Fresh meat! Er... Granite

Hey everyone! My name is Jason, and I'm brand spanking new to the game.

I'm bringing y'all one dumb mutant made out of rock. Specifically, a big dumb mutant named Santo Vaccarro from Marvel Comics' line of X-Men titles. Basically, he's your average seventeen-year-old boy with subpar grades, a cocky yet endearing attitude, and a body made of stone that he can explode at will.

He'll be mostly chill about being here, since living on top of a giant turtle is possibly one of the coolest places you could possibly live on. He'll find it kind of adorable, really.

Anyway, I'm so excited to be in this wonderful looking game, and I can't wait to get started! If you ever want to contact me, I can be reached on AIM at 'velawesomraptor', or much easier on Plurk at the same name. velawesomraptor

Hey, dude! Welcome to the turtle. :D

I'm July, and I've got DCAU!Lex and Kitty Norville (werewolf talkshow host) here.

Can't wait to see your guy on the turtle, I'm sure there'll be shenanigans to be had (or watched).

[zerotoawesome]

Oh man! I've never been in a game with a Lex before, so this is crazy exciting.

I really hope I live up to expectation and bring plenty of shenanigans.

HELLO THERE. I have pretty much no familiarity with anything X-Men, but superpowered teenagers always make me happy. :D

I'm Aubrey - I play Rikki Barnes aka Nomad from Marvel 616, Natasha Romanoff from MCU, and Olivia Dunham from Fringe, and I'm on plurk as mortalcity if you need to poke me for any reason. Welcome to the game!

[zerotoawesome]

He's floated around on some of the other teen books occasionally, but basically he's just a big dumb rock guy who is cocky enough to think he can take on Hulkling and the Hulk at the same time. SPOILERS: He can't.

It's nice to meet you!

[littlecousin]

Hey, I'm Carolyn, and I play Nita, who as far as Santo knows, is dead. There was time travel. It's complicated.

[zerotoawesome]

Isn't that always how time travel works? He'll just roll with it.

[littlecousin]

don't blame her for starting civil war oh wait mutants don't care

Anyway, always a pleasure to have more dumb mutant teenagers around. Nita and Tommy can't pick up all the "stupid decisions" slack themselves!

[cowled]

(and brandon)

[zerotoawesome]

We were in Civil War before Civil War was mainstream. /hipster mutants.

Clearly, there must be endless bad decisions happening on this turtle.

Hello, Jason, welcome to the turtle!

I am Justine and I play this here Batgirl who probably won't be all that fazed by dudes made of rock. Her best friend is from out of space, s'all good.

[zerotoawesome]

But does her best friend explode? Because, fair warning, he's likely to do that just to mess with Steph (or anybody really).

[controlledvariable]

... No, no she does not.

But Steph can deal with explosions, she's seen weirder.

[demon_brat]

Welcome to the turtletop! My name is Kiki, I play this brat here, as well as Bucky Barnes from the MCU but if Santo knows Bucky, feel free to tell him about it, and, basically, I hope you have fun!

[zerotoawesome]

My favorite Robin! Is it absolutely horrible that I can see Santo annoying Damian all the time? He will make Damian smile... or beat Santo up.

He'll just ask Bucky what it was like to punch Hitler. because all the Invaders must have punched him at least once.

[demon_brat]

Ohhh! :D Of course he will annoy him all the time, most of the world - any world - annoys Damian all the time. So, all of the above. ;)

BUAHAHAHAH and Bucky will refer him to Steve. ;) Yeeaaaah, heh.

[backwordscompatible]

So many puns. I don't know how I'm going to get through them all.

Welcome and salutations. I'm Hina, and I play a magic girl.

[zerotoawesome]

Well, hopefully there will be plenty of time to get through at least some!

Thanks! And I apologize in advance for the possibly inevitable fail!flirting that might occur.

[backwordscompatible]

Down, boy. She's only 14.

But never apologize. Zatanna's a bit of a flirt herself, so both she and I would be amused by it.

[zerotoawesome]

Okay, not Invasion!Zatanna. Maybe playful brotherly teasing then.

[arbadacarba]

Haha. I *do* play Invasion Zatanna also. But alas, not here.

Playful teasing is perfectly acceptable.

[cowled]

Hello and welcome to turtletopia! I'm Roy and I play Batman here, as well as Aisha from the Losers (comic) and Brandon from Avengers Acad (pre... uh, just about everything, so he'll have no idea who Rockslide is, whoops.) as well as Asami Sato from Legend of Korra.

I hope you like it here, and if you have any questions don't hesitate to toss 'em my way!

[zerotoawesome]

Oh man! A unicorn Batman! That automatically makes you about 100x more awesome! Santo will... Probably annoy him and fanboy eventually... Because goddamn batman!

Does Santo need to be worried about not outing Brandon, then? Because he's kind of outed his friends before.......... Sorta.

[cowled]

... ROFL UM.

Brandon is actually so far in the closet still in Keeliai that he's chasing unicorns in Narnia. He's actually dating Steph Brown from DC and nursing a hideous crush on Tommy Shepherd and their relationship is Complicated with a capital C. Getting into it was sort of an accident and it's gotten progressively worse since then because now there are feelings involved and he doesn't know how to get out of it without hurting her.

...

SO LONG STORY SHORT: yes please god don't blow his cover at least not publicly. Brandon would probably also freak out if Santo mentioned it to him privately because he's pretty much resolved to never come out ever at this point in his life.

#teenaged soap opera

[zerotoawesome]

Okay! He definitely won't just blab it over the network or anything. He learned his lesson with Victor about not just publicly announcing that someone is gay.

No promises that he won't ask what's up privately, though. Because it's just unfair that Brandon gets someone hot like Stephanie and gets to be into dudes.

[cowled]

I think that'd be awesome fun to play out, actually. Because right now literally no one in Keeliai knows, whoops.
