You just had to be there. That time period of TV in the early 2000s where the fastest way to kill off a character was to send them to Iraq.

When Bruce is feeling petty he'll arrange an interview with the Daily Planet and specifically request Clark, then spend the entire interview in character as Brucie, refusing to break no matter how many times Clark tells him to knock it off, and then Clark has to write an article on whatever inane topic Bruce could come up with.

Roomba

Honestly Danny would be the first to admit that trying to overshadow anything after the Technus incident was a bad idea. But he was also a very bored teenager, visiting a strange city at the request of his older sister so, can you blame him?

It had seemed like a fun idea to the halfa the moment he saw a small roomba in a store window in Gotham. It didn't look like many wanted to buy it but it was there anyway.

So yes, Danny could admit that it was all a strange combination of his boredom and lack of sleep because before he knew it he had overshadowed the damn roomba, causing the light above it to glow bright green.

It was just luck that some of his powers worked, because he made it through the store window with no problems, and had some fun chasing the denizens of Gotham all over the place.

It wasn't so much fun when he realized he was stuck inside the roomba; or when some people started to look at the machine curiously, trying to catch it.

He managed to escape with some luck and set about being a real nuisance to anyone he came across, including the clown laughing like a maniac and the live scarecrow, because well, what other option did he have besides waiting for it to sort itself out?

It wasn't long before the bats heard the report of "a roomba on the loose" in disbelief. Dick wondered if Alfred would appreciate them bringing the machine to the mansion to help him with cleaning.

The CIA vs Clark Kent; the mark of a journalist

Our story tonight takes us out of Gotham City and lands us in Metropolis (see related articles), nicknamed the Gilded City by many of its residents and Gothamites alike.

Recently concerns have been raised surrounding a well known reporter, Clark Kent, and the potential threats posed to his life by our own government. There have been several notable articles of his critiquing the US government as well as two notable anonymous attempts on his life as of late, this combination has led to many netizens speculating that he may be falling victim to the reporters curse (see related articles).

The reporters curse is the nickname for a well known conspiracy stating that the CIA has a tendency to eliminate investigative journalists that get to close to the ‘truth’ and/or are gaining to much sway when criticizing governmental agencies and decisions.

There have been many a case of this happening, many of which are simply speculative but the CIA has admitted to committing a fair swath of these assassinations as well (see related articles). Many of these unconfirmed incidents have enough evidence that many people believe this theory to be fact.

Mr. Kent is an investigative journalist for The Daily Planet (see related articles), a newspaper based in Metropolis and a subsidiary of Wayne Enterprises. His career spans nearly two decades and his history of finding the truth regardless of danger fits the profile of those fallen to the reporters curse to a T.

Mr. Kent was the inspiration for many modern journalists, though the man not even 50. Most journalists have to live and die by their work before reaching a fraction of the influence Mr. Kent has had over the world of journalism.

Whatever the case may be for whoever is behind the two recent attacks on Mr. Kent’s life, we urge the journalist to take precautions and want to thank him for his service.

"I think..."

"...you have followed me..."

"...far enough."

Incident Report: Witness came to my office in Wailer custody. He (elezen, 45, Hyrstmill) was quite shaken and claimed to have been followed on through the forest. He described a hyuran woman (late twenties to mid thirties, long, ashen hair and skin, dirty gray tunic; no eye color given—he reported that her eyes were naught but whites) staring at him from behind a tree on the roadside, smiling unnaturally. As he approached the tree where the woman hid, she ran around it and, per his claim, disappeared. He had little cause for concern until she saw the same woman hiding behind another tree just a few hundred yalms up the road. Witness claims not to have seen the woman pass him on the roadside, nor did he see any usual movement in the trees. He called out, but she deigned to neither respond nor to move. He carried on down the road, keeping an eye upon the woman as he passed, then turned to check the road ahead when she was out of sight once again. He then saw her a third time, some fifteen yalms ahead, now peeking from behind Galvanth's Spire. Witness then began to run from the authorities, which prompted them to give chase and arrest him for suspicious behavior. Wailers report seeing no woman approach and new footsteps could be found.

Investigator's note: Woman loosely fits the description of a missing person report filed last autumn that the Wailers were charged with investigating. They neither found the woman nor recovered remains (attributed to wildlife; she disappeared during the peak of annual funguar activity). I'll need to confirm her identity, which means I'll have to get close, and that presents a problem if she slips away whenever someone draws near. I have a hunch she is simply a pawn for a much larger threat that will only reveal itself once a potential victim follows her deeper into the wood. Wonderful. I leave in the morning.
