A Private Moment...

So we've discussed what our favorite Signature Characters do when out in the public eye, but what about when they're alone? We all have hidden quirks and secret masks that we only put on when no one else is around. Some of them might well get us arrested.

Not saying mine do... er... just sayin'... really... I'm perfectly normal when I'm all alone... absolutely... normal as the day is long... what? WHAT? Just... just read the danged list, would ya?

Manticore: When Sister Psyche goes away for the weekend only four words matter.... Danny DeVito Film Festival!

Scirocco: Sequined glove? Check. Full length mirror? Check. Sound system blasting Michael Jackson's "Bad"? Check. Okay, ready to undergo Self-Confidence Boosting Lip Synch Sequence One.

Mirror Spirit: A little self-reflection is always good for the soul.

Foreshadow: It's always good to reminisce a little bit about the near future.

Zwillinger: If I just practice it enough a broadway producer is SURE to sponsor my one-man play entitled "Phantom of the Sound of West Side Cats on a Hot Tin Rent of Oz!"

Lanaru the Mad: Gets caught up on the latest Steelclaw lists.

Ghost Widow: Desperately attempting seances and any means necessary to summon the spirit of Patrick Swayze from the beyond.

War Witch: Continues compiling the "Crisis of Infinite War Witches" compendium of all her various selves.

Beastyle: Holds a memorial service for the latest gray hair plucked from his head.

Anti-Matter: Agonizes over whether or not to finally revoke his membership in the Emperor Cole Fan Club... ultimately decides to give it one more week.

Captain Castillo: Mocks Beastyle's antics while reinforcing the layer of super-glue on his scalp to keep his hair in place prior to his color rinse.

Fusionette: Did not qualify for this category as private moments are few and far between when she is NOT in the clutches of one enemy group or another.

Dark Respite: Feverishly researching cloning so as to FINALLY be able to catch up with her video back-log.

Lord Recluse: Knit one... pearl two...

Statesman: Enjoying his latest scarf from the mysterious "Anonymous Admirer."

Lord Nemesis: Yet another prank call to the Paragon City Bus Administrative Offices telling them of yet another bomb placed on yet another random bus.

Tunnel-Rat: Wading through the horde of "helpful" emails advising her what movies, manga, anime, cartoons, youtube videos, memes, lolcats, video games and assorted other media she needs to experience in order to get her "Geek Cred" back.

Captain Mako: Little Mermaid on Blu-Ray and a pallet of Kleenex.

Silver Mantis: Every Navy Seals "Hell Week" documentary ever made and 50 cases of Gatorade.

Neuron: Revising his auto-biography "1001 Reasons I Love ME!" yet again because he keeps over-shooting his target number.

Arcanaville: Once more fighting the frightening allure of Numerology and its explanation of practically everything.

Shady Mac: Trying to perfect his pasta dish in an effort to finally cash in on his name.

Darrin Wade: Painting "MAGIC HERE" on the roof of the Midnighter's Club building for the next Rikti Invasion.

Television: Desperately trying to unscramble the Playboy Channel signal.

Steelclaw: About to lay down to actually get some sleep for a change when an idea for a lame joke list pops into his head and won't stop nattering at him until he gets up... boots the computer... goes on line and writes the bloody thing. (It should be noted that this list was written at 2:12 AM EST)


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

*has to retype a lot as giggling makes typing a challenge* Ooooooh! These are too funny/true! I would go to bed as well except the after-shock chuckles will keep me awake for a while yet.

Thank you for the laughs, Steelclaw. Hope you finally got some sleep!

There is only one thing appropriate enough for this:



Loved the Lord Nemesis and Captain Mako ones

Heeheehee I love it, especially the Statesman and Lord Recluse one.


Cancel the kitchen scraps for widows and lepers, no more merciful beheadings and call off christmas!

"Do you have Prince Albert in a can? No? Of course not! I, Lord Nemesis, have him! And I shall not release him until you bow before me, pitiful insects ... uh, why did I make this call, again?"

Loved it. As far as the time of night you did it...

You're a maniac, Steelclaw!

Wait, you live in Maine...

You're a maniac Mainiac, Steelclaw!


"How do you know you are on the side of good?" a Paragon citizen asked him. "How can we even know what is 'good'?"

"The Most High has spoken, even with His own blood," Melancton replied. "Surely we know."
