Together we have the strength, courage, and compassion to save not just one or two, but countless of our homes.

Arms brought to his chest, Mark cast his attention towards his fellow Viltrumite. Expression stern, seriousness lay woven throughout his partially masked visage.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❝ Look, man… If you’re really going to try this – just know… We, the #𝐆𝐎𝐓𝐆 🌎 will stop you. ❞

Space, cold and vast, was always a spectacle thing to witness. The distant stars, the planet from afar, and of course… an escape from most problems. Well… not really, but mostly.

A thought filled his head as eyes danced between the stars. Unfortunately this

Problems. There were always problems, no matter where he went. From minor to major, it was a part of life – part of truly living.

page, Allen. I know you didn’t exactly choose to be stuck in this situation with me, but we’re gonna get it all sorted out. This is… just the first step needed. At least I think so — man, if only Robot was here… Or even the Mauler’s…’

What was it that Mark wanted?
Home… He missed them. Friends, family – the people who made his life what it was today. Yet, despite everything, he couldn’t abandon a world in need. He was a hero. Saving people, it’s what they do.

Now that holidays are coming to and end and I’m hastily recovering from being sick ( again ) things will finally continue to progress here.
Happy new year everyone! Stay safe, drink water, and enjoy what this year has to offer! 💛

confession was nothing short of embarrassing.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ‘ Well… The broadcast is set up, right? For all of the world to see? Or, even better, the galaxy? ’
Questioning this to himself, his opposing hand retrieved a small remote device from his suit. A single button sat

Small update:
Got the results back from my recent doctor visit and all is good! That’s a huge load of stress scraped off my shoulders, meaning I can finally put that motivation into pushing forward.
I want to apologize, again, for being MIA due to all of this.
Love y’all. 💛

Throughout the world, the galaxy, and the far reaches of space, a signal was sent.

Index pointing and placing her as the center of attention, he continued without skipping a beat.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❝ You did some good, Supergirl. Real good. That’s the kinda person our world needs most. Don’t suppose you’re… in the market for a team, are you? ❞
Finally free for the first time in days, Mark finds himself soaring throughout the sky – completely unbound as he finally takes a moment to enjoy the peace.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❝ Ahh — ❞
A sigh of relief escapes his lips as he lays back.
@InASingleBlow
only make so many guesses.
Super-something?
Samantha?
…This was hard.
Rather than risk entertaining another superhero name fiasco, he simply offered a hand to bridge the distance between them.

He was flying solo today.
No Cecil.
No dad.
Not even Oliver or Eve.

himself cast into the same universe as a certain Spider-Man. Of course every universe was different and to assume this was the exact same one was almost silly – but even so, it made for moderate small talk as they approached the rooftop together.
