[phobic]

I'm in the market for an assistant. Someone with steady hands who knows how to read aloud. You wouldn't believe how many people I'm surrounded by who have, at the most, a third grade education.

Yes, I'll pay - an hourly, twice minimum wage rate. And it's not physically demanding work.

Bats need not apply.

Quick!

What is your favorite thing to taste?

Conversely, what is your least favorite?

I would ask, you know, 'what is your favorite food,' but I'm not specifically talking about foods. I'm sure you know what plenty of things that aren't food taste like. That said, I'm willing to bet that most people's favorite tastes are food, whereas a good deal of least favorite would not be food. But that's neither here nor there.

I need to know for very important reasons.

[ carol's lounging in the living room of the mansion in a tank top and shorts because, well. ]

I can't believe it's almost summer. It seems like just yesterday it was the middle of January and everyone was freezing their asses off on the actually wintery days. It's a nice change, though. I like the heat more than I like the cold. Which is probably due to how much time I spent in deserts after college. What about you, City? Hot or cold...?

[ she trails off, then frowns a little as she looks to the side, out at the rest of the mansion. ]

Alright, this is getting eerie. I can't remember the last time the house was this quiet. And dog-less, but I'm not complaining about that.

[ as if on cue, there's a bark from off-camera. carol chuckles— ] Oh, that just figures. [ and turns off the feed, presumably to go play with whatever dog is barking. ]

[Doom is once again in his lab, tinkering away on a robotics project. In the background, there are several body parts like this just laying around. There's also the lovely Susan Storm scribbling frantically in a notebook in a much better lit corner of the room.]

I am curious to know what the denizens of this network thing about heroes. Would you consider yourself to be one? Would society? Does society's definition of what is heroic contradict your own?

Perhaps you views society's definition as being incomplete. Perhaps action in the moment is only a minimal part of what it means to be a hero. Perhaps it could be said that true heroes are ever-present, vigilante. Never... Vacationing.

[He pauses. Carefully eyeing Susan's reaction for a moment.]

To me a hero is someone who does not shirk his responsibility once the initial battle is won. Someone who is not only capable of defeating an enemy, but recovering from one as well. To me, an actual hero is very difficult to find in this city.

[He nods once, and the robot hand he's been tinkering with starts edging forward, eventually turning off the comm.]
