Gabriel stood up and walked around his room (it was his room, right? It was okay to say it was his property since he woke up on it?) and wondered what she'd think if he decided to message her. Possibly, both of them were busy doing superhero stuff. Laserdream was probably busy doing stuff with her cousin - Glory Girl, he'd found out. Gabriel decided to think thrice before messaging her. He really walked into her without noticing?

And Panacea - who worked at the local hospital and could heal ailments with a touch. Glory Girl had flight and invulnerability, and a glory aura of some kind, but no lasers. Manpower had electromagnetism instead, and Brandish could create hard-light weaponry. Flight, forcefields and laser beams for most of the family with some variations.

He looked up some pictures of them, and then their pages on the official wiki, to check out their powers. She was a part of New Wave - a local family of superheroes who practice the credo of cape accountability and have public identities. Without even speaking, he blanked at the computer screen and looked her up. When he saw the tag, 'Verified Cape,' his heart skipped a beat. Without ado, Gabriel jumped on the computer and opened up PHO. His mind associated the words 'lonely' with 'friend' and made a mental list of the people he'd seen since he came here. Not much waiting for him back home, but it might get lonely in this new life. For all he could tell, there was no way to do it, and he wasn't sure if he'd even want to. He didn't really have any reason to want to go back. He didn't need either.Ībsentmindedly, he wondered if dad would have been proud of him. Gabriel put the gun away in a dresser upstairs, alongside the pocket knife. If he went for the guy with the knife, it could have ended poorly. Looking at the gun he took from the thugs, he'd checked it and it was loaded with 9x19 parabellum rounds probably the most popular kind of ammunition.

Hopefully, she didn't mind the extra workload. He'd read up on Panacea, and apparently she worked in the hospital, so if the guy who had his head smashed into a wall had a concussion, she could probably heal him. He'd barely been several hours in this world, and somehow he already got into a fight with three neo-Nazis and beat the shit out of them. The excitement passed into a shade of a feeling, only present in the form of an uncontrolled desire to constantly tap his heel against the ground. Once he got back to the lair - to his warehouse - the rest of the adrenaline wore off. It wasn't that serious but still, sorry about that! WHEW! Forgot to put all that under a spoiler. Potential hero recruits are important, yes, but not THAT important. In such a case the Director's actions would merely include being made aware of a new potential recruit and giving the 'go-ahead' with the procedures, and only after finding about the aforementioned Triumvirate-grade of potential would she maybe get involved.Īs it is, I really don't see a reason for her to get involved. Moreover, even in the case of a Triumvirate-grade power would have been directed to those in the PRT whose specific job is to deal with new potential members and those that would directly take part in power testing/contracts. So, while Trigger events are indeed something the PRT is aware of and they do want as many parahumans as they cab get to join the local branch, a new trigger is not something that would merit the Directors immediate attention unless we are talking about a really public trigger causing public damage or someone with a Triumvirate-grade power.
