MHA #2 | Wednesday Morning

The weekend had been weird, but the kind of weird where the good outweighed the bad, so Diego couldn't really complain. The Five thing had been weird. Same with the lack of powers and tattoos. But, he was happily married, and apparently had some awesome kids that could throw a rager. So, really no reason to mope.

Just a lot of not asking questions was happening over here. Instead he was just...very, very focused on the Food Network the last couple days. Maybe one day he'd actually cook something he learned on TV.

"I dunno -- he calls 'Stormfront' a Nazi bitch in this propaganda piece we're seeing Friday and it's pretty convincing," Annie replied with a smile. "Maybe that'll do the trick."

Annie's popularity was absolutely attributable to one part Annie's actual charm and two parts not being or dating a Nazi.

Annie actually did think Homelander was a pretty good actor, inasmuch as she'd seen how terrifying he really was but millions of people still bought into the smiley Protector of America shit.

But more importantly: "Not really, but I do think Vought's that desperate."

And she was right. She just was wrong about what that desperation was going to dictate Vought do next.
