[So, the fight against the Postman ended as these fights always do.

Still, long after it was over. Long after the pain has faded from memory. The Captain was still no where to be found! About a week later The Captain finally reappears. First with a phone call.]



[Phone | Unfiltered to Everyone]

Hey, this is Captain ☠☠☠☠.

The Postman is a lot tougher than he seems and he's a ☠☠☠☠.

Also, ☠☠☠☠ it. Unless your name is Elsa Bloodstone, I work alone. Don't bother calling me, I'm not going to be here.

[Click! Hangs up and leaves.]


[Action | Around Town]

[The Captain heads to his favorite place to escape, the bar. Though he stands outside it for a long moment before changing his mind and walking away.

He'll wander aimlessly around town. His eventual destination is Makeout Point since it's a nice view. Sitting up there and watching the town as he tries to think.]


((Name where you run into him if you tag. He can be wandering past anywhere.))

[Frowns, not in a good mood to be meeting anyone really.

But it's Ken so he does wave back.]

[When is the Captain ever in a good mood? But still, Ken picks up on the reluctance.]

Hey, you ok man?

No.

[For one... he looks sober. That can't be good.]

[Whoa...will wonders never cease?]

What happened? [He didn't hear the phone call]

I fought the Postman and lost.

[That's not it though, this guy loses all the time.]

I wasn't the only one...

[He's with you so far, Ken figured that the postman would probably be in the same category as Grady. Then the Captain speaks his next set of words.]

Shit, you guys got torn apart, didn't you.

From: [identity profile] heartstar-blues.livejournal.com
Yeah, wouldn't be the first time...

[Let's out a frustrated breath.]

I'm a pretty terrible super hero. I can't believe I let that ☠☠☠☠ happen.

From: [identity profile] weiss-tank.livejournal.com
You're not a terrible super hero, the people here are just stupidly powerful and we haven't found their weak points yet.

[Ken is entirely sympathetic]

From: [identity profile] heartstar-blues.livejournal.com
No... I can deal with them being powerful. It's annoying but it's not like I haven't met people I can't beat before.

[If this conversation was someone else, The Captain would have just cursed and ditched it. Since it's Ken, he's venting.]

I got a kid killed too... pretty badly. I don't think she's going to take it well.

[He didn't take it well. He took it with a drinking binge. The fact he still feels guilty after that is what's getting him.]

[Ken winced at that.]

Start from the beginning Captain. What happened? [This is sounding worse and worse by the minute.]

[Now he wishes he wasn't sober.]

A kid, who is a super hero back in her world, kept bugging me so I let her come along and included her when I decided to attack the Postman.

I told her if the Postman didn't go down in the first hit, or if Grady appeared, to get out. She can teleport so I figured she'd have a chance.

Date: 2011-03-05 07:56 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] weiss-tank.livejournal.com
[Well, that explains a few things.]

I take it she couldn't teleport fast enough to get away...

Date: 2011-03-05 08:05 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] heartstar-blues.livejournal.com
Not even, I don't think she knew who the ☠☠☠☠ Grady even was. I thought she did...

The plan kinda worked even... the Postman went down hard. I crushed and mangled him pretty good.

Date: 2011-03-05 08:07 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] weiss-tank.livejournal.com
Well that's something at least...I'm sure she'll be ok Captain. [He hoped for her sake at any rate. You just couldn't tell.]

That fat porker is a force to be dealt with, that's for sure.

I don't know, dying's not easy. I crushed the Postman, Grady showed up and she just ☠☠☠☠ waved at him until he froze us. Then the Postman got up looking like a broken corpse.

He fixed himself and made her take all the damage. I hit the ☠☠☠☠ with a car and buried him in rubble and twisted metal. She had to feel all of that before she died...

From: [identity profile] weiss-tank.livejournal.com
Ow, fuck, that's awful! [Shit, this was worse then he thought...if Grady could do that...Hmm.]

Damn that stupid mother fucker! That isn't fair!

Date: 2011-03-05 08:13 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] heartstar-blues.livejournal.com
Yeah, Grady didn't even do anything. He just froze us and left us to the Postman. I didn't know the Postman could do that.

I bet she's not taking this well. I've learned my lesson, from here on out I don't take people with me. ☠☠☠☠ working with others, it's not worth it.

Date: 2011-03-05 08:17 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] weiss-tank.livejournal.com
Huh, I didn't think they got along like that. [This was also food for thought.]

Don't go getting your self into that kinda shit either! It isn't good for you at all! Even if you're used to it!

Date: 2011-03-05 07:17 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] heartstar-blues.livejournal.com
I don't think they like each other, I think they ☠☠☠☠ hate us more.

Don't worry about me... I'll take it.

[No he won't, he'll let it tear him apart and start to drink it away.]

Date: 2011-03-05 08:17 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] weiss-tank.livejournal.com
Ta hell with that man! You maybe a super hero but you're still human! Trauma like that is not healthy for anyone!

[Ken is actually getting really worked up about this. He likes the Captain for some strange reason.]

Date: 2011-03-05 08:26 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] heartstar-blues.livejournal.com
Yeah, so? I'm not going to get anything done if I'm afraid of what's going to happen next.

[Then again, that's how you got a young hero mutilated and massacred.]

From: [identity profile] weiss-tank.livejournal.com
There's a balance Captain, between fear, bravery and sheer stupidity. Yes, there's sometimes where you just gotta go for it, but sometimes you have to step back and think.

[Not that Ken EVER follows this advice, but it sounds good and he believes it right now.]

Date: 2011-03-05 08:41 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] heartstar-blues.livejournal.com
Yeah, well that isn't my strong point. I hit things, that's what I do. I have to stop thinking I actually have a plan and just go back to the basics.

Date: 2011-03-05 08:42 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] weiss-tank.livejournal.com
Captain, stop getting yourself killed for fucks sake!

[Just blinks.]

... fine. I won't. I'll hold back.
