...and that means what to me?

Re: [Audio]

[gokai_red]

Probably not a thing, but I know a lot about claims of "ultimate" or "greatest" powers and/or treasures.

Usually hit or miss whether or not they're worth it, but hey. What can you do.

[Audio]

[spirits_of_the_air]

This one was real and I'd consider it worth it.

Re: [Audio]

[gokai_red]

Oh, it's not that they're not.

Just a lot of times, it might not be what you expect.

Makes me wonder about what folks are hunting for around here.

[Audio]

[spirits_of_the_air]

The Ultimate Power certainly wasn't what I'd expected, but I'm starting to take that as the norm.

Re: [Audio]

[gokai_red]

If that's what you come to expect, you're probably better off than most people.

[Audio]

[spirits_of_the_air]

You don't have to worry about me having some stupid, naive sense of how the world works.

Re: [Audio]

[gokai_red]

Again, you're a hell of a lot better off than most, then.

[Audio]

[spirits_of_the_air]

Flattery won't get you anywhere unless you have a real deal to offer me.

[Audio]

[gokai_red]

Just might eventually.

For now, gotta narrow down my own direction.

[Audio]

[spirits_of_the_air]

Clearly, I'm not hard to reach. And my name's Ihrie.

[Audio]

[gokai_red]

Captain Marvelous.

I get the feeling I'll need to keep a good eye on anyone with skills in this place.

[Audio]

[spirits_of_the_air]

Captain Marvelous, really? And here I thought my captain had a stupid name.

[Audio]

[gokai_red]

[Audible snort.]

Hrmph.

[Audio]

[spirits_of_the_air]

Really, what's with having extravagant names? One works just fine for me and most people.

[Audio]

[gokai_red]

I don't know, it's my name.

[Audio]

[spirits_of_the_air]

Your mother really named you Marvelous?

[Audio]

[gokai_red]

And?

[Audio]

[spirits_of_the_air]

You had to have been teased as a kid.

[Audio]

[gokai_red]

Had bigger concerns then.

[Audio]

[spirits_of_the_air]

Let me guess, you were tasked with saving the world or something as ridiculous.

Re: [Audio]

[gokai_red]

As a kid? No.

[Audio]

[spirits_of_the_air]

Oh... one of those hero-types. Gotcha.

[Audio]

[gokai_red]

[Loud, audible snort.]

Hardly.

[Audio]

[spirits_of_the_air]

Then what are you?
