[This video opens up to a redheaded guy in what looks like a pretty tiny apartment kitchen. Anyone who attends Kaisou High School will likely recognize him as the music teacher]

Erm...is this some kind of phishing or crypto scam? Because you're really wasting you're time if it is, I'm broke. If you need proof, I can show you my cupboard of ramen and eggs.

[He sighs, muttering to himself anxiously]

I really don't need this right now...

[A closer comparison would probably be describing stuff to Leonardo da Vinci after he's had a couple years to befriend a sci-fi engineer, so it's both better and way, way worse--]

...By that broad definition, I would have qualified as a superhero once upon a time.

[Which... is a weird, weird feeling.]

But that example does sound uncannily like the situation a couple I know found themselves in.

[Not that the drama of it hadn't been resolved well before he got there, but you learn a lot when people don't think they're within your hearing range.]

[fiddlestick]

Is that so? [...] Well, I guess I could see it! Yeah!

[He'd place this guy in a fantasy before a superhero comic, but hey he's not completely out of place!]

Does it? So thinking of the multiverse like superhero comics shows it isn't off?

[four_quarts]

I'd have to read a few to properly confirm it, but based on your description, yes.

[A pause.]

...Is it common for superheroes to be a part of a team, or are they mostly the type to work alone?

[fiddlestick]

Um...it depends on the series? Like there's a lot of solo superhero things, but when there's big team ups, it's usually treated like it's a big deal.

[ok so Elliot's knowledge of superheroes might be slightly limited to just mainstream movies]

[four_quarts]

[Elliot is valid, and it's not like Ghaleon would know the difference.]

So it's most often the equivalent of a bunch of famous people teaming up for a common goal, and only occasionally a band who almost exclusively work together. I'm guessing they tend to have cooler sounding names than "the Four Heroes" too, hm?

[fiddlestick]

[He gives a shrug]

They tend to? But I guess people's opinions vary on that. Like the Terrific Trio is pretty close to that....then again every movie about them usually turns out terrible so maybe that has something to do with it...

[Oh even in this world the fantastic four's equivalent can't catch a break]
