Attention Heroes!

If there are any other Heroes here, get in touch with me as soon as you can.

Are you fucking serious? Heroes? Capital-H-heroes? Like with dumb spandex costumes with the underwear on the outside and everything?

Oh, man. This place is endlessly hilarious.

Never heard of you, though. Pity. Spoiling "secret identities" sounds like a blast.

[zeus-incarnate.livejournal.com]

Actually, my identity isn't secret anymore. But most people know me better as Statesman.

[tartaros-avatar.livejournal.com]

Unfortunately, he's completely serious.

[damn-legends.livejournal.com]

Nothing wrong with Spandex costumes. I'll draw the line at wearing the underwear outside, but if you're going to be fighting it's best to do it in something form-fitting.

[jei.livejournal.com]

Fair enough. But bright red and blue spandex? With capes?

[damn-legends.livejournal.com]

A cape is just asking to get caught on something. And it's noisy. There's nothing wrong with small adornments but anyone wearing a cape in seriousness deserves what they get for it.

And...it's probably better to stick to grays and dark blues in terms of color.

[zeus-incarnate.livejournal.com]

I've had yet to have a problem with my cape.

But only more experienced heroes are allowed to wear them.

Ed wants a cape! Ed has no super powers though...

[tartaros-avatar.livejournal.com]

None of your followers are here, Marcus.

[zeus-incarnate.livejournal.com]

They're not my 'followers', they're my team mates, Recluse. And even if they aren't here, there might be other heroes here.

[tartaros-avatar.livejournal.com]

Trust me (if you can), I would have noticed someone from Primal Earth here by now.

[zeus-incarnate.livejournal.com]

If I trusted you half as far a quarter of the distance a fraction of the distance I could throw you, I'd believe you.

Even if you are right, there might be heroes from other dimensions here.

Re: [strikeouts completely blacked out]

[tartaros-avatar.livejournal.com]

And what would it take to get to that point?

None that I've recognized.

[zeus-incarnate.livejournal.com]

Honestly? It'll take a lot more than I think you can do to get to that point.

[tartaros-avatar.livejournal.com]

Really? Try me. I've managed to surprise you before.

[1imited-edition.livejournal.com]

What does it take to be a Hero with a capital H?

[zeus-incarnate.livejournal.com]

The Heroes I'm talking about are the type that go out with masks and capes and fight crime.

But there are other types of heroes.

[1imited-edition.livejournal.com]

How colorful. Are these Heroes beholden to the law? How do they relate with civil authority?

[zeus-incarnate.livejournal.com]

Yes. Ever since the Citizen Crime Fighting Act of 1937 it has been perfectly legal for Heroes to fight crime.

[1imited-edition.livejournal.com]

That's it then. If I am able to leave this place, I will become a Hero.

[zeus-incarnate.livejournal.com]

That's the spirit. If you want to find me today I have blue stars drawn on the shoulders of my uniform.

[never-learns.livejournal.com]

So the kind in godawful movies and comic books then?

[1imited-edition.livejournal.com]

I doubt the role in entertainment is the same in a reality where the whole phenomenon is real.

[zeus-incarnate.livejournal.com]

No, you'd be surprised. There was a cartoon about me a few decades ago.

[ol-canucklehead.livejournal.com]

I might be of some assistance. Where do I find you?

- Logan

[zeus-incarnate.livejournal.com]

I have blue stars drawn on the shoulders of my shirt.

[ol-canucklehead.livejournal.com]

Thanks. I'll find you.

[a-spider-can.livejournal.com]

Statesman? What kind of name is

What for?

[zeus-incarnate.livejournal.com]

If we work together we're even stronger than we are individually.

A team can get a lot more accomplished than a bunch of Heroes working alone.

[Anonymous]

[a-spider-can.livejournal.com]

You have a point, but some of us are used to working alone, and aren't as open about our identities.

[zeus-incarnate.livejournal.com]

I used to work alone too, and I have a friend and team mate who did the 'lone hero' bit. Actually... he still does it.

If you want to keep going alone, that's up to you, but I'm here if you want to talk. Look for the man with the blue stars on his shoulders, or put a message up here.

[Anonymous]

[a-spider-can.livejournal.com]

I'll keep it in mind.
