All this shit is pretty above my pay grade, so it's not like I'm speaking from experience here or anything, but it seems like we got a crazy ass mix of folks around here. I don't think I've ever seen so many aliens in m life and I come from a world where those guys are all over the freakin' place.

Though I gotta say, it's freakin' weird to be around a bunch of people who've never heard of Kryptonians before. [Just. Throwing that word out there. Vaguely hopeful.]

Anyway. It's late, I'm bored. We've got a shit load of aliens and sword and sorcery types up in here. Tell me somethin' good about your world. Or tell me something shitty, we can swap horror stories.

[It's late at night, which means it's time for punks in masks asking bullshit questions on the network to keep themselves from broody navel gazing. Not sleeping is kind of a thing for him, but this not brutalizing strangers who really deserve it thing is kinda new and borderline unpleasant. Feel free to spot a brightly colored spot skulking around rooftops.]

Fine.

[ So now they're back to the awkwardness that comes with absolutely not talking about issues. At least Jason's familiar with this. ]

You goin' to that dance that guy was talking about?

[Clumsiest topic change ever, but yeah, Jason knows how to at least try to navigate these awkward moments of not dealing with issues.]

Only if there's free food and drink.

[ She doesn't care if it's clumsy, so long as it's done. ]

Now that would be a crime.

So... Do your people have some kinda special evening dress? 'Cause I gotta say, I really dig your battle look.

[You get heinous flirting instead, are you happy now Gamora.]

Wouldn't know. [ Yes, because this she knows how to deal with. ] Do you ever stop?

I can, but it's really h- difficult.

[Does he get points for that?]

You're learning.

[ Yes. And a gold star. ]

That happens sometimes, yeah.

So what, are you going to go?

Don't see why not. Sounds like it might be fun.

If you like that sort of thing.

You mean fun? Yeah, I like having that sometimes.

Dancing.

Right, that.

So it's not your thing.

I always feel like a dumbass when I try, but that's kinda the point, right?

Wouldn't know.

[ no time to learn how to dance when you're too busy being trained to kill things!! ]

Ya got time to give it a try now.

Not a chance.

And why not?

I don't know how. If I couldn't kill people with it, it wasn't important.

[ well that's certainly well-adjusted ]

No intention of learning how, either.

What kinda crazy logic is that? There's lots of important shit that doesn't involve killing people and you still know how to do it.

Thanos wasn't considered sane by anyone's standard.

[ a shrug. ]

Dancing isn't important.

Fuck that guy, he sounds like a jerk.

I know a scrappy city kid who brought rock and roll to a small town who'd really disagree with you, Gamora.

[Don't make him find a copy of Footloose, he will totally do it.]

He spent most of his life devising ways to destroy the universe.

[ so yeah, kind of a jerk ... there is a reference that Gamora feels like she's missing. ]

What are you talking about?
