[action 1: daytime, Justice League Sirocco HQ]

[Booster's down at JLS HQ, surveying the damage done by the oni and everyone's favorite intrepid time travelers. Other than the new improvised skylight, the damage is thankfully mostly superficial, and the building's not really that much worse off than it was when Booster first acquired the place. Overall, definitely salvageable.

Booster stares at the hole in the roof for a while before he starts... laughing?]

Man! I am so stupid! I honestly thought we could manage to stay in the black this month! What a joke, right?

[He bends over and sets one of the surviving chairs upright, solely so he can collapse into it dramatically.]

Well, gotta face the music sometime. Our government budget's just not big enough to make ends meet on its own. But don't worry about it, they don't call me the Corporate Crusader for nothing! I'll get this sorted out, no problem.

[It's almost like the past few weeks never happened.]

[action 2: nighttime, the rooftops of Sirocco]



[As always, Supernova can be spotted patrolling the night skies. He's understandably more distracted than usual, often spending a long time standing around on a single rooftop before moving on. It makes it pretty damn easy to track him down for a conversation, if anyone wants one after everything that's happened recently.]

Hey guys, kind of a weird question for you today. Has anybody noticed any kind of connection between the kind of stuff they remember and what current events are in Sirocco when they remember it?

"Not to put to fine a point on it, but your..." he makes a tumbling gesture with one wing in an attempt to come up with a proper word. "...organisation was indicated to me as a potential source of these... anemoi things. Now--my source was not terribly specific, so I took it upon myself to obtain my answers directly." He dusts plaster off of another chair with one wing. "Are you, in fact, a source of anemoi and, if so, what are your requirements for obtaining some?"

Yes, we do that, and no, there aren't any requirements, just. Not now, OK? Come back in like a week when we've got this mess cleaned up.

Shen looks about, then casually tips a filing cabinet back upright with one foot with only the slightest wince of pain. "Or I could aid you in your efforts and get it done that much faster."
