RPG Challenge - Chris
Ze Rules:

1. Truth or Dare: Post a scene idea as a dare. It can be in-canon, or it can be AU. You can challenge any of mine with any of yours. I can take the dare, or turn it down, by offering an honest in character answer to any question you want to ask. If I take the dare, you can set up the scene and we'll play through it.

2. Putting the 'R' in RP: So most of the time, rp comes down to casual social or big mod-run plots. This is neither, so let's spice it up. Your dare-scene challenge must involve either A. gratuitous violence, B. gratuitous nudity (I'm willing to play out sex scenes if they make sense, or hint at them) C. gratuitous crack. - because these aren't going through moderation, they can't really change anything, no new powers, no big item acquisitions, but gratuitous hero battles or villain of the week-ish stuff should be okay. Multiple choices from A, B and C are also possible.

3. Pay it Forward: As usual, if you take this challenge and post a scene idea, you also need to put this up in one of your journals, and offer some or all of yours up for scene challenges. Now the tricky part - if I take a dare, I will temp at least one of the NPCs needed, if any are. I will not require you to NPC for me, no. Instead, you must temp at least one NPC in any dares you take.
And, why yes, this is an effort to get people to temp occasional npcs for others in order to encourage RP. You have an easy out in any scenes you're truly not comfortable with - you can always take 'truth', and I may, not every scene will fit my characters or my fancy... but the idea is still to encourage rp, get people doing scenes and playing with characters, whether AU or our canon, and doing the little things to help get scenes going.

My characters potentially up for this:

Will Freeman/Shazam
Michael Choi/Firestorm
Jonathan McIntyre/The Machinist (superhero name pending)
Bob Grayson/Marvel Boy-The Uranian

	Ash gives him a shy uncertain look. Then smiles a little just for him. "It's starting to get better. It's not all doom and gloom you know." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Doom and gloom is strictly a Batman kind of outlook. Better is always goo-" Michael is interrupted by the arriving food. "Well, nice timing." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Yeah."

She smiles then looks back at Michael.

"I don't know.... Batman is scary. He's very much "I am the terror that laps in the night!' It's... You know. Freaky. Like he could be looming and we'd never know." She says this in such a way it should jut look like to an outsider like they're just chatting. But the way Ash is looking at Michael? She's joking. Just a little, Batman does rattle her.

	"Du-nun," Michael says in response before chuckling. "On no! The tiny leathery thing that eats insects is after me!" Michael is joking, too. he has no trouble with bats. The Bat was a different story. "So, what team were you with again? The Titans East? Don't they have a member of the Batfolk there?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	seasiren 2011-07-15 02:11 am UTC (link)
	"Yeah. Titans Together," Ash said looking a little brighter. She loved her team. "Yes. We have Robin. She's pretty amazing. The only person I know who can stealth past the people with super senses unaided by powers." Ash has always been impressed by Robin. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"The whole of that damn clan can do that. He once did that to Jon and I. Jon. Super-freaking-boy." Michael chuckled again at that.

"I get me missing him, because with the powers I didn't get any increased senses besides the molecular vision, and even that doesn't work on anything carbon so it doesn't work on people. But Jon? The guy who can hear a car crash two cities away?"

	"Maybe they have a bond with a Bat totem?" She was just guessing but it seemed possible. They are scary enough to have that going for them too. "It could also be Jon wasn't paying enough attention." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	masterofmatter 2011-07-15 03:00 am UTC (link)
	"I don't think so. I think they have some tech to help them out, but beyond that its all skill," Michael said just before he took a bite out of his gooey burrito. "And I wouldn't be too surprised if Jon was. Hell, he probably could have been listening for a car crash and missed Bats." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	seasiren 2011-07-15 03:13 am UTC (link)
	"Maybe Batman knows when no one is looking," Ash ponders outloud. Then tries some of her food and just brightens. Then she attacks it like a fiend. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	masterofmatter 2011-07-15 03:24 am UTC (link)
	"Well, someone likes Mexican food. I'll be sure to remember for next time." And then Michael regrets the words coming out of his mouth. That was really presumptuous. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	seasiren 2011-07-15 03:25 am UTC (link)
	Ash... just blinked up at him. Like what he just said was in Greek. "You mean... you'd like to try this again?" She looks pleasantly surprised by that. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	masterofmatter 2011-07-15 03:29 am UTC (link)
	Okay, Michael. Play cool, play cool. "Yeah. I would." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	seasiren 2011-07-15 03:42 am UTC (link)
	And Michael gets a shy smile. "I'd like that a great deal." She didn't say no Michael. And she is smiling. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	masterofmatter 2011-07-15 03:50 am UTC (link)
	"Great. For right now though, enjoy the food." Michael goes back to his dish (this enchilada sauce was great. He'd have to get it again. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	seasiren 2011-07-15 03:55 am UTC (link)
	She just smiled then attacked her food again. She had been very hungry and couldn't help but enjoy the fact nothing on her plate would actually bother her. Just satisfy her. That was not something she would say out loud, for the record. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	masterofmatter 2011-07-15 04:13 am UTC (link)
	Once dinner was finished, Michael was...well he was kind of confused. Where did it go from here? I mean, they could go home, he could drop her off... Michael was a little confused. "Ash, how did you get to the museum?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	seasiren 2011-07-15 04:18 am UTC (link)
	"Magic. I used a translocation spell," she informed him as if that was the most obvious answer. "You saw me use magic before." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	masterofmatter 2011-07-15 04:25 am UTC (link)
	"I know. I just didn't see it for myself. Just you looking at the stuff at the museum. I was just wondering. It's getting kind of late and I don't want you to get in trouble for it," (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	seasiren 2011-07-15 04:30 am UTC (link)
	She gives him a shy smile. "You could come with me. Make sure I get back safely, I mean." She's trying to flirt a little. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	masterofmatter 2011-07-15 04:33 am UTC (link)
	"I would certainly appreciate it, Ash," Michael said before he went to pay the check. When he came back, he offered his hand and motioned to the door. "Whenever you're ready to go." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	seasiren 2011-07-15 04:35 am UTC (link)
	Oh yeah she's a goner. The way he says that has her stomach flip flop in a good way. She takes his hand as she stands up. "I'm ready." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	masterofmatter 2011-07-15 06:26 pm UTC (link)
	Michael leads the way out, the cool air blowing as the night asserts its hold on the city. And the whole while he's thinking of just how damn happy he was at how smooth this all went. "So, I suppose this is good night, then. When do you think I could see you again?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Ash could feel a slight chill from the night air. But it wasn't so bad since it was the summer.

"Yeah," she agreed. Then blinked up at him. "Next week at some point. I could give you my number so we could work it out." She checks to see if she has any paper to do that. Then shakes her head and magics up a dark blue card with her number written in bold gold colored print.

	masterofmatter 2011-07-15 11:40 pm UTC (link)
	Okay, this is either going to be really slick or really dumb. Luck had been with Michael the whole night so Michael bet again that it would work. When he took the card, his hand slipped it back and grabbed the hand with gentleness. He leaned down, turned the hand over, and gave it a small little kiss. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	seasiren 2011-07-15 11:44 pm UTC (link)
	Ash blinked slowly at him. Then found herself blushing and smiling. Sure it wasn't the first time someone had tried to wow her that way. But this was the first time it had worked. "I'll look forward to that phone call." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
