Of course you realise that, while in Canada, all visiting posessors of superpowers must register them with the Superhuman Resources Directorate of Agricultire Canada and, if in Quebec, with _La régie des superhéros et pouvoirs surhumains_…

You can make him register, but you’ll never make him hand them over. _Never_! Bwahahahaha!

Oh, we’re quite aware that they may not be capable of being handed over. We just want to… know where they are.

Stories! Stories!  
Welcome **EtherealPinkofFreakness** (wait that didn’t come out right, did it?)!  
Hey, is this the most thoroughly endoped family we’ve got? Lots of spouse-spouse combos (married and otherwise) and quite a few parent-child duets. Any foursomes?

Of either type :D?

Interesting that this thread is devoted to the arrival of **EtherealFreakOfPinkness** , but she has yet to post in it, while **DarkButterfly** has already made an appearance even after announcing her own enrollment elsewhere in this forum. A clue to their respective personalities, perhaps?

Anyway, welcome to both of you two older daughters of **norinew** , and an advance greeting to the youngest. How long before she’s eligible to post here?

Well, the youngest is only six, so it’ll be a while before you see her around. The good news is, she’s already a seasoned attendee of Dopefests, and already has a ‘username’; all she needs now is seven more birthdays. 😉

I don’t know how upset you can get with her for that, seeing as how you yourself signed your very first post here (over in ATMB) with your RL name. Duh. 😃
