itp: Nighttime

[tickingtykebomb]

[whatever you're doing tonight, whether it's walking home from dinner or stargazing in the middle of a field, a small masked figure has just emerged from the shadows nearby and is pointing a gun your way]

You have thirty seconds to tell me where the fuck I am.

--and what the deal is with the giant octopus.

((W-w-winding down! I'll pick up new+

Can you put the gun down now?

*all of that was probably stated in two seconds but he was trying hard to make sure it was understandable to those without superspeed. Especially the part about the gun*

*we even commented at the same time, awesome speedster timing*

--Speed?!

[speeeeeeeeeed]

Yeah, but not the one you knew. You're Impulse?

[speeeeeeeeeed]

Everybody keeps calling it Camp, and the gun is seriously unnecessary.

[tickingtykebomb]

I'll be the judge of that, thanks.

[speeeeeeeeeed]

Hey, if you wanna shoot the corn, be my guest, but it's not gonna get you answers from these fine citizens.

[tickingtykebomb]

It's working so far. I'm not gonna waste my bullets on corn.

[shoot_ed_up]

Yep, someone really needs to talk with management about distributing the firearms before orientation.

[tickingtykebomb]

This is mine. And I don't hear an answer to my questions.

[Also happens to have his own pistol at his side, which he's kind of tapping impatiently on his leg but doesn't look like he'll be using it anytime soon. He mostly pulled it when he heard someone cocking a weapon.]

What the hell happened to the crazy gadgets? I'm not digging the 00's version of the masked vigilante here.

Anyway, the old lady's called Marcy. And your new stomping grounds are known as Camp Fuck You Die.

[tickingtykebomb]

Try the old Batman if you want crazy gadgets. People in the real world don't use shark repellent.

What the hell kind of name is that?

[ahotpeace]

[hero or villain?]

[tickingtykebomb]

[anti-hero?!?]

Well?

[ahotpeace]

[that means villain, kid]

Camp. It wasn't always here, but Marcy's always been around.

Put the gun down.

[tickingtykebomb]

I'll put it down when I want to, jackass. Marcy's the tentacle thing?

[goddamnbatsperm]

[omg I love you]

It's not an octopus, stupid.

[grewuptootsun]

The mask look sure is popular.

[goddamnbatsperm]

Yeah, well I was here first.

[grewuptootsun]

We're getting a lot of masked guys.
