"Sleet." He answered, a tad caught off guard by the other hero's sudden physical presence and force of personality. The provided real name sounded slightly familiar to him; Alain didn't follow pop music, but did follow the news and remembered hearing something about an explosion. He resolved to probably look that up later. In any case, Sleet accepted the probable-Speedster's offered handshake with a normal amount of grip before speaking up again. "And I'll probably provide you my real name as well. Just, not here in this publicly accessible government building. Don't want all of the staff and anyone else around to know who I am."

While the standard fear of 'What if a villain uses my identity to get at my loved ones?' didn't quite apply to Alain, there were two additional reasons for his decision to keep his identity secret. The first was because he did not want his hero identity to immediately draw comparisons and reflection to those of his relative with publicly known IDs. He wanted to succeed on his own merits, and avoid dragging them down if he failed. The second was so he could still be relatively anonymous in public. People recognized his relatives, true, but they typically did not recognize him. That was why he had the head-concealing helmet after all.

Alain then replied to the visor-ed man's other comments and questions, judging it polite to do so. "My thanks on the compliments; I had some help on the design, so I'll be sure to pass those on. And while I do not have a fog machine on me, I can provide a similar effect."

With a quick use of his mutation, snow floated around Alain. The substance seemed to hang in the air, drifting in ways that didn't quite mesh with gravity and the lack of wind inside. Additionally, the snow quickly sublimated in the late spring air, causing a fog-like effect. After a dozen seconds of this, Alain ceased supplying the snow, and the fog subsided.

"With time and preparation I can do more;" he stated, to point out he could do more than a thin aesthetic fog, and continued "but I'd rather not cause the custodians to need to clean up. Not the n[i]ice[/i]st thing to, especially on a first day." he finished, throwing in a subtle ice pun in his last sentence to practice the habit.
