The Scallion

There is a tongue-in-cheek "news" paper in Paragon City called the Scallion. You may have heard about their sister company in this world.

Any-who, I happened across this article from them. If any of you happen to have others, feel free to add them.

The Origin of Disgust

Meta beings of natural origins have throwing knives, magical heroes or villains got their cantrip spells and even those technological wonders all seem to carry tazers up their fully armored sleeves.

But what about Mutants?

Mutants have an ability called Mutagen. They claim it’s simply a super power that every single one of them possess. An amino acid expectoration that does minimal damage and sometimes causes their opponents to choke for a bit.

The Scallion has discovered otherwise.

Our investigative reporters have done research into this so-called Super Spit Ball and discovered that this is no simple hock-a-loogie attack. For one thing, our staff watched several well known mutants use the power and in every single case they were throwing something with their hand. Further investigation revealed the mutants were not spitting into their hand and throwing it first. In every case the mutant seemed to be reaching towards their chest first before throwing their mutagen. We here at the Scallion filmed such an act with a super slow motion camera and were appalled to discover the hero reaching into their own armpit prior to throwing.

That’s right folks; mutants have been throwing their arm pit cheese at their enemies.

“Well it’s no freakin’ wonder we all fall to chokin’ and gaspin’ after getting’ hit with that stuff,” said a Hellion member who wished to remain anonymous. “You can just imagine the smell it gets up to after buildin’ up a sweat fightin’ all day.”

Although the PPD police chief refused comment, we here at the Scallion have received word that they are in heavy talks with both the Ban Roll-On and Right Guard companies regarding possible counter-measures from the villains of the mutant community.


My mind wanders so often you've probably seen its picture on milk cartons. - Me... the first person version of the third person Steelclaw
