CH 20: Century Park (Howl)

[Renekin Skywalker]

"I... jus - what? No. I'm sorry, but Wolfboys are old hat in Century Station. We've already upgraded to a mutant parakeet. If you want anything besides lame sideshow work, you'ld better prove you have real skills. And a resume." Daveris says, her voice getting a little louder to cut Quicksilver off. "I've go not job to offer, anyways. Look, as much as the cops here are a little much, maybe you would be better with them, or else you're going to end up stealing bread to survive."

[HSummers]

Howl looks at Quicksilver with a cocked eyebrow. "I thought you said your friend could help?" He looks as if he's ready to run.

[Renekin Skywalker]

"I can help find a place to live." Daveris says. "Not get your whole life in order. Someone must have trained you to do something. You put that to good use, and I'll get you the best safest place for a superhero I can find."

"And Quicksilver, just because they're Cavvies doesn't mean you can't be friends with them"

[HSummers]

"I was trained to be an acrobat. Is there a circus in town? If not, I will do tricks on the street corner for money. I do not think there is much of a market for an explosives expert around here. Maybe I could find a regular job." He turns to Quicksilver. "Or, if you let me see your cellular phone thing, I could call my uncle and see if he'll give me money."

[Renekin Skywalker]

Daveris looked at Howl. "Alright. If you can pull something off, I can help. I take it you won't be overly fussy?" She asked.

Speedmetal* clapped. "See? Told you she was awesome!"

*GM errata, it's Speedmetal, not Quicksilver.

[HSummers]

Howl looked Daveris in the eyes and said "I will not be fussy at all."

[Renekin Skywalker]

Daveris nods. "Alright."

And so, Howl manages to get a name of a place. He'll need to find a day-job, but at least he has a place.

Later that night, Speedmetal met up with Howl again. "OK. I think I know what we're going to do." He says, looking like he has a plan. THough, any teenager with a plan cannot always be good. "We'll get this Power Armour guy away from his team, and then get him to stop stealing my hero identity."

[HSummers]

Howl slicks his hair back and raises an eyebrow at Speedmetal. "And this is what we...Legionnaires do? I think your plan needs more work maybe? We could... deliver him a note. Or maybe just talk to him? But the getting him to stop part sounds difficult. Getting him alone means he will be threatened by us. And that means a fight, every time."

GM Placeholder post!

It's coming today, but not just yet.

[Renekin Skywalker]

Just as Howl was getting a phone number for a place from Daveris, Speedmetal perked up. “What’s that?” He asked, as the rumbling Howl had been hearing the back of his mind coaliesced into some kind of battle nearby. “We’re too far from the Labrynth to hear the gunfights, aren’t we?”

Daveris nodded. “I’m heading for shelter. Good luck, you two.” She said, heading around the corner whence she came.

[HSummers]

"Looks like we get to see why they call you Speedmetal." Howl will race toward the sound of the battle, stopping at the nearest corner to the battle to observe what is happening.
