We Will NOT Play DnD

Securty on board the Unstoppable Fortress is not, as it turns out, totally fortress-like. Call it a consequence of turning something like that into a messy corporate operation. Kimon has a good reason to take a lot of interest in what's on Lawry's computer.

Kimon's schemes are at last approaching their dreaded culmination. The constant planning helps make sure the foreseeable faults can't materialize, but even the most meticulous plans can fail to account for the unforeseeable. There's no choice but to leap ahead and into the fire!

When you've invested all you have into a single career path or dream, it's hard to just cut your losses and walk away. The prospect becomes even worse when it feels like the whole setup was rigged in the first place, and the only answers were ones somebody else chose for you.

You can't simply introduce something like a flying, amphibious fortress to a city and not upset some people. You have consult with so many experts! There's city planners, zoning laws, and let's not forget about whoever owns the original rights to the plans.

Following a disaster like a failed mission, a certain amount of introspection is required. Yes, it all went wrong, but it went wrong in far, far too many ways. Everyone knows it, and everyone has to face it in their own ways. Even Lightshow has some good reasons to speak up.

Being a super hero is an unusual craft. Now, technically, you can hang a guy from a lightpost with a note saying "this dude done crimes" duct-taped to his forehead, and if that guy were someone like the Joker, who the police already had incontrovertible, video evidence of as a criminal, then they can still take the Joker in. There are those criminals, however, which require a little due process and so on, for whom the ol' lightpost trick is not sufficient.

Investigation takes time, but business works on a schedule of quarterly reports. Lawry understands this better than anyone, and though the team itself might have liked to do some genuine police work for once, good business always supercedes good quality.

Evil works on a slope. At the very top are the people making small concessions in the hope things will turn out for the greater good. At the bottom of that slope, it would turn out, are men like Captain Guei.

It turns out there are a few confounds present aboard Captain Guei's ship aside from Captain Guei and his crew, and this means that the party has to figure out what to do with them. However, there are easy ways, and there are ethical ways.

Being super and special doesn't necessarily mean having more power. Sure, Superman is immune to bullets, which makes him a safe bet to walk directly into a line of fire, but that'd make him more valuable as a tank than anything. What makes a person truly special is the ability to do insane things, like hiding in a box for two weeks. Not only can nobody else do it, but most people would never have the discipline to try.
