The lass's entire body seemed to tense when Hi-Voltage sat, not a promising start. Maybe he should have just left well enough alone instead of sticking his nose in. Still he was here now, in for a penny, in for a pound as they say. The girl seemed to take a few seconds to study him before answering, an uncomfortable experience as far as Volt was concerned. Still, it wasn't everyday someone found themselves at a gathering of primary-coloured superhero's, everyone's sense of etiquette was bound to be a little off. He took the time to study her right back. She was short but well muscled, able to carry off skin-tight leather quite well, which is no easy feat. The amount of heroes and heroines he had seen that chose to go out in public decked out in formfitting leather costumes that they just didn't have the body type to look good in really was astounding. Just because you might have superpowers does [b]NOT[/b] mean that you also have the body of a supermodel. 

"Hey there! Name's Eclipse, nice seeing a friendly face. So tell me erm.. Volt. What do you do? I mean like, powers wise." she finally asked with a smile. A strange question, all told. With a codename like his he woulda thought it obvious what he did. Wasn't like he had picked the name for its ambiguity, in fact quite the opposite.[I] I wonder if anyone ever asks Batman what his favourite flying mammal is? [/i]He choked out a laugh before he answered.

"I generate and manipulate electricity. . . " He fizzled out when he realised she had stopped listening, probably before he had even started speaking. Szymon always told him he was pretty boring for a superhero, but he'd never figured on just how much. A couple of seconds passed of Volt just sitting there awkwardly, trying to make up his mind on whether he should get up and leave or not, before Eclipse blinked and seemed to re-join him in the land of the living. 

"Excuse me, sorry did you say something? I kinda went somewhere else for a second." she sounded genuine, so Volt tried not to hold it against her. Still, anymore of that and his feelings might get hurt. [I] This girl is almost as weird as Strix, and that's really saying something cause he is bat-shit crazy. [/I]

"Nothing important, obviously." He answered with another smile "Just that I shoot lightning bolts at bad guys. But what about you Eclipse, what brings you here?"
