We were not strangers, but there was a journey

[nottheleader.livejournal.com]

Characters: Aqualad/Kaldur'ahm, Artemis, Kid Flash/Wally, Miss Martian/M'gann, Robin/Dick, Superboy/Conner

Location: On the way to Esthar
Rating: T for action/violence (and C for potential Crack).
Open/Closed/Etc: Closed
Summary: While off to see the wizards scientists in Esthar, The Team encounters a few rocky spots, nothing serious. Powers acting up, losing part of the team, a dinosaur--no big deal.

Kaldur has not been exactly sure how useful this trip would be, as he believed that if others had been here for so long, then they would have asked the very questions his friends wanted to ask. At the same time, a chance is still a chance--and he would not have dissuaded them either way, so it was better to join them than deny them--and so here they were, about to strike out on this new journey.

But the fact that their powers were being affected by whatever disruption was occurring left him wondering if their timing could have been better.

{OOC: The events in this log will proceed in separate threads for mingling and keeping up with each part.}

"Let's go already! The longer we stick around here, the longer I have to deal with all of these annoying feelings."

Not to mention, everything felt so slooow to him. He was used to the world running a 100mph. Now it's barely crawling by. Plus, he's had more insight into people's emotions than he ever cares to have. Siiigh. Not to mention, a certain someone seemed to inherit his speed, which has left him feeling -veeerrryy-- annoyed.

"I wish I had my Bioship here; it would make the trip a lot easier."

M'gann stood waiting for the rest of the group, a slight flush to her cheeks. She isn't sure why, but recently she'd been feeling rather unwell, even a bit feverish. Nonetheless she tried her best to maintain a smile around her friends, glad that they were all together now.

"Seriously, why couldn't have that been brought here in the time stream as well? Whoever this so called sorceress is, she sucks."

Grumbles and folds his arms across his chest. In the midst of his grumbling, he picks up on the color in her cheek. He can also sense her struggling to try and keep up appearance. The frown on his face disappears and is replaced with a concerned look.

"M'Gann, is everything okay?"

The fact that Wally noticed her current state had M'gann flushing further; she didn't want the others to be concerned. So in an attempt to hide her sickly state, M'gann forced a smile on her lips as she gave a nod in Wally's direction.

"I'm fine, really! It's just been a bit unusually warm in Garden lately, that's all."

Unfortunately for M'gann, or maybe fortunately in her case, there was no hiding how she was feeling from him. The longer he was around her, the easier it was for him to make out how she was feeling. Anyone who was putting that much effort into trying to keep something hidden, was definitely not "okay".

"Yeah, I guess. But It hasn't been -that- hot. Are you sure you're going to be okay for going on the trip? If you get tired, you can let me know and I'll give you a piggy back ride or something."

Wally's concern was appreciated, and it was evident in the way she gave him a warm smile.

"Thanks, Wally. I'll be sure to let you know, but I'm fine for now."

Still has his doubts but lets it go for now. Because, hey, they have adventure awaiting them and he's pretty geeked about it! Plus, if anything else happens, he'll be able to pick up on it.

"Gotcha. I don't know about you, but I'm pretty psyched about this trip. If I can get my hands on some of their equipment or talk to their scientists, I think I can help get them closer to our technology."
