[ Now that the sickness is finally disappearing, everyone can get back to living their normal life. Granted, she is certain that some are still recovering so Lena being, well, Lena, has a question for everyone. It's one that she hopes will help distract some people and maybe give them a chance to gush about something cool.

That, and she gets to learn more about the different worlds out there. ]

Okay! I think this is on and working. I don't usually do an entire network call like this, but, uh, hey! Lena here, with some questions for you guys! Does anyone have heroes in their world? Because I'd love to learn about the different types of heroes out there. [ Because who doesn't love to learn about that. ]

Also, I'm actually kind of curious to know if anyone here is one... a superhero or just a good ol' hero is good enough for me. I'd love to meet you! Be kind of good to have some sort of hero club or if we can work together in the future if something like this ever happens again.

But, I hope it doesn't. [ Because nobody deserves to get sick. Still, the idea around it is still there in case anything big happens and the royal guard can't just look after it -- assuming it's in an area where they are. ] So if you're a hero then hit me up! If you have a favourite hero, let me know about them.

Cheers!

Well, I suppose it depends on your definition of a hero.

[ "Superhero" as a word existed in her time — but even if comic books were popular with the boys on the battlefield, Peggy herself never partook. Something to do with fighting alongside one of the figures that featured prominently in them. ]

[quevalry]

A hero is someone that fights for justice! They protect the weak or at least those that aren't able to defend themselves.

[ That is what she likes to think at least. ]

[Akutagawa was one of the last people who should say anything about heroes, but that's exactly why he has to say something.]

There are no such thing as heroes. Those who consider themselves as such are only fools who don't know how to stay out of the way.

[quevalry]

But there are heroes. Parents are heroes to their children, after all, those that fight wars and such are ones too.

[ y u gotta be a grump. ]

I would suppose there are as many heroes as there are villains on Hydaelyn, but I suspect you wish to know of the truly great ones, the ones who would be immortalized in the tales of bards.

I had the pleasure of meeting one such hero, and even teaching them for a time.

[quevalry]

Oh man! Any are welcomed, but they sound so cool. What type of person are they? Was it easy to teach them? Are they someone that's here?

what qualifies someone as a hero?

[quevalry]

Someone that is kind, caring and willing to protect others.

[it's Reinhardt. And he's beaming at her. He's still a year or so from the Recall so he doesn't know it's coming. Still, he's utterly ecstatic.]

Balderich was the greatest of heroes. But you know that those I worked with were just as great as he. Even you are a hero. I look up to you, Lena. You are amazing. And if you call, I will answer. My shield is yours. Always.

[quevalry]

He sure was, but you're a great hero too!

[ Beams back brightly with rainbows. ] Haha, really? I dunno if there's anything to look up to, but thanks, Reinhardt! You're someone I look up to, too. It's great to know you have my back.

[It's not really his style to bring it up but, well, this is sort of relevant to him as a matter of fact.]

Back home I was the chosen Hero.

[A pause, and you can practically hear the shrug in his voice.]

At least, that's what I was called.

[quevalry]

Woah! A chosen Hero? So, you're like, super special in that case?

[ Here's an incoming bout of questions. ]

Hi Lena!

We've already talked about this, so you know my answer, haha. Are you getting any good responses? A superhero team would be super cool!

[quevalry]

That I do!

And, yeah, I am. Some people [ coughreapercough ] are being, y'know, negative about it, but I won't pay much attention to them. There's a whole world full of positive people that I can talk to instead, like you!

[Gotta get introductions out of the way first. Manners and all.]

what's the difference between a hero and a superhero?

[quevalry]

[ senpai, pls. ]

pleasure to meet you, terra!

and, i feel like a superhero is someone with super powers and then a hero is someone just without them.

I'll be honest and say I got a little worried about you because I haven't seen you in a whike, haha.

[braidedwonder]

I would say yes but I don't really think there's heroes in a war. Who's the hero largely depends on whose side your on, and all that good shit.

[quevalry]

[ He has a good point. ]

True, but there are some wars where there is clearly a bad guy or a bad side, so heroes come from that. ... I mean, to me, those who aren't doing horrible acts deserve to be called heroes.

[snailenvy]

Heroes are full of crack. Helping out your friends and stuff is just that. Saving random people...well, find me one person who isn't doing it for some self-serving reason and maybe we'll talk.

[quevalry]

Now, that isn't true. I don't think I do it for a self-serving reason... I do it because I like being able to help people.

Heeeeey, Lena! You forgot to mention the part where you're a superhero, too!

[ Yeah, he's still on about that. ]

But, uh...if you...need like, club photos? Please let me know. Please please please...

[ He's not quite audacious enough to think he could be a part of anything like a heroes club, even if he did play a role in trying to save his own world. That was - different. Besides, he's still not sure how cut out he really is for all that heroing business. ]

[quevalry]

Pbft, nobody needs to know that!

[ Except you, Prompto, and a select few. ]

You'll be the first person that I'll ask and ... why wouldn't you be included in the club? I mean, you're a hero too!

[ He helped them hunt down people and look after the people who were ill. ]

Oh. Well. Some people--I mean, people back in Exandria, where we're from--they call my friends and I heroes?

[ Keyleth doesn't buy it, and never has. Heroes don't leave so much chaos in their wake. Heroes get, and deserve, happy endings. So, clearly, not heroes. ]

[quevalry]

Cool! I'm guessing you must have helped or saved a lot of people, then? Or animals, or towns or something like that.

[ just save and help anything, lbr. ]

[ she debates even responding — Lena had been kind to her, and Sansa has no desire to dampen the mood, nor bring about a disagreement that does not need to be.

There are no heroes. Not where I come from. [ a concession, the only one she can make:that perhaps elsewhere, true heroes exist.

(but she doubts, how she doubts it. in life, monsters win.) ]

dokis at sansa either way

[quevalry]

Maybe I can be your hero then! [ because everyone deserves to have a hero in their life.

that, and she's actually grown fond of sansa from their short talks. ]

I'm sorry to hear that though. ... Not even siblings or parents?

Back where I came from, plenty of people were named "heroes". Hard to say if I have a favourite.

What kind of heroes? [ Gotta give her all those deets, Ocelot. ] Never had one you looked up to as a kid?

What does it mean, "super hero"?

( it is kind of adorable she doesn't know this, and, )

The friends I made in my mission seemed much like heroes to me. I would say they are my favorite.

[quevalry]

A superhero has superpowers! Special abilities, all that jazz. I guess... uh... an example is someone being able to fly or super strength.

[ or teleport through time. y'know, basic stuff. ]

Missions? So, you've done some spy stuff or military? That's cool that they're heroes to you and your favourite!

back home, it was just me. hero is a hard title to live up to, but i ... i did my best, i guess.

( hero meetings would be pretty damn difficult when he wears a mask all the time, no matter how tempting they sound, but either way: ) it is good to see there are so many of us here.

[quevalry]

[ peter, pls. ]

that's a shame. about you being alone -- i bet you did your best though!

and i can say the same. it's exciting to meet so many new people who are heroes or know of them. it helps me feel like, i'unno, asking shouldn't be a regret.

Well… I'd say, my best friend is a hero. Even got dubbed Junior Hero in one of the- [worlds.] -places he visited.

[Hades may or may not have had a few choice words about that. Then again, Hades really does seem to have it out for anyone who might have a claim on the hero title, considering the grudge he nurses against Hercules.]

That's so cool! Is he here? Because I would love the chance to meet him in that case.
