This is Shayera. Leave a message, and I'll make sure to get back to you when I can.

Wally was one of the founding members?

[Superhero-wise, everyone's there. Identity-wise...Barry frowns, tilts his head.]

And Hal wasn't there?

[wingedwarrior]

I know, hard to believe. He still wants to paint his logo on his chair in the conference room.

[And there's that name again. Apparently, having a John Stewart is rare.] I've never met him before he showed up here.

[bolthead]

I got to paint my logo on my chair.

[His tone is only slightly smug. Note to self: rub that in alternate-Wally's face if/when they ever meet. Things to do after he figures this all out.

All things considered, he's not overly bothered by the fact that neither he nor Hal seem to exist in whatever universe Shayera comes from. Sure it's a little disconcerting, but it's not his universe and the Earth is still being protected by a Justice League.]

That's probably for the best. [Anyway.] But hopefully I can give you about as good a run for your money as Wally did.

[Personally, he's thinking better.]

[wingedwarrior]

You better not tell Wally, he'll get jealous. [By which she means of course you should tell him. She'd love to see that.

Hearing about more Flashes in a different universe? Not bothering her. There could be plenty of worse things to hear about, like an army of Lex Luthor.] I'll be the judge of that, thanks. [WALLY WEST HOLDS A SPECIAL PLACE IN HER HEART and she will never tell anyone that.] You want to spar in or out of costume?

[bolthead]

[Wally should hold a special place in everyone's heart tbh.

Barry looks down at his uniform, then looks back up at Shayera.]

Depends. How fast am I allowed to go?

[wingedwarrior]

Out of costume? Only as fast as a normal human. In it? As fast as you want. [[And she'll still kick your ass.]

[bolthead]

[Well that's a given, Shayera. He taps his chin, weighing the pros and cons of each option before finally de-costuming a second later. With his speed he's nigh untouchable, but Barry's always been pragmatic. If something happens and he loses his speed, he wants to be at least remotely prepared.]

Out of costume it is then.

[wingedwarrior]

All right. So, just so I have a vague idea of how much to teach you, you ever done any sort of martial arts before? Aside from brawling with villains, of course. [That way, she can determine whether or not she should skip the basics, or start with those.]

[bolthead]

[HAHA...ha...........he looks extremely embarrassed at the question.]

No. I never really found the time. [HELP HIM, SHAYERA SENPAI.]

[wingedwarrior]

Now that's just ironic. (GET IT, CAUSE YOU'RE FAST...) The basics it is, then.

(Which she explains and demonstrates here because it's ass o'clock and I don't know martial art.)
