A fun time at the fun fair (The Necessary)

Lilu suddenly awakens with a quick shake to find himself slowly floating upon his rigid back, he slightly bends his head up to the clock he set for the little get together at a fair with the others. He quickly dips his head backwards as his body flow with the movement as he moves like a sloth through the pool to slowly exit.

After finally making his way out of the large mansion in now which he resides when off the islands, he goes off to the nearest streets as cars zoomed by. Lilu without hurrying raises his arm up and began to scratch his head in slow strokes as he remembered the location of the meet up. If he was correct it was quite a distance away from his current location, and Lilu did not feel like putting any effort into getting to the location. Lilu rests his arms down as he folded them upon his bare chest with only his lava-lava being hiding his uncovered body. Thinking back to old films about the states, Lilu's memories drop off a scene from a old New York film with a guy waving his arm for someone to pull over.

For what seemed like hours sat down in a meditating pose waving weakly every few minutes to passing cars, finally a older model looking van pooled over to the side in front of Lilu. With a loud creak the side door slid open revealing a small family. Two smaller children a boy and a girl dressed in loose fitting baggy pants and crops top, with the parents sitting front rocking the same look but with the older male long brown dreads and a beard. The man upfront told Lilu he recognized the pose from when his family took a yoga journey to Hawaii, Llilu agreed with a nod citing a simple request of a short ride to the fair. The family happily obliged and told Lilu to hop in into the middle seat in the back. lilu quickly offered a singing lesson to the family while on the trip to give them something for their help, which in turned caused a group sing along in the van to random songs the entire trip with Lilu stringing away at his ukulele.

As the van raced down the rode, with joyful tunes pouring out from the van, Lilu suddenly spots the fair and a small group of the new people he was working with formed close by. The van pulled up besides Tyler, Astrid and Medicine Women, Lilu lazily steps out from the van but not before hugging each member of the family from the van, and saying "`A`ohe lokomaika`i i nele i ke pâna`i, We should meet up again I enjoyed that time" as the family nodded and drove off from the sight.

Lilu at a slow pace began to stretch his body exposing his true length and muscular nature, as his lava-lava barely shifted from his movement. Folding his arms upon his bare chest as he steadily inched to the front of the small group he speaks with a deep voice saying "Aloha, greetings all". However, his intention is quickly snatched away with catching full sight of the beauty of Medicine Women, with a quick curve of his body to face her as he takes a small step closer to her. Lilu resumes his normal smooth and calm tone as he speaks towards her " You have blessed my humble soul with such breathtaking beauty of such a kindred spirit such as yourself, a awe-inspiring mane of brilliant dark raven colored hair runs down your soft nature kissed face of pure natural beauty which upon even the mother of the earth itself can not ignore", Lilu face is captured by a warm smile with sparkle in his eyes.

Malik woke up on the wrong side of the bed.
No, literally! He was under the bed.
He woke up to a dust bunny soaring into his mouth.
He coughed and pulled it out.
"C'mon man..."
Alright... Where the hell am I?
He stood up to find he was in a very large bedroom.
Oh right... The superhero team...
He was never really a morning person.
He made his way to the kitchen and made a small bit of coffee.
He didn't like coffee and he DID like breakfast.
BUT he didn't like it when people ate up all his food.
So he didn't make breakfast.

After recovering from the morning funk, he realized he had two text messages.
One was from his high-school sweetheart who always tried to reach out and figure out his disappearance.
He deleted that one without reading it.
Then he saw the other from Tyler. It instructed him to meet the rest of the team at the fair at 2:30.
It was 11:23. He could go grab some spray-paint for guns.
He stepped into his blacked out Camaro, turned on some old school rap (the stuff he was raised on) and went shopping.

At around 2:15 Malik pulled up to the scene.
He always loved the fair, a whole bunch of people just clustered together having a GREAT time.
He also loved that NO ONE knew he was The Demonic Dire.
He LOVED it all.
He was wearing a green and grey snap-back flatbill hat with a palm tree on the front, backwards on his head.
He was wearing black aviator sunglasses with a multi-colored (pink, blue, green) sleeveless t-shirt, a pair of grey camo pants, black and blue basketball socks, some matching Nike Air Force 1's, and his watch that activated his supersuit.
He found Tyler and Astrid easily enough, Astrid was NOT hard to miss.
She was the prettiest girl there thus far, not saying that was a hard thing to achieve.
He shook those thoughts out of his head and approached them.
They were accompanied by an Indian woman and a really buff hawaiian dude. Well compared to him anyway.
He knew he had a Ryan Reynolds type of build.
He got in earshot of the group and walked in on the hawaiian dude hitting on the Indian girl...
Heh... That sounds like a joke setup... He thought.
"Hello hello! Got your text, Ty. Can't miss the fair! Astrid you look nice as always." He said without even looking to Astrid to see her disapproving face.
He turned to Lilu and MW. "And you are???"

Diana Mendoza, aka Ronin, aka The Asian chick with the swords-in-a-tube, arrived a bit late, but was no worse for wear. She disembarked from the cab, her favored mode of transport. She was wearing glasses, a baseball cap of her school backward, a white crop top without sleeves, runners' pants and designer jump shoes for the hot day at the fair, which would be full of activities no doubt. Her hair was in a ponytail, and she was sipping her starbucks grande frappe.

When she arrived she saw not only Tyler, Astrid and Medicine Woman, but also the other presumed members of the new group. "Hey all." She waved at the familiar faces of Tyler, Astrid, Medicine woman, and offered a fist-bump to the other members. "The Ronin is here. So, who wants to ride the roller coaster?" She pointed to the aptly named Slaughterer, a roller coaster guaranteed to "turn your insides out".

so Jeannie is super excited one it was an all you can eat pancake day at IHOP and two she gets to meet the new hero team she'd be joining.

so a couple dozen pancakes latter Jeannie makes her way to the meeting place. the fair? oh, my gosh there idea of a team building exercise is a day at the fair! this is shaping up to be the best team ever. so making her way around she hopes she'll stick out enough they notice her. her motley crew t-shirt and blue jeans are pretty average clothes for a superhero.

she then notices some familiar smells in the crowd and goes to follow them. as usually her nose never lets her down as she spots her friend Malik,Astrid her blind date that got her into this,and the shamen lady she meet in Cleveland awhile back. with them was a big Hawaiian dude guessing his the team's muscle. another guy and a cute Asian girl expressing interest in rollercoaster being the team's first stop at the fair. see goes over to join them

hey sorry i keep you guys waiting,promise being late won't become a thing with me,just the pancake place had all you can eat deal today on all the flavors too,Malik you know I love pancakes and Astrid you remember from our date how i have a hard time with choices,so i had to try them all,so anyway I'm here now and quite sugar high,so all set for a day full of adventure,and rollercoasters i agree with her,them are fun. oh yeah, I'm Jeannie,for those of you I haven't met yet and it's nice to see the ones I have again.Jeannie smiles happily about meeting new friends at the fair

When everyone started to turn up a smile grew over Tyler's face, he gave out fist bumps and waves to everyone who showed up and watched them all conversate between each other, it was magical to him. seeing all of his teammates (except stone, he would probably just come wandering in anyway) around him almost brung a tear to his eye.

Astrid felt completely different about the situation. Everytime someone else would show up  Astrid became sad than the moment she was before hand. when everyone came over and talked to her she just looked up and smiled at them, trying to hide her sadness as best as possible.

Tyler let the members of his group talk for a bit before clapping loudly to get everyone's attention. "Ok guys, today we're gonna split up into groups. One group, my group, will have Myself, Malik and Lilu in. The other group will have you girls in." Tyler stated with a grin on his face. "Make sure to have fun.

Astrid quickly propped herself up and stood closer to the rest of the group so that the girls could conjugate a sort of council.

Tyler walked up to Malik and Liliu and asked them "What should we ride first?"

((This group shall be split into two separate groups from this point onwards. after finishing the first set of threads I will put in a little reminder saying "return to first thread" and our groups will mix up. then once that is finished we will come back here to end the Group mission.))

"It is good to see you again, Ms. Jeannie." Medicine Woman smiled pleasantly at the young lady who had helped her a while ago.

She then offered her name to the young man (Dire): "I am Medicine Woman.  Perhaps you will tell me your name?"

Her gaze was then directed at the Hawaiian male (Lilu): "My name is Medicine Woman. You seem to have a talent for singing. Are you a singer by trade?"
And yes, she heard every word Lilu said about her, but is too surprised to reply.  It did make her think, though, when he called her a "kindred spirit". Some Hawaiian traditions parallel AmerInd ones.  She'd definitely have to look into that.

When Diana asked about riding the rollercoaster, Medicine Woman replied: "Thank you, but you can go ahead and enjoy the ride. I would much prefer to see what else this fair offers."

((OOC: Medicine Woman looks more like a "wholesome girl-next-door" type, so she doesn't look much like a "supermodel".))
