Oh, you're right, they'll have to put out a request to help them land a total nerd who spends all his time either at the library, hanging out with his sister, or reading books until it gets dark out.
I have, actually. A few. [ Mmmmnn.... ] Down at a bakery, there was some trouble with their goods going missing during the day. Someone on the staff sticky fingers would be the obvious culprit, but... well, how do I say this?
[ Because it never gets less ridiculous to think about-- ]
It was a family of mice, just like in a Disney movie. They were stealing food and taking it back to their mousehole to eat and store. According to the owner, there'd never been mice before, so they must've just moved in... and the weather's been getting colder, so that's probably why they decided to take refuge there. Anyway, the mice got the boot [ which is the kind way of saying "exterminated" here ] and I get a free tart if I buy a drink when I visit for helping them out. It's not a bad deal.
[ but look see, he's doing stuff!!! granted he just kind of. stumbled upon the mouse problem. he wasn't there to solve anything, he was there to have a quick coffee run and maybe snack on some nice treats... ]
I guess it'd be up to you to find them all, huh, Mr. League. [-- Oh.] Hey, since you're experienced with that kind of peace keeping stuff, why don't you be an ambassador or something like that?
... It was such a simple view of their jobs back then.]
That's too bad. Your cool-head would've won you points.
[Probably. And outside of that, he definitely wouldn't use his powers... because he's been so good about not showing them off and drawing attention to himself so far.]
Yeah, I guess so. I've gotta figure out what I stand for after all.
[Though she's probably not gonna figure that out for. A bit. Maybe put it off until something just strikes her right. White'll wriggle away, hands on her hips when she frees herself.]
Make sure you be prepared for your future blind date and my campaign! I'll be sore if I don't win, you know! And so will you!

I don't do much of that ordinarily. It's mostly just like what Mom and Dad were doing. [ Investigation!! ]
