Has anyone else noticed that a large number of the members here now seem to be from superhero groups?

[selfished]

Yeah, but most of 'em aren't worth talking to either way.

[ You could at least try to be polite, Kyouko.. ]

[embersandashes]

Why not?

[selfished]

You'd know if ya talked to them yourselves! They're all the goody-two-shoes type, it's super boring.

[embersandashes]

Naive is probably a better word.

[selfished]

I don't really care whatever ya wanna call it, it comes down to the same thing: they're all boring. I don't even waste my time talking to 'em anymore.

[lightning_strike]

I think it's simply just the nature of the community to be interested in the heroic ongoings of a world. Though why it would connect my world for all intents and purposes, well...

[embersandashes]

Does yours not fall into that category?

[lightning_strike]

I hardly think so. We are not a trained group of "heroes" per say. We are soldiers, in a line of duty. That's all.

[embersandashes]

Mm. I was a soldier for a short time, when I was younger.

[touchingpast]

Superhero groups?

[embersandashes]

That's what I said, yes.

[promisedknight]

Not everyone's in one by choice.

[embersandashes]

Forced servitude? Bribery? Coercion?

[promisedknight]

Coerced into fighting, having to work with someone else because he's too stupid not to get himself killed.

[embersandashes]

A lot of people would probably just abandon him to his fate, if that's the case.

[papillio_tempestatis]

It does seem to be awfully common recently...

[embersandashes]

More than recently. I just haven't mentioned it until now.

[papillio_tempestatis]

Mm. I've only noticed it recently; I suppose it's been picking up lately.

[embersandashes]

I wonder why that is.

[stillneedawish]

Ah... now that you mention it, you're right. There really are a lot of people from groups like that, lately. I wonder why there's suddenly so many?

[embersandashes]

I wouldn't consider it sudden. It's been growing steadily.

[stillneedawish]

Mm, I guess it just seems sudden when you consider how many of them there are by now. Maybe the community's been connecting to a lot of sites about superheroes and got some ideas?

[embersandashes]

Or it watches worlds. Jiá Xuan and I are discussing a similar theory.

[thatsmyyogurt]

That's unusual?

[embersandashes]

It's more usual than it used to be.
