Heroing [Period 2, Class 10]
"Hello!" Captain Hammer boomed happily, as he'd hidden away from the tiny children this weekend and thus not had to deal with that little element of insanity. He was, of course, wonderful with children, but they tended to cling and drool and vomit on things.
"Every hero," he said thoughtfully, pacing, "needs to learn to act less as a vigilante, at some point, and more in cooperation with the law enforcement. Those boys -- and ladies," he added, because he was sensitive, "in blue are important to running the city, and you have to keep that in mind when you're saving the day. Now, back home, the cops love me. There's a fan club." He posed, because...well, that was what he did. "But it isn't that way for all heroes! I've heard about people who have been outlawed from being heroes in their cities, because the police didn't enjoy their brand of justice. And sometimes, heroes can be branded as villains themselves, simply because sometimes we have to break the law to enforce it!"
"Your job today is to have one of those 'class discussion' things on how to keep the police happy and adoring you, because heroes often have to act outside the letter of the law, even while keeping the spirit of it," Hammer said, nodding. "Talk about what..." He consulted his notes for this word "...ethical issues you might have, with acting outside the law. Who's got the authority? The heroes, or the police, when it comes down to it?"

At least, as far as he knew. Jacen could've kicked him out while he was gone.
