[If there's one thing Shayera liked about the Earth Sector, it was the numerous artworks in the area. She was no art collector back home, but that doesn't mean she can't appreciate it all the same. She's also been feeling a tad lonely lately, having so many people who don't specifically know her around, so meeting new people sounds like the best course of action right now. Which is why she walks over to Traci when she hears her admiring the art.] No kidding. This isn't really the kind of art you see everyday, is it?

Definitely not, especially by Earth standards. Pretty sure some of the Classicists would enjoy seeing them. [She says that staring at the statue first, before she turns to the person who spoke to make sure she was actually talking to her. Without the armor, she can't recognize her exactly but...]

Whoa. Those are a nice set of wings!

Yeah. I've seen some art from Earth, and it doesn't compare to this. [She's not surprised to have someone point out her wings, but it does make her smile to have someone compliment them.] Thanks. I try to take care of them.

-- You're from Earth! [Yes, this is the first thing she's picking up. Now to see if she can place a name to the face.] Not someone from my world, are you? I don't know a lot of winged people where I'm from, not personally at least.

That's right. I'm a member of the Justice League. [Just giving her name out right now should be enough to tell if this girl is from her universe or not.] Last I checked, I was the only Thanagarian on Earth. Name's Shayera.

[Justice League. Wings. Girl. Not Hawkman. Wasn't she JSA? Oh right, alternate universes, that must be it. She's already met Kara from another dimension.]

Hawkgirl, right? [She's guessing, but that's the most prominent character she could think of. Hopefully not offending anyone.] There seems to be a bunch of guys from the superhero community here. [Though she does reach a hand out for a handshake.] The name's Traci.

[One of these days, she'll just walk around with a sign that says "Shayera, not Hawkgirl". Today is not that day.] Just call me Shayera, I stopped going by Hawkgirl a while ago. [She's slightly annoyed, but partially used to it by now.] We won't have any problems starting our own Justice League here, by the looks of it.

[Shayera takes the hand, giving it a firm shake in return.] Nice to meet you, Traci.

If the kedan would want one. I mean, if a League appears, the scale they'll need to protect is a lot smaller than the whole world.

[She smiles though, with the correction, going with it. She just needed confirmation anyway.] Nice to meet you too, Shayera.

It's more like one city. But with everything that's been happening, having some sort of team would help things. Unless something like that's already been established. [It wouldn't surprise her at all.] So how long've you been on the turtle?

I'm guessing there is, but they haven't had any reason to be active. An organized group would be nice, but who would lead it?

[Oh, that question.] A few months, give or take two to three of them. Surprisingly eventful around here, though I think it may just be the timing of everything.

The League back home had shared leadership between the founding seven members, that worked out pretty well. [It also prevented a tie, and that came in handy quite often.]

So it's actually possible to be here that long. Someone told me it does get plenty active around here.

Like a council? You're going to need people with very differing opinions for that.

Long? Hardly. You should ask the others, there's a few who's been here for over a year, maybe more. I never checked who.

Something like that. There should be plenty of people here that have diverse opinions, right?

... you're kidding me. A whole year? [Sure, she wasn't in too much of a rush to get home, but everyone she left behind...]

Any willing to lead a team of heroes though?

And yeah, a whole year. Or more. I guess whatever threat this place has hasn't been eliminated yet by their standards.

Hopefully. I've met some people from the League here already, don't see why they wouldn't want to start one up.

Wars don't usually end in a year, from what I've seen. [And she's been in one, so she's know her shit.]

Which ones did you meet? [She hasn't exactly kept track of the superdudes.]

Not big wars no. I imagine those take a lot longer than most people would prefer. Same here, though on the plus side, we're not in constant turmoil.

Superman, Batman, Black Canary, and Aquaman. [And Supergirl, but she's from a different universe.]

Yeah, it just pops up like a fungus on occasion. It could be a lot worse.

Haven't actually seen Batman myself. [She pauses to consider this. She knew he was there though, he always was. Like that little fungus that grows everywhere and you don't know how. Like the mini-turmoils. She just hasn't actually seen him.]

When I was told that we weren't liked by the locals, I was expecting more civil unrest. They've been very welcoming, as far as I'm concerned, considering the issues with resources prior to all this.

It's hard to see him anyway, unless he's looking for you. [What with his ninja and secretive skills and all.]

I've seen a few who are cold to me, but nothing like them attacking me or anything. It's more like a case of someone invading their personal space, and that's understandable with all this.

Must have taken years of practice to do that, unless that's his natural state.

It's exactly that! I mean, they're cold, but they haven't outright shunned me from anything, so I try to give back what I take.

I'm almost a hundred percent sure it's his default state.

They only seem to get ticked off if we do something to give them a reason. Other than that, they tolerate us, so I'm not about to do anything stupid to change that.

That-- is creepy. [No way she'd want that as a default state.]

Not everyone shares that philosophy, but then again I think they spend more time trying to annoy each other than the locals.

That's Batman, better get used to it. [Only he would want that default state.]

Because both of those options sound perfectly logical. [The sarcasm is strong in this one.]

Are you used to it, then?

[That earns a bit of a smile from her, because really. The sarcasm is accurate.] Beats me how their heads work. Then again, I suppose not being used to being tossed in weird situations does that.

You have no idea. [She works with the guy most of the time, it's all in a day for her.]

Well, hopefully they'll get used to "weird situations" here. [And here Shayera thought everyone was abnormal.]
