[Mark Matthews is reading the paper tonight before bed. There's a glass of scotch by his side and that big fake smile on his face.

That smile turns into a frown when he realizes he can't comprehend what the newspaper is saying.

The Captain is back, losing a few IQ points when undroning.

He takes the glass of scotch and downs it it on gulp, barely tasting it. Making his way over to the phone.]



[Phone | Everyone]

☠☠☠☠, I'm back again. Not like this town has anywhere to send me anyways.

Whose bushes did I ☠☠☠☠ in to deserve being punished like that anyways?


[Action | 950 Beulah Street residents]

[The Captain just won't settle for the clothes his drone self liked to wear. Going to his closet.

He strips down to his boxers first.

Suiting up, he puts on a pair of camo, cargo pants.

Then a gray t-shirt with a big black star on the chest.

Socks and Red Converse high tops go on next.

Lastly, he throws on the stained, worn out duster and let's it settle on his shoulders.

The Captain is back!]



[Action | On the streets]

[The Captain is going to the bar. Because where else does he go to cope with anything?

He'll walk the first few blocks before remembering he is a ☠☠☠☠ super hero. He launches himself into the air and flys the rest of the way.]



[Action | Olney's Tavern]

[The Captain starts light, shots of whiskey and beers for chasers.

Soon enough he'll just order the bottle and stop the pretense of chasers.

He's sitting alone at a table at the moment but he doesn't seem to be glaring people away from joining him.]

Yeah, I'd be a pretty terrible super hero without them actually.

[He's a pretty bad one with them.]

Yeah, leave that one up to Aaron. That guy is like the Swiss army knife of ☠☠☠☠ kicking.

What's wrong with a simple chainsaw or a grappling hook, but no, you look at comic books these days and it's all intelligent computers and what not.

Man, intelligent computers are the worse. What good is being invulnerable when they figure out how to get past it?

Exactly, takes all the fun out of it too if you can't understand half of what the hero is doing. Or the villain.

Yeah, when you're good at something you might as well stick with it.

Even if it means ramming an air ship's engine block at full speed... what works, works.

You take full advantage of that 'invulnerability' stuff, don't you.

Wouldn't you? I mean, yeah, I still get my ☠☠☠☠ kicked often enough, but at least I don't die for making mistakes... usually.

You know, I totally would. Do you realize how many awesome motorcycle stunts I could pull if I wouldn't break my neck?

Yeah, wait until you can fly.

The ☠☠☠☠ you can pull when hitting a wall at high speed doesn't kill you.

Yeah, it's a lot of fun.

Of course, no one teaches you so it's a lot of learning by doing.

What's harder to learn, take off or landing?

Re: [phone]

Landing.

Taking off is easy. You just got to think about it.

Landing, you have to think about lowering and think about landing at the same time. It's rough to balance.

That's just my power though, other fliers have it different.

Hah, no wonder you crash so much. [Ken's voice is gentle though, he doesn't really mean it to hurt.

Yeah, like I said, I'm happy about the invulnerability.

[He's laughing about it. He doesn't mind.]

I think Monica had it easy. She flies because she can create light energy or something like that. I think she just picks a spot and it zips her there.

Sheesh, lucky her. So her abilities are more like your standard flyer power?

I think mine is kinda the most basic. I just fly, it's magic.

She manipulates light energy.

Tabby makes explosions to propel herself through the air.

One guy had actual wings. Others use wind or psychic powers to do it.
