Hey, Martha? Let's watch something funny tonight. I could use something verging on mindless.

[Private to the Admiral]

I'd like Sylar's ice powers returned to him, please. Is that possible?

[Private to Jason Bourne]

I need to talk to you, about our inmates.

[Private to Sylar, added later]

We need to talk.

Uh - no, [Tim said, blinking at that question. He wasn't that bad. Really!

Sitting on the other side of the couch, a smile quirked on corner of his mouth, and he glanced over at her.] He got a contractor? Is there a special villains' contractor in your world, too, or are the regular ones just dumb?

"A villains' contractor? There's an entire villains' industry. I even went to an expo a little while back." She leaned back, crossing her legs. "Everybody's got their own gimmicks but in the end some things are just universal - henchmen, death rays, boobytrapped lairs? It's a growing market. If I didn't enjoy the field work so much I might've gone into consulting, I hear that's where the real money is."

[Tim snorted, shaking his head.] Try multiversal. I know of a handful back home that do the same. Dunno if I'd call what they do an expo, though. More like underground auctions.

"Yeah, well, let me refer you back to the general incompetence of our police force. Underground wasn't really all that necessary. They probably saw the costumes and the ridiculous weapons and just assumed the whole thing was a bunch of rich comic-book nerds."

[He blinked. There were dirty cops, and then there were bad cops.] ...Wow.

[Spam] - SO I JUST FORGOT THIS WAS HAPPENING OOPS

"Uh huh. But hey, as international supervillain gatherings went, it was all kinda harmless until somebody's credit card gets declined."

[Spam] - LOL no worries

[peektuttut]

I can't believe you've got credit cards. What happens then, the henchmen turn on you?

[Spam] - I know you're on hiatus. :| *tags anyway*

[gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, more or less. Jack Hench's security detail is pretty intense." She leaned back, tucking her hands behind her head. "Also, suitcases of cash are kind of passé - and would you believe that career criminals write the occasional bad check? What else would we use?"

[Spam] - I suck at hiatus. :|

[peektuttut]

[He snorted, shrugging.] You've got a point, I guess. It's still a little ridiculous, when you think about it.
