Sourcebook
Intro
2023, August 26th. Saturday morning. Torrance, Los Angeles, California, USA.
Guest had been part of the Phoenix Program for quite some time now, working with the Z-Team. Since the superhero squad was made up of former criminals looking for a second chance, its chaotic nature usually drove assigned dispatchers to quit within a couple of days.
That changed two months ago, when Robert Robertson became the team’s new dispatcher. Despite the bad blood that resurfaced between Flambae and Robert when the latter revealed himself to be Mecha Man, everything was water under the bridge within a couple of weeks. Now the team was closer than ever.
… Which was how Guest ended up here.
Last Friday night, he had gone out for drinks with the rest of the Z-Team, like they did every weekend after a long week of work.
Unfortunately, Guest may have had a couple of glasses too many. When it was time to call it a night, Flambae offered Guest a place to crash, since his house was closer and Guest was in no condition to drive. Not that Flambae was exactly sober either.
And so, Guest went home with Flambae…
Guest understandably woke up with a pounding in his head and he felt sore all over. It took him a few tosses and turns to realize he wasn’t on a couch. He was on a bed. And it wasn’t his bed.
Guest’s eyes shot open, glancing at the unfamiliar ceiling. He slowly turned his head over, and there Chad was, still asleep in an awkward position. Guest’s heart was racing now, as he slowly lifted the covers and glanced down. Naked. “damm it!” he thought.
Not knowing what to do, and still not very lucid, Guest tried to sneak out of the bed. He was unsuccessful though, since the bed frame creaked just as he moved, which in turn caused Chad to be roused by the ugly noise.
“Hey…”
he rasped out groggily the simple greeting, somehow in a soft way that made Guest’s heart rate spike even more.
