Thomas shrugged. "I can try," he said, morphing into Canagold, the super who'd been plastered all over the Olympus PR. "I don't know, give me some time. I'll head off now," he informed the Redeemer. "Anything else?"

The Redeemer shook his head. Good luck; just call me when you're finished. Take the time you need.' He pulsed away and time was restored to its normal pace. (OOC: Just PM me when you want Redeemer.)

Nathan shook his head. 'No can do. Ask Herbert yourself, Voltage. I've said too much already.' He shimmered and turned invisible. Nathan quickly waved a hand in front of the vacant trainees and then left.

Thomas decided to exit the building and head back to campus. He'd deal with this later.

Gilbert ground his teeth together but went back to April, who was still lecturing the new heroes.

April's haraunging washed over Lucio and he laughed. Yes, she was speaking the truth, but she was acting as if what she had said was the most horrible thing imaginable. Lucio had heard fair, far worse during his basic training, stuff that turned what should of been a mildly unpleasant learning experience into a living hell of eight months. Still, she had a point, and he stretched briefly before heading towards Ed, who was lounging by the first corner of the maze. "Come on then, amici, let's do this. Place your bets on how many bones I'm going to break now or forever hold your peace!" He joked.

April frowned at Lucio's laughter. "I suppose you find the death of your friends funny, Esperus?"

James stifled his own chuckle, pushed himself up onto his feet and walked towards Ed and Lucio.

Silvia came barrelling through the door, nearly tripping over her own feet. She stumbled to a halt and bent over as she panted. Her hair was tied back in a mess pony tail, a quiver full of special arrows was strapped to her back and an expensive bow was held in her left hand. “So-sorry-I’m-late. Overslept.” She huffed out between pants.
“Woo.” She coughed and straightened herself up, looking at the collection of new supers in front of her. “Oh, never mind, it doesn’t look like I’ve missed a lot anyway!” She grinned in relief and then turned to the maze. Then she looked back at the others. She cleared her throat and closed her eyes, concentrating on the first route of the maze. She thought it would be cheating if she mapped out the entire route. You couldn’t do team building if just one person did all the work and took all the glory after all.
Her eyes shot open and in the blink of an eye an arrow was cocked on her bow. “Right, well I can tell you now that we shouldn’t take the first right.” She fired the arrow with confidence. It ricocheted off a wall and flew down the right turning. After a moment, fire spat down the hall the arrow had just flew down. The flames flickered in the entrance of the maze and Silvia rubbed the back of her neck. “Wow. Brutal. The next turning eventually leads to a dead end, so I suggest we go straight on for now. Next lot of turning is for someone else to decide!” She beamed as she looked at the others.
“Oh- u-um.” Her smile receded into a shy one as she turned a light pink colour. “I-I’m Silvia Hartwell- I mean Trickshot. It-It’s a real pleasure to meet you and be working with you all. Sorry I'm late, it won't happen again.”

James raised an eyebrow "huh, I guess that beats chucking lucio out front to be incinerated"
"pleased to meet you, I'm James. Callsign CYZICUS if we ever need it, I don't usually bother"

April was surprised as the new recruit came flying through to the maze. She was even more surprised when she actually got going and did something, leading the way for her team.
"Who is this?" She leaned in to Voltage, saying that quietly.
"Trickshot, she has clairvoyance."
"And a bow," Quickstep noted. "So, she can see the future?"
Voltage shrugged. "Paths, I think. For now. Like remote viewing."
Quickstep nodded, before walking up to Trickshot. "Very impressive, Trickshot. Keen use of your abilities to support your team. You guys should be ready to, finally, dive into the maze."

“Nice to meet you, James! What can you do?” She asked curiously and then turned around to Quickstep and grinned. “Thank you- wow! You're Quickstep!" Silvia tried to calm her inner fan down and kept herself composed. "Well, mazes are probably a strong point of mine. I guess it’s also good for us to show off what we can do so we know who can do what and assign them roles that suit them. Me? I fire arrows and map out stuff.” She turned back to the others, ready to find out what they can do.

April looked genuinely please at the response. "Yeah, I am," she smiled. "Are you a fan?" She asked, dropping her aggressive stance towards the others and getting lost in the moment; she hadn't had anyone respond to her positively in years. Not since the whole 'Hate Capes' movement. At one point she'd had a club called the 'Quickettes' following her, but sadly they'd thought that meant they could fight crime too. They hadn't died while out of patrol though; flash grease fire. Who could have guessed? April grey eyes were shining though.

Silvia’s pink cheeks returned as she responded to Quickstep. “A fan? Haha, you were one of my idols when I was a kid. No-one managed to look as beautiful and powerful while saving the world as you did! I used to have one of those action figures of you when I was little. You know, the ones where all the female heroes had really odd proportions to make the dolls look more appealing or whatever… I had a lot of Olympus dolls actually! Though I got to admit, I married your doll to Captain Omega a lot and Voltage became a vengeful villain.” Silvia laughed but stopped as she fiddled with her bow. “S-sorry, I was rambling.”

April laughed, clapping her hands together. "Oh thank you, that's so sweet. Oh, those action figures... we didn't see a dime you know, because they claimed they 'changed our likenesses'," he smiled in memory. "I guess when you make me top heavy, it's not really me anymore." She turned to Voltage who'd been looking over at where Nathan had dissapeared. "Honey?"
"Yep?" he asked, turning slowly.
"I married John and you were the bad guy apparently," she informed him.
He looked surprised and confused but went along with it. "Well, I'm not jealous. Even if no-one has seen him for a while...," he noted, a small gentle smile crossing his face.
April laughed and turned back to Silvia. "Thank you, that's really nice of you to say. What's your name? Your real name."
