Comet had returned to sipping drink and staring into the crowd, he was almost getting ready to leave, as he had managed to piss off one of the big guys a few moments after getting there. No matter how worth it it was, it was going to be harder to make friends with that big guy in the other corner, not that he stood much of a chance of making friends in the first place.
He sighed and took another sip. If only he had been born a nice guy, that would have been grand, not that he needed friends, who did? Screw them, screw them all-
Oh hey look, it's Spectrum, damn he's cool, if only I could see the man underneath, I bet he's handsome, so handsome. Comet's eyes darted over the suited-up superhero, he had only seen him once before, but immediately he had been struck by the dazzling beauty of his power. The thrill that he got just from watching was enough to put any run to shame.
He had to talk to him, but what would he say? Compliment his costume? Nah, dudes didn't care about their clothes, but there was literally nothing else to talk about.
He nervously poked his fingers together as he thought, staring intently at the armored hero. Then his eyes narrowed.
Wait a minute... where's he going? He wondered silently as Spectrum continued through the room towards... something lost in the crowd. He placed down his drink and slunk through the mass of bodies in an attempt to see, wiping a bit of sweat from his forehead and calming himself with a few deep breaths. He had to be beet red, he had barely any memory of the last time he and Spectrum had met, and he had almost entirely forgotten about him before today. It seemed childish, like some kid following around an adult due to some puppy-love, but this felt like more than that, he was still dealing with the fact that he wasn't...
It was Dragon Heart.
It was Dragon Heart and Comet was fuming.
He shook in... it wasn't so much rage as dawning comprehension. Spectrum was into Dragon Heart, not that Comet exactly blamed him, but it was less about the looks in his eyes, sure Dragon Heart had those, but he was too arrogant, he was fake-nice, quick to anger at everything, and he was oh so
boring.
Comet had to do something, but what? He couldn't approach Dragon Heart, not after what he had done earlier, and he still wasn't ready to speak to Spectrum. He had to come up with something... but there was nothing. He had to talk to Spectrum, he stood no chance against Dragon Heart unless he did. He had to get ready.
He appeared next to a very clearly startled Chief Thomas, and spoke very quickly.
"I'vegottogogetsomethingI'llbebackokaybye!" he then shot off before Thomas could even see who it was.
"What the he-"
"I'm back, thanks for waiting on me, now, I've got a boy to charm."
He shot towards the armored man, rose in mouth. He slid in front of him, giving a coy smile, which quickly faded into a nervous look as he realized just how close he was to Spectrum. He pulled the rose out of his mouth and stood a moment, knees knocked, before offering it with a shaky hand.
"H-here."
As soon as this is done I'm going to go to the top of this building and jump off five times.@Regitnui
