#28: Reporting In

Yesterday was inconvenient, but gave me the chance to test some equipment. When I was wearing the heat vision goggles, I thought I saw some really huge heat source thing go by being hot and--thingish. Anyway, I haven't posted in a while, have I? Sorry about that...especially since my last post was...unbelievably out of character. But hey, while ( Read more... )

Sure I'll do that. And I do want to respond to what Captain Hammer said. First of all, he's a moron and he hates me and he represents everything that is wrong with society, so you shouldn't listen to what he says. As for the sabotage, there was this stupid Superhero Memorial Bridge dedication--and those superheroes, especially Captain Tool, totally did not deserve a bridge named after them. So I decided to interrupt the ceremony and test out my newest creation...

And I think today's the day
To discuss the Freeze Ray
Which I think might be the way
That we could stop the clock

The clock itself would be fine
But as for the time
It would be stopped on a dime
And just in that one spot

See, the clock doesn't respond well to attacks but if I used my Freeze Ray maybe that wouldn't trigger the defenses, since it would just stop the clock working and not damage it. And maybe the curses would stop. The problem is that the Freeze Ray needs Wonderflonium to work, and I can't find any, so I either need to find some, or radically rework the design, or maybe I could even synthesize some if I...

Anyway, the theft was of some Wonderflonium, which I needed to use for my original Freeze Ray. I couldn't get it any other way and besides, I was putting the Wonderflonium to much better use than anyone else would have. The general public has no idea how to harness it's most interesting properties. So anyway, yes, I'm totally a villain in my world and Captain Hammer is my nemesis, but I've never made any big secret of that, so I hope it's not going to be a problem. I'm not stealing from the company or anything.

[Silence... is followed closely by a soft chuckle, finally erupting in a sharp peal of laughter.]

Hehheh... no... no. Of course not. I've always thought well enough of you Doctor... heh... I just had to ask. Of course you can understand that...

Please forgive me if I had you worried... oh, you do so amuse me...

[He coughs slightly, composing himself once again.]

I do have some news for you concerning our mutual friend Captain Hammer. You'll be pleased to know that I was able to speak to him concerning his attack on you. And he agreed to pay ARTEMIS for the destruction he caused to your equipment. I'll be sending you a portion of this to cover your medical costs.

I think that's what I'd call a successful negotiation...

Oh, was I--the singing, it just happens. Er.

Well anyway, that's good.

I'm surprised he actually agreed to do that...I don't really understand why he would unless it's some sort of PR thing. I guess you are pretty good at negotiations. But really, there's not much medical expenses that need covering. I never actually went to the hospital.
