The Lamplighters Omnibus

Reader mode
[X] Politely decline Sung's offer and go get set up on your own. You think you need a little time to yourself. Or maybe a lot. If unpacking and setting up isn't distracting or therapeutic enough at least you'll have some privacy to lie down and hope your stomach stops feeling so tight. [+1 PP]

Building up those Plot Points before we need them sounds good.
 
Alright then this team could...

Use some work.

[X] Introduce yourself to 'Caio'. He seems to be one of two Lamplighters you haven't seen hide nor hair of yet, so you're kind of curious. Sung seems to think he won't be such a shock to the system as the girls, too.

And who are you?
 
[X] Introduce yourself to Florence. Surely you can get past the initial standoffish phase and build a healthy working relationship, right? All you have to do is stroll over there and politely introduce yourself. Dirt-simple. Ahaha... ha... [-1 PP]
 
[X] Accept Sung's offer. He seems nice enough and normal enough, and he's not visibly creeped out so that's another plus. Introduce yourself to him properly, maybe get to know him a little.

Lets have a chat with the dude who has an intact sense of shame. There are still many important things to learn about our new home, like the wifi password.

I wanna go see the merman! He's totally a merman, without a doubt.

And just like that, you've grabbed my interest.

[ ] Introduce yourself to Kate. Okay so that introduction might've filled your head with a thousand and one reasons why you don't want to go and bother her for no reason, especially alone, but... t-teambuilding? [-1 PP]

We have no PP, so I don't think we can choose these.

Mother Russia is the shit.

Although gotta admit, I'm a little intrigued by our friendly neighborhood Abe Sapien.

We should at least get set up and find out if there's WiFi before running off in search of mermaids or irritable Russians with superstrength. Besides, I think our intrepid protagonist has enough empathy for Sung to allow him an attempt at salvaging this terrible first impression, and Sung seems... sane. Rarer than being riddled with idiosyncrasies and/or bullet holes, in the superhero business. Let the man help, he'll feel useful and maybe we'll learn something.

Token Sane Guy on the team!

I have a feeling I will really like Kate when John gets to introductions. Which, given the initial impression, might take a while. *sigh*

This seems like the most logical choice, he's offering to help us, it would be rude to turn him down.

I dunno who this Jackal character is, but Anubis is the one guy that never really lost that 'untouchable god' mystique stuff supers had back in the real early days. He's on a whole 'nother level.

What are you talking about? It says his name is Jackal right here:

See, it tells us that his name is Jackal, it never really mentions it other-

Okay so technically it's my fault because I apparently couldn't read like three lines ahead but I'm blaming you.
 
Anyway I'm kinda hoping our "merman" is closer to this:




That is, if he is a merman at all.

Amazing. We have maybe found the one hero team that's actually not all that threatening to John and it's because they're broke concrete and buried the bar. Yeesh.

Honestly I could go for either this or the Sung option, Sung's nice and pretty normal and seems to be the only one here who's bothered at how shitty it is. But Caio is a merman mysterybox and, y'know, that's always exciting.

You can you'd just need to do a write in basically for why he would do this thing.
