I think Robo Squirrel and Phil Smith should team up in the very next post.

Robo Squirrel is too professional for Vanguard Classic. He should join the European team.

Oh, and I gotta say sorry to anyone who might be offended, but I'm sorta going to be ignoring that whole one poster one character thing for this story. But if you read my last post, you know that already.

My internet connection has been extremely poor for the last four days, now. Even though I have a high speed cable internet connection, it's currently taking 5 minutes or more just to load a single damn page!  Anyway, they'll be over to look at my modem on Tuesday. I don't expect to be able to do much until at least then. Sorry.

But if you read my last post, you know that already.
The way I see it, the "only one character per poster" is imperative for the "mission" stories. I mean, the "rule" exist so that each poster has to learn how to write "in character" not too many character. I mean, it wouldn't be fair if I push in the stories a dozen of heroes, so that all the other posters has to understand all tweve of them (and, I know it was exactly what I did with the Eurostar family in the old Universe).
But outside the "adventure" part of a story, I don't see why to limit ourselves with the numer of character to use. I have Eddie and Rose, Sammitch has Leslie, TTT has Axel and Quantos, Chewy has Charley, CJ has Brandon... our main characters have lives and peoples to care for...

OK, I finally posted something. I think this is the first time I've ever posted anything non-story-related with Mason. Up until now I've restricted my use of the character to his interactions with the team and the actual missions he's been on with the team. Now I'm adding a few more personal details to the character.

It was a dark and stormy night when Wedsnday morning at 1.10 my new son, Luca, has been born.
I hope to be back at the board as soon as possible.
By the way, what the new kid of Euro should be? Male or female? I will stick to the genre coming out of the poll.
I accept also suggestions for the name, but for that I will say the last word.

Congrats, Euro! Way to procreate, man! 
As to Cicciotto's new child, I'm gonna say female as well. I, however, like the name Zita. I think it's very fitting...

Son. I meant son. 
Fiction met reality and made a switcheroo in my mind while I was typing.
Or maybe I was congratulating Euro on his new proposed fictional daughter...? I don't even know anymore.

The mother of my wife had ten brothers and sisters... I am stopping here, I promise.
About Euro's new offspring, I will wait for some other response, if they will come... but I am seriously tempted to make it a female, like both of you suggested.
And while Nausicaa appeal me a lot (being a great fan of Mijazaki's character), I prefer Zita. In fact, I like it a lot.

Having found some minutes to post, I let the switcheroo continues, and let Euro's new kid get born. I am going with female, but the name has not yet been revealed.

There is the problem of her being a meta. With the chaos in Manhattan, I think the meta-hate, in America at this point, should be at the highest level.

Why? She's behind the camera. It's not like she's taking pictures of herself. Hey, if Peter Parker can get away with taking all these great shots from funky angles while using his Spider-Man powers and never get caught doing it, why can't Brianna? It's not like there are people patrolling the island to ensure that she never visits the surrounding environs. She could easily make a career for herself as a Caribbean photographer based on La Perdita.

Which would also get her a lot of money...

It was one of the name I though about. In Italy once was the commonest name for a female, today is one of the rarest, being ALWAYS used in composite form with another one (like Mariagrazia, Mariagiulia, Marianna and such).
But I am not still sure.
After all, Edulcore Cicciotto, as much as could SOUND Italian, is completely fake (loosely translated, would be Sweetener Fatty). There are no such name and surname here. So, I would like to find a fake Italian name also for her.
Zita would perfectly work in that sense.
And about Euro's mom name, I am not sure to have ever given one to her. I'll have to check Soulsearch.

VERY NICE name. I approve Anyhow, on a slightly different note, I just finished a film (a classic style film noir) and I uploaded it to my site. Everyone is more than welcomed to come check it out and let me know what you think http://utopian.flipbrothers.com/movies/45seconds/45secondsqt.htmLooking foward to see what you guys think.
