[The Captain has been trying to hole up in his room for a while now.

Of course a few people still managed to pester him during his isolation.

Exploring the house, The Captain finds a Christmas present still sitting there with his name on it. Suspicious, but secretly hoping it is a restock on his alcohol supply, he opens it up to see just what this town had in store for him now.

First a look of surprise, then a shout!]


"☠☠☠☠ YES!"

[He begins stripping right there in the living room! Pulling camo cargo pants, converse sneakers, a baseball t-shirt with a big black star on the chest and a brown trench trench coat. Getting dressed again, not bothering to tie the sneakers. The Captain is back!

Even happy enough to forget what bad things might come of checking mail, he gets a special card as well. When he sees it he begins laughing. Crumpling the card and then striding confidently to the phone.]




[Call | To Everyone!]

"Okay everyone, sorry for laying low. I was kinda pinned down during Christmas break and, though I still can't sleep without that pill cocktail I made at work, I'm doing much better.

Okay, now to business. This call is to all you current, former or future super heroes and villains. I want to call a meeting. All of us, without cracking skulls or trying to ☠☠☠☠ each other from behind. Got it? Serious talks.

If you're in, give me a call. If not, ☠☠☠☠ you."


[Call | Fail Filtered to Lucas]

"Hey kid. I got something to show you. Come by my place, I'll be waiting outside."

[The Captain will be waiting outside dressed like this.

His drone dog is tied to the tree. The Captain is bleeding a little and has a little bit of blood staining his sleeve. He really hates that dog.]

Oh. Of course!

[Aww. How nice of the Captain to be concerned about his dog. Lucas nods and casts Shield Alpha and a few doses of Defense Up Omega, each PSI burst being accompanied by a brief glow.]

What's the damage reduced by?

"That's the best you got right?"

[The Captain walks up staying just out of reach of the dog which snapped at him.]

You want the absolute best?

[Another Defense Up Omega. That makes it . . . 50% absolute damage reduction from Shield, and the three Defense Ups together increase the dog's natural defense by 30%. Exact percentage depends on the blow that will strike.]

[The Captain nods.]

"That'll do. Let's see if I got it back..."

[The Captain rears pack and punches the bubble. A loud crack could be heard from the impact.

The Captain can punch through three nuclear subs and keep going.

Even at 10% he'd kill a guy.

Inside the bubble Lucas would watch the dog explode.]

[It's a good thing Lucas used Shield instead of Counter, then. The moment at which Lucas's brain turns itself off is unclear, but he is still staring at the dismembered parts ten seconds later.]

[The Captain doesn't know how lucky he is that he isn't dead right now. Seeing that though he seems thrilled.]

"Holy ☠☠☠☠! It's back.

Though that dog will be back by this morning and will just bite me again. I could use any of my other powers right now. Still, I'm back!"

[Keep on talking, Captain. All you're getting is this face.]

[It takes a moment but The Captain eventually realizes Lucas isn't talking.]

"Hey Lucas...

... Lucas?"

[Correction: It has slowly changed into this face.]

"You okay there Lucas?"

[The dog and his strength forgotten for a moment as he crouches down, staring.]

Excuse me.

[Lucas is going to be power-walking towards your front door now. If it's locked, he'll be vanishing indoors. If it's not locked, he's walking behind a bush to vomit.]

[Just watching him go, not quite getting what just happened.

Lucas will find the front door unlocked and be able to get to the bathroom.]

[He will be back about ten minutes later, purposefully avoiding looking at the carcass.]

Mr. Captain? In the future, could you tell me why you need my PSI before you ask me to use it?

[For perhaps the first time ever, Lucas's voice is a little cold.]

Date: 2011-01-13 03:55 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] heartstar-blues.livejournal.com
[Yeah, that worries The Captain. He'll realize all of this when he actually takes time to think.]

"Sure kid. I promise to next time."

Thanks.

If you need me again, just call.

[And he's going to begin to leave now.]

"Okay...

Is everything okay kid?"

. . . Mr. Captain? What happens if you accidentally run into someone?

"Like walking? They fall down. Why?"

OK.

I was just wondering.

"Yeah, I'm super strong but I guess Physics still applies in some sense."

[Don't ask him how that works, he wouldn't be able to figure it out.]
