Alright, alright, I got one of those question thingamabobs:

What exactly makes a person dress up in a costume, call themselves something silly, and try and take on the world? Especially if you don't got powers, especially if you can just fall in with the rest of us folks.

I mean, I know why I did it, but I figure that was a special circumstance.

It's usually something about being young, idealistic, and ready to change the world, isn't it?

[kathreptis]

Tried a couple of things myself, but somehow they always managed ending up secondary to the big gig. It can't be helped, I suppose.

[deadthenred]

Maybe. I figured I'd retire, though.

Become a movie star.

[kathreptis]

Now there's an idea. No reason you can't still do it, right?

[deadthenred]

Hah! I'm a bit less symmetrical than I used to be. But I think I'd be have a real knack for being rich and famous. It's a hunch of mine.

[kathreptis]

I think you're absolutely right. I'm definitely getting that sort of vibe from you.

[deadthenred]

I'm gonna take that as a compliment, whether you meant it that way or not.

My names's Bucky.

[kathreptis]

( just a smile, in response to that. she'll let him decide. )

I'm Donna.

[deadthenred]

It's nice to meet you.

I think sometimes about what woulda happened, if I followed my sister's example.

[kathreptis]

Oh, yeah? It's my sister's example that got me into this line of work. Maybe if I'd had a brother it would have been different.

[deadthenred]

Becca never got to know what I was up to.

I wish I could've told her, though. It was- it was real crummy.

[kathreptis]

Sometimes it doesn't help, even if they know.

...sometimes it makes it worse.

[deadthenred]

Yeah. Yeah, it might.
