That joke was a lot funnier when I wrote it down
While it was frowned upon, it wasn't uncommon to find someone sleeping in M5. But Adam was always the one everyone knew he was sleeping.
"Will someone please shut him up!" One of the many interns complained with their head buried in some paperwork "I can't work while he's sleeping!"
"He's not asleep," Said the female intern at the desk over "he's sawing logs." Even though the intern desks where in their own part of the shop, the hero's snores were powerful enough to make their bullet proof windows shake.
They tried to keep working, they really did, but eventually the loud noise started to get to them. "Ah, that's it! Let's prank him!" yelled the youngest intern.
"Prank a superhero?"
"Yeah!" he said excitable, only to get a lot of concerned looks from his coworkers "Oh come one, he shouldn't be sleeping in the shop in the first place. Let's just stick his hand in some water or something."
"You know that doesn't work right?" said the female intern.
"What, no it totally does!" said the one in the desk across from her.
As more of the interns voiced their opinion, it became clear that the opinion was split down the middle on whether or not it would work.
"Whelp!" said the first intern "Threes only one way to find out! Let's do it"
And that was how a group of sort of paid interns found themselves sneaking though M5 with a bowl of hot water to dip their bosses hand into it. As they approached the sleeping hero, the shacking from the snoring became more violent. "Just a little bit further" said the intern holding the bowl "just a little-" suddenly a particularly loud snore accompanied by Adam decided to shift caused the intern to tip the bowl just enough to dump the bowl onto their boss.
"Well…" said the female intern "at least he will think it worked…"
