open log!

[eatsnutsandkicksbutts]

WHO: Doreen and you! OTA!
WHERE: Around Heropa
WHEN: Any time during the last week of October
WHAT: Just an open log for some slice-of-life settling in stuff. PM me or hit me up on plurk (sonopants) if you'd like a prompt, or feel free to toss in your own!
WARNINGS: naaaaah



A) Squirrel Girl - crime fighting and patrolling!

[ SG loves being a superhero, and while Heropa isn't nearly as active as Maurtia Falls in the crime department, there are still muggings to interrupt, rooftops to bound over, and would-be criminals to lecture. Squirrel Girl can be found doing all three, at some point!

You might happen upon her in the middle of a mugging, ducking punches, knocking people out of the way with her tail, and in one unfortunate mugger's case, grabbing the guy by the scruff of the neck and tossing him into the air 'til she has time to deal with him.

When she's out on patrol, SG leaps from rooftop to power pole to streetlight effortlessly... although she makes the occasional pitstop for ice cream trucks or food vendors that offer vegetarian options.

And as for talking to criminals... well, sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't. A few of them actually take the business cards that she's started carrying in her utility belt; they're generally for employment agencies or counseling services. If the potential criminals don't want to talk, and the conversations turn violent, well... see above for how she handles things in a fight. ]


B) Doreen - hangin' in the park with some pals

[ When she isn't superhero-ing around Heropa, SG doubles down on her secret identity. Doreen Green, who doesn't have a tail (that certainly isn't hidden down her pants!) and only talks to squirrels because she's eccentric, is a completely normal civilian. Er. ImPort. ImPort who is easily identified as such thanks to the tattoo on her wrist, and who happens to have superpowers, like all the other interdimensional kidnapping victims currently living here.

... It's possible that Doreen's been having some doubts about the whole secret identity thing, under the circumstances.

Anyway! Today is a day for relaxing, and the best place to do that is in the local park. When she's pretty sure that noone is looking, Doreen steps off the beaten path and goes into a more wooded area of the park, where she sits down at the base of a tree, takes a handful of nuts out of her pocket, and makes a few squirrel-like chirps under her breath. Within minutes, she's surrounded by squirrels, and looking happier than she's been since she arrived. Judging by the excited chirps, squeaks and trills she's getting in return, they're pretty glad to see her, too. ]


C) Wildcard, anything goes!

[The park was always Komasan's favorite place to take a nap, mostly due to the fact that it was the closest thing he'd ever get to nature. It wasn't uncommon to see him pick a patch a grass and just curl up for a bit after a hard day at work.

...But he's still a dog at heart, and a bunch of excited squirrel chirps easily reach his ears. After said ears twitch once or twice, he sleepily blinks himself awake and before he knows it, his curiosity pulls him towards a rough looking path.

It isn't long before he finds the source of the sound and absolutely loses his mind.]

Monge~! Look at them— There's so many of them, zura~

C: DANCE LESSONS

[primadovea]

[ Yeah, the problem with the whole 'secret identity' thing is that when you tell someone that Squirrel Girl's teaching dance lessons, Mint obviously expects Squirrel Girl to be the teacher and not this Doreen person, who the heck's that, she's obviously not Squirrel Girl.

Needless to say, the poor secretary at the dance studio is having a bit of a hard time due to one Mint Aizawa, who's come in to sit in on Squirrel Girl's dance class just to see how much she needs to teach her. ]

Her name is Squirrel Girl, and she said she was a new teacher here. She's an imPort, like me. [ "Uh, are you sure that-" ] Of course I'm sure her name's Squirrel Girl, why would I say that if it wasn't? Obviously you need to check your roster again!

[ Please help this poor secretary, Doreen. ]

( The young woman has a tail. Cassandra is slowly starting to get used to the idiosyncrasies of this world, and honestly, it's not the strangest thing she's seen since she's arrived here; indeed, it's not even the strangest sight she's had today. Still, the woman's considerable skill does not go unnoticed by Cassandra, and when Squirrel Girl is lining up at an ice-cream van, Cassandra makes her approach. Despite her friends' best attempts, she is still dressed in the clothes of her own world, although her armor is looking more dinted than it once had. )

I've been watching you.

( She has never been known for her subtlety. )

[ Laurie's still working on not being the lamest patroller out of every hero around here. She can't do much leaping around Heropa, or pull out a vast array of neat defense moves, or anything like that! It's more like she strolls around waiting to stumble onto some wrong-doing. She should stick to assignments and call-upons, really. It's not unusual for another hero to make the scene before her.

Case in point... Laurie rounds a building to find another girl trying to talk down a criminal. She slows her approach, not wanting to upset the situation but not wanting to leave entirely, just in case. This person's... Animal-themed? And did she mention support groups? She's turned to get something from her belt, and that's when the guy she's confronting moves. He's got a knife and he's lunging forward all of a sudden. ]

Ohmygod! Watch out!

[ Laurie's running forward, too, the air around her pheromone-spiked. There's not much she can do in that split-second, though. ]
