“It’s ALL part of the FUN! Isn’t that right folks? HA HA HA if you remembered it wouldn’t be as entertaining! For us, at least.” Alan tapped his foot as the contestant scrolled through the numerous options, giving a shrug when he inquired about the color of his chosen ability. “Red not GOOD ENOUGH for you, hm? SURE WHY NOT! Pick a color, any color!”
———❝ SOMETHING THAT MATCHES MY EYES. is green too tacky? ❞ a fluttering of lashes as the screen before him opened another tab. selecting from a set of colors, the man chose his desired emerald. his own abilities did not grant him the same option of choice, but the green inferno ( which had become somewhat of a brand for him ) seemed only natural for inquiry.
“AHAH! THAT’S THE SPIRIT! LET’S GIVE HIM A HAND!” Alan addresses the audience with that trademark smile before turning back to the new contestant and gesturing to the empty seat. “SIT! You remember the rules, yes?”
———❝ WELL, AT THE MOMENT. what good are rules if i won’t remember them? ❞ he quirked a brow, finding his seat beside a pair of faceless teammates. the screen buzzed bright, elliot scrolling through power after power until he landed on one very familiar ability.
“ Are you SURE you wanna do this kid ? There’s NO BACKING OUT once you’re in ! We’re talkin’ TOTAL TERROR here, though you do get some pretty sweet powers. ”
———❝ I CANNOT SAY I’VE NEVER BEEN CALLED KID BEFORE. but it lessens with each passing year. ❞ the man smiled, suddenly taken aback with how he’d been plucked from the audience.
❝ i’ll take the risk ; it’s not like i haven’t done it before for similar reasons. ❞
