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.]

Parker frowned at the 'kiddo', then shook her head. "Why would anyone miss that in the fine print? Is it worth it? Seriously. I get power, control, money, all that-- but if someone else is in charge-- even a really hot guy to have great sex with wouldn't be enough compensation. What's the upward mobility like?"

Lilah gritted her teeth and didn't answer about the fine print. "The upward mobility isn't bad, if you don't mind a little competition. And the really hot guy and great sex are a perk, but they're also a stumbling block. Don't expect to be happy on your quest."

"I'm not happy now anyway." Parker shrugged. "And I'm giving up on anything except the sex part. But still..." She gave Lilah's suit and make-up another look, but her voice stayed dubious. "Thanks for coming to talk, Ms. Morgan."

"Always here to help the students, except when I'm not because I could really care less," Lilah shrugged. "This, of course, isn't one of those times."
