I want to continue. A couple of posts that unite the characters, perhaps?
Maybe we could make a titanpad for collab posts. We'll be able to discuss worldbuilding freely in the chat, too.

But... I wanna kick Luke in the tushy...
It ain't dead... It's just moving along at a very sluggish pace.

Oh I see whats going on here... trying to get people to join you in GABE'S SYMPATHY PARTY!
Well, I say, if you're gonna pick a fight with your crush's preferred guy, you gotta build an army first. For a name, I was thinking something along the lines of THE GUYS THAT'LL BEAT PLASTIC MAN'S TUSHY, or TGTBPMT for short.
Posted.
Sam, assuming that Dizzy gets Jin to accept Luke's offer, do you want to work on a collab post? I was thinking that Gabe offers to take Magnus for a movie instead, and they become friends over time. Would that be cool?

The machines that were used to heal injuries were surprisingly effective, Gabe found. It was the League's equipment, after all. His bullet wound had healed in three days, all evidence of its existence gone except for a barely visible scar. However, though the wound was healed, the pain was not. Gabe was weaker than usual, and the taking of deep breaths often resulted in racking coughing fits, the pain emanating from his chest. Whether this was the result of getting shot or because of something else, Gabe didn't know. Was he allergic to bullets? The more he dwelled on the question, the more he realised how idiotic it was.
He was with the rest of the team when Billy Batson, Captain Marvel, handed them each a credit card. Gabe found shopping to be an extreme bore, but he also found himself in a position of extreme guilt, as he was the one that burned everyone's belongings in the first place. After he woke up from a very brief coma, he was repeatedly scolded by Jin for being such an idiot, for letting his feelings take control, for not using his head. As much as he felt obligated to listen to her, he had often caught himself focusing on her features, not on her words. He couldn't help it. A fluttery feeling filled his stomach whenever he looked at her. What was that feeling? All he knew was that he was very fond of her.
Snapping himself back into reality, Gabe noticed, for the gajillionth time, that Magnus, who had only just recently revealed the name to everyone, was human, a feeling of disbelief coming with the observation each time. The guy seemed happy, and Gabe was happy for him as a result. Being a werewolf seemed to suck. A lot. So seeing Magnus happy was sure to bring a smile to anyone's face. If not, then you're probably Batman. Gabe hoped, not for the first time, that Batman couldn't read thoughts.
And then something happened which changed Gabe's reasonably good mood. Luke asked Jin if she wanted to go shopping with him. Though Luke hadn't said it, Gabe heard "Just the two of us" somewhere in there as well. And almost instantly, he felt a pang of... what was that feeling? It was a mixture of anger, hurt, hostility... Wasn't that jealousy? He was looking forward to watching a movie with Jin, a plan which had been postponed due to Bronze Tiger's rampage and subsequent death. He'd planned to ask Jin if it was still happening... Another plan, one that was repeatedly bashed in the face by Luke. But not yet, right? Jin was yet to answer Plas, after all. As these thoughts passed through his head, Gabe tried to keep his confused feelings from showing, but ultimately failed. His facial expression betrayed him. He'd never been good at hiding his feelings, anyway... No matter how hard Batman had tried to change it. His eyes darted quickly from Jin to Luke, dreading the answer that his brain was convinced she would say.

I'll make a post in a couple of hours (say seven-eight). Gabe's gonna get all "DA FUQ ARE YOU DOING ASKING MY GIRL OUT?!" on Plas.
I'll make a post sometime tomorrow, can't at the moment.
EDIT: I have writer's block for this RP. Crap. I ain't leaving, I'm just waiting for my writing mojo to come back. Sorry 'bout that. It'll only be one or two days, I reckon.

'Holy crap,' thought Jonny, in a language that was evidently Egyptian, as he was transported along with everyone else into the Animus. Though he could speak and understand Egyptian, he could not read the hieroglyphs. Strange. He noted a change of skin tone, as it was now much darker, and found that he was wearing a blue, hooded robe. At his hip was what he identified as a scimitar, appearing to have been custom made. Was his ancestor rich?
The memories that were flowing into his head seemed to imply otherwise. His name was Assim. He was born to a peasant family, and helped out on the family farm regularly due to his father's declining health. When his mother died, she passed onto him the deadly weapon that was now held at his hip. She told him to seek training, to join an order of sorts. He did as she wished. He now knew how to fight, how to climb, how to kill.

Name: Finn Mercer
Alias: Sandstorm
Age: 20
Powers: To manipulate and generate scorching sand
Weaknesses: Water can cause his sand to turn to mud, rendering his power practically useless. Also, general human weaknesses.
Personality: Good-natured, snarky (comments occasionally reference Australian culture, which may confuse the other heroes), rebellious
Enemies:
Oceanmaster - manipulates salt water - costume resembles a diving suit of old.
Drop Bear - seemingly teleports, reappears above his victim, dropping on top of them and devouring them - looks something like this:
Hometown: Wagga Wagga (outback city in New South Wales, Australia)
How long in Astro City: One month
Hero Experience: One year
Appearance:
This, but a yellow and green colour scheme (micro coming soon)
BRIEF Bio: Finn was born in Wagga Wagga, New South Wales, Australia, to his soldier father and farmer mother. As he grew, he helped his mother around the outback farm, and barely saw anything of his father, as he was frequently away serving the ADF. After graduating from high school, Finn did a brief two year stint in the army, where he learned to fight and think on his feet. While doing a bushwalk during a training exercise, he stumbled and fell into a pool of quicksand, which, unbeknownst to him, had been cursed by the aborigines that had previously owned the land. Successfully getting himself out of the quicksand, Finn discovered that he had gained the power to manipulate and generate scorching hot sand. Deciding to leave the army, Finn had a suit tailored and he soon made himself known as the superhero... Sandstorm.
Notes:
- His rebellious nature caused him to get into a bit of trouble in the army, much to the disappointment of his father. This strained relationship, along with his newfound superhero career, eventually caused Finn to leave for Astro City. He soon found, however, that his enemy, Drop Bear, followed him there, and that another villain, Oceanmaster, who would prove to be quite possibly his arch-nemesis, was awaiting his arrival
- Has experience in mixed martial arts and self defence due to his time in the ADF, and can therefore hold his own in a fight quite well
