well..it's time to go.
do stuff
make things
it's good for morale

Are you going to Japan soon?

I would like it known that I had no idea that tree would be leaving. Until she tells me otherwise, I am going to be operating under the assumption that she has been kidnapped and requires a dramatical rescue!

Get out your beetleboat! We're off to save our tree!

*packs the superhero outfits*

I can never remember where i left my utility belt.

I always leave mine hanging on the bedside lamp. Did you check there? or it could be in the "dirty" pile by mistake.

*checking napsack* Do you think tree will be upset if my cape has a hole in it? I could so it or staple it or something, but I kinda like the "active superhero" look it gives me.

*examines cape*

I think tree would apreciate the "worn in" look. Why do superheros have to look like they just came from teh cleaners?

It's that whole modern "must be in control" attitude. My feeling is, if you wash the underwear and tights part, it's clean. Dry cleaning the cape is kind of like dry cleaning your coat. It's a very rare thing.

Besides which, how often can you fly through molton lava and things of that sort before even the best fabrics begin to fall apart?

*examines Krissy's cape*

Krissy, you seem to have more grass stains than lava burns. Why is that?

*snatching back the cape* You think all superheros were born knowing how to fly?? Keep your eyes on your own costume there Mr. superhero snoop!

Besides *beginning to repack the cape and several different colored tights* I wasn't necessarily talking about MY flying through lava. I was just making a point. I also learned early on that the thing about tights is that the magic word is "opaque".

What do you mean opaque?

*looks at his fishnets*

Are my seams straight?

LOL!!!

Well, I guess that Captain Streetwalker would HAVE to wear fishnets. I didn't even think about that. Yep.. wait. *straightens right seam* There.

Must be interesting when you fly over the city, hunh?

Next i suppose you'll be telling me i don't have to wear my underwear on the outside.

No... you have to wear your underwear on the outside. It's in the handbook. "Tight Style" is personal and "Underwear Style" is personal, but it must be worn on the outside.

*packing pb&j sandwiches for the trip*

*looking for shoes*

Are we going to Japan then?

*balking*

Japan? Is that where she was kidnapped to?? Wow.

I mean, I don't know if I mentioned this to you, but I'm not the world's greatest flier...that's a long way....

I mean...I love the kid and all but...sheesh....

Japan?? are you SURE?

Yeah, it's an old Prop engine prone to stalling. I figure if we rough it, we can be there in two days. Better bring a spare parachute *just in case*

*packing several extra parachutes and knockout pills*

sheesh. Japan. Wake me when we get there ok? I don't want to be conscious for this bit.

That bad, eh?

Infinatly worse.

How about a train rind to San Francisco, her next stop. We can meet her there.
