Topic: Apology My Boss Didn't Force Me To Write.

Assault (Original Poster) (Confirmed Cape)
Just want to apologize to Nova for the insensitive photo and live stream I took of her first night out (Found here and here, respectively). But besides that, Nova's pretty sweet right? Took out Hookwolf and Rune first night out.

Just one question… WHAT THE EVER LOVING HELL? She's a goddamn horse! At first I thought this was some sort of joke but she been up everywhere in recent days. Is she some sort of Case 53?
►Kvothe24
The Chronicler, I think we have to assume she is. There is no way she could be a horse like that not be some sort of 53.
►Aria^2
Okay, she is a horse. The last eight pages have been freaking out about that. So how about we freak out about her powers? I mean seriously, she can fly, she can make a shield, she has telekinesis that can pick people up! Just check out this video from a a time when she broke up a gang fight between ABB and Industry. Link
►SamIAmNot
Aria^2, Holy Hell! She didn't just pick up a guy, she freakin threw three of them!
P.S. Anyone else notice she and Glory Girl hang out a lot?
►The Chronicler (Veteran Member)
SamIAmNot, Yeah, you're right. People have see them on patrol together six times the last two weeks. Then there is this video of them hitting a Merchant drug house, and this video of them getting in a fight with Oni Lee, and this video of them demolishing a drug warehouse. Literally.
I honestly didn't think there could be a hero better at destroying things than Glory Girl.
►GstringGirl
I wonder if we should give them a name like 'The Glory Duo' or 'The Justice Pair'.
►Chrome
GstringGirl, Those names are cringy as hell, but to be fair most pair names are. Anything beats 'Glory Horse' I suppose.
►Eolian57
Well, if no one is going to say it then the duty falls to me; I ship it.
►ArchmageEin (Guy in the know)
Goddamn it Eolian! We almost made it ten pages without shipping two capes together. This is why we can't have nice things!
►Eolian57
I regret nothing.
(Page 10 of 23)
►GstringGirl
Can you even ship them? I mean, one is a horse.
►Kivlin2
GstringGirl, It's the internet, anything is possible.
►S_Nova
GstringGirl, It's Alicorn actually. And I'd rather you didn't
►Kvothe24
S_Nova, Wait? How are you here? You don't have FINGERS!
►Assault (Confirmed Cape)
She has magic fingers.
►Chrome
Godammit Assault
►Eolian57
Assault you glorious bastard.
►Glory_Girl (Confirmed Cape)
Sadly, from what I've seen, he isn't that wrong.
►S_Nova
Glory Girl why?
►Eolian57
Trouble in paradise *wink* *wink*

►The Chronicler (Veteran Member)
Getting back on track, has anyone else seen "The Glory Gals" (still think that is a stupid name) anywhere?
► Xx_Void_Cowboy_xX
Nothing new, but has anyone notice that Nova seems smaller here than she does in this video? Is she growing bigger?
►Chrome
Ah, Void_Cowboy. It's been awhile since I've seen you bringing power speculation to a thread that isn't the power spec thread. We hardly see you anymore, something going on?
►Xx_Void_Cowboy_xX
Not much, I've just been Working.
And what do you mean nothing to do with it? This thread was about Assault's apology and has devolved into random talk about Nova. And what about your question about what I've been doing? What place does that have on here?
►Tin_Mother (Moderator)
Xx_Void_Cowboy_xX, It is still power speculation and should be kept to the appropriate thread, thank you.
►Kivlin2
But you know, I think Cowboy is right. Nova looks like she is a foot taller between photos.
►Chrome
Kivlin2, I thought we just said that should go to the power spec thread.
►Kivlin2
I'm not speculating it to be part of her power, I'm just saying that she does in fact seem bigger. Maybe she actually growing older?
►Bosdrid (Veteran Member)
Kivlin2, In just two weeks? If she is actually growing older she'll be dead in a year at that rate.
►Chrome
Bosdrid, Yeah, but the physiology of case 53s like that don't follow any rules we know of.
Topic: The Workers, Doctors, Industry, and Pedites?

Answer Key (Original Poster) (Girl in the know)
So anyone catch what's going on with these new gangs? They just popped up out of nowhere, which granted isn't that strange in this city, but they seem more organized than even the normal gangs. What gives?
(Page 1 of 3)
►Aku-42
I'm not sure but they seem to be on top of things. I saw them fighting with E88 this morning and they absolutely destroyed them.
►bothad
You got proof of that Aku-42
►Aku-42
bothad, go outside in Brockton Bay. There have been gang fights everywhere since Hookwolf went down. All you have to do is go near Doctor territory and you'll more than likely hear something.
►Char
You know, small gangs like these guys pop up all the time but normal disappear by now. Why are they sticking around?
► Loki_Lo
Char, because the Empire has its hands full dealing with the ABB pushing into their territory. Once things calm down between them or the four become too much of a nuisance the two big gangs will crack down on them.
►Char
Loki_Lo, I might believe that if the Empire had been actually fighting the ABB. Look, here shows that Lung, Oni Lee, and some sort of Tinker have show up eight times in the last to weeks to take territory. But this shows that Empire capes have only showed up once. What is the Empire doing? They're getting their butts kick and aren't even fighting back.
(Don't get me wrong, I don't like the Empire but I'd rather not have the city controlled by equally racist Asians.)
►Ekul
Char has a point, the Empire has been noticeably absent and not just in regards to the ABB. The Pedites have gotten very aggressive. Last week my sister's block was controlled by E88, but yesterday the Pedites show up at their door asking for protection money. Granted it was about a thrid of what the Empire was asking, but still.
►Loki_Lo
Ekul, I won't pretend to be an expert in gang tactics, but if I had to guess the Empire thinks it can't go toe to toe with Lung without Hookwolf so they're waiting for the ABB to over extend themselves into their territory before striking back. Then the ABB will be spread too thin to stop them.
►Ekul
Loki_Lo, Really? They have Menja and Fenja, not to mention Kaiser. Between Purity all the other capes they have they could easily take the ABB.
►Loki_Lo
All the more reason to let them tired themselves out fighting the normal humans in the gang.
(Page 2 of 3)
►Snake_eyes
But what are they even on about? I haven't even seen them recruiting anywhere, has anyone else.
►Ekul
Snake_Eye, I didn't realize until you pointed it out, but your right. My sister is near the Pedites and I know someone else by The Workers and neither seem to be actually recruiting anyone. Strange.
►Chrome
But we know they've got to be recruiting somehow. They do have members after all, and a lot of them. In fact, now that I think about it, how did know one notice them before? That is a lot of people in those gangs and no one seemed to notice them.
►TotallyNormalGuy
This is incredibly weird, but if anyone knows how to join up let me know. I might be a touch unhappy with my arrangements right now.
►AllSeer (Veteran Member)
Hmm, TotallyNormalGuy just made my realize something. Aren't these gangs a total win for Brockton Bay? Like before if you were white you were forced into the Empire and if you were Asain you were forced into the ABB, and that happen no matter what you believed. These gangs are taking in people all over the place, shouldn't more people be flocking to them if for no other reason to to get away from the other two gangs?
►Chrome
They might, if they knew where to sign up at. Honestly if they started having open sign ups they might soon out number the other two gangs in normal people, and wouldn't that annoy them?
►Snake_eyes
Chrome, I think you're forgetting that human power doesn't mean much in the face of parahumans. And we have seen any of The Four's parahumans.
►Chrome
We haven't seen them, but we know they're there. Plebeian, Proletarian, Civis, and Sapien. And oddly enough, aren't Plebeian and Proletarian basically the same thing?
(Also, The Four? As that what we're calling them?)
►Allseer (Veteran Member)
Maybe they're Thinkers or Tinkers? In this video they seem to use some sort of flammable gas. And here The Workers seem to use metal nets.
►Chrome
I doubt any of those were Tinker made, flammable gas is hardly a new invention and making nets has been around forever. What I find more interesting was how they used those to take capes. Did you see Oni Lee catch on fire here? He keep cloning himself and the fire followed him. Fucking hilarious.
Also, where are they getting all that stuff? They don't seem to be collecting nearly as much money as the other gangs.
(Page 3 of 3)
►Answer Key (Original Poster) (Girl in the know)
I don't know about that, but do you guys think they are working together? I know their territories are far apart from each other, but I have found a single source showing them fighting with each other.
►Chrome
I don't think they were at first, if they had been working together they could have taken much more territory working together. But they might be now, it makes too much sense that a bunch of the lesser gangs would band together to help each other against the much larger gangs.
►Snake_eyes
Chrome, I don't know. The overlap in some of their names are rather strange.
►Chrome
The over laps on appears with a few of them, not all. Probably just a coincidence.
So I'm sorry if this wasn't the quality for PHO interludes your used to, the PHO interlude generator doesn't work on my tiny little chromebook and my main laptop is still getting fixed. If it is a real problem for some people I'll replace it as soon as my main laptop is getting fixed.
