La Vida: Wayward House > Lobby

It had been a busy Friday but now families were on their way home as the sun was setting. The ever-present smog coming from the oil refinery could be seen in the air, all in all it was peaceful. However, this did not bring comfort to the guardians of La Vida. There was an uneasy tension as it was only a matter of time before this peace was shattered. It was Friday night after all and it seemed to be that was enough to make people go crazy.

Within the seemingly abandoned hotel was a house of madness, the main lobby had been fully restored and furnished, however, there were tables of unfinished devices that was made from old junk. On the walls were schematics from past works and up coming projects, in the center of the room was an old over-head projector without the over head part and instead of projecting light on to a wall it was projecting a hologram of La Vida.

Matthew, aka Tech, is standing at one of the tables fiddling with a mechanism, his hands are sparking as he works with out tools. Most of the teens work would be impossible if it weren’t for his technokinesis. Matt’s hands stop moving and his face brightens, “It’s done!” he says ecstatically.

“That’s great and just on time, our guests will be here soon,” a girl calls out from behind. Athena, aka Athena, steps out of the kitchen with a tray of sandwiches and cookies and sets them down on a table Matt was forced to clear. Another tray of drinks floats out behind her and is set down next to the food, the girl then reaches for the plates still in the kitchen and they too began to move toward her table.

“Since when do you bake?” Matt questions eyeing the cookies suspiciously.

“Since were having guest,” she says with a smile.

Matt frowns and begins toying with the gadget in his hands, “I know I agreed to let in people but now I don’t know.” The teen puts the device over his wrist then another of the same over his other wrist, Matt turns his palms up and a black metal begins to crawl out of the cuff and it envelops his hands and arms. “I’m connecting to the nanites and have full control,” he says flexing his fingers.

“If we’re going to help this city we can’t do it alone, not just us two,” Athena says remembering her absent friend. “Anyways, what about the fuel cell, is it interfacing with the pulse thrusters?”

Matt stretches out his arm and spreads his fingers as a blue energy shoots from his gloved hand, “yep, now I need to test flight capabilities.” He says closing his fist and dispersing the energy harmlessly. Athena walks over to the younger teen and places a hand on his shoulder and looks over his work proudly. “Nice, I’ll help you set up a staging area later but for now you need to check the warding fields and make sure our guests do not get turned away.

The nanites retract from Matt’s arms and hands back into the cuffs, “Yeah yeah, they are good to go,” the teen says with a familiar attitude.

It was two weeks ago that the teens had started recruiting other heroes but only after a month of vetting making sure they were gathering the right sort of people. They need not be meta or have super powers, just the type of people who could put others before themselves and want to see good change to La Vida.

ok IC is up...I think, I never used the zeroth thing before hopefully it can be seen. All hero characters are welcomed to Wayward House (Wayward Manner sounds better)just mention that either Tech or Athena gave you an invite and a button/pin to get into the House, just walk in whenever your ready for introductions. In about a week or so we'll start the the first story and all new heroes will need to be invited into the house after that happens.

@Virani looks good to me, I like the in character bio. And Katarina is not the team up kinda girl, though, if he makes himself useful she could learn to play nice for a little while.

San Francisco: Titan's Tower

Raven focused her mind and was only concentrating on her breathing and had finally centered herself when she heard wet feet slapping against the concreate roof of Titan Tower. The teen opened an eye and watch the red clad teen in sunglasses move to the ground to dry off. She didn’t mind him and was about to begin her mediation, however, he began to speak to break the silence. Raven made a mental note, trying to be unnoticeable makes you noticeable.

It was a long moment before Raven, is this an insult, or an attempt at humor? She allowed herself to feel the other teens emotions, she could feel guilt, jealousy, happiness, and hopefulness. The empath, however, did not feel spite and decided he was trying to be humorous.

“No, I do not have an alias, for I do not have a secret identity to protect. My name is Raven, though, I guess I should make an identity to protect, I will have to think about it.” Raven said giving no emotion in her voice. She studied him as her violet eyes moved about the teen's body, he was fit and looked as if he had been in several fights, in all honesty he was quite handsome. “So what name do you give yourself, the Red…” her eyes went to the quiver on his back then continued. “Arrow, or maybe it is the Crimson Boy?” This time a smile did escape her at least for a moment.

Before the crimson archer could reply another boy dressed in red stepped out of the elevator and she turned her focus, it was like he was the epicenter of an emotion bomb. She couldn’t help but think of a child jumping and wave for its mother’s attention. The empath’s smile completely vanished in to detached boredom as her mind slithered back behind her walls. Only now could she sense the magical power coming from this boy, he was emitting the power of the gods.

Raven didn’t have the chance to think over what the boy’s magical energy meant when yet another hero clad in red made a grand entrance. Seeing these powerful heroes nearly filled her with hope, maybe they could change her destiny, maybe they could defeat her father. No, hope is just an illusion, hope did not get things done and I will not trick myself into letting my guard down for hope.

I've updated Katarina if anyone is interested, though I might need to go back and touch some stuff and dial back her teleporting nails into people ability but it's so cool. Oh she's not a good guy btw. :p
