@ CAPE AND COWL

[oww_myhead]

Hey. Hey no, remember, we retired? And I went on to superhero afterlife. Stuff happened! Sure, maybe I miss some people maybe a lot and stuff and yeah but c'mon, this means I have to deal with people like, oh I don't know, the Riddler again.

And we all know how much I loooove Eddiekins. Which is a negative amount, by the way.

Let's think about this! What's that place need me for, besides a couple of laughs? I'm sure there are plenty of humor-infused individuals at the City that can fulfill this roll without my presence perfectly fine. Look, even Jaime is still there! He's got this!

...While we were having this very one-sided argument, you went and did it anyway. That's great. That's just freakin' great, now we're committed.

Sigh. Maybe I can just quietly sneak in and pretend I forgot everything. Like you'll let me do that.

Oh boy. This really will be some reunion special, won't it?

[oww_myhead]

Excuse me, I left my words in the other Beetle suit.

[retconman]

It's official, then: I really am cornering the market on ways to shut you up.

[ Ever in bad taste. ]

[oww_myhead]

It's all right, I'm pretty sure I can find that other Beetle suit pretty fast.

How's the neck.

[enigmaestro]

I'm the Deputy Mayor now.

Hello, Ted.

1/2

[oww_myhead]

JUST MY LUCK!

[oww_myhead]

Hi, Eddie. How are ya.

[enigmaestro]

Oh, I've been managing -- the whole rise to political power thing is a bit fun, I must admit.

Should I return the pet name in turn, or is that overkill? I hesitate to commit to the latter as Maxwell Lord has already spoken here.

[oww_myhead]

Oh, I'm fine, too, by the way. Great even. There were cheeseburgers in superhero afterlife. I loved it.

Consider the pet name calling a challenge. Is the challenge accepted, Sir Eddles?

[boobwindow]

Who really retires in this business, right?

[oww_myhead]

True story.

How you doin', Karen?

[boobwindow]

Not looking forward to having to deal with Max, but getting to stretch my legs after some time is pretty nice.

... It'll be good to see you, you know?

[oww_myhead]

Yeahhh, well, I don't think either of us are gonna have a ball with that.

It-- yeah. I'm looking forward to seeing you again.

[hexappeal]

You can't retire. It would mean that we've never met.

[oww_myhead]

I'd retire if I was allowed! But I'm never allowed, so. There you go.

[hexappeal]

Tough break. It's not so bad, really.

Well. Depending.

[oww_myhead]

I guess that depends on what's waiting for me back in the City. This is... what, my second time back?

[tora_olafsdotter]

Ted!

[Have a very happy demigoddess hug]

[oww_myhead]

Tora!

[Confused embrace!]

You're looking very... lively...

[tora_olafsdotter]

If you mean alive then yes I am. It seems where I am at they decided to bring me back well before the way other places did, and much better if you ask me.

It's good to see you alive too! I was really upset when I heard what happened.

[8x10s_on_request]

...

*so much hugging*

[oww_myhead]

Whoa-- hey!

[Three thumps on the back, man.]

Good to see you too, Booster.

[8x10s_on_request]

*He eventually lets Ted go*

Missed you, man.

[oww_myhead]

Missed you, too.

Your hair looks a little thinner, though.

[meowminx]

How quickly they forget, hmm?
