Heroic Tales, Wednesday, Period Two
For the first time in a long time, class was not in the Danger Shop at all, but a regular classroom. Well, regular classroom sans desks and plus a whole bunch of oversized beanbag chairs arranged in a half-circle formation.
"It has been a while since we've done any actual reading in this class," Thor observed. "So I thought perhaps we could do some today," he produced a stack of Y-People comics and gestured for everyone to take one, or several. "The Y-People are a group of 'superheroes' who possess abilities beyond that of the average Midgardian. Because of this, the people of their world treat them with fear and uncertainty. Despite this, the Y-People use their abilities to protect those who fear them from other dangerous individuals or events. Now, it is easy to say that one would fight to protect one's loved ones, or friends... but would you take up arms to protect someone who hated you, or leave them to their fate?" He wasn't going to press for answers to this particular question, so if anyone didn't feel like chiming in... well, there were plenty of comics to read instead.

Re: Answer the Question!
"I would," she said without hesitation, then smiled sheepishly. "I admit I might feel a bit uncomfortable about doing so, but just because someone doesn't care for me at all is any reason for me to leave them to some horrible fate if it's in my power to prevent it. I don't know that I could live with myself if I did, honestly."
Seriously though, Cosette?
