Later that day, Terry was standing outside the doors of the ballroom he’d almost never had any occasion to enter. Two familiar patches stood guard outside the tall doors, pulled from the Evolution Chamber for the event.

“Tom. Jerry,” he said with a nod. He’d taken to calling them that and they hadn’t protested, so the names had stuck. He flared his aura out in greeting and was pleased that they acknowledged his presence with the return gesture. There was no series of images like when he’d linked up with Hoping Tree, but there was no sense of malaise or hate there either, which he counted as a win.

At his side, he felt Mesmer regard him with an inquisitive look, and he shrugged in reply.

“I like humanizing them and they don’t seem to mind.”

The older revenant tilted his head in thought, then shrugged. “I’m told Team Dallas and the Council’s representatives have already arrived.” A subtle frown shifted across his lips. “Dancer is tardy.”

A thrill filled him, offset by his nervousness. He’d never enjoyed being the center of attention, and the fiasco that was the parade only solidified that reluctance inside him. But he was excited to meet Team Dallas and whoever the Council sent.

Dancer arriving later was just the cherry on top.

“Who’d the Council send?” he asked.

Please be Lady. Please be Lady. He couldn’t deny that there were a bevy of reasons he was hoping for Lady—one of those being that she was incredibly beautiful. There’d been a phase where it was her on his wall rather than the Siren. He’d rotated them out as his obsession with the Knights of Sol had intensified. But he’d always loved Lady, for boyish reasons, as well as for her Class—she was one of the only A-rank Amplifiers in the region.

“Tinker’s come representing their S-ranks,” Mesmer replied.

That didn’t completely disappoint Terry, but it also didn’t wow him. Tinker had a fascinating powerset as an S-ranked Artificer. But his reputation was that he enjoyed his gadgets more than people. Terry couldn’t blame him, but he doubted the powerful super would make for very interesting conversation.

“For the As—” Terry didn’t quite hold his breath, but Mesmer’s eyes narrowed as he picked up Terry’s obvious attention. “—they sent Lady.”

An involuntary smile split his face and he bit his lip to try and reign it in. Mesmer’s eyebrows rose, but he had the grace not to embarrass Terry.

“For the Bs, they sent Surf.”

That surprised Terry a bit. The B-ranked Elementalist was new to the Council—perhaps they were using this as an opportunity to introduce him to the region’s powerful supers?

“Team Dallas sent Hopper for the S-ranks—” Terry’s eyes widened at that. Hopper was one of the only S-ranked Travelers categorized on HeroWatch—a rarity among an already rare Class. He found himself forgetting all about Lady as his excitement to ask Hopper about her Class replaced the childish infatuation for the A-ranked Amplifier. Plus, he knew Tania would be dying to grill the super who stood at the pinnacle of the Class she hoped to Awaken to.
