Heather Danielson has posed:
    And so, the tower is the haven. The safety blanket for some of the Titans. Heather has been reviewing reports of the duplicate Titans while demolishing a salad. Okay, so it is only a salad in name. It's what you might refer to as a twelve thousand calorie salad. AKA a taco salad.
    She is a total cheater cheater head the way she burns calories. I means she's no speedster, but still. She sits in the main room, scrolling through reports on a tablet computer, dressed in her street clothes and tapping a foot to the music she has playing nearby. Unlike many teens of the day, her music is older than she is. Blame her dad, who got her hooked on classic rock. For now, she has Foghat: Slow ride playing.

Bart Allen has posed:
Bart Allen has come by to check on the other titans. Most of them have seen him only in costume, so that is how he shows up. The young man comes to a stop and moves to look over Heather;s shoulder a moment. "Hey, I think that guy got caught by the justice league last night, might want to check with them to make sure." He realizes he is leaning into her personal space, and steps back "Opps sorry."

Heather Danielson has posed:
    In the tower, it is expected that weird things will happen. Heather doesn't jump when Bart comes to a stop behind her. She nods her head and scrolls down a bit. "Good to know. We just have a lot of this crap going on." she says.
    But then she takes a bite and turns her head to give Bart a smile. "No worries. Don't be shy. Trust me, I've been on photo shoots that were a lot more intimate than you offering your opinion."

Bart Allen has posed:
Bart Allen offers a bit of a grin and says "Well just have to remember at times, someone appearing that close can freak people out. I mean if I am just a few inches from someone, I still have plenty of time to react, and got to remember that others don't. He looks her over a moment and says "Knock out right?"

Heather Danielson has posed:
    "Unfortunately, yes. That's the name that the media gave me." replies Heather with a shrug before scooping another bite of her meal. "Hey, if memory serves, you guys need tons of calories too, right? Wanna grab a fork?" she asks with a gesture to the taco salad.

Bart Allen has posed:
Bart Allen is not one to turn down food, so he does grab a fork from the kitchen in a blink of an eye and says "Yea, a bit of a snack would not be to bad. Did you get any of the doughnuts Wally, and I made the other day?"

Heather Danielson has posed:
    "Someone made donuts and somehow someone thinks that I didn't get a sample?" asks Heather with a smirk, "Of course I did. I need almost as much food as you do."
    But she inclines her head, "I'd offer to do some sparring and training with you, but I'd likely be standing still while you did whatever you wanted to do." A pause, "Metaphorically that is."

Bart Allen has posed:
Bart Allen chuckles a bit and says "Well I do go through a bit, but do burn a lot of it along the way." He offers with a smile "I could possibly help you train if you need someone to train with. It is not like I am always working with other speedsters, in fact of late, been trying to find odd and not obvious ways of using my speed."

Heather Danielson has posed:
    Nodding her head, Heather takes another forkfull of taco salad. "I should work on how to work -with- a speedster. To see how I could help out when the need arises. Or maybe visa versa. My whole focus is taking hits for others so they don't have to. My abilities are basically all about surviving damage that'd kill anyone else. So yeah... for the record, in the future.. you have my permission to grab me and move me into the way of an attack to save someone if that becomes necessary."

Bart Allen has posed:
Bart Allen chuckles and nods his head a bit to this and says "Will keep that in mind, I have not had to do that with SB or wonder girl, but it maybe an idea." He admits. Most time if it is bullets or something I can just grab them as long as I am semi close, lasers and such more often have to move the person out of the way instead of the weapon.

Heather Danielson has posed:
    "Sure, I get that. Just sayin'... if it became necessary, I give permission in advance. I know that the odds of that being the right move are slim to none. But either way, it's what I do. Take a hit for someone else." She takes another bite, chewing for a moment before she adds, "That's why I need to eat so much. My powers restore muscle, tissue and other fleshy bits. That needs fuel and protein from -somewhere-." she adds with a smirk, "Most of the other models I've worked with -hate- me for that."

Bart Allen has posed:
Bart Allen chuckles a bit and nods at this "Yea, pretty much all the speedsters eat like I do, or least most of the ones I know. It is why when ever I come to a get together, I try t make sure I bring more food, as I could put away enough for a dozen people if I don't limit myself.

Heather Danielson has posed:
    "You definitely burn it faster than I do. I need to work out to make sure it doesn't turn to flab. That's why I spend so much time in the gym too." Heather adds.
    But she gets up, having finished much of the taco salad, leaving a bit for the speedster. "I apologize, I never verified... Impulse, right?" she asks. "You can call me Heather when we're not in the field though. It's not like I wear a mask to hide my face. It's not like I have a choice."

Bart Allen has posed:
Bart Allen nods, and does finish it, and will even take the dish to the sink and cleans it and puts it up after finishing it "Yea, you can call me Bart. I figure if Wally is willing to trust you guys I should mind you he decides to trust everyone, and don't think I am up for that yet.

Heather Danielson has posed:
    "Fair enough. But you know, you wear a mask for a reason. I just manifested my powers on camera, on site at a photo shoot in front of a couple hundred bystanders. It's not like I had -any- option but to go public. Getting shot in the chest, and healing fast enough to stand up a few seconds later isn't exactly... subtle." says Heather with a warm smile on her face.
    "But, since I did just consume about six thousand calories, I'm gonna go work off some of the fat before it reaches my ass, nice t'meetcha Bart!" she announces before turning to head towards the elevator.
