....was going to go pharmacy after that But I didn't feel an addition 200+ grand in debt was worth it for the amount of hoops you have to leap through.
Also Never know what's going to pop up when or where. You got dis
Edit: lol looking forward to nick doing something that will frazzle Damon XD
Haha I just recently learned that I've been accepted for engineering, and am currently sorting out accommodation. Nice distraction in the midst of mid year exams x'D
Ay, I've been thinking of creating another character... A girl, in this case. Would this still be okay at this point? :3

Photography!! I'd love to take a few classes on that. Hm, yeah, I agree.
Aw, someone believes in me, bless.
xD oh, Nick will. He's good at... ruffling a few feathers (he is making this joke so be prepared)

xD oh god. I believe in you!!
Funny, because I'm working on a second character right now, so yes, it's perfectly fine.
Woot woot. I'm thinking of someone shy, since we have a lot of confident/broody/loud (coughcopencough) I usually pair her with water powers, but since Copen has that going on, I'm considering super speed. Would she be allowed to be, say, a niece of Quicksilver? Or maybe a lost love child for the angst when she's wondering about her real father...
@Winter Kitten Garret speaks Afrikaans??? :O 10/10 Ek kan n bietjie Afrikaans praat and I'm half Afrikaans... It's such a random language, why did you pick it? x'D

Post it up and we'll rip it apart assess it. xD I was actually wondering if someone would do super speed and mention Quicksilver, tbh lol.
@Chicogal ....I used the avengers quick silver actor for a facial description *cough* Iron man is awesome (I have been compared personality wise to him...also lucifer....I get compared to the devil and a narcissist...don't know how to feel)
Black Panther tho. Diplomatic immunity for the win woo Also love quick silver. Martian man hunter and flash are also faves of mine :D

WOW! So you can assist me whenever I try my had at Afrikaans for Garret. I'm not actually asking you. XD I don't wanna burden you with that task; I also have no clue what you JUST SAID BUT IT LOOKS AMAZING
Also, I picked Afrikaans because I love the languages that people don't often see mentioned. I see Russian, German, French, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, and any kind of Chinese all the time. Like, people using them for characters or languages or things like that. I never see things like Romanian or Afrikaans or Tagalog every mentioned and I think it's nice for people to be exposed to the beauty of all languages, even if I can't speak a lick of 'em.
Man, you guys and your awesome heroes and I'm over here like, "Hi, my favorite superheroes are Steve Rogers, Bucky Barnes, Natasha Romanoff, and Carol Danvers. :D" (but i'm also a huge fan of Clint, Sam, Miles Morales, Ryan Reyno--I mean Deadpool. Shit and Wolverine... and Wanda. And Wiccan. And Hulkling. *Nervous sweating* I have too many. OMG)
Oh no, the Quicksilver I love is the X-Men version. He is like, perfect comic relief. So no worries there. Also, did you mean Zulu/isiZulu? x'D@BlackPanther
@Winter Kitten All I said was that I can speak a bit of Afrikaans - I took it up to IGCSE Second Language level. I'm not fluent, but I can definitely help you out with some stuff! Also maybe my new charrie should speak it???? Maybe her mother was an expat...
I also love myself a smexy Bucky and a smexy Wolverine. ;) X-Men Quicksilver is so cute though. Adorable.
Also, I don't see the lyric, despite the fact that I also like that song... D: EDIT: Oh right, my title lol.
@Chicogal Honestly live both versions XD all the quick silver love ....and I have no idea The language the Zulu people speak. ...I am terrible with spelling languages especially on my phone >.>
I've noticed a theme...speedsters have a tendency to be a comic relief or else the hero team would be too serious and probably end up killing each other. Woo speedsters!
Lol. Don't worry about it. It's one of the bigger national languages here, which is why I noticed. xP My character isn't really comic relief, but she's sort of the sweet, quiet one of the group. I can see her trying to calm down Damon and getting on with missions while others are arguing...
Country of origin: United States of America (New York)
Basic appearance: Rain has long, curly brown hair to her waist and bangs swept to the side. Her eyes are a light, piercing blue color and she stands at 5,3". She’s quite slim and petite, suiting to her power. Her facial features are delicate and 'sweet' – much like a, ‘girl next door.’ Costume: She hasn’t really made a proper costume yet, but she prefers to wear black exercise leggings and a black t-shirt, along with goggles – she’d learned about bugs the hard way, and the leggings offer her freedom of movement.
Skills: ~ Unassuming. People tend to think that she’s not a threat, and she doesn’t exactly look like a superhero. She’s sort of a fan of Natasha, since she’s also on the short side and is often underestimated too (from the stories she’s read, anyway). It can be an advantage for infiltration and combat.
~ Perception. Rain tends to notice things other people might not when it comes to emotions and body language. She’s a good reader of how people are feeling, and although she’s often in the background, she tends to hear a lot more than those who always talk. This is a result of her being quite sensitive, and having a high EQ.
Powers: ~ Super speed. Rain can run really, really fast. Like, to the point where the world seems to almost stop around her. Her body is reinforced to stand the forces that super speed creates. That’s it, really. [Example: youtube.com/watch?v=1NnyVc8r2SM ]
Brief bio: Rain grew up in a single parent household with her mother, who was the daughter of South African expats. She was never told who her father was, and the most her mother would say was that it was too dangerous to stay with him – although he wasn’t a bad man. She has always wondered who he was.
She attended public school in New York, and gained her super speed at age 13. She didn’t use it for much, unsure and a little bit scared of what the authorities might do. When the Avengers came into the spotlight, she felt a little more accepted. However, that was also when her mother found out about her powers. For some reason, she freaked out and threw Rain out of the house for a few days. Eventually they reconciled, but their relationship was never the same.
Rain felt lost and alone, and wanted to do something with her powers. She contacted SHIELD through a long process, and after some tests, they decided to take her on for the team.
(For official use only)
Initial observation report: Super speed ability, similar to that of Quicksilver and the Flash. Experience has shown this ability to be extremely useful in the right hands. Subject is timid and will need encouragement as well as extensive physical training.
Training regimen/expertise: ~ Basic combat training. No experience. ~ Strength training. Subject can break walls at high speeds, but needs this for better combat skills. ~ Infiltration training.
Potential outlook: Potential for a very good de-escalator of hazardous situations and rescuing civilians in harm's way.
Best case scenario: Icon of safety for civilians. Disabler of enemies, infiltration.
Worst case scenario: Possibility of being too shy to be useful in combat. Relegated to saving civilians in the way of Avengers. Extreme unlikelihood of uncontrolled powers or villainous tendencies.
DNA tests showed paternal relation to [REDACTED].
I'm unsure over whether or not her hair should be silver. It could make it a little too obvious who her father is?
@Chicogal i did random research! quick silver runs at about mach 10 flash runs faster then speed of light hence being able to run himself out of existence or into the past.
@Winter Kitten What do you think of Rain speaking Afrikaans? Thought it might be fun to incorporate some of the languages we're all saying that they speak ;)
@Chicogal I think that'd be amazing! She can teach Garret more words and they can learn it together (unless she's already fluent and then he'll pester her to teach him). I think this is all amazing and hilarious. Cas and I are having Nick and Garret talk in French. The more application of foreign languages the better!!
(Not all the time though cause that's crazy. Aaah)
