When we got back down to the city, there was some talk about maybe starting up some sort of superhero team, but honestly, it all kind of seemed like a lot of to-do.

“I just feel like the whole using-our-powers-for-good thing is kind of a cliché at this point,” said Joelle (lead vox, fire-laser eyes, flight). “Like what are we supposed to do, just wander the streets, waiting until we see someone get mugged? It doesn’t seem like the best use of our time.”

But then Iris (lead guitar, kinetic vibration, teleportation) gave this really stirring speech about like responsibility and all that, and what it means to be a citizen of this universe, and the social contract or whatever. I wish I could remember it better, because it sounds super-hokey when I paraphrase it, but it really was a pretty great speech, super-inspiring, and it totally made you feel like everything happened for a reason and there was a noble thread sewn into the tapestry of your narrative and, just by existing in this world, you were a part of something wonderful. But I don’t know; maybe you kind of had to be there.
