[Johnny just finished getting settled into his new place. He still has a long list of things he actually needs to get done. But he’s putting that off until later. ]

Well, I’ve been here for a while now, so I figure I might as well introduce myself on this thing. The names Johnny Storm. This isn’t my first world jumping adventure or whatever, but the last place I was in was way different. But I won’t go into detail about that.

[He says, waving it off slightly.]

Anyway. Just moved from the terrible apartment that I got when I arrived and into something ten times better. Last place had awful itchy bed sheets, poorly made furniture. I got the feeling that if I fired up in that place I’d burn it down. Roasting the furniture might have been doing the places décor a favor.

So I have introduced my handsome self to you all, now you all do the same.

[Another man with an amusingly large ego? Karla can't help giggling. She can't argue about him being handsome, though.]

Hello...I'm Karla. I'm a Deputy Guardian for Genessia City.

[burnwithawesome]

[Hey. He'll have you know, his ego isn't large. It's HUGE.]

Well hello Karla, Deputy Guardian for Genessia City. If you are a deputy, does that mean if I do something wrong, you'll put handcuffs on me?

[swordprincess]

[Well, that got awkward real fast. What kind of question is that?]

Ah...well...I think knocking you out would be more effective.

But why would you ask a question like that?

Re: [Video]

[burnwithawesome]

Cause it doesn't seem like it would be such a terrible thing if a cute girl like you did it.

[Well, if the handsome many says so, Ted will obey.]

"Hello Mr. Storm. I'm Ted."

[burnwithawesome]

Please, just call me Johnny. It's a pleasure to meet you, Ted.

[youfool]

[Not a phrase he's used to hearing much, polite or otherwise. The smile grew another inch.]

"Likewise, Johnny. Tell me about yourself."

Is that your real name? You were born to be a weather man, dude.

Re: video;

[burnwithawesome]

It is. I'm part of a long lineage of Storms. And no thank you. Weather man would be such a boring job. Although my face is pretty much made to be in the public eye..

[stairsbro]

Yeah, you're pretty much as attractive as they come. [ ... ] Okay. We all know it's true facts so I ain't even going to backtrack that one. You should be in films.

[ Tony was actually speechless.

Sure, he knew things around Genessia were weird. He knew there were countless dimensions and alternate versions of the same people and he even knew that there was probably more than one Tony Stark out there in the multiverse, but this? This guy?

Maybe it was the lack of sleep playing tricks on his mind. Maybe this was what finally going crazy felt like. Or maybe there really was a man walking around with a face eerily similar to Steve Rogers and the exact opposite of his personality. ]

... can you repeat all of that?

[ His brain had started to shut down right after the first few words. ]

[video]

[burnwithawesome]

You aren't being serious, right? I can replay the message for you, if you are in disbelief. [Cause he can't recall all of what he said off the top of his head.]

[video]

[mechanica]

No, I said it completely for fun.

[ Despite his initial disorientation sarcasm came as easily as it usually did. It was a good defense against thinking too hard. ]

Don't bother. I can do that myself. What was your name? Jack Frost or something?

[synthdetective]

Now that is one heck of a name! Name's Nick Valentine, and I'm disappointed that we never crossed paths in that apartment.

Video

[burnwithawesome]

[Whoa! That's sort of a..unique appearance. Looks like of like a robot or something.]

You don't have a bad one yourself. It's the sort of name I'd expect a movie star to have or something. And I tried my best not to stay in there unless I was going to bed. Probably not the worst apartment in the world, but definitely not one I want to live in.

[synthdetective]

[ Nick is looking down at his device with his 'good' hand, and he tilts his hat with the other. ]

Now that is the first time I've heard anyone mention my name sounding like it belongs to a movie star. [ Way to make Nick feel pretty damn good about that beat up old mug of his. ]

And, no, I don't think anyone wants to spend time locked up in a 10x10 room. And not when there is all of this to explore. [ He motions to the street that he's roaming with a hand. ] And many new people to meet.

[justicereigns]

Is that a literal firing up, or just for a smoke?

[The guy with two cigars wants to know.]

[Video]

[burnwithawesome]

Literal firing up. Not with smoking. I never touch the things. [He can see that's not the case for this guy. He must have a big huge mansion in flavor country to have to smoke two things at once like that.]

[Video]

[justicereigns]

Is that kind of attitude just common to fire-users or something?

[Nope, literally doesn't even explain it. And Smoker would have pawned off his mansion... to buy cigars. So more like, tobacco companies are faring well single-handedly by this guy who apparently doesn't do moderation.]

[Cas looks impressed when the feed initializes, but what exactly she's impressed by is up in the air.]

Wow. I love a guy who's humble.

( video; )

[burnwithawesome]

I'm the most humble. I'm honestly impressed by my humbleness.

( video; )

[justalittlerunaway]

[Cas can't help but laugh at this.]

And modest, too. Gee, it's like you're too good to be true.

[Sorry Johnny, Airy is giggling.]

That's how you decide to say hello?

[It sounds like he was practicing the introduction.]

I actually have a quick question. promise it'll be quick. [So he can get back to introductions.]

How do you practice your 'flame on' thing? [She may or may not have over heard something about that.]

Video

[burnwithawesome]

Well yeah, why not? Got to make it memorable. [People would likely remember him.]

What, do ou mean how do I control my abilities?

Video

[imaginationswoes]

[It is memorable.]

Yes. Is it hard to control?
