Pop Culture Talk Around

Ok, not sure how this is going to turn out, but I think it might be fun. The premise is this - a large room, like a group therapy session, but not necessarily therapy, just talking. The people in attendance are superheroes, movie heroes/characters TV/cartoon characters. One after another we post a statement/comment/question in character of whomever we choose.

You can add stage direction or minor actions but keep in mind, its not a story we’re doing, just characters talking to each other. Your post can be a question by itself, or a direct reply to some other post.

I will serve as the moderator and bring up discussions and/or questions. I might even chime in from time to time as a character. Lets just make sure that we don’t get to long winded. No big monologues, just conversation. I hope this can go on for a long time, just like a continuous discussion thread. Also, please end your post with who the character is, in case it’s not blatantly obvious.
Let’s begin …

"Thank you all for coming together for this panel. I hope we can keep things civil as I know some of you may have a reputation of not playing well with others. I just wanted to start by asking you all what your weekend was like? Did you go out? See friends? Stay in? What did you do?

Anyone??"

It was a nice quiet weekend for a change. I wandered around the morgues, the funeral homes, the cemeteries, but nothing was amiss. I did get a bargain on garlic at the supermarket, though.

Van Helsing?

Please PP, finish your post with the character name. Also, you can be more than one character. You don’t need to stick with one all the time.

Correct on Van Helsing.

I’m sorry. I thought the idea is to try to guess who each other is. Duly noted.

“Very interesting, Van Helsing … Anyone else have a good weekend? Or maybe a bad one?”

I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time… like tears in rain… Time to die. - Roy Batty
