Worlds Collide: A Merged Universe Superhero Roleplay

@Bounce@Cyrania One small note on your posts, i thought i made it clear and forgive me if i didnt, but Bailey isnt flying at the moment, primarily because he cant get the hang of it. So he's currently down on the street.

Normally, i'd have just rolled with it, but i do want to make it clear that he is struggling to consciously use his new powers.

@mattmanganon

Got it. Thanks!

Made my post! Happy Telepathic Tuesday here.

Post is mostly short because it's late at night and I just got back from vacation, but I hope it works well for Bounce to work off of.

“Bruh, can you–”

The boy’s words were cut off by an explosion triggered by the Fiery hero and Thor. J'onn swiftly sought to cover both boys with his cape before realizing what the source was.

“You spoke in everyone’s heads earlier, right?” The blonde haired boy said, picking back up where he’d left off with J'onn. “I kinda have this thing with things that live in the water, but I’ll need to be, like, way more out of my head than usual.”

Out of his head? Could the boy mean he can...?

"THEY'RE HERE FOR A GUY NAMED ARTHUR FROM ATLANTIS!!! MAYBE IF WE CAN FIND HIM WE CAN END THIS!" A new figure screamed from the street.

Arthur...The boy's mind reacted to that name.

“Can... can you help?”

J'onn bent down to look Arthur in the eyes, scooping up Garth as he did so and prepared to scoop up Arthur if need be. "I will help as I can. He then took Arthur's hand. "Imagine yourself without form or body. Calm your mind, imagining it as an oasis within the raging storm outside. Do not fear. I shall be your anchor, your surety that you shall return. As long as you are with me, you shall be safe. Once you take that step, I shall lead you to where you seek to go.

A shorter post than I'd intended, but I didn't want to hold us up.

I couldn't think of a good way for Arthur to both respond to Shazam and pose the question to Manhunter. @Cyrania, if you want, I imagine J'onn would figure out who "Arthur from Atlantis" is if you wanted to respond to Shazam.

@Bounce

I think I could make that work.

When I submitted my sheet on the basis of 'I'm trying to re-discover my ability to write and enjoy this long-time hobby of mine, and I do not intend to collaborate or interact with other players/characters for at least the first entire arc of my story', I meant it. I've been very clear about my intentions with my participation, both to GMs and other players. If it's rubbed anyone the wrong way then I consider that a small price to pay for what has been, so far, a very successful foray back into a pastime I love dearly but have had steadily robbed from me for the past two-and-a-bit years and won't apologise for it.

@Roman

Sorry. That was too mean-spirited of me to say.

You have been clear and I can understand your reasoning to an extent.

I'm also just getting back into role-playing on here and purposefully have sought to be as open to collaborating with others as possible as a way because a.) I've found that's the most fun with collaborative roleplaying for me and b.) when I've been the overly aloof one before, it dragged the game down and made the storyline a mess. Lord Wraith can testify to it since it was his Redwall rp I did that in.

I have been enjoying your posts though and I look forward to what comes next.

That doesn't sound like role-playing to me. 🤭

@mickilennial

Kinda sounds cheaty honestly.

But when you declare at the start that you're not interested in Collabing, I suppose that's what happens.

Kal-El, you choose a terrible time to have amnesia....

It is amnesia, right?

Interesting to see Punisher's actions have consequences.

Would anyone be interested in an epilogue after the event itself concludes?

Smaller stories where people can split off if they want, rescuing people from damaged or burning buildings, swapping superhero instagrams, or whatever?

I was thinking that could provide a transition either back to people's solo stories or set up where some might want to have a more 1 on 1 or small group interaction.

@Bounce

Sorry, I forgot to comment to this.

I'd love to do this. After we see how epilogues go with the rest of the cast, we could then transition into J'onn teaching Arthur about telepathy.

Trying to keep up with this OOC is like a full time job.

@Stormyx

Too true
