Eric was sitting on the edge of the stage, leaning next to the wall, looking at his phone. He decided to come in regular form this time, donning a half mask he bought from a toy shop a few days earlier. He looked like the phantom of the opera, but he figured why not. If he was going to hang out with the team, he's get hungry sooner or later, and you can't really eat in spectral form.

He was also trying to figure out how to keep clothes on while shifting, or at least getting back to clothes when turning back. Not that he was going to practice here, with the others around, but he was in the middle of experimenting when Ditch contacted.

He was watching the news on his phone, ears plugged in and eating chinese takeout. He actually never heard about Lava King, but he sounded like an anime character. Still, his name implies that he is no joke. [color=deepskyblue][i][b]Umbra got him as well... how does the media even know about heroes disappearing? Do they have to like, check in each morning and if they don't they are missing?

But then the other news followed. When he heard the Captain's name he nearly choked on his food, coughing up pasta in large chunks.

[color=deepskyblue][i][b]"Holy *cough* holy crap guys, did you hear about Wall Walker getting captured? Captain Po" [/b][/i][/color] - as he looked up, he could see that the team was hetically forming up around Ditch, who has already arrived. She was soaked to the bone, and had a young boy with her, clearly injured. 

[color=deepskyblue][i][b]"Oh."[/b][/i][/color] Closing his mouth, the slowly swallowed he leftover, and took out his earphones.
