By the way of Regret. A lot of regretting has to be done anyway, might as well dry two birds with one stoner. It’s what the pineapple is for in the first place.
pretty sure Lucas just had a risky idea to try to confirm if Ethan still has his powers or not.
But is it linked to something a cop could help with ? The word crushing ?
Mmmh..
Just needs medically-induced death. Ethan’s powers always kicked in rather quickly, and being clinically dead for 30 seconds or so before being resuscitated never hurt anyone.
you know that might work. its still alittle risky but proper conditions would be a best case scenario. just need to file some paperwork and suddenly might have rather easy access to something like that.
Look through Troll’s mom’s basement to determine how he made it, fallow the paperwork if he got it from someone else, probably confirm that the whole thing was bunk.

Ben gets Live target practice. Ethan gets powers confirmation and +dodging.

Methinks Lucas is thinking of seeing if Ben would be willing to pull some strings to get that “antidote” analyzed in forensics. And although it’d be risky, maybe have them take a look at biological samples of Ethan as well.
Has Lucas thought about procuring adenosine through Ben? It is used to chemically restart heart, so technically Ethan would be dead… For about 10 seconds.
The problem is that it might not work. My feeling is that ‘game logic’ is applied to his deaths. We see him sometimes respawn way before any death can have set in. Sometimes he seems to suffer for a long time. It is irregular. That is because game logic isn’t consistent. In some games you’re dead the moment an arm falls off. In others you can bind the wound and continue. I feel it is to do with how he’s hit and the game feeling it has. That means that if you use game narrative, you could wound Ethan much… Read more »
Well, not “lost nothing”, he cannot be the superhero the way he used to be.
But in terms of regular life, you are mostly right. (mostly, as he sometimes used it there too, like when he broke an arm and didn’t want to deal with it)

Ethan dies in some horrific ill-advised batman stunt recreation and simply poofs back into existence like nothing happened. The thing that makes me wonder about Ethan’s power of respawn is, how far does it go? When you die in an actual video game, you don’t ever actually restart with absolutely nothing when you go back to your last spawn point. You the player retains the knowledge of how it happened and can plan for it next time around. It is clear Ethan remembers what leads to his demise when he re-spawns; he has explained before that even though he knows he… Read more »

One of those words must have triggered Lucas’s brain. It’s likely either News (something Lilah the reporter can do), or Impress (maybe using an arrows to trigger cardiac arrest but also weird arrow based CPR?)

For years I believed I’m the only one thinking about this…
Were you thinking blueberry or magnesium fire? It’s usually the neon pink one for me.
But how will we keep the asparagus dry?
By the way of Regret. A lot of regretting has to be done anyway, might as well dry two birds with one stoner. It’s what the pineapple is for in the first place.
I’ve always found it more effective to use a grapefruit. Instead of the eels of course.
But what about the penguins?
The answer is clearly leather chaps.
Are you pondering what I’m pondering?

So, essentially do a Flat-Liners like scenario? Yeah, I can see it working…
Ethan is enrolling in cop school.
The idea being that Ethan is going to look snazzy in a unifrom. Lucas is right, it IS crazy… but worth considering, nonetheless.
With Ethan, I think it’s more like Police Academy than cop school though.
With Lucas it’s Blue Oyster Club. (Have fun)
Oh! Oh! Can Ben be used to reach the guy who made the “antidote” and find out what it really was?

Wasn’t that something Scott tried to do? just not wth a polce forensic?
An idea concerning an electric eel and a pineapple? Now I’m kind of intrigued…
Reminds me of the old Chef Brian comics.
EXACTLY MY THOUGHTS! Damn I miss Chef Brian.
Has Lucas thought about procuring adenosine through Ben? It is used to chemically restart heart, so technically Ethan would be dead… For about 10 seconds.
And then…respawn, while his previous body comes back to life?
TWO Ethans?!

Speaking of Adenosine, it reminded me of this:
