Oops, Did I Do That?
WHO: Tommy Shepherd, OTA
WHERE: Network, Caves, Beach
WHAT: Tommy reacting to mintpocalypse, exploring a cave, and being TOO energetic
WHEN: Friday Oct 15th and Saturday Oct 16th
WARNINGS: n/a
Network - Friday Morning
this is so absolutely and completely not my fault at all so anyone who says so is an absolute liar
Network - Saturday Morning
okay but serious when am I getting my reward for a creative way of finding the beach?
Caves
So, hey, this was a thing. Tommy hadn't meant to, yanno, cover the whole damn place in mint. None of the species were supposed to be that bad, right? Not the earth ones. Maybe it was something about this world. What he knew is that he felt like shit on Friday morning. And then a lot more relaxed as he woke and found his way along the path on Saturday, a blur of motion and a whoop of joy as he found the ocean. Of course he took the moment to take credit before starting to explore. Not in the waves, not at all. No, Tommy instead heads along the shore until he finds a cave.
Tommy never would have considered his power related to energy, which is a mistake. If he had, he might have thought twice when he was using his phone as a light and it was SO bright. Then again, he wouldn't have put two and two together anyway. Just mused how it was interesting that the tunnel kept getting brighter rather than darker the further in he went. And if he had a sense of time like that of a normal human, he'd definitely have noticed how weird it was that the tunnel was passing by so quickly. As it was, Tommy was rushing through the caves at a break-neck pace, his hair shining with a soft white glow, and in the air behind him there was a lingering after image of white-green light. A pale mint trailing after him. Amusing, right?
So Tommy darts around, building up a charge, and not realizing that he might not be alone.
Beach
His body is screaming with energy, and there is so much that Tommy wants to do. He's well fed and he feels like he can take on the world. Probably can actually. He's got energy here, too much energy. Which means only one thing. Time for some damn FUN. He moves quickly, a burst of pale-mint colored light racing over the water, over the waves. And, when he realizes that there's a serious trail of light following him, Tommy's soon drawing patterns all over the waves, enjoying the way the light lingers and the shapes follow after him. His fingers trace his name in the air like the residual light of a sparkler, and his laughter follows him easily.
Then there he is, back on the shore, sparks dancing off his feet and hitting the sand, not that he notices. Instead he's busy chasing after the lobster-like creatures. Could probably eat those, right?
And when it's all done the young man, hair shining with an undeniable pale white light, eyes glowing green, stretched out on the sand and considering the sky. Nice. New thought, more time in the cave, because he's been feeling amazing ever since he went there.

Steve is smiling though as he picks up a smooth shell that's washed up and skips it across the calm sea. A lobster is bravely coming forward so the next shell gets tossed harmlessly that way to scare it off. Steve leans back and glances at the sky.
"Maybe Billy'll like it better."
no subject
What? It seems like a fair thing to throw at the other man. And he smirks. Yeah, Billy probably would like it better, and Tommy doesn't really know how to deal with that. Because his brother would use it, and he's LIKE it. Jerk.
no subject
Remember Steve was bullied daily from five years old to twenty. He's heard a lot better stuff than just Shields McGee.
no subject
And the nickname wasn't meant as bullying. It was... an identification thing. After all, his name was Thomas Shepherd. And he'd NEVER call himself that. He hated 'Thomas' because of the people who gave it to him.
no subject
He doesn't take the short temper seriously because he's talked to Tommy enough by now to know better. "What other nicknames have you been giving out? Everyone on your ship got one?"
no subject
"Not everyone. Names gotta be right. But there's Cap Sparkles and Cap Scruffy. Vanilla Scruffy too. Hawkass. Party-Guy. Space-Shatner. I don't know. Names just happen."
For someone who hangs out with Vision a lot, and Wanda, he DOESN'T have one for them. That he gives.
