wildkotetsu | 8 • Mr. Legend Record • [Action/Voice]

[Kotetsu's been laying low, for the sake of... well, not getting into trouble. He's been doing pretty good, okay? Like, exceptionally! Today is just 'Filter Through the Item Shop' day, where he's getting a few simple things; a camera, a new coat, and the usual sort of thing. Of course, he hardly expected to run into a box of familiar old records--his own, right outta' the apartment back home. He's excited and grinning when he slides back the opened top a little.]

Maaa, no way! This has my Mr. Legend albums and everything!

[Hell yes, today is the best day ever!

... Eh? What's this?

He removes the top completely and narrows his eyes at the small notebook on top. It'd have his recorded regression of power inside, he knew, and there was nothing like a brief reminder of your disappointments to kill the mood, right? But he just grumbles in annoyance under his breath and tucks the small journal away in his back pocket before hoisting up the box of goods.

Perfect. Now there was only one issue.]

[Voice]

Oi, oi, anybody got a video record player they'd let me borrow for a while? Nothing fancy, just whatever'll play my old records! Or a record player for my music, anyway; do the malnosso give those kindsa' things out?

I searched the store, but I didn't see any...

[Hnn.]

Actually, I was wondering if you guys had any kindsa' heroes back home; not like, officers and army people—those guys are heroes, too, but I mean the old fashion Heroes! With capes and masks and all kinds of cool stuff like that! The ones who have neat powers and fight the crooks!

Things like that are the coolest, don't ya' think?

[Afterward he lankily walks off to work, whistling into the kitchen. And practically drools while he sweeps, because my god, why did he work in a place where food was made specifically not for him. :C

He needs something to listen to to get his mind off things.

KITCHEN NEEDS SOME MAD TUNES, PEOPLE. COME ON.

...

I-is that a pie on the oven?

Of course. And I'm not complaining! Ah, well, not much anyway. Even though I do look pretty awesome on TV.

Heck yeah, that's the spirit! You got yourself a cool superhero-sorta' suit?

Yeah, the same one I used on the draft, yeah? [And it was way cooler than yours, man. Just saying.]

[IS NOT.]

Oh, yeah! You were that X-Men guy! You had it on your belt and everything! It was a pretty cool suit.

[Jeez Kotetsu, how many blue friends do you have??]

A little more than pretty cool, but yours was pretty awesome too.

[Hey, my memory sucks, okay.]

Yeah? The guy back home who designed it was a pretty awesome guy. He spoke waaay to low, though; you could barely hear a word he said.

So... how do you know he actually made it then?

Aa, you gotta get really close, like in whispering distance. He's one of the guys at HQ who suits us up and builds all the extra stuff HeroTV needs.

...

If he's wearing his megaphone hat, you can hear him pretty good. Why doesn't he just wear it all the time...?

A megaphone hat? [He is trying to wrap his head around what that would look like.]

Yeah, it sat on his head and he had one of those little ear microphones. It was a lot better than having t'crouch down with your hand next to your ear.

Yeah, I guess so. The Professor made our uniforms. Or hired someone to do it. I'm not really sure about that part.

[Oh? :|a]

The Professor?

He's he one who found us all and gave us somewhere to live. And code names. And uniforms. [... like he was building an army.]

Wow... Just one guy managed to do all of that?

Well, we all help now that he's recruited us. I guess it's a good thing he's pretty loaded.

Oh? S'he one of those billionaire tycoon guys?

Not... really. He just inherited the money, I guess.

Ah... well. That's a pretty good thing to put your money towards, at least. He sounds like a nice fella.

Oh yeah, he's great! I don't know where I'd be without him. He's helped us all out so much.

So he's a sympathizer of people with powers?

Well he has powers too... so yeah.

[Oh!] That makes sense! What kinda' power did he end up with?

He's a telepath. The most powerful one in the world.

Telepath? Like... mind reading?

[That's kind of a scary power. Can you even keep secrets around him? 8|]

Yeah. And everything that comes with it. Sometimes it's pretty weird. Especially since he doesn't bother using a PA if he wants us all to come meet him.
