A:N/ Damn thing came to me in a fevered dream.

Director Piggot looked at the empty cell. The empty space where Glenn was supposed to be seemed to mock her, more so than usual considering how life seemed to make it a priority to make her existence miserable on general purpose. Piggot wished she was still on dialysis, since it didn't involved getting mixed into the more ridiculous side of capedom.
"So Glenn Chambers had triggered a few hours ago after some pop idol failed to win an election for top starlet in a sham of a contest. He lost his shit, burnt his merchandise, wrote a fifty thousand word screed cursing the production company online, spammed said screed about Idol Hell all over the internet and PHO before he triggered as some Trump who causes young teenage girls to trigger as well?"
Armsmaster wiped off some kind of sparkly dust from the visor on his helmet as he replied.
"Yes, Director. After Glenn was being escorted to a cell for vetting in case of Master/Stranger interference, Shadow Stalker, who was escorting him took one of the name cards that he produced from his suit that appeared on him after he triggered. The accompanying Assault was then taken down by the Mastered Stalker's new abilities."
It was also a very nice suit, thought Armsmaster. Glenn was never a snappy dresser or took much care of his physical appearance despite his position as head of the PRT Public Relations. The trigger took care of that, but those name cards though...
"And Shadow Stalker? Why is she holding an impromptu concert in the cafeteria right now?"
It was worrying, the way Glenn's induced triggers seemed to have a inbuilt Breaker power. Catchy tunes though and Armsmaster liked how the strobe lights complemented Stalker's newly accquired gothic and frilly costume. The catchy pop tune the Ward was currently belting out was full of feel good nonsense and pure cheese. But true to her image, Shadow Stalker's new Song had the right blend of dark imagery, synthesizers and those little crimson devils that appeared when she gives a wink to the audience is simply captivating.
If only said captive audience wasn't the PRT troopers sent in to subdue her, she'd be an epic boon to the Wards' image.
"We've requested Dragon's suits to assist in subduing the Mastered Shadow Stalker, Director. Though if the material we've retrieved from Glenn's suitcase is any indication, the effect shoudl wear off after," The Tinker referred to the purloined document. "The eighth song. When the Live ends."
Piggot rubbed the bridge of her nose. This was going to be one of those capes. Really, really annoying ones. And what the hell is a Live?
"We have a name for our new Trump?"
Armsmaster tried to keep a straight face as he said it. He had lots of practice.
"Producer. The Mastered capes we are referring to as Idols."

Producer Glenn looked over the looked over the crowd pouring out of Winslow High School with a seasoned eye, tutting as he mentally crossed out the possible candidates.
"Hmm, brown with slight freckles. Petite but...not the look I'm going for. Maybe the junior idol sub unit further down the road."
It was so frustrating. The student body at Arcadia had so much potential, but the school administration kept calling the police on him after he approached one of the younger, more promising blondes with his cards. What savages!
"Ahh, that redhead surrounded by the flock looks promising....but she looks too poised. Probably already had some two bit hack sinking his claws into her. Such a waste."
Producer shook his head sadly, stuffing the stack of name cards he had prepared back into his suit pocket. Until he felt his Vision tingle again.
" What's this? How does that beanpole with....wait." The Producer cranked his Vision harder as his gaze drilled towards the gangly girl with the wavy hair currently being talked down to by that redhead. Glenn felt his breath taken away when he saw the potential harbouring within her. He straightened his suit, marching briskly towards the talent currently being crowded around by gawkers following the manufactured redhead.
Bunch of crows squawking about a future graceful swan. Pathetic.
Producer brushed aside the crowd, ignoring their protests and death threats as he produced one of his cards towards the tearing girl who was staring at him with widened eyes. He gave his most sincere smile that somehow got the police called on him in Arcadia. But since it's Winslow, he figured no one will care.
"You have a wonderful smile, Miss. Would you like to be a star?"

"911. What's your emergency."
"...What do you mean you want to report a creepy stalker in a suit handing out name cards?"
