What| Exploring her new surroundings
Where| Observation Deck
When| Post Lantern Plot
Warnings/Notes| None
Superheroes. That was new.
Well, if you wanted to get technical, Overwatch had been as close to superheroes one could get in Ana's world. After all, they had super soldiers, super intelligent apes, cyborg ninjas, some goofball who still thought it was the wild west, among many, many others.
But still, actual superheroes were new. And now Ana was one of them, super powers and all.
Once the situation had been explained to her, about this new reality and the threat of Chronoblivion, it didn't take Ana long to accept joining the Legion. It had been a long time since she'd been in any kind of formal unit, but at the very least the Legion seemed laid back enough she wouldn't have to say 'Sir, yes sir' to anybody any time soon.
After her release from Med Bay, Ana took to wandering around Legion World, quietly stalking the halls to get her bearings. The Anthramite clothiers had tried to convince her to adopt all sorts of different costume designs, but she decided on simply slapping the Legion symbol on the shoulder of her cloak. She wasn't much one for flashy designs. Flashy could get a sniper killed.
After quietly sneaking for what must have been hours, occasionally testing out her new found invisibility powers, she found herself in the observation deck. In her later days in Overwatch, Winston would occasionally tell her what it was like to watch the earth from afar from the Horizon lunar colony, but it didn't really prepare her for the sight. She gripped the rails as she watched the earth spin slowly below.
On a whim, she sat down on the edge of the platform, letting her feet dangle off the edge. This drew a couple curious glances from some nearby staff, but Ana paid them no mind. An experienced sniper felt comfortable with heights, and this was certainly the furthest up she had ever been.
Even if it might seem childish for someone her age, she decided to just enjoy herself for the moment.

Not that she was in bad shape or anything. But being old came with the perk of being able to constantly complain about being old.
"Spider-Woman, huh? I was never big on using code-names even back when half of Overwatch was using them. But they made me pick one to join the Legion, so I guess I go by Wadjet now."
no subject
Because they were all official and stuff.
"Overwatch your old team or something?"
no subject
Unlike a certain brooding super-soldier, Ana didn't really have many hangups reminding herself she used to be a part of a team. Sure, she had issues, but she was still proud of what they had all accomplished together.
"I'm guessing superheroes are more normal where you come from? Even though you could probably classify half of Overwatch as superheroes, I'm still kind of wrapping my head around the idea."
no subject
At least she was a top of their list, or something.
"Police would just love to lock me up and throw away the key. You know how that goes."
no subject
Though it wasn't really much of a laughing matter, she still felt it rather ironic that the world loved Overwatch when the Omnic Crisis first went down, but as soon as people forgot those hard fought battles, any new issue was laid at Overwatch's door as if it was their fault in the first place. She wondered how much of it was honestly how the public felt, and how much of it was media manipulation.
"Let's just say that Overwatch wasn't well regarded right before it got...well. Shut down."
no subject
"Was it true, though? The stuff that people were thinking about your group, I mean."
