A Press-ing Announcement

The Second Episode

It's been a week since our heroes made their first public appearance in Detroit. Their first villain, a pyromaniac who had made the dumb choice of burning an apartment building that was actually inhabited, was behind bars. However, the team would not have time to sit on their laurels for long!

The city might know they exist, but they certainly don't know  who  their new protectors were, not really. And so a press conference was scheduled by NASP and our heroes were summoned to meet up with Shannon ahead of time, asked to bring their full kit.

After what was a very brief and (debatably) productive three on six interview with the heads of several emergency services, including the fire department and DPD, the time was finally here for our heroes to make their first big public appearance. Shannon, bless her, tried to give them advice on how to handle this situation, starting with the order to not giving real names.

And "Gerard", bastard that he is, decided to ignore that, because that just how it be sometimes.

In what ended up being a hot mess of a conference, where Xavier tried to keep the answers civil, and "Gerard" decidedly did not try to keep answers civil, questions were answered. However, for the citizens of Detroit, the conference left them with more questions than they had answers.

And then "Gerard", in a show that he really has no idea of when to shut up, threatened the general public with kneecap shattering if they dared break the law.

Shannon needed a drink after that.

And then, that night at 10pm, the team received a text message. What was that text message? that was something the team would have to find out next time!
