Episode 1: It's not always sunny after a storm
Characters: Barnaby and YOU!
Setting: Room 2-04, Dormitories, Library, Cafeteria, and Anywhere Else.
Format: Action. I can switch off on demand.
Summary: One retired hero arrives in the Tower and refuses to believe the news.
Warnings: Potential for irritability, deadpan snarking, and a few hints of depression.
Room 2-04:
[The seemingly innocent letter was promptly folded up and tossed away the moment Barnaby finished reading it. First he found himself in clothes that he never would dream of wearing, along with a collar that only compounded his embarrassment-- what kind of person did everyone think he was? Then, to add to the strangeness of the morning, the note dared to tell him that everything he knew had been laid waste.
He ran a hand through his hair, tossing his curls from his face.]
Don't tell me that people honestly believe all of this?
Everywhere Else:
[Barnaby set off on his own in search of something that made sense in this Tower, taking in every new piece of information with a dose of skepticism. Although the battle on top of the Justice Tower had been a bitter victory and Sternbild had finally awoken from its bizarre dream, he wasn't certain about how much in his mind could be trusted.
Not even his senses were infalliable. It was a painful lesson to learn.
That was why he wandered the halls with the attention of a detective, taking note of anything and everything that struck his interest. He would eventually end up in the Cafeteria when he got hungry, studying the menu with bemused interest as he took a short break. Later on he could be found in a quiet corner of the library, taking advantage of the comforting quiet to make sense of everything that had happened to him in recent days-- along with the strange situation he suddenly found himself in.]

[ She gives him a very sceptical look. There's even something resembling a child in there - like the way they look at their parents when they claim something totally impossible. ]
How can you come close? You're just human, right?
no subject
That's right. I'm just another human.
[A human with an extraordinary talent.]
no subject
You're lying..! Humans can't do that! They're boring, pathetic!
no subject
Barnaby laughed. This girl was more like a human than she probably realized.]
Of course you would think that, being as extraordinary and talented as you are, but have you ever stopped to consider that things aren't always what they appear?
no subject
All that matters is a person's power, you know! If they don't have power, then they drop to the bottom of the food chain and might as well give up and die..!
no subject
[Her words hit too close to home.]
no subject
[ She hums of she's thinking of an example, a little less angry again.. ]
Like.. if someone is the youngest sibling and constantly bullied by their older siblings, they'll be a stupid kid for life no matter how much they refuse to fall!

I'm not going to argue about morals with a child that refuses to listen.

[ At least she's wandering away now.. ]
