[OC8] Issue #1: Opening Day

"I'm looking forward to being able to help people. That is the reason we all agreed to do this - at least I think that was the reason." Brandon says as he again tilts back in his chair, trying to look nonchalant. I have to even the scales the scales somehow for all that I've been given: the help in controlling my powers, giving me at least part of my life back.

At that point, Mickey Mouse (!!) suddenly appears in the doorway taking a slug from a half-empty bottle of Jack Daniels. Bleary-eyed, he takes a drag from an unfiltered Camel, looks over the group and then belches, "Am I late?"

He then spots Lt. Liberty and snaps to attention, "Sir, NE1 reporting for hic duty" The 6 ft. Mouse gives a sharp salute and then promptly passes out face-first on the tile floor.
 

Brandon raises an eyebrow and says, "I don't think I get too close to him - I'm guessing he's flammable."
 

"Good call, son," Lt. Liberty told Brandon. With that, he was out of his chair and over at NE1's side.

"What's the meaning of this, kid?" Stevens . "You're supposed to be a hero, you're gonna have to start acting like one. And that doesn't include imitating our sponsor's mascot while drunk!"

'Shapeshifters..." he muttered under his breath, "I never could get used to them."

OOC: Okay, I know I said I'd move the plot along now, but this is too good not to explore. Don't worry, you'll gt your mission handed down soon enough. :)

NE1 struggles to regain consciousness, babbling, "Britney? Enough already... I tolja I've got a meaning ... meeting ... at noon tomorrow, I gots ta sleep if I'm gonna get up that early."

With that Mickey's large eyes flutter open and he sees the Lieutenant. "Whoa nelly!" he exclaims before vomiting all over the old soldier.
 

"Great... Just great..."
So in addition to these... 'heroes', the group also has a drunk shapeshifter.
Speedy takes a step back, even though he isn't close to the return-dinner.
 

Wrinkling his nose in distaste, Bruce moves a hand up to cover his nose and mouth.

Even before my ... change ... I don't remember ever acting like ... like this.

"Lt., this really can't be one of our team-mates can he?"
 

Looking down at his shirt, Stevens repleid to Brandon, "I'm afraid so, son. I'm afraid so."

"Someone help me get him up and into a chair. I'm 50 anymore, you know."
 

Anh wrinkled her nose, recoiling away from the drunk mouse. "Ewww...! That's really disgusting! I didn't know Mickey Mouse was superhero? When did that happen?"

When the mouse emptied the contents of its stomach, she looked even more disgusted and a little sorry for the lieutenant. "Oh! Gross! At least it looks he didn't eat much except for that liquor...although mixed liquor can be pretty nasty come right back up."

Then she coughed. "Of course I don't know anything about that..." Oops...she wasn't of legal age to imbibe quite yet...perhaps not to wise to indicate that to Lt. Liberty. And went over to help him get the big mouse on its big feet.

Dr. Harrison, moved from his place near the Lieutenant's seat to help as well, snatching for the cigarette. "I think we'll just put this out, shall we? Poisoning yourself is one thing, but let's not take the rest of us with you." He glanced at Liberty. "I don't suppose our gadgets include something to sober him up within five minutes?"
