Session 4

Session 4 took place on the 2nd and 3rd of June 2023.

Notes were taken by Alyssa and Respawn.

Hey, Nana

It was a bright, warm Monday morning. Memorial day, in fact. I'm sure you were down at the graveyard, visiting Grandpa. I hope you liked the flowers I left there. Gardenias were the flowers he planted for you when you first bought your house, right? I'm sure he's watching over you, missing you as much as you miss him.

As I've mentioned in previous entries, I'm not sure you'll ever see these words. I guess this is my way of coping with the fact that you can't know about this part of me. Also, if you happen to out live me, I guess its my way of letting you know how my days were. Letting you know that, even while I was elbow deep in 'Hero Stuff', I still committed every evening to writing to you.

I was at the hideout, tinkering as I've always done. I realized a few of my teammates weren't as modernized as they should have been. (Unlike you and your smart devices, Nana) I was using one of those Nokia phones to try and build something for one of my less careful teammates. R (the one that used the gun that day) showed up while D (the really strong one) was watching me build their phone. Gotta say, they have an interesting style, but I can get behind it (not that I let R know).

I had to introduce D to the concept of 'cute'. They're a little bit behind, but its endearing in a way. Kinda like a lost puppy. D wanted to go out and prove they were a big kid. They hoped over to the mall. Of course, we didn't think we could leave them there. K (the artsy one), J (the scary when angry one), R and I ended up chasing after D.

It was kinda fun, I guess. We split up and J & I went shopping for swimsuits (we had been invited to a Memorial Day beach cook out thing). Turns out, J hadn't really done the "friend shopping" thing either. We  bonded over that (I know, Nana. "Alyssa finally made friends! " I can hear you saying it. )

After we all got back together, we hopped over to the private beach party. Well, mostly private. There were some other people, but they were tight with the person who invited us out. Of all things, D wanted to be buried in the sand. They dug out their own spot and everything.

While we were doing that, I was recording and taking pictures. I'll add them to the m.2 I made for you. I think, by that point, it would be okay for you to see our faces, hear their voices, and know everyone's names. "Never can be too careful." Grandpa used to say that.

Lets see, what else happened? Oh! R and J got into a play fight over the giant ducky floaty we bought. There was dinner (huge buffet of meats and veggies). I kinda wish I could have stayed to see how the epic fight over the Ducky (some chick tried to steal it off of R [who won the previous battle.]). However, like K and Danny, I had to go to work.

I quit my job today, Nana. Finally got tired of being pushed around by people who came to me for help. Funny since being a hero is another form of customer services. I'm looking for new jobs. Not sure what I'll do, but I'll do my best

I love and miss you, Nana. If I have time, I'll visit you Thursday. I'll bring Popeyes for you and an extra biscuit.

Till next time,

Alyssa

### Respawn's Recap - Continued after Alyssa left

The battle for Colonel Quacky commences.

Julie threw Respawn at Raven with the power of a thousand suns. Colonel Quacky died in the process.

We all bonded over the loss of our best team member.

Ricky fixed him up good as new,

Respawn put his foot in his mouth and made Donna sad, but then he cheered her up again by offering to have her meet Wonder Woman. Though he didn’t specify how that was gonna happen ..

The two of them then teamed up to destroy Julie who had run off with Colonel Quacky in the meantime. Donna turned on Respawn and claimed her place as the queen of the rubber ducky.

We all conceded.

Donna, Julie and Respawn returned to the Oblivion where Julie took a practice shift as bartender and got to milk a brown cow to serve chocolate milk to Donna and Decibel. Respawn is a real adult person who isn’t influenced by his father in any way and had Kentucky Bourbon, like an individual who also totally likes the taste too. The team exchanged phone numbers.

Donna and Respawn offer Decibel combat training alongside Alyssa and Julie (and perhaps Kid-Ink) to help them be better heroes and take better care of themselves. He accepted,

Respawn asked the team for help to complete the mission his father set him on, though he didn’t mention his father had anything to do with it. They emerged from the Oblivion in Respawn’s favorite alleyway, and he told the team what they were there to do: Find someone named Agent X, and make sure he wasn’t up to sketchy shit. To do this, Respawn wanted to find Huntress, and Decibel informed the group that he actually knew someone who might be able to point them in the right direction: Dinah Lance.

After a phone call to Black Canary, the team was informed that Huntress patrols Old Town with Manhunter, which is coincidentally the neighborhood their alley is in. Donna flew Julie and Decibel to the roof while Respawn changed into his .. .. Respawn uniform, and climbs the building himself. The plan is to lure either Huntress or Manhunter into making contact, and then ask questions. The best way to do this is to look nearly identical to Deathstroke, and run across the rooftops – but with Donna as back up of course. Julie and Decibel were quite fine with just staying on the roof they didn’t really want to be on in the first place.

Respawn is tackled straight out of the air by Manhunter who threatens him, thinking he’s Deathstroke initially, but Respawn and Donna set the record straight, and ask about Agent X. Manhunter says Huntress is the one who has had the most contact with him, and agrees to lead them to her.

Meanwhile, Julie introduced Decibel to Polychrome’s music, and the two rock out together. Until Huntress interrupts them, thinking they’re some kind of start-up villain wannabes. They too set the record straight, and share Respawn’s personal business in the process. Luckily Donna, Respawn and Manhunter arrive in time to stop Huntress from telling them who his dad actually is.

After agreeing to owe Huntress a favor for the info, she gives Respawn a phone she’s used to get in touch with Agent X before, and after Huntress and Manhunter leave them on the roof, Respawn calls Agent X.

Respawn introduces himself, and requests that perhaps Agent X could find a different target for his little hobby. In fact, maybe Respawn has a better target in mind! D2 – Devastation – Donna’s “twin” who escaped the Crucible.
