Hello, again! Here's the fifth teaser, featuring our two newest applicants and a few older ones!

This teaser is more light-hearted, featuring some hero banter.

I'm thinking about making the deadline the end of November or maybe early December? But I'll finalize it when we've gotten ten applicants! I love writing for all of your characters, so thank you to everyone who has applied!

Enjoy, guys!

hero banter

"All I'm saying is that there's no way we'll get caught if we just sneak off for a bit for some...fun," Supernova stated with a grin growing on his lips, elbow gently nudging Voltage's shoulder.

It didn't bother him that his words were very audible to the other heroes around them. Foxglove rose a brow in her two seniors' direction. Meanwhile, Nightmare ignored both Supernova's antics and Boki's constant chatter, which only stopped for a second to allow her giggle at Supernova's obvious flirting.

Voltage merely cut her eyes at the sudden unwanted contact, and she brushed Supernova's obnoxious remnants of glitter from his jacket off of her own costume. "Touch me again, and I'll use every available current to shock the hell out of you."

The man simply smiled in response and questioned, "What do you mean? I'm harmless." His hands went up in the air to signify his innocence. "I've been telling you for over a year now that I'm attracted to shorties who—"

The shorty in question scoffed, interrupting the rest of his sentence. "You're attracted to everyone. Go away, Nova. Go bother someone else."

As if being cued to do so, Nightmare lightly pushed Boki towards Supernova and returned to the red lipstick she was reapplying. "Yeah, Boki-ssi was just telling me about some romcom drama she watched. Maybe you should show her what real life romance looks like."

Supernova eyed the girl suspiciously as her cheeks reddened immediately. "Hello, Nova oppa! I don't think we've gotten a chance to meet yet. I'm Boki, and—"

"How old are you?"

Boki could barely get the words almost eighteen out of before Supernova was on the other side of the room, continuing his flirting with a male hero of a more appropriate age.

She looked so disheartened at the interaction that Voltage almost pitied her. "Boki, isn't it?" Though Boki practically beamed at the older woman when she was acknowledged, Voltage knew she was interacting more for her own benefit than her junior's. She studied the girl for a second more before asking, "What can you do again?"

"I have unbreakable skin!" Boki boasted happily. "I haven't been on too many missions, yet. But I've been working closely with Nightmare unnie recently, and we make a really good team! I can protect her while she uses her darkness."

Voltage eyed Nightmare, who was behind Boki trying her best to enjoy the peace she hadn't had a moment of since Boki was paired with her. She glanced over and gave a small shrug and a nod.

Boki happened to see the exchange as well, and, if it was even possible, she perked up even more. She went on and on about some side missions, surveillance, and helping 777 with something. Voltage, however, wasn't really listening anymore. Instead, she was grabbing her phone to feel the electricity running through it. As Boki continued rambling, she stuck her hand out towards the girl and shocked her.

The room went silent as Boki stopped speaking to gasp in shock. "Did you try to shock me, unnie?"

"Yeah, I did. You really do have unbreakable skin. Pretty cool."

Boki smiled at her senior, pouncing forward to hug her. Voltage stiffened in shock, but Boki didn't seem to notice. "Thank you so much! I can't wait until we can work beside each other!"

Supernova was back on their side of the room just as quick as he'd left, whispering to Voltage, who was still trapped by Boki's arms. "See? I just want you to do that to me in bed."

Chapter 14: You’re so proficient at describing fight scenes I can really picture the combat between Nightmare and Voltage.
I’m not sure if Voltage is truthful or trying to gaslight the other hero, though. In any case, Nightmare’s silence to Faye’s question makes it seem like she believes her.
The ‘Simon Says’ ability seems super cool, and it’s so useful, this way the villains have time to pick up their things in relative peace. It could also be a good way to end a fight without bloodshed.
That guitar riff opening is a good choice to musically underlie the fight scene.

So Heros that switch sides are taken to a glass prison… sounds a little dystopian for the good guys.
I feel bad for Aisa, it seems like he really needs a break. And somehow, the Ringmaster seems pretty humane and accepting of his choices for a villain, I’m not sure if the two individuals appearing at the end are like this as well…

Chapter 14: how voltage got herself away with that nonsense is beyond me because if i had been nightmare or any other member of the might, i would've not let her get away with that. i wouldn't be surprised if members start surveilling her even more closely, and the next time she gets caught (if she gets caught), she may really be done in for.

honestly, the ringmaster's plan of temporarily retreating and hiding seems like the best strategy to make after such recent events. la voix's reluctance to leave korea because of his sister is so cute! boo seems like such an interesting character, especially her powers. i wonder if mori would be coming along to japan or not with the ring considering the fact she technically isn't on the ring's 'side'. when aisa ended up getting ambushed, i had to look back to the subjects page 'cause i was curious as to who the two figures were and whether they had any former relationship with aisa but then stopped myself because i'd rather have some things kept as a surprise and such. can't wait until the next chapter! i wonder what it will be focusing on, and once again, happy new year!

Chapter 14: Wow actually putting out regular chapters? I could never :’)

Always a treat to read! I’m shocked Voltage was able to talk herself out of that, I wonder how long she’ll be able to keep the spying up for. I really wish I had something more interesting to say, dcneuidix. But I’m really enjoying it ^^

Chapter 14: DUDE! Voltage holy crap don't give me a heart attack!!! Even if she somehow scapes the consequences of what she did, she will need to be much MUCH more careful now, since eyes will be on her.

Ooh Nova somehow using air powers because Gemini is an air sign xD That's clever and creative! For a milisecond there I thought that Supernova had just exausted himself and the hand was a friend trying to stop him from falling but alas, it was exactly the opposite! I had a huge mental "OH " when the Ringmaster and Ogong started to fight and a "oh daaamn" when I read "simon says" and even the heroes who were far away heard it!!!!
Is Reverb suspicious? I guess Faye is just tired and she doesn't want to care anymore n.n'

When put that way, it was really a very crazy week for Aisa! Also, I love the idea of the Ring going to ask for help to Boo, but HOW they will move everyone to JAPAN??? Sooooo La Voix's weak spot is this sister of his. I do hope the Might doesn't get to know that :p Also, Gravi and Aisa are giving me young puppy befriends older cat vibes xD hahahaha

DUUUUDEEEEEEEEEEE!!! THOSE TWO!!! This aparition gave me lowkey chills! (relentessly screaming??? what's going on in Demon's mind??? Tho i'm zero surprised that Checkered has sinister thoughts lol) I just love the vibes that those two give. They are terrifying and very attractive and probably insane in different ways. To me, the reader, I'm loving it, but poor Aisa is the one alone with those mad lads, and I have a feeling they will somehow try to recruit/intimidate/threaten/blackmail him into joining their side and- R.I.P's Aisa sanity if they do.

The cliffhanger thooooooooooo ;w;

Happy Holidays/New Year!

Chapter 13: It's fun to see how the heroes have to balance doing their job and being public figures. Some, like Supernova, seem to thrive in it xD It's always fun to see Voltage and Nova banther. Reberb also seems to be a really nice guy that gets along with everyone. And star reading is something so crazy that it sounds almost like magic, more than some other superpowers xD

Ogong clearly is a favorite of the goverment because of his high colaborativity. Using his powers in public would probably cause expulsion or harsher punishment it it was someone else, but I guess that Golden Boy Ogong can be left alone with just a short suspensio xD And duuuude! He's now officially the eyes and ears of the higher ups amidst the heroes! And of course he would love that lol

Dude, Reverb can find someone just by looking for the sound of their voice????!! Considering the nature of sound waves, it means it must be pretty hard to hide from him! Also, it really looks like Reverb and Faye have history. Not romantic, necessarily, but they fore sure seems to have known each other for a long time.

AAAHHHH OMG is Voltage turning coats NOW?! I imagined it would a bit less on the nose, but I guess that with this attack against the camp being pretty much inexcapable, she doesn't have many options. Tho it's a pitty that she was with Nightmare. They seemed to somewhat get along. :')

But I guess it will be funny to see Ogong's reaction that a betrayal happened right under his watch. xD

Chapter 13: First chapter!! You are a hero for getting this out so quickly! A legend! The fact that their two strongest heros and probably most trained are on a secret mission is so interesting and mysterious. What could it be? Seeing how all of them are using their powers together is so cool! Especially seeing Supernova in action is so unique and interesting! I really enjoy voltage and knowing she's a spy/traitor makes it so tense. The way you write Reverb is so cute and I love his interactions with Faye. Are they just friendly or does someone have a crush? It's cute either way and I just like how friendly they are, not just them but seeing how the group reacts to Ogong coming back too. And it's so ironic that he's looking for a traitor and then voltage strikes nightmare? So tense and dramatic! The group dynamics you've written really are great to read! And how they are using their powers in AN ACTUAL mission is really fun to read! But you left us on a cliffhanger! I'm excited for more!!

Chapter 12: I'm late! But I love how you are able to use all these characters povs! I also am so grateful for the subjects page because it helps for me to flip to it sometimes to remember someone! Aisa seems so interesting! I hope we see more of him! Gravikinesis sounds also like he'll be interesting because he's one of the newer villains maybe? But the transition to the heroes was well done too! I like hearing their thoughts and the interactions between Reverb and Faye was very cute! Nia and Aceso's interaction was also a mystery and what is happening to Paragon? I really enjoyed VR Angel's pov and also how you fit in Aceso's bitterness towards her having the angel name! And Bloody Dove definitely gives me jinx vibes for sure! This is going to be fun!

Chapter 13: supernova's power sort of reminded me of dr strange when he was seeing all the possible futures in infinity war LOL and i love how the heroes are able to joke with one another. supernova sounds like a fun guy and i would def love to hear the gossip one day 🤣 also i had no idea about the ogong & vita incident... def need to catch up on reading the teasers.
it also totally went over my head that voltage was a spy, and right after the government asked ogong to keep an eye out for his team members the reveal happens. i wonder if there will be any changes to the team now that voltage has been revealed to be a spy as well as what the ring's purposes are for this mission. and ohhh the real and 777 on a secret mission? i'm v excited to see how the story will unfold <3
lastly, the interactions between reverb and faye are so cute my heart is <3 i had to go back to his app and saw his trivia where he hates driving and i'm definitely amazed by how you're able to capture all these little details onto the story! the gif on the left also seems to perfect capture how faye feels about working on this mission LOL

Chapter 13: your productivity is RIDICULOUS. and that's a compliment!
I had the subjects chapter open as I read along and I loved putting the names to faces and visualizing everything that was happening.
faye & reverb are adorable. very nice to see her having a friend by her side who puts a genuine smile on her face - which makes me sad for zeus because her two (2) friends are constantly elsewhere lol I thought she'd be snarkier towards supernova but her placidness makes sense as well since she's not close with everyone else and isn't in a relaxed environment.
I love how well you made the powers mesh together - reverb defeaning them, then faye removing their cover while nightmare makes their surroundings less visible? genius.
and while I already knew voltage was a spy from her app, the way it was dropped was amazing! I like how you utilised reverb for that as well.
this was a great read! super excited for what's coming <3

Chapter 12: What I love with this being the last teaser, is that when you look back to the others, you can clearly see a thread of plot linking them together. And even if all the characters here were new to us, somewhat it didn't feel clunky or weird. It felt very smooth and grounded. Everyone had their roles, they interacted like they knew each other when they did, and nothing felt over-explained (or under-explained). Maybe the profile of the characters helped to at least put names to faces. But in general, this was a great cliffhanger to end (or maybe start!) the story.

Also, I see that Dove seems quite dramatic in her actions, and her profile doesn't say she's exactly allied with the Ring, even if she did help them. Any chance that she's free to join the Brotherhood? xD
