WHO: Xanatos & you!
WHERE: Various locations.
WHEN: All throughout Sunday.
WARNINGS: Dumb NPC villains. Aside from that, none, will edit if needed.
SUMMARY: I've put up a few scenarios under the cut-feel free to tag into them with whatever you want! Also, if you've got something else in mind, feel free just to make it up. c: I'm chill.
FORMAT: Starting off with para, but I'm fine with whatever.

scenario a:
It was rare that Xanatos got more than eight hours of sleep in a row. Usually, he tended to do multiple, small powernaps-a sleeping schedule created thanks to his need to be awake to run a business during the day and awake to deal with the gargoyles at night. However, last night he had crashed and slept for a full twelve or so hours. And as if to spite him, his freezer had broken sometime during the night. Moments like this made him want to move out of the MAC. So, he had thrown out the food that was ruined and called a repairman. Xanatos stood outside of the MAC, slightly irritated look on his face, idly flipping through a magazine while he waited for the repairman to show up.

scenario b:
What do you do after your freezer ruins all your frozen food? Buy more, of course. So, one freezer repair later, and Xanatos is at the supermarket, standing in front of the frozen foods section. He always trusted frozen foods over fresh foods. While he enjoyed fresh food, he was used to a more hectic way of life and long nights at the office. Frozen foods were the safer option that had less chance of spoiling on him. So, he stood in front of the frozen food freezers, debating between two brands of frozen vegetables and probably blocking someone's way.

scenario c:
Every now and then he took his exosuit out for a spin. After all, he wanted to keep the thing in good working condition. He usually did a brief flyover, but tonight was different. Tonight he happened to come across some skinny lunatic in a costume who had decided that two am was the perfect time to rob a theater. Part of him thought to just leave this for the cops, but what the heck. He was in his exosuit which could fly, had weapons and, most importantly, had a helmet to hide his identity from any gawping tourists. He could do this!

So, one fight scene later, Xanatos is standing outside of the theater, still in his ridiculous exosuit, wondering just what exactly to do now and holding onto The Terrible Tony (was that really his name) while he screams about "the bitch of living" and how "any scream will do." Why didn't they include some 'how to be a superhero' information in the pamphlet?

"Excellent. Daedalus, newly-arrived ImPort superhero. Presumably a vigilante in your own world," Mordin said. "Which city were you active in, Daedalus? Police might ask."

The exchange was evolving into an impromptu dress rehearsal for Daedalus' big reveal to the world, a reveal that likely would happen any minute, when the police arrived. This was probably why Mordin liked it- an unexpected chance to use his improve theatre experience!
heal_or_execute: (Deeply conflicted regarding genophage)

"And how did you come across this robbery?" Mordin was unconsciously adopting the posture and attitude of a questioning police officer, slipping into the role. "Alarm signal? Radio scan? Routine patrol?"
heal_or_execute: (Intriguing problem.)

"Should work," Mordin said. He opened his mouth to say something more, but was cut off by the high-pitched squeal of approaching sirens.

"No more time to discuss," he murmured, stepping back to let the City's newest hero handle the authorities. "Police arriving. Ready?"
