Heart Game: Talon
Was it this late when you stepped into the Game Tower...? Now the sky above is dotted with a few scarce stars, occasionally obscured by some light cloud cover drifting by. Most of the night sky has been washed out by the bright lights of the city which, by the way, is spread out far below the rooftop that characters find themselves on. There's a faint buzz on their phones. When checked, the screen shows a Game Notice:
Win Condition:
1. Locate the True Heart
Or
2. Leave a Lasting Mark
The skyscraper towers high above the streets, easily dwarfing any other building in sight. The city is some dozens of stories below, and the sound of the wind rushing by is louder than anything that can be heard from the streets. Occasionally the wail of a siren pierces the distance, but it's easier to spot the lights of an ambulance or police car zipping through the roads than it is to hear them. If you look closely enough, and for long enough, you might notice figures in the distance leaping between buildings, sometimes in pursuit of a siren or with an emergency vehicle trailing in the distance behind them.
The roof itself is expansive—the building must take up the better part of a city block, judging by the space available up here. A helipad (sans any helicopter) takes up the entirety of one side of the roof, complete with what looks like a freight elevator for moving things from the roof further into the building. The elevator itself has a keypad lock on it, but a staircase entrance beside it has no obvious lock in place.
The rest of the rooftop is empty save for a small, hooded figure perched atop one of the parapets along the edge of the roof, feet dangling over open air.
[ OOC NOTES:
1. Powers are on. THIS INCLUDES CANON POWER SETS.
2. Characters may keep any equipment they had on them when entering the heart, but there is a risk it will be taken away during the run. However all equipment taken will be returned when you exit the heart.
3. Significant changes/damage to the heart will reset each time someone new enters an area for the first time. For example, if Bob kills the sentry at the entrance of the heart, the sentry will respawn for Sally when she arrives. This way everyone can experience the different areas.
4. CAVEAT TO THE ABOVE: exceptions made for anyone specifically going through the heart with a partner(s), or anyone who requests to react to damage that's been done. The goal here is to allow everyone to have fun in the heart at the end of the day. ♥ ]

Re: Start Here
Where else would we go?
Re: Start Here
Re: Start Here
Re: Start Here
We gotta do a crime.
Re: Start Here
But I'm supposed to fight crime!
Re: Start Here
But consider this! Helping a friend is waaay more important than fighting crime! And if YOU are the crime, that means no one else can be.
Re: Start Here
[ fuck how is a farm boy supposed to combat that logic!! ]
I don't think that's right, but....I guess....
Re: Start Here
[extending his hand]
So! Wanna help me with this game, Jon-boy?
Re: Start Here
but reaches hesitantly for C's hand ]
No one's gonna get hurt, right?
Re: Start Here
Neeheehee! It'll be fun. I just need a few things.
One, where's a super high building at that he could see us from? And two, do you have markers, bags, and firecrackers?
Re: Start Here
And, uh, the best building's probably the old clock tower. You can see it from anywhere around here.
Re: Start Here
Okay, okay, last thing. What's his favorite dessert?
Re: Start Here
1/2
Re: Start Here
Re: Start Here
But uh, okay. I know a good Speedy-Mart.
[ Offers a hand! ]
I'll fly us there.
Re: Start Here
Let's be off! It'll be a CRIME not to go through this now!
Re: Start Here
and immediately down to a Speedy Mart to raid the snack aisles ]
They've got a ton of different poptart flavors here.
Re: Start Here
[considers smokebombing so they can just, steal all the shit
but at the very least will not make a ten year old shoplift. IS THERE A CLERK?]
Re: Start Here
Re: Start Here
well he's not adverse to using someone's fame. RUNNING UP TO THE CLERK and slamming down some alcheme crystals he tugged off his outfit]
We've got a super duper super hero emergency! We need as many poptarts as these can buy, and also some markers please! And we can throw in a picture if you ask nicely.
Re: Start Here
Really? Just one picture—pretty please with cherries on top!
Re: Start Here
Heeeey, Superboy! This fine citizen's agreed to help us out! But the price. . .is a smile!
Re: Start Here
Well...anything for a fan, right? Think you can take the picture for us?
Re: Start Here
I am READY. This is for a good cause!
Everyone say Ovaltine!
