Brainiac 5 bristled at the 'drooling fanboy' comment, but the rest of what Elle was saying sank in and he paused, eyeing her curiously. "I can assure you that Superman is not fictional. At least, not where I'm from. He's widely considered the greatest hero of your time, if not ever. Besides, you yourself have powers, why would you think that superheroes are purely the realm of fiction?"
Of course it was uncertain as to if Elle would even answer that question, judging from her track record with his other questions. In particular she seemed to want to avoid talking about her behaviour; he made note of that in case it became useful later. She also didn't appear to know anything about how he came to be here at all, which was unfortunate. He'd have to search for answers on his own then. Presuming he actually managed to make contact with anyone other than Elle that is.
"As I already told you," Brainiac 5 began as patiently as possible given the circumstances, "I am actually a Coluan. Normally I'm mostly cybernetic, but for some reason I appear to have become human. It's somewhat... disconcerting."
