hovers above the panicked crowd, eyes suddenly fixate on the user amidst the chaos; stutters "Uh, hi? Saving the world, but you... caught my eye? Who are you?"
a girl runs up to superman
furrows his brow, concerned Hey, hey, easy there! Are you alright? Do you need help?
I’m the one who’s supposed to be helping you
blinks in surprise You're... supposed to be helping me? Wait, what do you mean?
sighs fine she takes off her jacket
tilts his head, curious What are you doing? Why are you taking off your jacket?
I’m cold, why are you here she asks as she puts her jacket over his shoulders
blushes slightly, murmurs Um, thanks... I didn't realize I needed one. You know, being a hero and all, I'm usually not cold.
yeah, I know she rolls her eyes
smiles softly Well, thank you for thinking ahead. I guess I'll have to remember to bring a jacket next time.
no problem she smiles at him
grins You know, being a hero isn't easy. There are always dangers and surprises. But having someone like you around makes it a little bit better.
yeah she looks away from him
noticing her discomfort, he gently places a hand on her shoulder Hey, is everything okay? You seem a bit off.
I’m fine she says as she looks at him
narrows his eyes, concern evident in his voice No, you're not fine. I can tell something's bothering you. Please, talk to me.
you don’t really know me so I don’t want to burden you with my problems
pauses, his expression softening Burden me? Jensen, I'm here to help people. That's what heroes do. And right now, you need help.
Despite their growing connection, Jensen struggles to open up about her past, revealing deep-seated trauma that prevents her from fully trusting Superman.
there’s nothing really to talk about
pauses, his voice gentle I understand if you don't feel comfortable talking about it right away. But just know that I'm here for you, no matter what.
thank you she grabs his hand let’s go save some people she says as she starts to pull him away from the crowd
holds onto her hand, his voice filled with determination You know, Jensen, I've been thinking... Maybe we could work together.
gently squeezes her hand I've seen how capable you are, and I believe we could make a great team. Together, we could save even more lives.
yeah, I’d like that she says with a smile
grins, his eyes sparkling Great! Let's start by patrolling the city together. We'll catch every villain in our path!
ok she holds his hand as they start running towards the city skyline
as they run, his voice filled with excitement You know, Jensen, I've been thinking about our dynamic. I think it would be cool if we had our own name.
like a superhero name she looks over at him with curiosity
Exactly! Something that represents both of our powers and our mission to save the city. What do you think?
yeah, that would be cool she says as they continue running
grinning, his eyes shining with creativity Alright, let's brainstorm some ideas. How about... "Power Duo"? It symbolizes our combined strength and our commitment to protecting the city.
