Ray is one of my favourite characters in Rocketman. That man has so much sass.

“Your very expensive painting is upside now” *snaps fingers in a z formation, flips hair and saunters out*

That was the energy he was providing. I love his little sassy ass. He ate that shit up and left no crumbs like the legend he is!

screw writing im talking about the City Heroes

So there's 2: Agent Owl & Mockingjay.

Agent Owl is the City's Main Hero, he's been in the hero biz for a while & is pretty familiar with all the villains, how they work, etc. He knows what he's doing, basically. His Secret Identity is Bryce Williams, a billionaire who lost his parents at a young age. He's a very popular public figure/celebrity.

Mockingjay is Agent Owl's sidekick. She's sort of new to the whole Hero Show, I actually kinda wanna consider her a foil to Alice. They're not direct parallels, but both are the "New Kid On The Block" in their respective circles, and also seen as babies trying to play with big kids. Anyway. She's a little too quick to get the job done, not yet having the patience for long villain monologues like Owl/Bryce. Her Secret Identity is Madeline Williams, Bryce's daughter.

But WAIT! There's more!! That's right, this Superhero Family comes with DRAMA!!!

Bryce used to be married to Selina Von Katt/Kitty, a former villain (in her later years she was more of an anti-hero/borderline hero, though). They had another daughter, Juliet Williams, who became a villain...I guess out of spite?? Juliet became Jeweled Moon (or Moonstone, either work) & started to rob jewelry stores & also stole anything moon-related, similar to Selina who stole primarily cat-themed items.

Anyway. There was a huge falling out over it, with Bryce saying Juliet couldn't be a villain & Selina disagreeing, saying Juliet needs to figure it out herself/choose her own path (note: she wasn't okay with what her daughter was doing, but having been there herself Selina couldn't help but sympathize). Madeline & Juliet ended up having their own argument over it, which caused Juliet to run away/cut off her family & Madeline join her father in the hero business. As for Selina? Well, I'm not really sure. She separated from Bryce - not divorced, but, uh.....nobody knows where she is. She just...disappeared. It's unknown where she is, or if she's even alive. I think maybe Oswald Caldwell knows, maybe even helped her go into hiding.

wow that's a lot of context for 4 people who barely show up & only kick my paras' asses sometimes. damn.

[EDIT: holy shit oops I forgot Bryce has a brother (Ray) that Alice was forced to date/be engaged to lmao. He got hypnotized & basically caused Alice's villain career. sorta. I'll get to that later ig]

Sir Terence Orby Conran (4 October 1931 – 12 September 2020)

Sir Terence, who founded both furniture retailer Habitat and the Design Museum, promoted British design, culture and the arts around the world through his wide-ranging body of work.

In Britain, he helped break down class boundaries by making quality designs more widely available across the population.

Sir Terence studied textile design at London’s Central School of Art before beginning his career making and selling furniture, including innovative flat-pack creations.

He went on to open restaurants across London before launching the first Habitat furniture store in 1964 on Fulham Road in Chelsea, which was at the heart of the “Swinging Sixties” phenomenon in the British capital.

Its staff were attired in uniforms by Mary Quant and had their hair styled by Vidal Sassoon. Many more furniture and lifestyle stores would follow in the years to come.

Sir Terence, who was knighted in 1983, personally influenced other household-name brands like Heal’s and Mothercare. He also set up the Conran Roche architecture practice in 1980.
