"TH-th-th-that w-w-was mean..." Selina tries to calm down, looking quite hurt from that.

"Ha, oh, um...yeah, sorry."
Precedent suggests that this apology is less than fully sincere.

Elena uses her laptop to check previous induction ceremonies since hers had been a quiet affair.  Her staus as a probationary ward, and the fact that she was the only person joining, had caused the PRT to limit coverage. It had gotten a small article in the newspaper and a 15 second clip on the local news.  She wondered what bigger ones were like.

There have been fairly few mass induction ceremonies. Unsurprisingly, many came right after Terrors killed off most of a city's heroes. They were typically public affairs, as much to reassure the people that everything would be handled as anything. Most or all of the local Protectorate and the major members of the Wards attended; anyone not attending, typically plus some out-of-towners, patrol during it to keep the criminals quiet. The details varied a bit, but at the core it was basically like Elena's ceremony.

Blaster cackles.

"I suppose. First we'd need a butcher's shop and stuff. And someone with some idea of how to be a butcher."

Selina hears something:
"Boo."

"Alright, I guess...sad that we don't have any shields or armor."

He enters the cave, pick at the ready.

Will picks up Meme.

"I know, sweetie."
<We're right outside Maria's.>

"Fine. Not sure what to do."

((Hmm... Hadn't heard of that phrase/rhyme before. Sounds great!))

((Does it count as a rhyme if it only rhymes because the last two words of each line except the last are the same?))
