Set Fire To The Rain: Firefighting

[xp_cypher]

Various mansion firebugs pair off with other folks to quench the fires springing up all over the city.

Ty and Angel - Ty goes NOM NOM NOM and Angel directs things.

( Where to next, Morning Star? )

Johnny and Bobby - the Human Torch and Iceman bro it up, fire-and-ice style.

( Ain't nothin' to it but to do it, bro. )

John-John and Clea - John controls and directs fire while being pissed that he gets paired off with a wet-behind-the-ears witch.

( Oh, and we have to save the kitty. )

Set Fire To The Rain: Rescue Squad

[xp_cypher]

With all the chaos in the city, there are plenty of people needing rescues from cars and subways and the like.

Julian and Reed pull trapped people out of cars and discuss leadership, friendship, and other positive qualities.

( Clever makes me sound like a fox. It doesn't denote the leadership qualities that I am trying to get. )

Miles and Gabriel meet up with the other friendly neighborhood Spider-Man to help stop subway trains.

( A piggyback ride is so demeaning. I'm eighteen! )

Kyle rides herd on Pixie and Xavin as they evacuate buildings.

( X. MAKE FOR A WINDOW )

Set Fire To The Rain: Looter Patrol

[xp_cypher]

Some people will try and take advantage of any situation. A few of the punchier X-Men go out to convince people that's not a good idea.

Scott and Logan have a bit of a terse standoff with a certain star-spangled Avenger while they're out controlling crowds, and some unexpected history.

( Consider yourselves officially invited to the party. )

Garrison and Molly try to cool off some people, and still find time to discuss action figures and male anatomy. Kane's good at multitasking.

( Looting. Rioting. Shit set on fire. And yet, it is still calmer than a Walmart on Black Friday. )

Wade and Namor attempt to create a new sport - criminal-juggling.

( You know, in my day, criminals had the decency to at least be armed. )

Set Fire To The Rain: Medical

[xp_cypher]

Several Xavier's personnel lend their medical talents (or support of those with them) to help out with the emergency.

Nica and Rahne are distributing supplies and helping out when they wind up drafted by a certain doctor who smells like science and anger.

( If I vomit, I'll try to avoid yer shoes, sir. )

Laurie bears witness to 14 demonstrating an impressive medical skillset. Even if her bedside manner is...lacking.

( I've been trained for this type of thing since I was fourteen. )

Sharon and Clarice wrestle with paperwork, people freaking out over a purple medic, and so on.

( Want to do this together? )

Set Fire To The Rain: Enter The Android

[xp_cypher]

The X-Men and several of the Avengers finally encounter the cause of the fires. As well as a pain in the butt with three stars on his shoulders.

( Last name Ross, first name -General-. The army and the Guard will be taking it from here. )

Angel and Namor use their respective powers to herd the Man On Fire away from flammable things and civilians and the like.

( I am going to need so much chocolate after this. )

No one should ever let Kyle, Wade, and Spider-Man do the planning.

( Apologies in advance if I break into the song from Dirty Dancing. )

With the Man On Fire having problems, Garrison and Logan keep playing hot potato, Ross pulls his ace in the hole, things go poorly for him, and Namor gets to be a Big Damn Hero.

( I AM THE IMPERIUS REX. KNEEL. )

Set Fire To The Rain: Stinger

[xp_cypher]

Thaddeus Ross has time to reflect on the failings of his plan, and then something happens in the ambulance that sends everything in a very unexpected direction.

( Wunderbar. )
