I' Have a story idea which is posted in the way of a conversation between Max Index and an English Aristocrat of his aquaintence. I have more detail in my head should anyone want it.
Here it is, let me know what you think.........
"Max, how goes it in the wilds of Metrobay?"
"I can't complain Gerald. England still giving you a meagre living?"
"Actually old chap things are looking up. Managed to blunt that big thorn in my side."
"You defeated English Rose? I hadn't heard."
"Not so much defeated old chap. More married."
"You MARRIED Her?"
"Absolutely, the opportunity arose and as the old saying goes. Make love not war."
"But you married your arch enemy."
"You always were quick witted Max."
"I dont understand."
"It's simple. It didn't matter how many time I caught her, how often I depowered her, defeated her, deflowered her. One or more of her friends always pulled her out of the fire before her petals had wilted. So I married her and all her annoying little costumed friends could do was come to the wedding."
"You seduced her? How? Last I heard she hated your blue blooded guts."
"Well I had a little help. Fennella Devine DeVere. Old friend of the family. Odd little filly, set herself up in business. Calls herself The Wedding Planner, a chap just points out his bride of choice, hands over a chunk of his inheritance et voila Fenella delivers the blushing bride."
"But how."
"Didn't ask old chap, just followed instructions broke out the morning suit, booked The Abbey and roused all me chums. Cut a long story short, did a little wooing, that went well, did a little screwing that went even better and then walked her up the aisle with a smile on her face and nothing but love in her mind."
"But her friends must have suspected."
"Absolutely old chap, tested her for everything from Bubonic plague to Brainwashing, they had her psyhco-analysed, poked and prodded by a raft of experts but at the end of the day all they could say was that she loved me. One of em even gave her away. English Rose is now Mrs Gerald Effingham, Ffordham St Clavicle."
"This woman you hired?"
"Fennella"
"Do you have a card?"
"Indeed I do, got your eye on one of the Metrobay costumed fillies eh?"
"Actually Gerald I was thinking about all of them."
"All of them!"
"What can I sat Gerald. I'm a generous man. Why not spread the love around a little. I can think of plenty of ROPE executives who could make use of a nice loving superheroine wife."
"Damn you if you didn't always think big Index."
"That my English friend is an understatement."
