day: 11th nighttime (after all new arrivals are out and about/getting settled)
content warnings: ground meat, being a good neighbor, boyfights

A. have you ever had a hot dog cooked by a guy named hotdog? this is going on instastories.

[ the time has come for frank to probably show all you losers what a hot dog is. for posterity or some such. he's been curing deer meat from a recent hunting trip with aloy and after their housemate reigen had soundproofed house six's kitchen, well. it seemed as good a time as any to put his plan in motion. not to mention he's in a good mood for once after encountering his best friend among the new arrivals.

early in the evening, frank will be piping his mixture into homemade casings with the doors to the back deck wide open for anyone to come pester him. and then later on of course he will be cooking them up with mustard he made and onions he found. he will also chop up pickles from the natives for anyone who gets down like that. none of y'all better ever ask him what a hot dog is ever again!!!

if you come in while he's cooking expect to be put to work, and did i mention he'll be downing rosé the whole time? e n j o y.

note: the kitchen is only soundproof when all the doors are closed. he will tell everyone on arrival this, so while he's cooking the doors will be shut but all other times feel free to mingle!! ]

B. the rules of fight club are bring snacks and make sure frank castle stays in bruises. tia for your contribution.

[ after posting up this little gem, frank has been steadily gathering members for his and mike's "club." his garage is a makeshift boxing arena and open for all any time they want to blow off steam or learn some new skills from punching bag himself. or from whoever else is lingering around. feel free to match yourselves and have a fight without him too, he'll ref!

the only rules of fight club are: bring snacks, agree with your partner on tactics: weapons/no weapons, fists only/every man for himself etc etc. AND when one person taps out or doesn't get up the match is over. the garage is approximately 80% soundproof. every fighter must wear wraps on their hands to muffle sound and agree not to shout or make loud noises, even in pain. soft-volume trash talking is allowed and perhaps even encouraged... ]

C. write your own starter or ping me for one!

[Huh. So, the one foreign hero he'd heard about was also in this situation? How convenient.]

Just checking in. It's important to touch base and know who's active in what areas.

[Clearly more important than the social niceties that came with interrupting a meal.]

Someone mentioned you before. National City. Is that American, European or something?

[iisupergirlii]

It's American.

[ did someone else mention her? Kara stares at the username associated with the message and tries to think. It's familiar. Where has she seen that before?

Oh! Was this that Eraserhead guy? The one who'd ghosted on her the second she said she was a reporter? Geez Louise. ]

Kara Danvers told me about you. Aren't you also a hero?

[dryeyes]

[Absolutely the one who ghosted when she said she was a reporter. He seems to wrinkle his nose at the fact Kara comes up at all.]

So you two have made contact. [It wasn't too dissimilar to his situation. He had his student, technically a civilian, to babysit as well. His wasn't a reporter though.]

That's right. I haven't managed to get my hero outfit back from them but I do have my ID.

[iisupergirlii]

[ it's not like she needs to see his credentials, but she's not a fan of the sour look on his face when Kara comes up. pardon her for getting offended at that, geez.

she holds up her hot dog in a mock toast with a wane smile. ]

Well, here's to saving the world then!

[dryeyes]

[He just knows he doesn't look the part. It doesn't bother him at home but here he's gotten so many mixed reactions. It's a pain!]

I'll take just getting home over that. [He seems to accept the toast, though, and seems to let a pause linger. It's not like he needed to interrupt her meal for longer than usual.]

[iisupergirlii]

[ not the answer Kara would hope for, or expect, from a "hero." hmm. she doesn't get that. it's so self-serving! ]

Of course, that's the end goal, but until then, we have to help the people here who can't defend themselves so easily. Right?

[dryeyes]

[He'd prefer to think of it as working within his limits. Not everyone is just "super" after all.]

Of course.

It's not like I can stop a sound eater, though, and I can't play police for this place. I'll do what I can.

[iisupergirlii]

[ well, it's not great, but it's a step up. Kara nods and gives him a thumbs up in support. ]
