Video from the Gym car, Domino 17. Mingling okay! Tag around etc

[ She's been meaning to ask this for a while, but never got around to it. Until now! ]

So I know you've all just finished filling out Stark's questionnaire, but I've got another question for you. Short, this time.

This is for everyone, not just the new lot, by the way. And if you're just responding with audio, say your name before you talk, because there's a lot of us nowadays... Actually, say your name even if you're using the cameras.

[ Pause, as she remembers how to phrase the question ] Basically... What's your specialty? If you were known for something back home, or you've realised since getting here that you can do something that the rest of us can't, what is it?

[usernamesarecool]

Suppose I'll start us off then, I'm the Doctor-I'm a time traveler.

[enthunder]

[ there's a brief delay in which she tabs to the roster to confirm that, yes, that's his name. ]

Can you do that here? Time travel?

[sensitiveapple]

My name is Misa, I was in training to be a courtesan. Meaning, I have knowledge of fashion, hair, cosmetics, and can even play a lute.

[enthunder]

[ Those are all skills Light really doesn't have, so she respects that. ]

I have a feeling that that's going to come in handy. If you want, give me a list of cosmetics you'd need, and some of us can pool points to order them.

[yilingdaddy]

[ He still looks a little rough around the edges since yesterday, but he's perked up a little since a certain discovery. ]

I'm Wei Ying, courtesy name Wuxian. [ Since she'd asked so nicely! He taps his nose thoughtfully before shrugging a little and flashing her a grin. ]

Being cheeky is one of my specialties. But you could also say necromancy. [ Which might get him on the angry list but...she asked. ]

[Video]

[enthunder]

[ Ah, it's her neighbour. She'd not gotten a chance to talk to him about Wangji, and given the outpouring of support already she's not likely to, but she still rolls her eyes at him with a little more care than usual. ]

We've definitely got enough of that first one, but the second- don't know much about it. Death magic?

[thebetterweapon]

Name's Vic Creed, I'm a soldier. Specialty in hand to hand and sniping.

[enthunder]

Great. We do practice and sparring in the gym each morning, if you're interested. More the hand-to-hand than the sniping...

Video

[yep_stilldead]

Thank you for asking, Miss... er... [She didn't give her name, huh. Moving on!]

...that is, I suppose I'm mainly known for being a ghost. It means there are a lot of things I can't do, but it has advantages, too. For instance, I can float through walls, and turn invisible, and also I can't die, no matter how dangerous things get. I've already died, after all.

Video

[enthunder]

Er, Lightning. [ Yeah, that's thrown her, it took her a moment of self-recrimination before she could respond. She clears her throat. ]

You... might wanna talk to Wuxian, since he can control ghosts. See how that interacts.

[Video]

[chronosexual]

Captain Jack Harkness, at your service. [ Have a salute, good viewer. ]

I'm a man who can't die, and I also happen to be very attractive.

[Video]

[enthunder]

[ She's so used to Edge and Inigo now, she just sighs. ] Immortality, huh. What're you a Captain of?

video

[pleple]

Ple Two. I pilot mobile suits, large humanoid war machines - tending to start around eighteen meters tall, although a few models are smaller and many are larger - with a centrally located cockpit in the torso.

video

[enthunder]

[ Impressive, for a kid, but then she supposes that unimpressive kids wouldn't get pulled here. Still. ] You think you could pilot one you'd never seen before?

[ Audio ]

[hashtagparkerluck]

It's Peter. Parker.

I have spider powers and am also a super hero known as Spider-Man. I stick to stuff and I'm really strong.

[ Audio ]

[enthunder]

"Spider powers" isn't really... You know what, that works. Thanks, Peter.

[Video]

[unfavorableinstigation]

Ah- Nita Callahan. Wizard.

Which- actually means more 'interspecies diplomacy' and 'linguistics' than just spellcasting.

[Video]

[enthunder]

Interspecies diplomacy is what we do here, so you're gonna be a big help.

Audio

[tholes]

Steve Rogers. Mostly a soldier, occasionally an artist.

[thebetterweapon]

Only mostly?

[adropofsunlight]

[It seems like a lot of people are very open about what they can do... This is giving the young woman a bit of pause for a moment. The things she had been told about the world, the scary things, the reasons she shouldn't go outside... She really had yet to see such things.

So it made her wonder if she should take the giant leap and actually...inform people of why her hair is so long? Taking a deep breath for this one as she ponders over this situation. To say something and maybe not have anything bad happen to her like Mother Gothel seems to think or keep it to herself?

It was a good five minutes before she finally speaks up.]

Rapunzel here! My specialty is... Um... well... [Knocking people out with frying pans? She shook her head slightly, trying to muster up her courage a little bit to be able to speak. Instead, it comes out more like a mumble.]

My hair is magical and has healing properties when I sing. [And is quick to say other stuff right after.] I can do a lot of things with my hair, like I can use it for climbing, swinging from it, that kind of thing. Oh! I also have a lot of skills.

[hashtagparkerluck]

Oh my god, that's awesome! I mean, a little strange-but not in a bad way. Then again, I did meet a wizard, so maybe not that strange.

[ Peter's got good ears and he heard that part. ] Does it work if you just sing anything? Or something specific? Also, how do you use it for climbing? Doesn't that hurt?

audio

[radishlobbyist]

[ She's still trying to figure out that whole technology business but hey, gonna give this her best shot! Roll calls are a good idea. ]

My name is Wen Qing. I'm a trained physician. For humans. [ So okay, maybe she is a little bit frustrated still after her first medical experiences. ] I can also fight with a sword and acupuncture needles, I'm a cultivator.

[enthunder]

[ Like Feanor, Light has a mild case of concern that their harried conversation in the midst of the recent epidemic had caused the train to specifically bring them a medical expert. Or it's a total coincidence.

She decides not to worry too much about it. ]

Do you have everything you need? We've been using magic to heal most things so far, which was great right up until someone got the flu. [ She hopes Peter is listening. ]

Anyway. Fighting's easier: we train in the mornings, in the Gym carriage.

Audio

[shutupnail]

My name is Piccolo. I'm a martial artist. [pause] Since I don't sense anyone quite on my level here I'll point out that my specialty is ki manipulation. Which basically means I can fly and create energy blasts. [And more but semantics. He doesn't want to confuse anyone.] Oh, and... I'm a Namekian.

[thebiggestguy]

No one on your level?

[Dread does have some pride after all, when it comes to his abilities.]

[onehandsomeslickninja]

Edge, King of Eblan and head of the Eblan ninja clan, hereby declares his specialty to be appreciating how very pretty you are, Lightning!

There's a secondary thing there about 'best ninja everywhere' but right now I'm being challenged for the position by the Single White Rose of Wutai.

[enthunder]

[ She really hopes that wasn't a train-wide answer, for his sake. ]

... Let me know when the two of you figure it out.

[deductionrival]

Hattori Heiji.

[This may reverse with the translation so his first name (Heiji) is first, but whatever.]

Conan and I are the best detectives in Japan. I'm also the best kendo swordsman in my school's region.

[enthunder]

Let's hope you don't have to investigate any homicides in here.

[ ... ] Although if Edge opens his mouth again, you just might.

[runs_on_batteries]

Tony Stark, best at everything.

[Okay he can't say that without laughing.]

This was a great idea, Light. I'm making notes of responses to everyone's questionnaire.

[enthunder]

You know, I don't know if your specialty is the tech or the paperwork.

[ She's already regretting this, and he does it every two weeks. ]

[badassfreakingoverlord]

Hyaaaha ha ha ha ha! I, Lord Zetta, am the most badass freaking Overlord in the entire cosmos! That's not just my specialty, it means there's NOTHING I can't do a literal billion times better than anyone here!

...uh, so long as arms aren't necessary, but I'm working on that!

[enthunder]

You're working... on arms.

[ That's so ominous? ]

[deductiongeek]

Conan Edogawa.

Like Hattori said, we're detectives. Homicide,mostly. Although we'll take any other cases.

[enthunder]

Anything you've noticed while you've been here?

[schrodingersghost]

Danny Fenton.

Ghost-fighting, I guess. I'm half-ghost, so I can do all kinds of ghost-type things.

[enthunder]

Did you get the warning about 1B and 4A before?

[signseeker]

Will Stanton.

[A pause. He wasn't exactly hiding what he was or what he could do, but he wasn't entirely sure whether that was really something he should be announcing to the public.]

I'm rather good at languages, I suppose. And you might call me a kind of wizard.

[enthunder]

Looks like we got another like that yesterday, a Nita Callahan. Maybe compare... wizard notes.

[ She's not trying to be condescending, she just genuinely has no idea what either of them do. ]

[myblueskies]

It's Romeo miss!

Um I'm a shinki so I can jump real good! I can do borderlines which are weapons and shields and I know two spells! One is bind which stops people moving and one is umbra which makes me or someone else invisible. But I got to know your name to cast a spell on you and there's lots of stuff about superiority and stuff. [He waves his hands vaguely. He knows how to cast spells, but not really enough to explain it.]

If Elfnein calls my shinki name I turn into my vessel form which is a weasel and when I'm like that I make everyone feel better, if things are very scary they don't feel so bad if I go near them!

video

[enthunder]

Does it matter what name you know? Say, the ones on the roster, or the ones we're actually all using.

[ Just gonna shelf that 'turning in a weasel' bit for a moment. ]

Video

[internetsexsymbol]

Arataka Reigen, greatest psychic of the 21st century and spiritual consultant, at your service!

I also have skills as a masseur and in graphic design.

Video

[enthunder]

We've got two artists so far, if you ever feel like making posters or something.

[ She's definitely running out of steam at this point, please help. ]

I guess you'll have noticed, being a spiritual consultant, but we've got some ghosts on board. Let them know if they should be avoiding anywhere you've warded.

[darklighthero]

My name's Jak, but my real name is Mar. I have the ability to channel all forms of eco, a living energy. In fact, I'm a eco channler. I can also absorb eco into my body.

I also have two entities living inside my head that i switch to depending on my emotions. However, They balance me out. I just call these two dark and light (Dark Jak and Light Jak)

Dark Jak


Light Jak

[enthunder]

Is there eco on the train for you to channel?

[anewhero]

Hi, my name is Marcus Wright. I'm a living half human half terminator cyborg. Pretty much I have the ability to do things that not a lot of humans can do. I can take on missions considered difficult for normal humans to handle, I can handle gun shot wounds and heal from them without bleeding. I feel everything though.

I'm also a pretty damn good mechanic and I know my way around a gun. Shotguns, plasma guns, you name it.

I can also regenerate my organs as I found out as I was buried alive one day.

I'm also a small commander of a group of Resistance soldiers back home

[enthunder]

Mechanic, huh. You spoken to Stark? He's got a workshop up in Quiet.

Video

[thegreatninja]

I am Yuffie Kisagrai and my specialty is being awesome!

[No Yuffie...]

[enthunder]

You might want to compete for the 'greatest ninja' specialty before Edge thinks you've defaulted.
