Test Scene
Indigo. The color of compassion. It may have been her charge, but Katima Sers of Korugar wasn't just a wielder of the Indigo Light. She was a teenager and like most teenagers, she valued two things pretty much above all others in her free time: pizza and hanging out. So it was with both in mind when she landed feet on Henry's doorstep, a piping hot pepperoni pie from DiAngelo's in one hand, the other banging on the door.
Besides...offering pizza to a Green Lantern was compassionate, right? Especially a cute one.

	"Well..." She blushes a little, rose cheeks a touch more crimson as she looks away a little. "I'm not particularly special..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Don't give me that," he replies. "I get enough of that from Josh, and he saved my life as his introduction. You've got an Indigo ring and staff. That's pretty special right there." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Perhaps." She sits quietly for a long moment, turning so that she's facing him, all pretense of watching the movie abandoned. "You're special, too." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

The movie is paused, still in the opening credits with a woman running, pursued by a zombie.

Henry looks up at her from where he's lying. "Most of the time, I'd laugh it off and say, 'I know.' But... I grew up all around superheroes, you know? Any of my friends outside of school, the kids of my dad's friends... they were all superpowered. And I was just some kid rescued from a baby-smuggling organization." He shakes his head. "I've tried so hard to stand out, just so I can... fit in, I guess." He smiles at her. "It's hard to grow up normal when everyone else around you is exceptional."

	Katima smiles softly and rests a hand against his cheek. "It's that you are Henry Jordan, a child saved by love, that makes you exceptional. You know what it is to see the world with seemingly-ordinary eyes and to appreciate the grandness and the smallest details. You feel." She takes his hand and places it over her heart. "You feel. I can feel it in here." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He grasps her hand and looks up at her, wordlessly, just examining her beautiful face. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She studies his eyes for long moments, tangling her fingers with his, closing their hands together. "You feel," she whispers, eyes closing. Her heart is racing. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He leans forward, slowly, still studying her eyes, hands still grasped in hers. There's nothing he can say that won't seem trite. There's nothing he can say at all. So he leans in to gently place a kiss on her lips. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He doesn't need words. He opened himself up to her and she can feel all she needs to know, that little bit of depth he chose to reveal. His lips touch hers and she kisses him in return, softly, her hand still folded in his even as she nestles deeper into his half-embrace. (Reply to this)(Parent)
