Re: Mingling
In the library Blakchawk is confronted with an unusual choice: he either approaches the young woman, who seems to be dependant on gadgets like him, or the older man with the rifle. Naturallly he would begin a conversation with the odler man first, since there's the possibility that he has far more experience in hero-work than the younger woman. But the rifle and the goggles may be connected to a military background. And as far as he's concerned theses men and women have less reservations in killing another being. Especially a twisted, resourceful and ruthless criminal, who cannot be stopped for a longer time and tend to continue their career.
Blackhawk has spent only a second with his considerations and didn't even slow down after he entered the library. So it seems like he wanted to talk to the woman since he decided to head for the library.
"I'm sorry to interrupt you, Miss, but I would like to talk to you. It regards the Protector's recent evaluation," Blackhawk says in a deep voice as he approaches the young woman in the red leotard.

"Not long ago. We left the combat simulator less than an hour ago," Blackhawk replies, feeling confident that no one can see the doubts behind his mask. "Could you tell me where yours took place? Because I'm just coming from the combat simulator."

Blackhawk barely flinches at the high pitched scream and when Gadge tells that he shouldn't mind, he doesn't even turn to take a look. Instead he keeps standing two feet away from the table, his eyes fixed on either Sage or Gadge.
"At least he's a good distraction," Blackhawk comments on Shifter. There's no hint of a joke in his voice. "I assume you mean my base of operations. That would be Freedom City. Like any other of my team. Actually I'd be interested how you handled the combat simulator situtaion. We got a little time-skip event, where we were put back to Omega's invasion in Freedom City. What did they set up for you?"

Back in the Simulation Room
"It was certainly a difficult time for him," Malador replies. "Though it was difficult for many as well. Not a time to easily relive, I agree. But a true crucible to measure a person's worth."
In the Mess Hall
As he sees the druidic magician spot him, Malador nods in greeting. But he takes the time to get some food for himself, or at least order it, before he actually approaches the man. "May I join you?" he asks. "I'm due to meet some compatriots here. But I'd very much like the opportunity to meet what other mystics will be joining the Protectors. I suspect we'll have to coordinate on matters of magical danger in the future, as well as aid each other in mystic research. "
He reaches out his hand to the druid. "Malador the Mystic, at your service," he says. "I was trained in Atlantis before the fall."

"It's a pleasure to meet you Allen," Malador replies. Then he happily listens to Druid's rambles, using the opportunity to take a few bites of his meal - vegetarian for the benefit of Druid. "Not at all," he says when Druid apologizes. "I know how it goes. I can spend a week without saying a word, only to fall into a verbal treatise when someone asks me a question." He takes a sip of orange juice.
"And yes," he adds, "I am the one who helped Lady Mystic. But the credit really goes to her. Her actions with Harbinger were something I couldn't have hoped to accomplish. Perhaps in the height of my power back in Atlantis ... and perhaps not even then." False pride was the downfall of many great mages, Malador knew. It lead to jealousy and a greed for power. And so it was something he was constantly on the watch for in himself. "Even among Master Mages, Lady Mystic is in a class by herself."
"So, which group are you with?" he asks, changing the subject. "I'm teamed with Blackhawk, Synapse, Megalith, and Painkiller. I understand they may intend us to protect Freedom City."

"I've learned to accept a great many strange things since I awoke from my aeon-long slumber," Malador says with a slight shake of his head. "Things I'd never dreamed of in lost Atlantis. Some good; some bad. But my first years awake were a constant wonder to me."
"I'm fortunate with my group," he adds. "I've worked with Megalith before, though not a great deal. And Blackhawk had consulted me on some mystic matters. So it wasn't a totally new group for me. Synapse and Painkiller are new. But they seem friendly enough. Have you heard any word about how they'll be setting us up in our cities? Will we work out of here? Will we have some kind of local base of operations? I'm looking forward to seeing how that works out."
