Legion World Forums LEGION OUTPOST Mission Monitor Board Cobalt's Office of Security - Post-Crisis

Some kid named Sam who she thinks is the just the nicest guy in the whole world...but in reality is just another dirty-minded you kid trying to get boozed up and then "you know".

Furball is willing to work backup for this thing.

I think at this point we might as well co-opt the Legion World High School Prom and open it up to the entire LMB. On the condition that every LMBer must come up with some sort of cover story for why they're there.

Mine is I'm going to hit it [off] with Everyday Girl's art teacher, Ms. Bella.

Plus, this way I can survey the Senior Class for ladies who will be turning 18 shortly and might make, er, good interns at the security office.

Mr Cobalt?

Brit asked me to stop by here and have a few words with you.

Hello Sam. What do you need? Are you looking for an internship? I thought you had that whole EMT gig.

One of the assistants will get you the proper forms to fill out. If Brit vouches for you I'm sure it will speed up the process.

<looks around>

And by the way, I think Dev-Em spilled the beans about that night out you and Tony had a few weeks back. I know I'm to blame but they expect that behavior from me.

Look Mr Cobalt, We stopped for two beers at SHAKES. That's not any big deal. She already knew about that.

And No I'm not looking for an internship. <Glances over at one of the Intern Lass triplets who's listening in on their conversation while pretending to manually enter data into the computer.> I'm pretty sure I don't fit the profile of what you're looking for in an intern.

I'll be blunt Mr. Cobalt. Brit thinks you're gonna try to break us up, to protect her from me. Cuz you think I'm just trying to get into her pants and once I do I'll lose interest in her.

You're wrong. I love her. And if you try to come between us you'll be making a big mistake.

Is he rhreatening rou Cobie?

Ooooooookay tough guy. Listen kid, no offense, but you can stop your posturing. I'm sure you're tough as nails on the magno ball court, but you haven't exactly conquered parts of the Dark Oval.

As for Brit...let's just say my recollection of that night was more than just two beers at SHAKES. You fooled Space Ranger and Matlock and that takes some skill, but I know my own kind when I smell it.

You're looking to get a little action and then you're going to toss her aside when you're done. Look at you--by that clean cut look you'll probably be snorting cocaine and playing omni-com poker in no time. Well guess what, sport? Not only will Everyday Girl blast off your kneecaps, I'll make sure I get to you first.

You're like a little Dr. Doom just waiting to happen.

Hi Furball, Have those mangy spots on your back cleared up yet?

That cream Doc One gave you should have done the trick.

Mr Cobalt, I came by to tell you that I'm in love with Brit and nothing is gonna change that. But, it seems you think I'm some junior league version of you, a merciless lothario.

It doesn't work that way for me. But you go ahead and keep an eye on me. One thing I don't mind is people looking out for the best interests of the girl I love.

I'll show myself out...

Any punk kid can come in off the street and insult one of the galaxy's greatest heroes. But I guess it didn't take much to show your true colors, eh "Pureheart"? :rolleyes:

<Kid leaves>

Ha! Like I never used that trick before! How do you think I got my first few Princesses? I go tell her father I love the daughter and I'd be glad to have the Knights keep an eye on me.

Next thing you know, the Princess is sneaking me into her bedroom after I save the planet and then Lardy shows up in a villianous costume and kidnaps me! Add in a "the atmosphere of your planet is killing me" and a few good bye omni-messages and its a job well done.

God, if I had a credit for every time Lardy showed up in an odd outfit...

Careful Cobie, that young man is a whole lot tougher than he looks. You've worked with him more than once, so you know I'm right and you always spoke very highly of him... before today.

He didn't grow a second head when he started dating Brit.

He's a good kid Cobie. In fact he's a lot more like you than he'll admit. You and he have the same amount of back-up in you, NONE!

You should have been there the day he met Hrun. He gave Brit a kiss on the cheek and Hrun yelled "You Dare!" Then launched his axe at the kid's head. Kid caught the axe, walked up to Hrun and handed it back to him, Then looked him dead in the eye and asked if he wanted to try a second shot.

Truth and Justice shall Prevail!
(Hrun deemed him worthy of his daughter.)

Wow, everyone seems to be telling the real Chief of Security to be careful today. Not sure why there is another person walking around here with that title at teh ready.

Trust me on this though, Cobie is tougher than he looks as well...and so are the rest of us.

I don't know Ranger...I know you'll always protect Brit, but you're tendency to see in black & white means you sometimes might be off about those of us in the gray area. Not often, mind you, but sometimes.

But okay, that's a good story with Hrun. Maybe he's not all bad. You know no matter how tough I think he might be I'll never admit to it.

I'll keep an eye on him.

<aside>

BTW Dev, I totally blamed you for spilling the beans about that little guy's night out. Think of it as me going under cover to <strike>ruin this kid's Prom</strike> make sure his intentions are noble.

(pops in)

Cobie, be careful.

someone spilled a truckload of castor oil in front of your front door. Most of it's been cleaned up, but it's pretty slippery.

I'd be careful if I were you.

(wanders off)

Is cool Cobie. I can take whatever comes my way for that one. Whatever it takes to <strike>take this kid down</strike> get the job done.

If you want to be the LMBP Leader, maybe you should find out who the current cast of characters are Dev. The roster has changed quite a bit over the years. I joined just after Legion World Started. But I'm kind of a low profile guy, so maybe you just didn't notice me.

Cobie didn't start the Security Office by himself. He and I started it, Together!

Truth and Justice shall Prevail!
(Back during the Crujectra administration.)

Thanks for clarifying that. Maybe if you at work more often, I would have noticed you.

I'm glad you two have met. Better our powerhouses all know one another. Dev, you'll like the Ranger a lot; his attitude toward crime is pleasantly extreme.

But Sammy Pureheart showing up here has convinced me more than ever we need a full Security detail at the LW Prom when it happens, which I suspect will be right after the new LMB leaders are announced. (AKA: postathon!!! )

wOOt

Anybody seen the broad that was supposed to be cleaning out my tank?

I thought she went out to get a drink, but apparently...she took off.

lousy interns ...
