School Assembly, Friday afternoon, The Auditorium

[bugofjustice.livejournal.com]

The Tick took the stage once the audience was nice and full and smiled. "Crime is a broken drive-up ATM machine. It doesn't pay. Trust me, as a former full-time and current freelance Bank Teller of Justice I know this well. Sure, the ATM is faster when you get it to work, and it's the easier way to make money, but it'll break down, leaving you high and dry. And broke. It's best to park the car, go inside, do things right, and cross that Vestibule of Right because otherwise you're going to end up with nothing in time!"

"Trust me, I've been a superhero long enough, I know what I'm talking about!"

"Today's speakers are criminals who've learned how bad the life can be, who've learned that it's not worth the chance of saving a little bit of time only to end up unable to retrieve your Money from the Bank of Law."

[OOC: Standard assembly stuff. Threads for speakers are marked, please don't comment in those threads until the speaker has, speakers should also ping into the Q&A thread.]

Deadpool shrugged. "Depends. Who the target is, who is hiring me, the mood I'm in at the time, if Venus is in the second house. You know, lots of things."

Cameron didn't really know, but he nodded anyway. "What about morals? Do they calculate in there somewhere?"

Deadpool rolled his eyes, an action that was probably lost on Cameron due to the mask. "Because morality works so well when you kill people for money."

"Soldiers get paid for it too and yet people find it more morally exceptable," Cameron pointed out. "I was just curious because you said you had accepted jobs from the government."

"I take those jobs on my terms. They don't give me any orders."
