Thread Roulette: Superheroes!

[Event !]

Paper Mache Girl (Aisling MacGreery) is called upon to solve a crisis! All over the country, all the toilet paper is missing from the bathrooms! Luckily, her super friends (Nathan Reed, Andrei McQueen, Jordan Scholl) are on their way to help her out.

Rules: Aisling starts, and she gets to name the next superhero to come into the thread. The next one names the one after that, and so on. And these superheroes behave exactly like their names, so have fun with this and try to screw over the next person coming in.

[Aisling MacGrory]

Paper Mache girl stared at the readout she'd gotten from headquarters, and really, really wished that one of her allies happened to be on hand to receive it. For one thing, she wasn't exactly sure how the hell she was supposed to communicate that there was a crisis on hand when she couldn't talk. For another, she wasn't sure that she really had the appropriate skills. Paper mache used paper... and she had quite a few projects going on right now.

Did Aisling cause the shortage?

No time to worry about that. Because someone else was arriving in the headquarters now. From the sounds of the entry, it was one of Aisling's comrades, and one with a much, much more useful power than Paper Mache.

It was the Great Muppet, known for only speaking and attacking enemies through cleverly designed puppets! Aisling saw her comrade coming, and quickly signed, hoping that the Great Muppet remembered the emergency sign language courses that doubtless were dropped from the sky upon his foam head.

Thank God you are here, Great Muppet! We have a crisis! See, it is on the screen and everything she signed, pointing at the screen as she finished.

{to clarify: The Great Muppet, uses muppets. Have fun.}

[Dr. Nathan Reed]

"I'm sorry I'm late!"

Nathan burst into HQ - or rather, the Great Muppet burst into HQ - communicating through a pastel green hand-rod Muppet with a shock of orange hair and a blue nose.

"I was busy performing an incredibly dangerous emergency surgery for the benefit of red-haired lepers. What's so important that you'd pull me away from that, Paper Mache Girl?"

It really was lucky that, to become one with the Muppets, he had taken all manner of body language courses, including at least five different types of sign language and flag semaphore. A skill that had come in handy on many a boating crisis! And, surprisingly enough, in many a medical crisis as well. Who knew? Turning to look at the screen, the Great Muppet gasped theatrically.

"Oh, this is far beyond my expertise," he lamented, bowing both his heads in shame. "What we need here is -" Some shuffling occurred, and the Muppet's appearance mysteriously changed! "- a quick costume change! And now, with my Paper-Related Supplies mode, I'm ready to take on this challenge! But we still need -- oh, here he comes!"

The now-skyblue-with-a-red-nosed Muppet pointed to the entrance, where the third of their group stood.

"Thank God you're here, Dictionary Definition Man! What's your take on this travesty?"

[[Note: Dictionary Definition Man only speaks in dictionary definitions. Have fun~!]]

[Andrei McQueen]

Paul had his head down low as he spoke when he entered the room with his other comrades "--feeling or expressing sympathy, pity, or regret" It wasn't like him to be not there when they needed him. The sudden crisis pulled him away from his beautiful morning when he discovered his roll of toilet paper disappear when he took a dump. Please don't ask what he used as substitute.

Paul laid his hand on his chest as to speak with relations to himself and what was his reasons on being there. "-to solve, -to decipher, -to unravel"

Before he could give out his solution to the crisis at hand, they heard footsteps from the outside and knew it could only come from one person. The loud thumps and the spelling of words could only mean one person. It was CheerBoy!

[[ Note: CheerBoy is a cheerleader. He speaks and acts like one, He spells words too. Have fun]]

[Jordan Scholl]

"All right!" Jordan said as he cartwheeled into the room. "Let's get this started. S-T-A-R-T-E-D!"

He looked at all his compatriots, smiling broadly and his hands on his hips in proper formation. CheerBoy did not wear a skirt, he wore the shorts and tight shirt that male cheerleaders sometimes wore, but the white shoes were a universal thing.

He did front flips up to the computer. "So what's the sitch?" he asked, looking over Paper Mache Girl's shoulder. "Like, TP troubles? That's so totally last century." He waved his hand dismissively, then reached into his back pocket and pulled out a piece of gum, popping it into his mouth and chewing loudly.

"Hey Muppet, quick costume change? Like, what we really need is a pilot. Who's going to get us to the scene of the crime?" He blew a large bubble and popped it loudly, then went on chewing noisily. Spying something on the other side of the room, he frowned, squinting at a slightly open cupboard. He somersaulted across the room and flung open the door, revealing a large stash of toilet paper.

"Hey, looks like someone's been holding out on us. Does someone have something they'd, you know, like to share?" He frowned at the others in the room.



[OOC: I'm sorry, I didn't even realize this thread existed until today. <.<]

[Aisling MacGrory]

We can use the paper mache plane! signed Aisling, almost excitedly. She'd just finished making the plane the other day, and she hadn't had a chance yet to take anyone up with it. Never mind that paper mache generally didn't fly or produce anything that could fly. That was what having that as a power meant.

Plus, Aisling was already excited because all her friends, err, coworkers were there. Dictionary Definition Man was always interesting, and while Cheerboy might sometimes get on Aisling's nerves, you couldn't deny his pep. Or his insight: because he totally just revealed a large stash that had been hidden away.

That's not actually toilet paper, signed Aisling, stepping forward. She tugged at it, till the whole thing came out. It looked to be some kind of strange creature constructed entirely out of paper mache. Yes, said mache had been made to look like TP, as had the creation itself. But it was quite clearly a Muppet.

Signing one handed was going to be awkward, so Aisling handed the creation off to the man who could operate it best: The Great Muppet, then signed: It's the special project that The Great Muppet and I have been working on. Maybe he can ask it if it knows where we could get TP!

Hey, it was worth a shot. Not like this was making any sense so far anyway.
