Seems to be a lot of introductions and specific requests on this thing recently. Let's change things up a bit. Here's a few general questions for the masses:

1. If you could travel to any time period, when would it be and why?
2. If you could have any superpower, what would you want? Why?
3. What's your stripper name? Name of your first or favorite pet/stuffed animal + the name of the street you grew up on. Mine's 'Bear Handley'.

Feel free to comment on everybody else's answers. That's what's supposed to make forums like this interesting.

Excuse me?

Maybe lying is the wrong way to put it. Pretending to be normal, maybe? In two public conversations on this post you've let slip that you know of other Earths more intimately than most people, and implied you're something other than human.

And yet you're cagey about things like where Aldebaran Rum is from or why you didn't have any pets or stuffed animals growing up. I take it those would've been a little out of the norm too?

Well, crap. I'd thought I'd gotten better at that. ( No, she really hasn't. ) You're a lot more knowledgeable about this stuff than most. Can I take that as confirmation that you know The Flash, then?

( Deflection won't save her now, but she's honestly curious. )

I don't know where Aldebaran Rum is from--just that it's served in a little dive bar on my Earth. Uh. A little, yeah. Though you know, since my adoptive father was abducted and thought dead for over a decade, his wife really didn't have the time to look after two girls and a pet.

It's not been easy on her.

You can.

So what are you, if not human?

I'd like to know whether you're on good or bad terms with Barry first.

If you don't mind.

( Because Barry's a decent judge of character, so far as she knows. More than that, she trusts his opinion. Even if he's not here. )

We're on good enough terms that I already knew his name outside the Flash costume. Luckily for you.

I know. I don't usually take... risks.

( Not as herself, anyway. )

Well, you'd probably say I'm out of this world. Literally. Aliens are more common than metahumans on my Earth.

With yourself or with other people?

I'm guessing you're not a little green person, since you're pretending to be human?

Honestly? Both, usually.

( Because otherwise people might start assuming she's comparable to a god, which—well, wouldn't do anyone any good. )

Um, no. Actually to look at me, you wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

What about you? What do you do for a living?

I'm a thief and a villain.

That's not all though, is it?

Or you wouldn't know what The Flash's real name is.

( Oh she's so naive, isn't she? But she's assuming that just like her, there's more to this guy than there might otherwise seem. )

I blackmailed my way into that information.

I don't remember him being rich. :P

( Or anyone connected to him, for that matter. But she also has no idea that he technically owns S.T.A.R. Labs, either. )

[ ... he can't tell if she's actually this naive or if she's fucking with him. though he's leaning towards the former. ]

Do me a favor, go read that thread with Cisco, then come back.
