Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group...
It's our first session. Our characters, all previously normal people, wake to discover ourselves locked up with memories of having been experimented on and then forced to practice with powers that have been gained. We manage to escape our cells, make our way through the VIPER base (we soon discover), accidentally turn one of their scientists into Grond, keep out of his way while he goes rampaging through the base and then get out in all the confusion.
Once out we discover Grond is still rampaging and the police are waiting for the army so we go in to take him down ourselves. This we do nice and efficiently then leave before we are asked to pay for the building Grond ended up flying into.
Following this incident a government minister appears on TV regarding the incident and puts out a general request for super powered beings to come forward and become officially recognised superheroes; this being the UK that at the current time has only one. Not being entirely trusting we acquire a mobile from a guy in a pub and one of the characters makes the call while being driven around. He is talking to the minister who has just stated how impressed she was with the professional way we handled Grond when just at the moment there is a crash and a shout of 'Oh b*ll*cks' from the kitchen as one of the players has knocked over something.
Five minutes later when everyone has pulled themselves back together again the GM rules that it is this player's character who was driving the car and he has just run into the back of someone. To make it worse it is his wife's car. The rest of the phone conversation took place on foot.
