"How does Clockblocker get so many puns in during a fight, anyway?" Asked Aegis.
Gallant shrugged. "Dunno. Maybe he freezes the flow of time, slowing it down enough for him to think faster."
"...He can do that?"
"I can use emotion manipulation to turn trees into deathtraps, and you adapted redundancies to slow your aging, and this surprises you?"
"Touche."
"Anyway, where's Vista?"
"..."
"...Dammit. Not again."
"I. Have. All The Kitties!"
"Vista, stop using your powers for Evil."
"How is playing with all the kittens in the world Evil?"
"You stole them."
"If the universe didn't want me to be cute with kittens, then why did I get space warping powers?"
"Because... Dammit, I can't argue with that logic."
"-s the dread watcher observed her hunting group, sh-"
"Sophia, what have I told you about narrating."
"Only do it when I get my movie deal."
"I'm fairly certain that's not what I said, but good enough."
"Now go awa- Oh! Grue!"
"No killing people under the age of eighteen."
"I won't!"
As Gallant walked away, Sophia smiled. "I'm just going to make some friends."
"Regent, no."
"Come on."
"No."
"I'll give you a million dollars."
"No."
"Two million dollars."
"No."
"A billion dollars."
"No."
"I'll seduce your sister if you don't."
"...Low blow, Regent."
"C'mon Grue."
He sighed. "Fine."
"Now, the next girl we meet, ask her if she has a permit to look so pretty."
"As long as you stay away from my sister."
"Deal."
Grue turned around, and was punched in the face by Shadow Stalker.
Grue blinked, looked at her, then glared at Regent.
The supervillain gave him thumbs up.
Grue sighed, and turned back to Shadow Stalker. "Hey, do yo-"
"You know, Stalker-"
"Shut up, Clockblocker."
"I always thought that I'd be the first one to get seduced by a supervillain."
"When I take over the world, you die first."
Panacea walked in. "Okay, who needs resurrecting."
"We haven't seen Miss Militia in an hour." Replied Gallant. "Armsmaster lost sight of her during a fight."
In the distance, an exploding sound could be heard.
"I think she went that way." Said Clockblocker, waving his hand in the general direction of the blast. "Just a hunch."
