[madeinoblivion]

Sounds cool, but....


I'm kind of banned from the Arcade, if you mean SERO's big one.

[voicemail; 2/29/12]

[theshortestbird]

...How did you get banned from it?

Re: [voicemail; 2/29/12]

[madeinoblivion]

Messing around. Getting into some trouble.

We wanted to hit SERO where it hurts.

[voicemail; 2/29/12]

[theshortestbird]

...So you went after the arcade? [That makes no sense, Joe. But. Hm.]

You're really against the companies, aren't you.

Re: [voicemail; 2/29/12]

[madeinoblivion]

They've done terrible things to my friends.

[voicemail; 2/29/12]

[theshortestbird]

...Yeah. That's true. But hitting them in the arcade? Isn't really hitting them where it hurts. [Pauses.] You have the right attitude, though.

Re: [voicemail; 2/29/12]

[madeinoblivion]

Okay, so- where does a guy like me hit them where it hurts? I can't pass for a scientist and get anywhere near their labs.

[voicemail; 2/29/12]

[theshortestbird]

You don't start at the labs. You start at the docks. Both AGI and SERO send out for things all the time. If you delay their shipment even a little bit, then you're good to go.

[Pauses.] Have you ever thought about going out in costume? So no one recognizes you.

Re: [voicemail; 2/29/12]

[madeinoblivion]

What, like Wingman?

Yeah. Red X said it's good to not show your face- he said the docks would be the best place to start too, actually! I'd just wear my hood up, though.

[voicemail; 2/29/12]

[theshortestbird]

Yeah. Like Wingman. [Pauses. Wait. Red X? What? ...Shit.]

Yeah, he, um, he's right. I have a friend who's starting to get involved in that stuff. He goes around at night as Red Robin, I could see if he'd be interested in finding more people to help him out?

Re: [voicemail; 2/29/12]

[madeinoblivion]

Sure. I can only go around some nights- I've got Merlotte's, and- well, I've been fighting with Sam a lot lately, so I don't even know how much longer I'll be working there, so...

So just tell the guy whenever he's got a plan together, I'm in.

[voicemail; 2/29/12]

[theshortestbird]

I'll let him know. I think he was thinking of getting teen superheroes together. They had that back home, you know? Might be cool.

[voicemail; 2/29/12]

[madeinoblivion]

Be heroes, huh?

... That doesn't sound too bad.

[voicemail; 2/29/12]

[theshortestbird]

Yeah. Fight against bad guys, save people, take down the companies. It'd be pretty cool.

Re: [voicemail; 2/29/12]

[madeinoblivion]

Then count me in! I've been wanting to do something for a long time...

Are you gonna be a superhero too, Tim?

[voicemail; 2/29/12]

[theshortestbird]

I'm thinking about it. I told Red Robin that if he got a group together, then I might consider it.

[voicemail; 2/29/12]

[madeinoblivion]

So I'll see you there, then? What kind of costume should I wear?

[voicemail; 2/29/12]

[theshortestbird]

A mask is a must. Even if it's something simple; it needs to cover your eyes, it doesn't need to cover the whole face. Then whatever else you think makes a good costume, I'm sure he'll have critiques for you once he sees you.

Re: [voicemail; 2/29/12]

[madeinoblivion]

Is he a harsh critic?

[voicemail; 2/29/12]

[theshortestbird]

Only if he's helping you become the best you can be.

Re: [voicemail; 2/29/12]

[madeinoblivion]

Oh come on, really. Don't sound like a sap about it, Tim.

[voicemail; 2/29/12]

[theshortestbird]

[Laughs.] Tell that to him, and he might let you drive the Batmobile.

Re: [voicemail; 2/29/12]

[madeinoblivion]

The what?! Really?!

[voicemail; 2/29/12]

[theshortestbird]

Yup! Batman had that back in Gotham, where I'm from? A Batmobile, you could see it on the road at night.

Re: [voicemail; 2/29/12]

[madeinoblivion]

And he's got that here?

And Red Robin could get me the keys!?

How do you even know this guy, Tim!
