Yeah, compared to the highly visible League, the wheels of government turn slowly and invisibly. I can imagine people being unsatisfied with the folks in charge, seeing only minimal response to the Anti-Life and its aftermath...
Ah, the Ring being helpful as ever.
And surprisingly polite. I'd be a little worried its VI is getting a little too smart...
Don't underestimate how stupid a group can be. They're only as smart as their dumbest member.
I wouldn't be surprised if some of them didn't survive the event. Which means their constituents would have to see about electing someone to take the seat...
Might want to check around, Ollie might not have the most neutral opinion there.
Ah, there's trouble. One of the 'dumbest members' I spoke of.
Interesting. Like Spectrum energy-lite. Something OL could help her with, perhaps.
Likely checking he can identify the thrower once he starts looking. The problem is if the crowd panics at the obvious cape advancing on them.
Very much not able to easily generate multiple constructs at once, for one thing. And limited to human-level senses.
Best to snip that plan in the bud, and snuff out the flame.
that hand-to-hand training coming in handy for once.
Yup. You're nicked, mate.
Excellent, prompt response time and a nice visible hand-off to the regular cop. Should help defuse any tension in the crowd.
Yes, a very obvious powered individual stepping in will do that. They should be a little more polite now.
Best to find out for sure, I suppose.
Gent definitely has issues with someone or something going on. Might need further investigation. Maybe a training case for the rookies?
I hope they listen, but somehow, I suspect molotov guy wasn't alone.
Yeah, even if no-one got hit, the intent was still there. Also, trying to elbow OL in the face probably qualifies as assault and attempted battery?
Interesting. I guess she's public enough that her abilities are generally known. Hard to be discreet with brushed-silver skin.
Right, time for business.
No doubt people filming this too. First meeting of these two known capes in public? cape-watchers will be marking that in their calendars.
No interference between the two, unlike mixed-Spectrum constructs. So it's not Spectrum energy, certainly.
Yes, well, unless that skin comes with durability enhancements, she's still quite squishy...
I mean, she probably doesn't usually get much excitement like that day-to-day.
Curiosity about her constructs? Professional interest in her origins? Helping out the rookie? So many reasons.
Been a long time since anyone called him that. I guess she doesn't eat much Cadbury's.
Admittedly, she may not be able to generate that much plasma anyway. Most comics references point to small-scale blasts and simple shapes of modest size...
That's two public approaches by OL. Wonder if the other Team members are being this open about making contact with their prospective recruits? Just imagine what the cape-watching communities will be saying about all this. Never mind all the conspiracy theorists...
