[004] - Action!

Outside 1665 Nelson and around town.
[So yeah that event wasn't so fun but HEY NOW THERE IS A PACKAGE ADDRESSED TO WALLY.

Excellent.

He opens it up and... there's nothing inside. Weird. He shakes it a little, as if that would dislodge something hidden but... there's nothing inside.

But. Hey. He's...

...feeling pretty speedy.

He grins, and without a second thought he sprints down the road at about sixty miles an hour.

And then he starts going faster.

And faster.

He's circled the town a few times over the course of the next ten minutes at speeds approaching the speed of sound, which is pretty damn fast, okay. But by the time he zips back to the mailbox at 1665 Nelson, he's frowning a little.]


...still not fast enough. But hey, better than nothing.

[And then he realizes.]

...oops. I hope no one noticed that.

[Because he just raced around Mayfield in civilian clothes. Not exactly conducive to a secret identity.

Over the course of the day you might see your friendly neighborhood Flash, in full costume, racing around town. There's not a whole lot to do, but man it feels good to be running again, even if it's not as fast as he can go normally. Give a shout, he may stop and talk to you!

Of course, it's also possible you might have caught a glimpse of Wally running around this morning in his normal clothes out of the corner of your eye. Maybe. It's possible. But are you really sure?]

"Hi Dash"? Is that all you've got to say?

When were you gonna tell me you could run that fast?!

Have you forgotten where we are? [A derisive sneer.] Even if the Big Blue Boy Scout was here, I highly doubt there's a thing he could do to help.

[Waves back, because why not.

Though, the attempt to keep up is ruined when The Captain slams head first into a tree.

The tree is destroyed and The Captain lands somewhere with the debris.]

Please. If the "World's Greatest Detective" couldn't figure this place out, what chance would he have? Hmm?

[Well. There goes the last of Peter's piece of cake, which falls to the sidewalk with an shipbuilding splat.]

...Show off.

(OOC: wow, "shipbuilding"!? Thanks for nothing autocorrect.)

[Peter blinks, impressed and grateful. He gives Wally a once-over. Standard hero attire, cocky grin.]

Whoa! Guess you really ARE a superhero, huh?

[He shakes it.]
Yeah? Well, I may not be the fastest man alive, but I now have 50% less sugar, and I'm a part of your balanced breakfast.

Name's Peter Parker, nice to meet ya. I don't think I've heard of ya... You a New York based hero? Heard of the Avengers, by any chance?

[no such luck, Wally. Look closer - there's a hair bun sticking up over the hedge behind you.

And she heard him say that, too.]


Whoops, was I not supposed to see that dearie?

Well, that's not bad at all. Would you like for me time you? It'd be nice to have some kind of guidelines about your speed.

[identity profile] battymadam.livejournal.com 2011-12-04 11:41 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm... well, sorry! Ya passed by so many times, I think the afterimage stuck. Almost dropped my scissors, too.

[because she is clipping the hedges, yes this is totally innocuous behavior.]

[Hm... Peter doesn't think he's heard of the Justice League. Which PROBABLY means they're not from Earth, though it could just be a brand new te-- no, they don't know the Avengers. EVERYONE knows the Avengers. Definitely not from Earth, though he LOOKS human. ...But so does Thor.]

Central City? Where's that?

[Peter slaps his forehead. DOY! Of course its a multi universe thing! He can't believe he forgot the GIANT (well...for a rodent) hedgehog that spoke English, wore shoes and had a bad attitude.]

Oh! Yeah, you're probably right. I just haven't seen any superheroes yet besides the ones from my 'hood, so...

ER... not that, uh, I know ageing about parallel universes beyond, like, Star Trek. Heh.
