Alright, some important stuff:

Ruby was tackled at 40MPH. This would be something like being tackled by a very large greyhound at a full-run. It won't kill, but it'll certainly knock the breath out of you, and would knock you out if you're not careful. I'll say that Friction stopped before any serious damage could be done.

However, Friction should be more careful. No matter what, that IS a forty mile an hour impact. Although neither will have lasting injuries, you'll both be feeling that impact in the morning. If it was much faster, I'd say Friction dislocated her shoulder or something, while Ruby would have bruised or busted an organ. As it is, you'll both have a NASTY bruise in the morning, and wish that the tackle had never happened.

Yeah, I'm hand waving some stuff. Just so everyone can stand on their own two feet after this. Realistically, I'd say you'd both be in the hospital, and that wouldn't be very fun IMO. So you're both (mostly) fine.

Also, I'll be checking out and sending PMs to inactive Heroes. Hoping everything is good on that front.
I'm still here. I've been a little busy today, but I've been here every night on the TitanPad waiting for anyone to show up. I haven't really had a need to post, everything was still going very smoothly last night when I checked everything. I'm going to go review everything that has gone on.
Malmshodes, you could interact with Bennett or follow, either one really. If you want to interact with players, probably go to the ambulance and see what's up.
AcerRo: I assume it was you who posted in the TitanPad? You all don't have to wait for me to get something up. I try to be on between 8 and 10 EST, and if you would like GM-controlled NPCs and for me to advance the plot faster. However, if you and another player or two want to get some IC discussions/planning or action, feel free to do so without me! However, if you feel like I need to be there to make a decision, stop posting and PM me or say something in the chat. I'll go check up on it and make a ruling when I can.

Loki: Sorry, not accepting right now. I'm having a hard time keeping up with things as it is, and my schedule will be filling up more soon I believe.

I definitely think there's some confusion in the IC right now. Before posting or responding to other characters, make sure you have a good reason to. Either they're in the same group as you, or you have some manner of contact with them. But yes, Nosuchthing's character Jack is a Merc. In the OP I have all the groups listed, along with its players and characters.

Now, my schedule may be filling up soon. My personal life is filling with drama right now, and I'm currently looking for a job. I should be able to keep up despite all of this, but I may send out PMs at some point asking if anyone would like to Co-GM with me. They'd have access to my plot line and NPCs, and I'd trust their judgement on days I can't be around. Not gonna start asking yet, but sometime soon it may come up.

EDIT: The ambulance scene is also somewhat confusing.. I believe Lupus is there.
Silent Resonance: That's fine. You'll be away on business or vacation through the first arc. Sound good?
Nosuchthing: Alright, retconned.

It's nice to see everyone coming together and interacting! I'm still watching and reading everything, looking good.

Also, all of the current heroes are now together! It's pretty exciting!
Nosuchthing: I wasn't sure if anyone wanted their identities known, so I figured first-name only would be fine. Nobody knows your full identity except the department you work under and their superiors, and anyone capable of learning your identities won't need your given name anyways.

Arlear: I'll let you stay in for now. Just try and keep up a good effort posting, even if they aren't long posts, and we'll see where things go for now.

Thanks for the kind words guys, I'll try and post more here and there.
There's a lot going on as everyone works themselves into position! Keep up the work guys, and I hope you like the fluff post I just put up. It took longer than I wanted, I messed up the formatting site directory, but I think it's nice for what it is.

>>>General Discussion>>>Metahuman News>>>Violence in Maywood[p37]

[ESCapricorn][MWS]>I don't understand why there's so much controversy over Caro handing over the Mercenaries! I know some of you guys totally fanboy over them, but seriously, they're only hurting our community in the long run. I know most of this stuff is just rumors, but I heard from a good source that a major data leak over at Aperture Labs was carreid out by a Merc. APERTURE. You know, the billion-dollar futurist company, the one that has a history of WEAPONS DEVELOPMENT!? We defend these crooks, and then wonder why there's so much violence on the streets! To hell with them!

[BlackMamba][MWS]> I know what you're saying, Capricorn, but I can't really agree with you. Yeah, these guys are doing bad things like everyone else, but they also do some good. A lot of them are crazy, but my own source said that his college buddy paid for one of the hired guns. He worked cheap, and got the job done fast. I won't say what he did, but let's just say that fire over on Keystone was no accident. The guy caught in it deserved what he got, fucking monster.

[LAcopperman][LAPD INFORMANT]> say what you want, I'm just glad this shit storm is about to end. All of these bombings have made my job an absolute hell. I'll try and keep you all up to date.

[Crimson][CHICAGO CAPE]> I feel sorry for everyone caught in this cross fire, and I send my sincerest apologies. Caro and his gang truly are monsters. I know I speak for all my compatriots when I say that I hope Valentin gets his just deserts.

[CriMeARiver]> CRIMSON! <33333 I LUV U! I agree fuk Caro!

[ESCapricorn][MWS]> BalckMamba, even if the man was a monster, that is WRONG. He should have been brought to court and tried fairly, like ANY OTHER PERSON. Did he deserve what he got? Maybe, but that doesn't change that he has basic human rights. Get over your blatant fanboy hard on for underworld Mercs and GROW UP!

[Micah][MODERATOR]> Please keep this discussion civil. I understand being a Maywood survivor must put an incredible amount of stress on you both, but I will not hesitate to ban either of you.
>>>General Discussion>>>Fan Clubs>>>The Heroes!![p1]

[BorealisLights]> So, has anyone else thought about the new guys protecting LA? Maybe I'm just into bad boys, but Ray and Connor are soo cool looking! Adrian is also really cute, but really not my type. I don't know about the girls, they all seem really cool and strong too. I think they're gonna do a good job, maybe even better than the Magi!

[KurtBCE][KNIGHTS FC PRES]> Are you kidding?! They may seem really cool, but there's no way they'll stand up to the memory of the Magi. I don't even understand why they pulled the Magi out of LA, it's ridiculous. Anyways, The Heroes look good, even if their name is cliched, but not Magi good. And of course, they're nowhere near The Knights(;

[BadMCboi]> the girls of the heroes are all really hot. i mean come on, they're smoking!!! neo, roze, eve, i mean damn. maybe they're not the best looking team, but they're the best LOOKING team hahah!

[Fazoodleshoot][MWS][GOLD CONTRIBUTOR]> The Heroes have only been around for a short while, a couple of months at most? Anyways, they're good. I've seen them in action a couple of times, I've heard friends and family talk about seeing them, and they're not bad at all. I think the biggest problem is that there's so few. I mean, a city as big as LA should have a dozen capes! Instead, they're all either in DC or overseas! I like the Heroes, but WHY AREN'T THERE MORE!?

[BlackMamba][MWS]> I disagree Fazoodle, we give the Fed capes enough respect. They get paid more in a year than a Marine does in two, and they have great health benefits. Back on topic, the Heroes are doing ok. Maywood is still burning, my brother is in the hospital.. but I suppose they're doing their job. I have to admit, I'm kind of crushing on the girls..

[TrinityBlade]> I love the Heroes! They're doing a good job filling in the gap the Magi made when they left, and I'm definitely a fan!
General Discussion>>>Metahuman Discussion>>>Why do we allow corporations to hire capes?

[CCKing]>Vados, you just have to look at the Maywood incident to see why your theories are completely wrong. The Cabrillo Group has a number of capes under their hire, and so far they haven't made any moves to attack the NTE. Some corporations could conceivably raise a small army, but they would be NOTHING compared to the US Military Capes. They have nearly a thousand in their employ! Not to mention we have the Guardians! Who would DARE cross our nation's protectors? Yeah, maybe the military capes aren't great, but the Guardians are all S Rank! Nobody stands a chance! So yeah. You're wrong.

[VadosG]> Umm, except that there's plenty of corporations out there? Are you forgetting that there are dozens of multi-billion dollar corporations out there? We can already see that most of them are clamoring to hire any cape out there! I will also use Cabrillo Group's capes as my example! Honestly, do you expect them to just stand by and do nothing? I guartuntee something is going to go down. Valentin's boys have just destroyed a Cabrillo warehouse full of electronics worth MILLIONS! They won't stand for it! And with four powerful capes under their lead, they're going to stomp on the NTE if they don't stop.

[CCKing]> Your argument is based soley on hypotheticals, Vados. IF the NTE doesn't stop, IF Cabrillo is angry, IF the capes will even obey those orders, IF the fed capes don't solve everything first! You watch, Cabrillo will sit on its ass and let the feds take care of their problem for free. The most they'll have their team do is respond to attacks. Watch.

[LAcopperman][LAPD INFORMANT]> I can say, for certain, that the LAPD has Valentin firmly under control and under protection by The Heroes. We will work on the plea bargain, and we hope the terrorist attacks by his organization will end. It is unfortunate that we do not keep him in custody, though. I don't know what's going through Chief's head. Any way, the Cabrillo capes will play very little into this process, or at least that's what my information states.

[VadosG]> But they WILL play a part, you're saying? I knew it!

[CCKing]> Shut up, Vados. Geeze.

Great posts, everyone! I've enjoyed reading them all! Unfortunately, family matter's have come up and I will not be here at the promised time. However, I may be on later tonight.

Nosuchthing: I apologize, I'll edit it in when I get the chance.
