[Phone]

Ok. For all you guys who heard Omi's phone call the other day? All true, except the communist bit. Ok, so I'm an assassin back home. That florist job I keep makin' noise about? Just my day job.

He's lying about the communist thing so ignore that! I MEAN IT!

I...I'm sorry for lying to all of you, and I know you guys are gonna hate me for this...[He's sad, this truth will make him loose all his friends who think he's a nice, normal dude.] I just wanted a normal life for a while...If it makes you feel any better I don't really enjoy it. Now anyways. Apparently later in my future I start to. Thanks a fuckin' lot Schuldig.

Also, I used to play pro soccer, but my best friend at the time totally screwed me over and destroyed my life. I miss those days, though I kinda wish I could resurrect him and tear him apart again. [This line is followed by a snort of satisfaction.]

[Click....then reclick as he picks it back up.]

You know, thinkin' on it, I actually don't mind the florist job though. I mean, you spend all night destroying life, and all day tending to it. It's kinda relaxing even if the guys make me haul the heavy shit around more then actually doing the arrangements.

Also, Miakis is the best teddy bear known to man, it's like she's a nightmare sponge or something.

Remind me never to stand between you and freedom.

[He gave a bit of a laugh at that though.]

Hey, you'd be running for that door with me, I don't think you'd get in my way at all. [Ken doesn't mind the Cap's gallows humour in this case, it just reassures him more that the Captain is ok with him still if he's willing to joke like this.]

Besides, all I got is metal, you're fuckin' invulnerable.

[Yeah, he would be fighting beside Ken.

And it's not like The Captain hasn't murdered before. Mostly accidents or bad guys but still.]

That's true, but you know how much it stings to be jabbed by a blade?

Plus, it's not like I can find many shirts like this around town you know.

Well, I'm used to fighting in a team so it's not likely I'd get you by accident, if that makes you feel any better.

Besides, don't we got tailors now?

Yeah I guess we do. I wonder if they can repair t-shirts without stupid obvious stitches.

You never know unless you ask. Why, you already got a hole in yours?

Yeah, it's in the back though. Also, it's kinda stained.

That probably wouldn't be too hard to fix I don't think. The stain might be the bigger issue.

Maybe...

I can't let my drone wife take care of it though, she tries to throw my costume out.

True, it's not a suit and it is pretty ratty. Except for the coat, that seems to have held up pretty well.

Hey, I like it better than the suits so I'll deal with ratty.

I should do something about that sometime...

You should! I bet there's a tailor that's willin' to exchange work for work or a favour that you could do.

Yeah, like lift their car or something stupid.

I'll try sometime.

Good idea! Besides, you never know, you might make a new friend.

Yeah, friends. A lot the people here just like telling me I am a terrible super hero.

The rest are you and some kids.

Sure you're no Ultra man, but you're trying your hardest. I think that counts for a lot.

Ultra man?

Now that's kinda a cool name.

[Still, maybe a hint of a smile hearing that bit of reassurance.]

Yeah! He was really awesome and....well, fictional. You're real. Look Cap, I believe in you alright?

[Hey, the captain proved he was going to be there for Ken, and Ken was determined to be able to return the favourr]
