fasterthanOutside 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?]

no subject
Date: 2011-12-04 04:21 am (UTC)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 subject
Date: 2011-12-04 05:10 am (UTC)Hey man, a healthy breakfast is something every hero needs to start the day.
Nah, I'm from Central City. And we don't have Avengers... we've got the Justice League, though.
no subject
Date: 2011-12-04 04:00 pm (UTC)Central City? Where's that?
no subject
Date: 2011-12-04 05:49 pm (UTC)Huh. I'm thinking this is one of those "different universe" type dealies.
no subject
Date: 2011-12-04 08:44 pm (UTC)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.
no subject
Date: 2011-12-05 05:18 am (UTC)I got a pretty good taste of the whole "other universe" thing on my first day here, and I also live with a talking pony, so I guess it's easy for me to remember.
Also we've had to deal with some pretty whacked-out alternate universes back home, so there's all that too.

Spider-Man...?
Just asking out of curiosity. You understand.
no subject
Date: 2011-12-05 05:42 am (UTC)Nope, never heard of him. Why?
no subject
Date: 2011-12-05 05:50 am (UTC)Er... no reason, I guess. I just, uh, heard he's in town here someplace, so I was curious.
no subject
Date: 2011-12-05 05:52 am (UTC)Well hey, if I see him I'll let you know. What's he look like? What's he do?
no subject
Date: 2011-12-05 06:22 am (UTC)no subject
Date: 2011-12-05 06:34 pm (UTC)He grins.]
Awesome, I'll totally keep an eye out for him.
