I have a very serious question to ask all of you, dahlings. I could ask each individually, but it comes up so often I thought I would take care of it all at once.

Are you all sitting down?

Ready for a nice chat?

Good.

Okay, serious question now, dahlings:

What do you all have against spandex?

Every time I offer one of you supers a suit the only concern

If you an' your powers ain't designed for speed, why should your uniform gotta be?

It's like havin' cape if you don't fly: totally stupid.

[daaaaaaahling]

Capes are stupid no matter what your power! Especially if you fly!

Is looking 'good' which is up for debate because capes don't even look dramatic if everyone and their uncle is wearing one more important than staying alive?

Have you ever seen a newsreport after a super died from their cape? Bits everywhere, dahling. Everywhere!

No capes. Your argument is moot.

[shockheadedpete]

The heck are you talkin' about? I never seen anybody get killed by their own cape. What, was it a evil cape?

[daaaaaaahling]

Thunderhead! 1958! Cape snagged on a missile fin.

Justice Guy! 1975! Caught on a flagpole at 100 mph!

Gazebo boy! 1960! Sucked into a giant mechanical clock!

No capes!

[shockheadedpete]

How the hell are you people attaching your capes???

[daaaaaaahling]

To their supersuits, that's the problem.

[shockheadedpete]

Yeah, but with what, nooses?

[daaaaaaahling]

They would be safer with a noose around their neck than a cape. Less material to be snagged into a vortex!

[shockheadedpete]

You all must be makin' 'em wrong or somethin', 'cause I come from a 70% cape-wearin' population and we ain't got that problem. Hell, practically every kid in the city wears a cape no matter what, 'cause kids freakin' love capes, right?

But bringin' it back to your original question: folks here don't dress like that, an' that's a shame, but sometimes it's better to fit in.

[daaaaaaahling]

M...ma...MAKING THEM WRONG?!!!!!!!

WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE TALKING TO, DAHLING?! I HAVE NOT MADE ANYTHING WRONG! IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO MAKE A CAPE RIGHT! IMPOSSIBLE, DAHLING!

[shockheadedpete]

Our whole dimension manages...

[daaaaaaahling]

If everyone in your dimension jumped off a cliff would you go too?

[shockheadedpete]

No.

[daaaaaaahling]

Exactly.

[shockheadedpete]

Not exactly! That ain't the point at all!

Pete, take it from someone who knows. Don't ever question the designer. You're safer that way.
