omg 17 and 90 for each of the heroes pls
17. What are they like when they’re drunk?
Steel is an angry/no-holds-barred drunk, which is why she doesn’t like getting drunk. I don’t mean that in a ‘starts fights’ kind of way but in a ‘remember that one politician that was rude to Trix? I’m going to fucking ruin their reputation and call them out right here right now-’
Echo gets giggly and flirty and loud- which can be an issue since alcohol also makes powers harder to control. He’s blown out a few eardrums laughing too hard at drunk escapades.
Trix just...amps up their Trix-y-ness and becomes a bit of a daredevil. ‘I couldn’t jump this when I was sober but maybe when I’m drunk-’/’Fuck you enemy-of-the-week I can take you on myself-’.
Phoenix gets even gigglier than Echo and extremely flirty with Megawatt- lots of cuddles for the electricity manipulator that’s for sure.
Griffin becomes tired and grouchy, nursing his drink with a frown on his face. He glares at anyone that goes past and, if anyone dares to talk to him, he seems to just give off this field of ‘fuck you and everything you stand for’.
Control becomes to goddamn full of ‘fight-me’ that she probably knocks herself out on a door or something chasing after someone else.
Cerebella hates being drunk because she gets intrusive- popping into random conversations and spilling secrets like no-bodies business- ‘hey so-and-so, why’re you whisperin’ about how hot x looks when they’re right there just say it to their face-’
Megawatt gets so goddamn blushy, but it takes such a long time to get her drunk it rarely has much of an effect. When Phoenix is involved though it’s a giant cuddle pile and a very flustered Megawatt.
90. Do they consider themselves attractive?
Steel considers herself attractive on the grounds that she knows intimidation and a vague sense of untouchable-ness is sometimes very alluring.
Echo doesn’t consider himself attractive because of his cocktail of self-esteem issues lets be real here.
Trix likes to pretend they do, but they always focus too much on their injuries to think they’re actually, properly attractive. Having said that, they know that many shallow people would love their lithe body and gymnastic ability.
Phoenix doesn’t really care about her attractiveness- it was enough to get Megawatt interested, and that’s all that matters to her right now.
Griffin is similar to Steel in that he knows to some people he’s attractive, but not to others. Like Phoenix though, he doesn’t care if he is or not since he’s not interested in relationships either way.
Control doesn’t for similar reasons to Echo- too many bad intrusive thoughts. Having said that, she knows she inherited her Paternal Grandma’s bone structure and overall look, and she also knows her Grandma is still looking good to this day.
Cerebella does because her natural empathic field registers when people catch sight of her, and too many of them have found her attractive for her not to be- if that makes sense?
Megawatt is probably the most narcissistic of the Main8, but that’s only because of a throwback to her wrestling days when she knew her body was in peak physical condition and therefore the most beautiful to others. Now, she knows she’s attractive to others but especially to Phoenix.
