New City of Heroes Character

I took some time off studying this evening and goofed around on City of Heroes. I created The Eternal Flyer. Essentially, she's the ghost of Amelia Earhardt. This character will be getting some wings when the new City of Heroes issue comes out.

Anyway, [livejournal.com profile] newbabel joined me for some missions and he really dug my character costume. During one mission, he asked me to take a look at myself because I was looking rather ghostly in the lighting of the cave. When I changed my camera angle, I was greeted with this view:



Of course, instead of seeing my ghostly visage, I was greeted with an eyeful of ".Fallout", [livejournal.com profile] newbabel's character, in addition to a slight parody of the James Bond movie intro shot of Bond between the legs of some sexy woman. Well, at least I found it amusing. Given Ex-Amelia's facial expression, she did, too.

Here's another shot of us, checking out the criminals before we "sent them off to prison".

Wow...how long does it take ex-Amelia to lace up those boots each day? ;) I think her legs are even longer than mine...haha...

I have to agree, those are some long legs! Not that I mind of course. ;) It just looks a bit off. Is it a result of camera angle or something?

it's probably a result of the fact that my monitor is widescreen and I think some distortion occurred between when I cropped it and uploaded it.

Amelia last laced those boots before she died. So it hasn't been an issue for decades. ;-)

I was thinking the same thing. does Doc Martin sell a shoelace for that?

She's a superhero! Laces do not daunt her!
