TEXT- #THE WATCH

[superball]

[The following text message comes from a really recent account. Looks like whoever posted this really couldn't resist making their AMAZING PRESENCE known.]

Good day, fellow heroes!

It is with great pleasure that I, the Mysticalman, shall now be watching over this beautiful city of Los Angeles along with the rest of you! Though we may all come from different backgrounds, it warms my heart to the core to see so many upstanding superheroes bravely unite against the wretched forces of EVIL!!! I must say, I am looking forward to meeting all of you in person!

I also happen to have a request- should any of you come across a magical creature, I would be delighted if you could let me know right away! Even the slightest hint, the barest shadow of a clue would be immense help. While I am more than skilled at finding them on my own, I must admit this place is still quite new to me and I would certainly appreciate your assistance! Thank you!

I do! I'm quite fond of all sorts of creatures, mind you, but unicorns are objectively the best. This is why I have dedicated my life to befriending one!!

[purrsuit]

have you ever seen one??

[superball]

As a matter of fact- I have!!! I daresay, only an expert like me could ever hope to lay their eyes on such a magnificent creature!!!

[purrsuit]

did you get a picture?

[superball]

Of course! I diligently keep records of my encounters with those wondrous beasts!

Behold the glory of the unicorn!!!

[The picture he links here couldn't be called bad. Calling it bad would be an insult to bad things: it's dark, it's blurry, the photographer clearly had his thumb in front of the objective when he took it, and the only thing of notice is a distant white blur that could maybe be a horse's rump if you squint hard enough.
It has transcended bad.]

[purrsuit]

are you sure thats not a marshmallow??

or maybe a big bunny??

[superball]

Absolutely not!! Look, you can clearly see the tail here!

[Same picture as above, but with a wonky mspaint red circle around part of the white blotch.
It's almost like abstract art, in a way.]

[purrsuit]

ummm

not really??

[superball]

I really can't make it any more obvious! Do you have eye problems, perhaps?

[purrsuit]

um... i can see in the dark

[superball]

Could it be you're unable to see the colour red, then?

[purrsuit]

ummmmmm

nope im purrty sure i can see red!!

[superball]

Well, I'm stumped! Though I suppose it's true a mere picture can never quite capture the magnificence of such a wondrous beast. Ah, but if you were to see one in real life...!

You know, you seem like a decent person. Should our paths cross after I have finally befriended a unicorn, I will be sure to let you take a good look at it!
