No you can't!

Who: Eusine and Miko
Where: Somewhere in LA /gestures vaguely
When: M-M-M-MUSICAL EVENT
What: The Mysticalman comes across an annoyingly slippery bad guy. Miko comes across the Mysticalman. It all goes downhill from here.
Warnings: Extreme losers


It's not a good day for Eusine. Catching that petty robber should have been a piece of cake, really. Some D-lister with a guitar? Frankly, it's almost insulting that you would even suggest he's incapable of handling this.

And yet... cornering him took a ludicrous amount of time. A combination of bad luck and unaligned astral bodies, clearly, and nothing to do with the fact the guy can break glass with his voice. Not a problem for the Mysticalman, master of gadgets! ... is what Eusine would have said, if only one of his rockets hadn't jammed at the exact worst moment, leaving him to continue his pursuit on foot. If not for his amazing tracking skills, the villain might very well have escaped! Oh, the tragedy.

But no matter. No one can escape JUSTICE for very long, especially when JUSTICE is ridiculously tenacious, prone to dramatic speeches and loud enough to drown-out their voice-related powers. Most people would have the good sense to look a tiny bit ashamed for taking so long to catch a mere robber, probably; Eusine, however, is leaning more towards satisfied smugness as he ties the criminal up, because being humble is clearly for people with no faith in their own abilities.

Yep. Totally got this.

Miko is drawn toward the sound of a fight like a moth to a flame, so it's no surprise that, having heard of a robbery in the area already, she ends up tracking the source down without too much trouble. She's had a lot of practice at this.

It also helps that she can tell from a pretty good distance who one of the people involved is. By the time she reaches the scene, she's already pocketed her phone - she's just going to go in assuming this isn't newsworthy. "Yo, Eu-" Wait no, wrong name, he'd throw a fit. "You!" She's still not using that ridiculous alias, though.

Then she gets a better look at the situation, and the beginnings of a smirk start to creep onto her face. "I take it you're just now finishing up here?" The choice of emphasis is far from subtle. Just now. As in not sooner than now. As in holy crap considering how long ago that robbery was, shouldn't you have caught this loser long ago.
