Streaks of midday sun shine through the open windows, lighting up a nice living room, one that clearly belongs to a middle-upper-class family. There are a couple of paintings on the warm brown walls, a podium with some vase that's probably impressive to people who know vases.
Jester doesn't know vases. She's not even really sure if it's etymologically supposed to be pronounced like vaaz or vays. Probably vaaz, that soun...

Humming to herself as she pulls into her garage, Mary parks her bike, dismounts and starts skipping to the door, not slowing down at all even as she hangs the bike's keys up on the wall alongside a dozen other sets of keys.
When the door to the house opens, she is greeted by the sight of a massive open space full of fancy decorations that she ignores in favour of the lioness that immediately rushes her.
It's with ...

"Kyo! Can you go fetch your brother please!"
Kyoka Jiro looks up from her phone where she had been browsing a music forum, reading about a concert happening in a few days, to look at her mother. She takes a moment to register her mum's words before letting out a groan.
"Hai~," she mutters as she gets to her feet and starts walking for the stairs.
Her lazy brother is probably sleeping in again, otherwise he should have heard that breakfast was ready.
Getting to his room...

Flying through the sky under another's power isn't actually nearly as enjoyable an experience as she plays it out to be.
It's not that the flying itself isn't fun, because it certainly is, but there is a certain disconnect between herself and the gifted flight power compared to her actual power. Plus there's the knowledge that the flight will wear off whether you want it to or not.
Still, as Falcone she has to put...

Nobody likes being woken up, I feel like that's a pretty universal truth.
I mean, not only is sleep nice and comfortable, but it's also the only time you can have dreams filled with busty women giving you all sorts of attention.
So I feel like it's a fair reaction on my part to punch the asshole that woke me up right in the face.

The sight of Assault cold clocking Rock is one that Mary finds incredibly cathartic after the asshole pancaked her against the wall.
But they aren't done yet, so this is no time to be getting distracted. A thought that is proven correct when she hears the faint sound of movement coming from the office clouded in dust on the other side of the building.
"Eyes up," she says indicating to where Circus was launched, having noticed that none of her allies are as perceptive as her.

As the normals rapidly turn to follow her order, smartly understanding when they are outmatched, the Heroes present don't stand on ceremony.

Dashing forward, Lusia slides under another rapid swing of the Cloud Lion, ignoring as the blow shatters the earth behind her in favour of flipping her feet back under her and launching herself over the beast's back.
A single swing of her sword is enough to cut the Beast in half, but in exchange it leaves her open to a strike by another Lion that sends her crashing through the earth and some trees.
She ignores it. Even as the bark of the centuries o...
