[closed] i was strolling through the park one day
Who: Karl Aurion, Sophie Bai
When: 2/14 afternoon
Where: The park
What: Super strength isn't all it's cracked up to be.
[Some days just make someone need a moment to themselves. Today feels like that sort of a day for Karl. It isn't a bad day or anything, just a long one with so much to do and too little time. Most of what needed to get done had been done by now. Just a trip down to the station in a bit and then home and then sleep left. Before dealing with the station and the unavoidable headache it'll likely induce, a nice stroll through the park felt a great idea. He didn't come down for walks through parks often, but sometimes being outside and surrounded by nature helps more than any aspirin. Karl takes in a deep breath and then exhales. Yes, this is nice. Very nice.
Right up until those kids come out of nowhere and almost run right into him. The collision gets avoided, if narrowly, but the suddenness of this leads to a small amount of inattentiveness. This inattentiveness is the reason Karl fails to notice the large patch of ice in front of him up until he feels the friction beneath his feet magically disappear. His eyes widen as he feels himself about fall and the unlucky guy tries to grab onto the nearest stable object, this particular object being the handrail of a park bench.
It gets grabbed!! Only with one slight miscalculation: forgetting about the super strength, or rather, forgetting to hold back that super strength when grabbing onto the rail. Thanks to this oversight, a loud CRACK rings out through the park and gets quickly followed up by a loud CRASH. Guess who just completely broke off the rail and then fell flat on his face? The genius redhead sprawled out on the ground still clutching that rail, that's who.]
