[Rolling over Michael comes face to face with some odd woman, not unattractive, but kind of not what he was expecting, pondering he hops up and looks around, then panics and runs out of the room]

Action 1 1489 Kramden Road

"SKEETS?  WHERE ARE YOU?  WHERE ARE MY PANTS?  DAMN IT!  YOU AREN'T SUPPOSED TO LET ME DRINK THAT MUCH?"

[Michael stomps about the house finally getting dressed in ordinary clothes but looking embarrassed]

"SKEETS?  THIS ISN'T FUNNY!....  Skeets?  This.....  Doesn't look like Vegas, or somewhere I'd pull something stuu....."

[He stops staring at the photos and blinks]

"Ok...  Wait...  Either I'm having a weird dream..."  [He pinches himself] "Or I got kidnapped in some funky...  I MADE THE BIG TIME!  Wait...  Isn't that a bad thing?"

Phone 1

"Operator, this is the famous super hero Booster Gold.  Now, I will gladly come and autograph any memorabilia you want if you can tell me just where I am or at least put me in contact with the Justice League.  Or the Justice Society.  Or really any major super hero group and or their publicist.  Or Skeets...  Where is he?  He probably knows where my suit is...  Anyways!  Just uh..  Please hurry!  I'm borrowing some clothes and this place is kinda creepy."

Action 2  Around town

[After being creeped out by drone wife for a bit Booster needed to get out, armed with nothing more than his confusion, stupid grin and lost expression he went out into the streets of Mayfield]

"Man, whenever this happens to Batman or Superman people respond a heck of a lot quicker...."

Mayfield.

It's like Leave it to Beaver but with more giant robots and fistfights.

"Wait! Does that mean I FINALLY got an arch nemesis that doesn't suck?!"

[boostedfailure.livejournal.com]

"Booster Gold. Its the name a pretty sounding thing like you is going to see ALL over the papers here! That's for sure!"

[boostedfailure.livejournal.com]

"So its some messed up other universe or something? Well... At least its not the WEIRDEST thing I've ever put up with."

[notsaul.livejournal.com]

Oh, that giant robot?

Was the Milkman.

Who was fighting the Postman.

With Pokemon.

That's up to you, though the ones in charge of this town do seem to be rather all-powerful. If it's a challenge you're looking for, it's a challenge you've found!

[boostedfailure.livejournal.com]

"Sounds like Japan."

[notsaul.livejournal.com]

Dude, racist.

Also, the Mayor and the Police Chief are in love. And that basically sums up everything you need to know!

[boostedfailure.livejournal.com]

"My friend... Who tells stories about the guy who beat up some mugger? Its always about who beat the guys who could warp reality and control time. I mean come on!"

[poisonivyforyou.livejournal.com]

...Of course. Nice to meet you, Booster.

[SHE GUESSES. The name doesn't ring a bell though, she guesses they hadn't met on her world yet.]

And welcome to the city.

[boostedfailure.livejournal.com]

"And if your flower shop needs any endorsements, you just ask old Booster!"

[He grins and there is a lens flare off his teeth, you can't see it, but that aura of idiot is all encompassing]

[lunawolves10th.livejournal.com]

Super hero?

[boostedfailure.livejournal.com]

"You know, fighting for truth, justice, the American way and good marketing? I've been in there with the big leagues! I was on the Justice League, and fought with Blue Beetle... Don't worry, as long as I'm here nobody has to worry!"

[lunawolves10th.livejournal.com]

I fear that while you are expressing noble ideals, the reality of this place is rather grim and dark, despite the initial appearance of things.

[boostedfailure.livejournal.com]

"My friend... Its only when things are their darkest that we are the closest to beating evil down and getting the awesome end! You know! The one with the Journey music, the drinks and the girls in bikinis!"

[boostedfailure.livejournal.com]

"I think the Japanese invented giant robots and pokemon... Or something. I dunno. As for the other stuff, that's all them."

Phone

[biophases.livejournal.com]

Oh, I'm sorry! But I don't think that will work. There's really no way to contact them here, unfortunately.

[lunawolves10th.livejournal.com]

What are journey music and bikinis?

[boostedfailure.livejournal.com]

"Yeah... That's what I keep hearing... But I mean this place seems kinda sleepy for a super hero and... There's some weird lady that says I'm married to her, and I haven't been drinking lately."

[boostedfailure.livejournal.com]

"...You're kidding, right?"

Action 2

[greatestmanll40.livejournal.com]

[Lex spots Booster and approaches.]

Booster?

So it seems Mayfield is willing to grab just about any cape these days.

[boostedfailure.livejournal.com]

[That voice... Ohcrapohcrapohcrap! He slowly turns and scratches the back of his head]

"Er... Hey Mr. Luthor. You know I haven't worn a cape since like the 80's. There was that incident."
