this building is equipped to assist people with powers. because I recently came into some," Michael said, his tone no-nonsense

"I suppose it is," Cait said with a small smile. "The Teen Titans live here. I'm Cait Curry, Aquagirl."

Her brow rose. "What kind of powers?"

"Matter manipulation. I have to be tied into the Matrix first, though. One second."

Mike began tapping into the Firestorm Matrix, changing in front of Aquagirl with little fanfare.

Cait automatically grabbed some water and swirled it around her. It took her a moment for her to relax, but the water continued to move around her. "Interesting. I didn't get your name."

"Michael...uh, and my 'hero' name is Firestorm," Michael says, feeling odd at how he looks like a giant glowing orange.

Cait smiled. "Nice to meet you. If you want to extinguish the flames, you can come in and we can talk."

"Okay, I'll do that, Michael says, allowing the Matrix to disengage and turn him back to normal.

"Who designed this building?"

"Don't know. It was built way before my time," Cait said as she motioned for him to enter. "But it's home."

"No wonder," Michael says under his breath as he follows Cait in. He looks around at the various bric-a-brac that is scattered across the hall.

"It's better than Atlantis no matter what shape it's in or what it looks like," Cait said with a half-grumble. "Sorry."

"So what can we do for you? Do you need help with control or are you looking to join the team?"

"I don't know, really. I came into my powers by freak accident. I know the previous Firestorms had ties to the Justice League, so i guess putting me in touch with them is as good as any," Michael said non-nonchalantly, not even looking at Cait as he looked around, noting many issue areas.

"You have some structure cracks. they're small and probably pass code, but it's bugging me. I'll fix it for you." Michael says as he walks towards one of the walls.

"Well we can help or we can put you in touch with the Justice League. It's up to you."

Cait blinked. "Uh, okay I guess."

Michael again powers up, aiming for small areas up top, near the tops of the various archways in the room. As Cait watches, small, almost unnoticeable cracks are filled.

"Luckily, the walls are easy. Some stainless steel for support in the building, gypsum for the facade, and a little silicate stone to finish it off," Michael says, the orange beams filling the cracks with said materials.

"A fix courtesy of Ivy Town Polytechnic."

Cait smiled. "Thanks. We're not the best on upkeep. What do we owe you?" she joked.

"Nothing. I know my way around architecture. If I'm going to join any group or be a hero in any way, I have to show my worth, right?" Michael responded, completely serious.

"Really? I would have thought otherwise." Michael said as he moved away, looking at the various vertical supports in the room.

Now Michael is rather uncomfortable for not knowing more about superheroes.

"I'm...sorry to hear that. I've stayed isolated from my uncles line of work, so I have no idea who anyone is beyond the Atom, Superman, batman, and now the guy who came before me."
