"Where's Rubedo?" he demanded.īandit and I glanced at each other before shrugging simultaneously. Said cape looked around at the five of us, the LED lights and tesla coils in his costume sparking with annoyance. He was a year older than me and never let me forget it. That left us with a whopping three new members, including our leader, Carnival Flux. With the eldest members gone, Wards Team Three had ceased to exist and were simply folded into Team One and Team Two. Stingray was still with us, she worked under Oathkeeper now, but Ranchero and Wildshot had been transferred out in some director-level draft pick that was way above my paygrade, Ranchero to Albuquerque and Wildshot to San Antonio. Stingray, Ranchero, and Wildshot of Team Three had all moved on into the Protectorate. We were all seated around the coffee table in the Wards' common room. Petricite existing at this point leads to interesting possibilities involving vial triggers though so that is what I am most interested in seeing if Rubedo's existence makes waves with TBH.Īfter Manton eats Hero and an endbringer smashes a town the next day in cannon, the next 'big event' would be Ellisburg in the spring of the following year. Were dangerously close (under 2 months) to the Manton incident happening in cannon. I'm surprised that nobody has tried to con him to making more pots to support his friends and the people who keep them all safe. The PRT should want our MC relatively weak and more than anything else reliant on the system. What would happen instead is an increased patrol presence by police in his neighborhood and/or a complete relocation. Instead, when he's caught using that light gun he is incredibly likely to get it taken from him and have all sorts of questions being sent his way. Handing Rubedo a gun and outfitting him for battle would also betray the whole 'we don't make child soldiers' message the Wards state and the YG is worried about the PRT/Prot doing. They're also not going to want him to have a gun because he's the 'healing cape' that generates tons of goodwill and PR sans big pharma being upset and trying to pull NEPEA shenanigans to curtail his actions. The MC is 8 so you can absolutely guarantee he isn't getting permission. Between the PR and the YG there wasn't a change in hell of Vista having a gun or taser or anything of that note and she was 12/13. On the note of arming Rubedo? PRT is still gonna PR.
People like to point at a really bad thing that happened when hindsight 'proves' it. The New Wave movement dies at that point entirely and I think it is also why BB in cannon even acted like the rules needed to be followed and respected.
The bay probably takes it more seriously post 07 when Fleur gets gibbed by a cape that wants to join the Empire.
It only really starts being fully respected in the next decade or so. Unmasking and 'the unwritten rules' in general at this point in the wormverse is sort of a hit and miss thing (2000).
