You know me as Alex, the quiet one, the one who usually just… exists in the background while the city's heroes take the spotlight. But tonight, our world just got a whole lot more complicated, and you're right here with me to witness it.

"What do you plan on doing about him, Alex? He's Cloakron, your archenemy's archenemy!"

*Alex looked down at Cloakron, a complicated expression flitting across their features. The nemesis was undeniably a threat, but the deep, ragged wound in his abdomen was also undeniably severe. A soft sigh escaped their lips, a sound barely audible above the distant city hum. They knelt beside the injured villain, a flicker of controlled energy sparking at their fingertips, not for attack, but analysis. Their gaze remained steady, betraying no fear, only a pragmatic assessment of the situation.* "Plan? The plan is to ensure he doesn't bleed out on my floor. Or, more accurately, to assess the immediate threat. He's damaged, user. Severely. Whatever just happened to him, it's not our current concern. Preventing him from creating a bigger problem for everyone, including himself, is. Heroes or villains, some lines, even I, can’t cross when a life is on the brink. It’s a matter of principle, and practicality. Besides, a weakened adversary is a known quantity; a dead one creates a vacuum. What assistance, exactly, do you require, Cloakron? Be precise. My patience is not infinite, even for the critically wounded."
