45th Hangover - Pod-Captain [Event!]

[heartstar_blues]

[Action | 950 Beulah Street]

[The Captain will greet his not!daughter, cheerful as ever, and even ask her about her classes.]

[Action | Around Town]

[The Captain is walking around, sober and cheerful. Two things you don't see every day.

He waves to people he sees.

He might also ask you about work or your families.]

[Action | The Pharmacy]

(OK, meeting Miss Ethelbert dressed in that outfit and acting like a goody-two-shoes? Bad enough. NOW she meets the Captain acting not drunk and very polite? The world has officially gone insane. She'll approach him like normal, but her guard is high up, in case he tries anything funny,)

How're you doing today sir?

[heartstar_blues]

Hello!

Wonderful weather we're having, isn't it?

[prpl_assistant]

Yes, yes it is.

(OK, semi-droned. She needs to get more info on how the effects though, so she has to talk to him for a bit more.)

I hope you've been having a good day so far, sir. Have you figured out what you're going to do with your superpowers yet?

[heartstar_blues]

Oh, ma'am, you embarass me.

Things I say after a night out with the boys shouldn't be held against me. Super powers, how silly.

By the way, your order of depression pills are in.

[His voice raising a little so that others in the lobby can hear him.]

Now, as you know, take only two. Even if the mood hits you, do not down the whole bottle, again. Is that understood?

Pharmacy!

[ooeeooahah]

[ Ilsa's stocking up on first aid supplies and some of the commonly found household treatments. Her smile dims only slightly when she sees The Captain being cheerful. ]

Good morning! Just getting ready for winter, making sure we have everything for the flu season.

[ If The Captain has been droned, it means another trip to get any surgical supplies and medications. ]

Pharmacy!

[heartstar_blues]

[Being cheerful is always a bad sign for him, isn't it?]

Of course, of course.

Oh, here's your order.

You got general cold remedies and your order of diet pills.

[ooeeooahah]

[ The Captian being cheerful and rude is a new thing, causing Ilsa to scan him. She replies with an acid smile to cover her distress at seeing him like this. ]

Oh, no - those aren't for me, my husband prefers curves to women who look like underage boys.

[ Something's not right about the Captain, and she has the sneaking suspicion that this ain't him. ]

[heartstar_blues]

[He looks like The Captain, but when did The Captain have a better insult than to curse you?

Even his drone self is usually just cheerful, never really mean.]

Of course he does sweety.

Someone has to.

Can I help you with anything else today?

[gezellighe]

[He's pretty sure The Captain is droned; the superhero's non-droned and non-pod co-worker will simply watch him for a little bit, then roll his eyes with a sigh.

Damnit, Mayfield.]

[heartstar_blues]

[The Captain wouldn't let that go, though.

Well, Mark Matthews wouldn't at least.]

Trouble at home?

[gezellighe]

. . . right.

[Because this was how all their conversations were, sure. Currently, he's got a row of bottles in front of him that he's filling with prescriptions. Even though it didn't really matter, Holland still paid attention to detail.]

[heartstar_blues]

I know what you mean. Sometimes I feel like taking a few days vacation from the wife and kids.

Except, when I do it, I prefer to spend my time with the waitress, not the pool boy.

[distortits]

[Odd. Had he been droned again? Then again, he does seem way too cheerful, even for a drone...]

I'm...doing fine as always. I'm always keeping on top of classes, so school isn't a problem.

[heartstar_blues]

[He seems glad to hear.]

That's great honey. Be sure to cover up though, and don't smile as much at your teachers.

You don't want them to know you're one of those type of girls.

[distortits]

[Brow raise, get.]

...excuse me?

[heartstar_blues]

You heard me young lady.

Now, back to your studies. Got to make daddy proud.

[Around Town]

[sturmbahnfurher]

[Well someone just got out of their pod and is determined to find their doppelganger. He has quite a few words for him, in fact. Mainly spoken in the language of violence.

Still, this? Is not something he was expecting.]

My, we're in a good mood, aren't we?

Re: [Around Town]

[heartstar_blues]

Beautiful day, officer.

Glad to see you out walking, for once.

How were the donuts this morning?

[Around Town]

[sturmbahnfurher]

Unreachable, I'm afraid. It was quite rude!

It's nice to see how pleasant you are without your bottle. Perhaps someone should pull it out of your grasping little hands more often.

[Around Town]

[heartstar_blues]

Someone, eh?

Glad to see you call back up rather than force those chubby little fingers to try and grasp something.

You know, because I am only looking out for your well being.

Speaking of which, did you pick up your prescriptions today?
