Freddie had been hanging around the Tower the last few days, largely for a lack of anything better to do. His personal life was still a mess after his period of powerlessness, after all.
"And I missed being on TV?" Lorena said, entering the room. As she was still new to the team, she'd been settling in, and had missed out on the fight. "Damn. Better luck next time, I guess"
"Hey Lorena!" Eddie waves to her. "Yeah, sorry. Bad timing I guess. Don't worry, I'm sure you'll get on TV soon, once the news people start following us around." He holds out his bag of spicy jalapeno Doritos to her and Freddie.
"I totally don't mind splicing you in there, if you want," Gear tells Lorena, fiddling with a small orb and a screwdriver. "I know it wouldn't be the same, though."
"Nicely done, you guys!" Paco whoops, thumping Eddie on the back. "Awesome show for your first official time out." He cocks his head thoughtfully as the news anchor speaks. "Huh. We should throw a party or something. Introduce Eddie and Megan and Lorena and let the reporters ask questions and whatever. Could be fun."
"Yeah, I like spicy." Eddie tells Freddie and munches on a handful of Doritos.
"I think you mean a press conference Paco! We need to introduce ourselves to the public, get ourselves known. Let's call the press and let them know where we are. And have a party too, of course." Eddie turns to Richie.
"I knew 'coming-out party' wasn't what I was looking for," Paco said. "Unless someone wants to do that too, in which case warn me ahead of time so I can get the rainbow stickers." He thought for a moment. "I'm thinking a barbecue. Everyone likes barbecues."
"It sounds like we've got a plan then." Eddie says as he stands up and grins. "Press conference with a barbecue after party. Uhm, does anyone know CNN's phone number?"
"At least they got my name right. Hey guys, we're on TV! Awesome huh?"
