Superman greatly disliked litter.

As fliers fell from the sky, he did his best to gather them up, lest they become a nuisance to the public and the wildlife. Considering how much time he'd spent getting the city cleaned up after the Heartless attack, the last thing he wanted was for the place to be covered in litter.

However, there seemed to be more of them than even he could safely gather and dispose of.

"...work is in vain indeed." he muttered, reading one of the fliers with a slight 'Hmph'. He was a big believer in hard work bringing about all earthly dreams - this flier seemed to be sending the wrong message. Of course, it was just for fun, probably. Kind of like the 'Ask Miss Cleo' phone line from back in his world. Still - at the very least, the littering didn't sit well with him so he decided to pay Mr. Armand Facilier a visit to talk about it.

He set down gently on the doorstep of the shop, early on Saturday morning. Giving a polite knock, he called "Dr. Facilier?"

The door opened and a tall, angular man in a high top hat stood before him, large smile on his face.

"Welcome, welcome. I see you've collected quite a few of my fliers."

Well, he doesn't have the Jamaican accent. Sorry. He sounds cordial enough though.

"There are quite a few to collect." Superman replied. "Maybe a few more than is really neccesary? I'm not sure about where you come from, Dr. Facilier, but in my world, it would be called littering and is considered something of a nuisance."

All said in conversational tones of course - absolutely non-threatening and without any hint of accusation. He wasn't here to make an enemy, after all. Just to voice a concern.

"I certainly understand your concern and applaud your diligence, but you can rest easy knowing that the fliers will be gone come this week's end."

Smiling casually, both hands rest on the head of his cane.

"That's good to know." Superman replied with a nod. Perhaps they were going to dissapear as magically as they came into being? This gentleman seemed friendly enough, so the man of steel decided to let it go.

"My name is Superman, Dr. Facilier. It's a pleasure to meet you." he said, extending a hand.

"Super...man? A very straight forward and direct name indeed, though it does seem to fit you well. It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance."

He reaches out, take the extended hand for a polite shake.

"It was given to me by a friend of mine." Superman replied, returning the shake and smiling. "You certainly have an interesting establishment. What kinds of services do you offer?"

"I see, I see."

His smile grows a bit as he's asked about his shop.

"Anything you can think of and more. I simply try to help people in whatever ways I can. Something tells me that you can relate to that."

Considering he didn't look like a janitor and yet took it upon himself to clean up the fliers lying around.

"I can. I don't work from a shop but I dedicate myself to the safety and wellbeing of others, yes."

He also didn't charge any kind of money, though, it seemed tactless to mention that.

"Where are you from originally - Your accent rings familiar."

"Only briefly. My work took me all over the country. Unfortunately I never had time to stop and appreciate the city for it's charms. I hear the food is more than amazing, there."

"Very true. It has a whole culture all its own and marches to a different beat from the rest of the country."

"Last time I was there it was during a bridge collapse. I had to tie the steel cables of this large suspension bridge together and hold it tight until everyone could get off - It took some time to get everyone clear and repair the bridge. Unfortunately, right after that, I had to be in Minnesota to rescue some snowbound hikers, so I didn't get more than a smell of the food."

"Tie the steel cables...incredible. I see you make sure to live up to that 'super.'"

A power like that could certainly be useful if put to work in the right way...

"Well, as I said, a friend gave me the name. But only after I had earned it." Superman replied with a smile.

"Earned it indeed. I certainly wouldn't want to know the requirements for such a thing. I hope I able to call on you should I need a fraction of that strength as well."
