[ The video that starts doesn't show a person. Robbie is currently enjoying the sheer novelty of the internet not having a single picture of his face. He wants to enjoy it for however long it lasts, so he's got the camera flipped to stream from the non-selfie camera. ]

[ Right now, he has it focused on a laptop. It has a youtube video up, including a visualizer. ]

Good evening, fellow heroes. This is DJ Robbie B, bringing you the sweet sounds of your smooth jazz favorites. Next up: all you lovers out there have will have your ears gently caressed by the musical stylings of Wham! For the uninitiated that's "Wham!" with an exclamation point at the end. The exclamation point denotes quality because how could artists who have that much enthusiasm about their band name be bad?

[ "Careless Whisper" by Wham! starts to play on his laptop. And...doesn't stop. He plays the entire song. ]

[ Never at any point does he show his face. Instead he keeps the phone's camera flipped and directed at the laptop. ]

[ He wants to talk to people because he needs to make some friends and allies at some point. After he moves out of the hotel, heroing alone and then going home to an empty apartment every single day is the kind of self-punishment he's trying to get away from. Since Thrash and Nita came back, he's been safely wrapped up in the comforting bubble of his team. He's a social animal, an instinct that clashes tremendously with his other general desire to hide in a concrete hole. ]

[ The latter desire is blissfully a little weaker here, in a world where no one will already know his name unless they're from back home. He feels like he can actually breathe a little for once. Like the crushing weight that always rests on his chest is a little lighter. ]

[ It feels better.]

[ (It also feels wrong to enjoy it. Does he even deserve something other than infamy?) ]

[ He's also still self conscious about being perceived as egging for attention, so that's another reason to hide his face, right?. He'll be Sir Not Appearing On This App. After all, how can he get famous if the only people who know what he looks like are ones he meets in person? ]

[ The song finally ends. ]

Mmm, just makes you want to hold your sweetheart close and dance the night away.

Now, let's shift the mood to something a little more lively. For the Belieber in all of us, I'll be streaming the entire discography of Justin Bieber.

[ It should be obvious by now that this guys's a mischievous little so-and-so. ]

Or you can tell me a little about yourselves, starting with your tastes in media. Books, music, movies, TV, go crazy.

I'll even rank them if you want. As a certified style maven, (who isn't currently just wearing a hoodie, I swear), I know what's hot and what's not.
