Comments

No other sarcastic comment about his superhero name? Success. Proof that obnoxiousness will always win!

"It's a pleasure to meet you as well!" He beams, seemingly taking no offence with her (obviously good-natured) snorting. "Under better circumstances, that is."

Implying "somewhere other than a cyborg-infested alleyway" is for losers, clearly.

"So..." he resumes, a slight smirk tugging at his lips. "Do you make it a habit to walk straight into danger, or was that a one-time thing?" He doesn't sound terribly judging. Trying to hit a cyborg with a brick? Yeah, that was stupid. Running straight into the middle of the fray to take pictures? Nothing wrong with that as long as you're careful not to be spotted, right? Totally different.

Knowing would be good though. You know. Just so he can keep an eye out for her.

"Hey, danger means excitement, excitement means a story, right?" She smirks back as she picks up the clothes again. "What about you? Actual prep before stalking monsters just not your style?"

[superball]

"One can hardly prepare oneself without knowing the nature of the threat now, wouldn't you agree?" His expression is somewhere between slight condescension and damage control. Truth be told, he thought the news were exaggerating how dangerous those cyborgs were, and that if all else failed he could just fly away with his rocket spats; he hadn't expected a powerless civilian to be there, or those things to be so ridiculously fast. "Besides, I am usually un-de-tec-ta-ble!"

He says this like he is absolutely convinced of the fact, possibly because he is. Undetectable, in all his purple, white and sparkly glory.

Seems perfectly reasonable, really.

"Riiiiight." Her response is weighted with all the sarcasm and doubt that she can possibly inject into a single word. Which is a lot. "So do you usually wear a different costume then?" It would be practically impossible to mistake that comment as an honest question, considering the smirk it's accompanied by.

For that matter, she doesn't typically have room to complain about other people's clothing choices, but c'mon. Purple spandex.

[superball]

"There's nothing wrong with my costume, no matter what those websites say!" He huffs. He may or may not have seen his costume on "worst superhero outfits" blogs more than once. These people have no taste.

"In any case," his face contorts into a slight smirk, confident he is that he can totally change the course of that discussion back to Miko's lack of stealth, "you're one to talk!"

[pullingamiko]

She raises an eyebrow; she hadn't even mentioned websites, and she considers saying so and making a comment about how he seems awfully defensive here, but his subject change successfully prevents such a reply because wow excuse you.

"Hey, I was doing just fine 'til your loud butt showed up!" she snaps, as if she was being any quieter than him once he was there. "I probably could've stayed there all night if I wanted to!"
