//Right. So... We don't have much of a discussion prepared for today,// Jono admitted, looking a touch sheepish. //This semester apparently hasn't been much good for that. But we haven't cashed in our 'movie day' get out of jail free card yet, either, so I found an old episode of the Y-People cartoon to show, and then we can discuss it afterward. How you felt about the situation of the young girl, your opinion on the animation, whatever you wish. It's topical, at least.//

He shrugged his shoulders, and then slid a Y-People VHS into an old VCR, because that was just how the 90s rolled, okay?

Re: Watch the Cartoon!

Normally, Kathy would be thrilled to get a chance to watch the old Y-People show. It had aired before she was born, but she was a huge fan of the comics now and had a lot of--could it be called nostalgia if it was for something that she hadn't ever experienced?

But watching the beginning of that, where the girl's father stood over her and denied their relationship--yeah, Kathy could imagine her own father there all too easily. You're a disgrace. I'm ashamed to be seen with you. You ain't my daughter. Not anymore.

Would that be what happened if he ever found out about what she could do as Banzai? It's not like she hadn't heard half of that for smaller infractions anyway.

Yeah, she was just going to be sinking into her seat while she watched. Ugh.
