 Hey, all you wild animals! If we haven't met before, the name's Della Duck. Now, I'm not tooootally sure if the calendar here really aligns with what time it was back home or even if time has real meaning at all here BUT ANYWAY! Far as I'm concerned, today is today and today is my birthday!

Now don't go worrying about parties and presents and stuff - I just got here, so we're all kinda too new for that. Instead, what I want is to make a whole bunch of new friends. So if you're up to it, give me three interesting details about you! I'll go first.

1. I'm a mom! I've got three boys, triplets, and they're the best.
2. I've got a twin brother! So technically it's his birthday too, and once again I missed out on the chance to celebrate with him... haaaa ha ha.
3. I'm an ace pilot! If it flies, I can control it!

Now it's your turn, give me the deets!

Oh hey, wow! Happy birthday! I'll have to remember that for next time.

[ Just in case they're stuck here that long.

Now the question is what she's willing to share. ]

1. I go to school in New York, and am a sophomore in high school.
2. I'm an only child, and my parents are back home in Illinois.
3. I...have an ability which lets me phase through objects.

[ People seem really nice here, so hopefully that admission won't come back to bite her. ]

[sos_pilot]

New York, that's pretty sweet.

... Wait, what was that last thing?

[goingthroughaphase]

[ Yeah, she thought that was going to be the focus here. ]

I have a special ability that lets me phase through things. I can pass through objects, or people, by rearranging my molecules to pass through the spaces between atoms.

[ While she knows that there are other people on the train with powers, she still feels a bit nervous about talking about her own, worried about how someone might react. ]

[sos_pilot]

Is there any way you can show me RIGHT NOW?

[ Cause that sounds cool as heck, dude!!! ]

[goingthroughaphase]

Uh... [ She glances around. ] Just a sec.

[ Luckily she's in her sleeper cabin, and so she's able to grab the purple hoodie at the end of her bed. Then she holds it up to the screen, showing that it's a normal hoodie. Making sure to keep it spread as best as she could, she then phases her hand through until it's coming out of the chest of the hoodie towards the screen. ]

[sos_pilot]

That.

was.

AWESOME.

You are officially one of the coolest people on this whole train!

Do it again, do it again!

[ Della how old are you... no seriously nobody knows ]

[goingthroughaphase]

[ She can't help an amused laugh. ] Okay.

[ Thinking for a moment, she then readjusts the screen a bit so Della can see her bed a bit better. Then she phases her hand through the pillow, and after a moment pulls her hand back, holding her SCA wristband that had been hidden underneath. ]

[sos_pilot]

Woo-hoo! That was amazing! YOU are amazing! You could be the world's best thief or spy or... anything!

[goingthroughaphase]

[ She blushes a bit. ]

Uh, thanks...I dunno about being a thief or spy, though. I do try to use my powers to help people.

[sos_pilot]

Even better! You're a superhero!

[goingthroughaphase]

[ She laughs softly. ]

Well, something like that, I guess?

[ Kitty stop being so modest. ]

[sos_pilot]

Man, this train is full of superheroes. And none of that "gotta hide my identity" drama, too!

[goingthroughaphase]

Oh really? There are other superheroes on the train too?

[ She knew a few other people with powers. But it was always nice to meet others. ]

[sos_pilot]

So they say! And they're out and loud and proud! We've only got the one, back in Duckburg.

[goingthroughaphase]

Wow...I didn't realize there were others here.

[ She'll have to try to meet more of them. ]

What's the superhero where you're from like?

[sos_pilot]

He's called Gizmoduck. He's basically a guy in a robot-suit, but he doesn't do a half-bad job!

[goingthroughaphase]

Gizmoduck, huh?

[ Is everything duck-themed where she's from? ]

That's pretty cool, though. I'm guessing he has a lot of fancy gadgets in his suit?

[sos_pilot]

Absolutely! Laser beams, jet pack, pie-throwing arms...

[goingthroughaphase]

[ ...what was that last one? ]

Are...are pie-throwing arms really useful?

[sos_pilot]

Apparently! And they're pretty delicious too.

[goingthroughaphase]

[ It's like something out of a cartoon. ]

Well, that's good, I guess.

[ At least bad guys will be hit by something tasty. ]

[sos_pilot]

[ Be careful with that 4th wall, Kitty, you just might break it. ]

But compared to all the superheroes here, now I'm wondering if it's too much for one guy. Uncle Scrooge appreciates people looking out for the city while we're away, but still, that's a lot of trouble on a day to day basis.

[goingthroughaphase]

Hmm...that is a lot of pressure to put on one person. I know I wouldn't be able to do any of these things on my own. Having a team, or even just someone else, can really help.

[sos_pilot]

When I get back, I should have the family think up ways to help him out! Maybe scour the globe to find him some allies, get a group going. Like... the Justice Ducks!

... Nah, that's lame. I'll let them name it.

[goingthroughaphase]

[ She laughs softly. ]

Well, here's hoping he'll be able to find some good allies.
