JAWS 12: SHARP THREADS

ACTION:

[Mart is walking door to door or down the streets with a number of business cards which read "MART VINEYARD: (BADASS) HERO FOR HIRE!" which feature a phone number crossed out, a new one drawn in for Mayfield, and a smiling picture of himself. He'll attempt to hand them out to you or any passerbyers and staple them to any posts.

Also, Mart has regained a black tank top with this symbol emblazoned upon it: http://symboldictionary.net/?p=1080]

PHONE:

Hey, so I got back a bunch of cards for when I was Hero-ing for Hire, and I realized: why not do it here? So I'm offering my services as a young, outstanding metahuman to any of you who need them!

You got problems? And I will solve them! Possibly with my teeth.

Yeah, me and my partner were making business cards and I needed an attention drawer.

It drew your attention though, didn't it?

[identity profile] brbgoing2russia.livejournal.com 2012-01-03 06:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Seriously? You're charging people to help them?

[identity profile] jaws5sonofjaws.livejournal.com 2012-01-03 06:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, I mean, not money here 'cuz what's the point there's nothing to buy.

So I'll probably charge for like, sandwiches or hotdogs or something.

Back home, the super hero teams charge an arm and a leg!

Yeah. I'm makin' sure to keep ya on my "Moron" list.

Hey!

Don't call me a moron.

Action

[And whose door you should knock on but that of one Rip van Winkle. It appears as though she got herself a regain as well. She's wearing her usual black suit with, yes Mart, long necklace with connected to a silver, swastika emblem. Rip gives Mart a look and at the business card.]

Der... "Badass" Held for Hire. How droll. But vhen it comes down to it, you do fight and var like the rest of us "villains".

[identity profile] jaws5sonofjaws.livejournal.com 2012-01-03 07:57 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh boy! This lady. Mart looks irritated at the swastika in question.]

Please.

I'm offering to give my services for a good cause.

Like kicking some Nazi ass.

[identity profile] gesangderjager.livejournal.com 2012-01-03 08:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Such an admirable devotion to your community you have zhere! But zhat being said, you are not different from the rest of us. You fight as we do, vhich is all fun, but you are zhe one who has to make excuses. Like fighting for zhe "good cause". Zhat must get tiring.

[identity profile] jaws5sonofjaws.livejournal.com 2012-01-03 08:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Look, I'm not like you guys.

I don't get off on killing people, I don't want to fight in war, and I am not making excuses.

Also, I'm kinda Jewish, so that wouldn't be right.

[identity profile] gesangderjager.livejournal.com 2012-01-03 08:23 pm (UTC)(link)
[Not that Rip really cares about Mart's religion. Unlike the Fuhrer and many of those that believed in his propaganda, Rip doesn't feel strongly one way or the other about the Jewish. She is a soldier and if she is told to aim her gun at certain people, any people, she will do so. But not because she feels hate. In fact, it's difficult to say whether Rip truly hates anybody beyond traitors and those who prove to be particular nuisances. She was more of a follower of the Major than of the Fuhrer. The world is a battlefield and that's all she sees it as beyond political divisions.]

Ah, zhe Juden. Zhere vasn't much I had to do vizh zhem, zhough zhe Fuhrer vas intent on following zhrough vizh his "final solution" of his. National Socialism vas alvays razher rubbish.

A Nazi who doesn't think much about being a Nazi.

Huh.

And next you'll tell me you actually have a respect for human life...

Maybe if ya stop callin' yourself badass, dumbass!

[identity profile] gesangderjager.livejournal.com 2012-01-03 08:35 pm (UTC)(link)
It vould seem zhat vhile you have met zhe Major, you know nozhing about him or his followers. Ve are soldiers and soldiers require a flag to fight under. Vhile ve follow zhe Fuhrer's orders and vage var? Zhere is nozhing else zhat ve need from him. Ve are only Nazis in zhat sense.

You really know nozhing about us.

Not really.

[Mart leans against the door, crossing his arms.]

So what's there to say about you except you work for a homicidal madman who has probably been responsible for thousands of people dying?

What possibly is there redeeming about you?

[identity profile] jaws5sonofjaws.livejournal.com 2012-01-03 08:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Now you're just acting mean.

[identity profile] gesangderjager.livejournal.com 2012-01-03 08:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Ohohoh!

Now vhy vould I vant to be "redeemed" at all? I am just fine zhe vay zhat I am. I am just fine regardless of who I vork for. Nor vould I ask for your forgiveness in vhat has been done.

[identity profile] jaws5sonofjaws.livejournal.com 2012-01-03 08:48 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't mean in the forgiveness sense. I mean, what's more to you than killing people?

Can you even understand why other people see you and your cronies as morally reprehensible?

[Action]

"Hero for Hire?" I am afraid I will not need one.

[She can deal with her problems by herself, and if she needs help, she can call on Tohsaka and her Servant...who happens to be an actual legendary hero.]

[identity profile] gesangderjager.livejournal.com 2012-01-03 09:10 pm (UTC)(link)
If ve are talking about conventional morals, zhen yes, ve have followed the orders of a "madman" and eliminated and destroyed the lives of so many innocents. Ve are to blame for everyzhing and rightfully so.

[Not that she particularly feels much empathy for what had happened, but she does indeed realize why she and her cohorts are morally reprehensible...]

But zhe same could be said for zhose "ozher people" as much as us. Zhe firebombing of Dresden, repeated bombings of civilian cities, Russian soldiers ravaging towns and German vomen for zhe sake of vengeance zhrough ethnic cleansing... Zhere really are no "heroes" in war as zhey zhink of zhemselves if ve are talking about conventional morals. Just monsters.

All soldiers have killed many innocents for zhe "country" and for ourselves. And me? Vell.

... I just like zhe hunt! And vhen I am not hunting, I indulge in zhe arts, singing unt dancing unt painting just as often as I can!
noluckduck: (Oh come on.)

[personal profile] noluckduck 2012-01-03 09:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Haven't seen a reason to act any other way yet.

[identity profile] jaws5sonofjaws.livejournal.com 2012-01-03 09:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Hm.

You're definitely easier to talk to than that asshole Major.

Still doesn't change the fact you're as wacko as the rest of your pals.

And you still intent on trying to hunt lil ol' me?

[identity profile] gesangderjager.livejournal.com 2012-01-03 09:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Ohohoh...! Vell... I do not have orders for it, but I do not have orders against it.

Vould you like to be a hero just zhis vonce and defeat zhis scary villain?

[identity profile] jaws5sonofjaws.livejournal.com 2012-01-04 02:43 am (UTC)(link)
So take your pick, but I'm giving ya fair warning.

Trust me, I've been a hero a whole bunch and I could beat you whenever.

[identity profile] jaws5sonofjaws.livejournal.com 2012-01-04 02:43 am (UTC)(link)
Look, I don't know you.

You don't know me.

Maybe introductions are in order?

[identity profile] jaws5sonofjaws.livejournal.com 2012-01-04 02:45 am (UTC)(link)
Well, now how do you know that for certain?

I can be pretty helpful in a pinch.
