1. Change up your fighting style a little. Wield a different kind of gun, or manipulate tech in a way you haven't before, etc.
2. Never underestimate the power of a mask.
3. If they think Telemachus is a dude, let them. You'll get more buy-in that way.

That's what I've got off the top of my head, but we can work on how to distinguish you and your alter-ego over time.

Damn, Iris, I'm surprised [actually a little alarmed] you know all this but it's awesome.

re: 2: I wouldn't even try a second identity if not for the full face helmet. Other imPorts glow in the dark too but I'm pretty sure I'm the only one who lights up in circuits :/

Well, I DID live in Central City.
And happen to be part of the Justice League.
This knowledge comes with the territory. ;)

[cannotrest]

Wait, you're in the Justice League?! That's awesome!

You've been holding out on me :P

tbf, I wasn't supposed to tell anyone. :P

I've been with them for at least half a year now.
Mostly support and research, nothing too major.

[cannotrest]

In that case I'm honored you told me and I promise I won't tell anyone.

And hey, as someone who likes being on the front lines, support and research are still pretty major.

[eloquentness]

I don't mind if you do! My membership just isn't public knowledge. (:

They are! I can't tell you the number of times Blue Beetle or the Flash has relied on something I saw back at HQ.
You're doing what you're good at, so let me help how I can.
That kind of thing.

[cannotrest]

Got it! Like I'd have a way of publicly telling people besides a press release anyway.

[Ashley is one of those rare souls who doesn't use social media. It seems weirdly self centered to her, and her technopathy tries to pull her attention enough as it is without getting programmed notifications.]

Do you have a code name for that kind of thing?

[eloquentness]

Not at the moment.
My friends suggested Star a long time ago, but idk. It doesn't seem to fit.

[cannotrest]

Yeah, stars aren't that informative.

Compass, because you guide people? Hm. I'll think about it. Although it took me ages to come up with mine, so no guarantees.

[eloquentness]

Ooh, I like the sound of that. I'll put it in the "maybes" category.

No worries. I've gone without a codename for over a year now. A little longer won't hurt. (:

[cannotrest]

I take back what I said about ages to come up with mine because I definitely haven't been sitting on it for over a year :P

[eloquentness]

lol yes, that is EXACTLY what I'm here for

making you feel better about your life choices 🤣
