9th Hangover - I'm Real ☠☠☠☠ [Call | Everyone]

[hisnameisthecaptain]

[After a confusing conversation with a strange young man. The Captain is putting out a call to the town.]

"Okay people, I got a question. Who here has read comic books back home?"

[The Captain is sure the guy was just crazy. Mostly sure.]

Fascinating.

Well, Mayfield works in mysterious ways. It brings people here from all sorts of places. For all I know, you could be from a comic book. But you aren't in a comic book now. You're in Mayfield now.

[heartstar-blues.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but if you had to be from a comic, it would help if anyone actually knew who you were.

[puzzlerprince.livejournal.com]

Not too many people seem to know who I am, either. Though it certainly does work to my advantage. I'd hate to be labeled a villain on sight.

[Even though he kind of is.]

[heartstar-blues.livejournal.com]

You're a villain? Sucks to be you.

[puzzlerprince.livejournal.com]

Did I ever say I was a villain? I was merely stating that these comics with my likeness in Mayfield would suggest that I am more of a criminal than I truly am now.

[Which is to say he hasn't done anything bad here. Yet.]

[heartstar-blues.livejournal.com]

Well, you aren't all Jim Carey like, like you are in the movie.

[puzzlerprince.livejournal.com]

...Jim Carrey? You're telling me Jim Carrey played me in a movie?

[heartstar-blues.livejournal.com]

Yeah. It was pretty ☠☠☠☠. At least it wasn't as bad as Arnold Schwarzen☠☠☠☠ playing Mr. Freeze. Or Dr. Freeze, or whatever.

[puzzlerprince.livejournal.com]

Ha! Oh, you've got to be kidding me!

[heartstar-blues.livejournal.com]

Don't you watch movies?

[puzzlerprince.livejournal.com]

Of course! Just none featuring my friends or I. I wasn't even aware there was a comic-book about us until I got here.

[heartstar-blues.livejournal.com]

I wonder if I was in a movie.

[puzzlerprince.livejournal.com]

Well, up until today, I'd never even heard of "the Captain."

[heartstar-blues.livejournal.com]

See? At least we've heard of you.

[puzzlerprince.livejournal.com]

Well, see, that's no surprise. Who wouldn't have heard of a cunning, handsome young genius like me?

[heartstar-blues.livejournal.com]

Well, Jim Carey is kinda famous.

[puzzlerprince.livejournal.com]

For playing me? In a film? Who wouldn't be famous after that?

[heartstar-blues.livejournal.com]

I thought he was famous before that film.

Besides, don't you always lose?

[puzzlerprince.livejournal.com]

...well, I wouldn't go as far as to say that.

[heartstar-blues.livejournal.com]

I mean I don't really read the comics but if Batman always wins doesn't that mean he always kicks your ☠☠☠☠?

[puzzlerprince.livejournal.com]

He does not always win!

[heartstar-blues.livejournal.com]

Well he's got to win by the end or else there wouldn't be a comic and all those movies about him would there?

[puzzlerprince.livejournal.com]

He does not have to win by the end.

If anything, I've proven to him on multiple occasions that I am the superior mind.

[heartstar-blues.livejournal.com]

I don't know, he kinda beat you in the movie.
