The White House scramble to host a Trump Easter bash

Quote:That might sound fine for "a smaller, low-key event," says Melinda Bates, who as a former director of the White House Visitors Center planned eight White House Easter Egg Rolls during Bill Clinton's administration. But "smaller" and "low-key?" Not exactly attributes generally associated with the Trump brand.

More likely, Bates says, is that the inexperienced team at the White House may not have fully appreciated how much the Easter Egg Roll serves as a display of its organizational prowess.

I put my mom's house on the market on Monday.

I just got a call from our realtor, who says we have two offers already -- and they're both very good.

If anyone here wants a house in Ocean County, NJ, now's probably your last chance to get an offer in.

Just what it says on the tin. The ads are popping up again, or at least the spaces for the ads, since I have AdBlocker running.

...as in, "and Roll".
So I've been interested in writing a crossover between Worm, the superhero Web serial, and Drunkards walk.  I've got a basic plot outline- Doug arrives in Brockton Bay and sets himself up as an independent superhero in between trying to find what song moves him to the next world.  It is then he meets Taylor Herbert, an insect controlling metahuman and would-be superhero.  Now, Taylor Herbert all but screams "troubled kid trying to escape her problems by superheroing", at least when she's not being terrifying, and she's got no interest in joining the local kid superhero team, which is also worrying.  So Doug decides to act as her mentor- at least for a while, and hopefully keep her from falling in with one of the gangs.

However, I'm still trying to wrap my head around Doug's character somewhat, so I was hoping I could ask you some questions, Bob.  
One, what is Doug's "Superhero Persona" like?  We see a little of it in DWII, but we haven't actually seen a whole lot of Doug as "Loony Toons"; mostly, he's just Doug.  Given I'm planning to have Doug actually do the superhero thing quite a bit, I'd like a few tips for writing him as "Loony Toons".
Two, any tips for writing Doug in general?  I'm re-reading some of your work, but I'd like a few characterization tips on your view of who he is, so I can keep him in character and build a good model of him in my head.
Three, can you give me a sketch of Emi's personality?  I'm leaning towards including her,  but there's  not quite enough about her written to get a good grasp on her personality and character.
Four, the plot summary I gave.  I think this is fairly in character for Doug to act as a mentor for an aspiring superhero, but I wanted to make sure with you first.

P.S: I noticed you tend to title the various steps in the vein of the crossed-into work, when a title convention exists.  So I'm playing off Worm's one-word titles with a musical reference with a double meaning.  Like it?

Nothing is different from yesterday, except everything is awful. Why?
