RUE MOORE HAS IT: APRIL EDITION
Hey Meta-Cuties, Rue here. And do I ever have it for you today.
Fantastic is once again our headliner! Love that for him. Despite the projected success of his latest flick and all the cold hard cash he's earned from being the reigning champ of Meta Mingle, it turns out that the windy wonder is more than a little stingy. Our favorite star racked up thousand dollar bill and refused to tip.
My source, who has requested anonymity, stated the following:
"Our restaurant is the hotspot for capes. I know some of them by name now. Last week, Fantastic and his entourage came in and I have never been treated so poorly in my life. They were loud, rude, messy, and super inappropriate. And I don't mean that as a pun. When it came time to pay, Fantastic handled the bill and left me a nice little note on the receipt:
2 cent tip
What an asshole!."
A little digging suggests that this happened at Flambabe's Eatery. But I didn't tell you that little secret.
I think somebody needs to teach this flyboy some manners before he crashes and burns... just like his love life. The on again off again couple are officially off again. Our favorite non-meta influencer, Katherine West, was posted a few hours after the ghost invasion saying that it was time to mingle with some real men. Ouch.
Moving right along, there are some new faces in the news...
Someone is apparently having the saddest 21st birthday ever. New meta Harry Osborne was seen shopping for a single-serving birthday cake, and trying to bargain a liquor store clerk into selling him a bottle of whiskey even though he has no ID.
And in breaking news, Mr. Osborn appears to be involved in some truly interesting extracurriculars.
[ the screen cuts away from rue to video footage. The footage shows one (1) Harry Osborn leaping out of a nearby tree to land dramatically on the cab of a semi truck. Sporting aviator shades and a leather trench coat, he proceeds to easily wrestle the driver out of his seat and toss him onto the road. And then, a clean getaway with the goods! ]
Maybe he's more a bad boy than a sad one.
We haven't heard back on just what Mr. Osborn was doing. Stay tuned for next month's broadcast for that deep dish and more, because it seems as though some new criminals are out to ruin everybody in Excelsior's day.
We've got news of several instances of fuel trucks being hijacked by a myriad of different actors, all at night or early morning hours. The large variation might suggest some sneaky new criminal organization organization is coming out to play. Why not? With all the new metas running around, some of them have to be here to disrupt the status quo. Our source also linked us this little tidbit...
[ Grainy 2 AM footage of some kind of fancy aircraft flying northward into the forest with an airlifted fuel tank. ]
If you've got any hot tips, we'd love to hear them.
Also new in the news, up and coming star Alina Starkov apparently has some strong feelings about how the world views metahumans.
Leaked comments from ourpowers show this new-on-the-scene meta claiming that she's been a target of anti-meta sentiments — includes quotes from here like "[some people] don't like metas just because we're metas. our power threatens them." and "i mean they send metas to a special school for a reason. it's not just to keep other people safe from us — we're targets."
Are your ears piqued, cape fans? A special school for metas? And who would dare to cause problems for everybody's new guiding light! We reached out for comment and Miss Alina's claws came right out. We love a girl who knows how to set boundaries! Shame the fans won't.
And while not a meta, there are rumblings about a new PI in town. A Mr. Bruce Wayne has opened a PI business. Mr. Wayne states that as an alternative to the police for problems they're having has been spreading if only by word of mouth.
Inspiring words, Mr. Wayne! We can't wait to see what you do next.
Finally, a dark lich of the night has been attacking criminals at in Central City. For the first time in a long time, some of the most dangerous streets seem to have quieted down. Is this what our not so fair city needs to get back on the straight and narrow?
And with that, I gotta close off with another BATDAB.
[ she proceeds to do so. ]
Things are starting to get really interesting around here, aren't they? Keep those rumors coming, cuties. Until next time.

My comparison isn't kind. Good people are trying to survive in a city suffocating under the threat of crime and corruption from the same people who are supposed to protect them. While they fatten their bellies on the wealth and spirit of this city, it's my job to finish what they haven't. If that sounds close to home for anyone, then call me.
Also, I've been having problems with my digital card reader? So I can only take cash right now. No, I can't break hundreds. And if anyone in any of the other cities need me, don't worry... I fly by night.

@h.osborn
THAT WASN'T ME!!

Leaping out of a tree and stealing a semi truck? YOU'VE GOT THE WRONG GUY!! ]
@ramen
no subject
I didn't steal a fucking tractor trailer truck!!
let's see how long he's going to maintain this expression
no subject
I couldn't do that ninja leap bullshit even if I wanted to!
no subject
as the video shows
you don't have to be a ninja to make that leap either
i'm pretty sure anybody can make that leap
no subject
I couldn't make it.
I'd slide off the hood of that truck like a wet pancake.
no subject
no subject
some shapeshifting mother of fuck stole my face and used it to commit crimes or some shit!!
no subject
no subject
oh, fuck off.
this rumor mill tabloid crap is bullshit.
no subject
i get that you were having a bad day but maybe you should just return the truck and apologize
no subject
go look at the parking lot outside the Diadem, if you see a truck parked there, then fine, I'll return it
except you won't find one there because I DIDN'T FUCKING STEAL IT.
no subject
if you REALLY didn't steal it then you should find the person who did to clear your name or else everyone is gonna keep thinking you did it
( do your best harry osborn, you sad old man! )
and the deadpan icon spree comes to an end after 6
👏👏👏
and if you need help, you can count me in

I don’t care if it’s true or not, you’re not doing yourself any favors right now.

[ He's just lashing out because he's angry about 1) his dirty laundry being aired, and 2) being falsely accused of something he didn't do. He'll calm down eventually. ]
what do I do about this? I have no fucking idea who stole my face!
no subject
You don’t yell on the internet, for starters. It makes you look more guilty, whether it’s the truth or not.
Second… we look into it. Boots to ground. Maybe someone with a shapeshifting ability took your face. Can you think of anyone that might have a grudge against you? One of your unsuspecting mugging victims, maybe?
no subject
there might be some people with grudges against an alternate universe version of me, or of my dad. apparently my old man was some kind of supervillain in some worlds? I don't fucking know.
i thought i'd replied to this, RIP
Ah, that's a good point, maybe. It's a starting point, at least.

back home people love the avengers but there are more people with powers than just them
if youre born with powers people expect you to do something with them

it just comes from fear
