>39Nothing! You’ve been swinging around this city for hours and you haven’t found a single trace of Max! And from the sounds of your friend’s brief, and infrequent transmissions, they weren’t having much better luck than you were. Glass got stuck with babysitting Sam while you were away, but you eventually ended up sending Flint back to give him a break, seeing as you were getting nowhere in this investigation. And to your surprise, Prowler ended up bowing out early, saying that he had someone to check on.
You let him go, and he thanked you for it. Felicia’s seemingly boundless enthusiasm and limitless innuendos were beginning to run dry as well. It wouldn’t be long before she got bored enough to call it quits.
You’d think that it’d be relatively easy to track down a living lightning bolt, but you were quickly being proved wrong with each passing minute. It was clear that you weren’t going to find Max tonight, so you might as well redirect your efforts elsewhere.
You were just about to call Madame Web, when-
<span class="mu-r">“What is it?”</span>
<span class="mu-r">“HOLY SHIT!”</span> you shouted, nearly falling from your perch and dropping your phone in the process.
A giant, floating image of Madame Web made a sour face at you. She was slightly transparent, like her visage was being projected onto the very air before you.
<span class="mu-r">“Really, there’s no need to shout. My hearing is just fine.”</span> she said with a slight scowl.
<span class="mu-r">“How did you know I was about to–-how are you doing-”</span> you began to say, before shaking your head with a sigh. <span class="mu-r">“Right. Telepath...”</span>
Web nodded, but remained silent.
<span class="mu-r">“Got any leads worth chasing? I could really use a win tonight.”</span> you said.
<span class="mu-r">“By all means, take your pick.”</span> she replied, extending a hand towards you. Your mind was suddenly flooded with all sorts of images and key phrases. It was disorienting as hell. Like an informative acid trip.
Which lead will you pursue?
>Some bozo is going around, breaking into rich folks’ homes and destroying their money!>A man in a giant wheel is chasing a man on a rocket propelled skateboard!>A pair of malformed miscreants are going around attacking homeless people!>More of those gamer terrorists are having a shoot-out with the cops!>Invite someone to join you.(Who?)>Deploy someone to deal with a separate task.(Write-in.)Pastebins:
