Streets of Fandom, Tuesday Night

Clark, bundled up against the growing cold, strolled through town, pretty much just enjoying the night.

He'd welcome some company.

Dr. Venture had his hands shoved in his pockets when he passed by Clark on his walk.

He was grumbling.

"Happy holidays." Clark said cheerfully.

"Happy worst island on the face of this horrible planet," Dr. Venture said.

Nice try, but Clark managed to save his mom's life, you'll have to do better than that to dampen his spirit. "Oh dear, what's wrong?"

"Oh, just someone breaking into my lab and breaking my robot," Dr. Venture said. "That's all. Nothing major."

Hmm, this did seem cause for concern actually. "Have you reported this to the authorities?" Yeah, those authorities who were oh so usefull when the Trolls attacked.

[identity profile] rustyboywonder.livejournal.com 2006-12-13 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
"Yeah right," Dr. Venture said. "Cops are the second lowest form of life on this planet."

[identity profile] mildly-super.livejournal.com 2006-12-13 03:53 am (UTC)(link)
clark opened his mouth to defend the police, but his curiosity got the better of him and instead he asked. "I'll regret asking I'm sure, but what's the first lowest?"

[identity profile] rustyboywonder.livejournal.com 2006-12-13 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
"Doctor Byron Orpheus," Dr. Venture grumbled.

[identity profile] mildly-super.livejournal.com 2006-12-13 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
Well to be honest that sounded like a supervillain name if he ever heard one. "I don't think I've heard of him." he admitted.

[identity profile] rustyboywonder.livejournal.com 2006-12-13 04:04 am (UTC)(link)
"You're very lucky," Dr. Venture said.

[identity profile] mildly-super.livejournal.com 2006-12-13 04:27 am (UTC)(link)
"Is he a supervillain?" Hey, on this island it was a legitimate question.

[identity profile] rustyboywonder.livejournal.com 2006-12-13 04:28 am (UTC)(link)
"I wish. He's just your average flamingly gay middle-aged necromancer," Dr. Venture said.

[identity profile] mildly-super.livejournal.com 2006-12-13 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
Clark blinked. He'd never had occaision to fight one, but from everything he'd heard, granted from old sword and sorcery movies...

"Uhm, arent' Necromancers traditionally villains?"

[identity profile] rustyboywonder.livejournal.com 2006-12-13 04:39 am (UTC)(link)
"I wish," Dr. Venture said. "It'd be so much easier if he were."

[identity profile] mildly-super.livejournal.com 2006-12-13 04:40 am (UTC)(link)
"I guess trying to use necromancy for non-villanous purposes could cause some confusion." clark agreed.

[identity profile] rustyboywonder.livejournal.com 2006-12-13 04:44 am (UTC)(link)
"Him and the whole damn Order of the stupid Triad," Dr. Venture grumbled.

[identity profile] mildly-super.livejournal.com 2006-12-13 04:45 am (UTC)(link)
"Are they necromancers too?"

[identity profile] rustyboywonder.livejournal.com 2006-12-13 04:46 am (UTC)(link)
"Alchemist and a Blackula Hunter," Dr. Venture grumbled. "Just as bad."

[identity profile] rustyboywonder.livejournal.com 2006-12-13 05:05 am (UTC)(link)
"Black vampires," Dr. Venture said. "D'uh."

[identity profile] mildly-super.livejournal.com 2006-12-13 09:33 pm (UTC)(link)
"Huh. That makes sense, in a slightly racist kind of way."

[identity profile] rustyboywonder.livejournal.com 2006-12-13 09:49 pm (UTC)(link)
"How is it racist? You can't very well call them African-American vampires if they're from Canada or Britain, now, can you?" Dr. Venture said.

And wondering why the hell he was arguing the point.

[identity profile] mildly-super.livejournal.com 2006-12-13 10:07 pm (UTC)(link)
"If you only hunt black Vampires, and that seems quite racist actually, then why not just say that. Why assign an ethnic slur?"

[identity profile] rustyboywonder.livejournal.com 2006-12-13 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)
"I'm not the Blackula hunter," Dr. Venture said. "You'd have to ask Jefferson Twilight yourself. Assuming he hasn't overdosed on sugar water lately."

[identity profile] mildly-super.livejournal.com 2006-12-13 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
He was right, Clark was being unfair, it wasn't this man's fault. "Oh, sorry I forgot to introduce myself. Clark Kent, I run the Arms Hotel."

[identity profile] rustyboywonder.livejournal.com 2006-12-13 10:27 pm (UTC)(link)
"Dr. Venture," he said. "Of Venture Industries."

[identity profile] mildly-super.livejournal.com 2006-12-13 10:30 pm (UTC)(link)
"Oh, the new lab that opened up." Clark said. "What sort of things do you do?" He hadn't forgotten that sign about human test subjects. At least they were asking for volunteers and not drafting them.

[identity profile] rustyboywonder.livejournal.com 2006-12-13 10:32 pm (UTC)(link)
"Government stuff," Dr. Venture said. "Very hush hush, you know."

[identity profile] mildly-super.livejournal.com 2006-12-13 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
"Oh of course." clark said understandingly. His reporters instincts were piqued though. He thought he might have to look into this a bit more.

[identity profile] rustyboywonder.livejournal.com 2006-12-13 10:39 pm (UTC)(link)
"I think I'll be on my way," Dr. Venture said. "You can spread your Christmas cheer elsewhere."

[identity profile] mildly-super.livejournal.com 2006-12-13 11:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Clark snickered. "I will."
