//The signs for friendship are pretty easy to follow for most of these guys, though with some it can be more subtle.

//Archie’s probably the easiest to pick up on. She’s a massive extrovert as it is, so if she wants to talk to you, she’ll talk to you, and that’s just how it’s gonna work. If she thinks you’ll understand technology jokes, she’ll probably send you some random memes she’s come up with or start texting you about some shit she did with her mentor. That last one she may text you about regardless though, but either way, if she wants to be your friend, you’ll know. Trust me.

//Richard is also one of the easier ones to pick up, at least to an extent. If he wants to talk to you, he will. Sure he may sound a tad formal at first, but that’s mostly due to him being on the job so often. It’s easy for him to unwind though; just give him a moment. But yeah, he’ll initiate conversations without all that many issues, though not nearly as often as Archie. Man’s got a job to do.

//Psyche can be trickier to pick up on, but it’s possible. He doesn’t initiate many conversations, but if he sees someone he knows and likes, there’s a chance he’ll shoot them a wave or telepathically call out to them if they know about his powers. Other signs is him just generally hanging around you, especially in crowds. Sure he may be silent, but that’s not a bad thing; he just likes existing around others in comfortable silence.

//Jupiter is a bit tricky sometimes. If he wants to speak with you, he may cling to you on accident, only to then suddenly withdraw at random times. This is mostly due to his nervousness; he doesn’t know what’s too much affection or too little, so he bounces back and forth between extremes a lot, which can send mixed signals. Otherwise, he’s very similar to Psycho, though he’s definitely chattier than him. Doesn’t mean he doesn’t like existing in a comfortable silence though. But hey. If that’s not enough, then keep track of how he reacts if you get physically close to him. If he’s relaxed, he trusts you a lot. If he’s tense and backs away, well, he probably doesn’t hate you. He just wants to make sure you’re safe.

“Did someone say Icon for Hire?”

“Dog! German shepherds are the best!”

(”I’ve never thought about it, but rodents are nice. I’d like to keep one as a pet one day.”)

“Hm... I’ve never really thought about it, but I do know that for a pet, I wouldn’t want something that would bother me too much or be a hassle to take care of... Turtles would be nice. Or fish. I’d have to clean the tanks though, but marine life is still fascinating, so I guess you have my answer.”

“I love all animals, but cats are the best. Big cats I mean, like cougars. Too bad I can’t keep a cougar as a pet though. They belong in the wild.”

“Ooh I know! Wait- No- Yes! Superhero by Simon Curtis! That’s totally me right there!“

“Um...I can’t pick a song, but a perfect moment I think would be when I got my hoodie and all of my other clothes! That day was amazing!“

(”...Song to describe me... I don’t have anything, sorry. I guess a perfect picture moment would be the time my mother and I went out for ice cream... It’s a simple memory, and I’ve done it more than once, but it’s a nice one. I wish we could do that more...”)

“Opening up this school was a picture perfect moment for me. I’m glad that me and my team have been able to meet and help these extraordinary people.“

“Heard some brats were talking smack about one of my favorite children. I’ll fight them.”

Is this a late response to that one comic response for Nicole? Yes. Is this being posted anyway? Yes.
