With the smell of a freshly brewed pot of coffee filling the air Devon sat down in front of his computer. He turned the computer on and idly looked out of the window next to him as he waited for the system to boot up. The few rays of sunlight that managed to reach through the cloud layer unobstructed made the tiny droplets stuck on the glass look like the star lit sky, but it didn't last for much more than a few seconds as the clouds moved blocking those few rays of sunlight from reaching his window. With the mesmerizing view on his window gone he took a sip of his coffee and looked back to his computer screen.

First thing that needed to be done was some grocery shopping, else he'd have to tap into his stocks of canned food soon, not an appetizing prospect given the sheer mediocrity of canned food in general. September always ensured a bounty of freshly harvested fruits and vegetables, the only real question was which ones and in what kind of dish. A question easily solved by reading some recipes from various cooking sites and forums. Something Devon always felt was the true blessing of online grocery shopping, sure it was easier, but being able to just look up recipes and order the ingredients at the same time turned grocery shopping from an annoying chore into something somewhat fun.

After a bit of shopping he turned his attention to parahumansonline, with what happened last night he just wanted to make sure nothing particularly informative had found it's way onto the forums. No need for villains to have more information about him than was needed to strike fear into them. But it seemed that his worries had been for nothing, the footage posted showed nothing more than him firing his gun, nothing that hadn't been recorder previously. And as far as discussion nothing new had sprung up, the latest posts about him were discussions about the styling of his attire, apparently some found him to look too villainous. "I'll just take that as a compliment." He thought as he scrolled further.

There was one other thing nagging him about last night when he reported about the vigilante using electrical powers they seemed to think it might be linked to some convenience store robberies. They didn't exactly have a lot of information, but apparently some electricity wielding villain was involved in three convenience store robberies. The girl had seemed to insignificant to him that he hadn't paid much attention to her, not that the mask of magnetized material left much to be identifiable. Perhaps the site could be useful for once, maybe there was some footage or some other information to jog his memory. Devon didn't feel like going after some villain that just screamed villain out of necessity, but it also didn't sit right with him to just do nothing when he could help. Unfortunately after a bit of searching and exhausting his entire vocabulaire for lightning related words he hadn't found anything new, just the exact information he'd gotten from his superiors.

Devon tried to put his mind off of it with some good old HoI3, but in the end it kept bothering him that he couldn't get anything definitive. But as it stood he had no information to go on and lightning related powers weren't exactly one of a kind nor easy to notice the fine details in the powers. Deciding that taking a walk around town was probably the best way to get it out of his mind he changed clothes and made his way to the rooftop. Donning his costume he climbed down the fire escape and merged with the pedestrians, or at least as best he could while wearing combat gear. Perhaps there would be a villain to draw his attention to.
