Livewire has posed:
For once, Livewire arrives in a very traditional manner to interviewing Johnny Storm -- The Human Torch -- of Fantastic Four fame. Actually ringing bells and knocking on doors, with a small two men crew to provide camera work and sound.

Human Torch has posed:
Johnny Storm is chillin' on his rooftop. Serioiusly, its the middle of December but he has on a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. One may notice the roof top heaters placed around the roof and that the floor is also heated...and so is the pool. ANYWAY, as the elevator opens JStorm almost runs over with a few drinks in his hands..expertly carrying them all.

"Mai Tai anyone?" but he doesn't wait for an answer he just starts showing them into hands.

"You can set up anywhere you like buut," he points to his right cheek, "This is my good side," he smiles and steps aside.

As an after thought he says, OH, and how are you today?"

Livewire has posed:
Leslie is wearing jeans and a long sleeved black top featuring a lightning bolt, she looks a bit eerie if Johnny had never heard of her before, chalky white skin, and wild electric blue hair, she waves as she comes out on the roof after being ushered there, "Mr. Storm, thanks for giving us this interview," she does take a Mai Tai, and instructs her crew before looking up at Johnny with a grin, "hey, we know you don't care, but nice of you to keep up appearances, eh? We're on in 3, 2, 1..." she gestures with her fingers, before holding up the mic.

"Good day ladies and gents, today in Live On The Wire, we've got an exclusive interview with one of the hottest hero to ever heat up, Johnny Storm AKA The Human Torch!" Leslie motions with her hands at Johnny Storm, who is certainly filmed from his good side, "so Johnny, first question...how awesome is it to have a roof top pool? I never seen one before!"

Human Torch has posed:
Johnny Storm smiles, "Call me JStorm," is the first thing he says and offering with one hand towards the pool, "You are welcome to try anytime you like."

"And thanks for the interview Leslie. I love getting all things Fantastic Four out there," he smiles very large.

Livewire has posed:
"JStorm...? Any reason you like being called that?" Leslie asks sincerely, before holding up her hand in a 'stop' gesture, "I'll pass, handling a mic here, you wouldn't want to kill me, would you?" Leslie asks with a grin, "you're a hero, right? Saving lives, not ending them?" She motions at her mic, electricity and water, kind of an explosive mix. She puts her hand over her heart and looks shyly at the camera, "oh, JStorm, stop, please...you'll make me blush, and with my skin tone it looks horrid."

Human Torch has posed:
Johnny Storm pauses slightly and eyeshifts, "It's just because I am J Storm," he shrugs. "I guess it can go all the way back to high school, it just stuck."

"Blushing is a good thing, it's healthy," he winks but then back to business. "And Yes, we are into saving lives. Universally, locally, galatically, we do it all. If you need us just call," he points at the camera. "That rhymed."

Livewire has posed:
"Your rhymes are great, you could totally work that into a jingle. So it's true what they say...? That you're a ladies man?" Leslie asks, coming closer and going as far as to nudge Johnny with her elbow, "if you've tuned in to our last episode, you might have seen this man," *picture of Mon-El shown* "he was claiming that he loves to beat up women, what do you have to say to 'heroes'," she goes as far as to do finger quotes on camera, "who think that's a cool thing?"

Human Torch has posed:
Johnny Storm responds, "A ladies man? I wouldn't call myself that. You would have to tell me," another smile. Then looking into the camera he says, "I don't know that guy," then he wags his finger at the camera. "It's not cool to beat up ladies man, you shouldn't do it."

Livewire has posed:
"There you have it, JStorm, a man of class! Who knows what's what!" Leslie nods sagely, before turning once again to look at Johnny, "how is it like being part of team, while also being the hottest guy on the team by far? Does that make the rest of the Fantastic Four jealous of you? How do you handle such jealousy?"

Human Torch has posed:
Johnny Storm smiles, "OH yeah...Ben..The Thing is soooo...jealous. And my sister's husband the dumbest smart guy that I know....hates on me sometimes. My sis, of course not, nothing but love. But you know, it's my job to be the face of the team you know. It's tough work but you know, I am up to it. Someon's got to do it and obviously Ben can't," then he whispers. "He get a little mad about that sometimes."

Livewire has posed:
"Oh my...poor Ben, we all know that The Thing could never compare with the hotness of JStorm, right?" Leslie grins wildly, clearly enjoying this interview, or Johnny, up to the viewer to decide. "Hate on you!? For shame! I thought Reed Richards was supposed to be the smartest guy in the world, what's so smart about hating the hottest guy on the team? I mean, what would the Fantastic Four be like, if you decided to leave? Huh? They should really show you better respect and appreciation!" She then turns to face the camera entirely, "we agree don't we folks? Show some love to the Human Torch for having to deal with all that BS, while being the hottest hero on the Fantastic Four!" She claps a bit, and turns to look at Johnny again, batting her eyes before asking, "now to the question all the girls want to know, are you single?"

Human Torch has posed:
Johnny Storm chuckles, "Yeah, you know, I actually have thicker skin than the thing," he winks at the camera. "And remember, the dumbest smartest guy ever," he shrugs. "Single? Now you are gonna make me blush, are you trying to?" but after a smirk he says, "Yeah, you know. I wouldn't call myself taken....but not really single. She wouldn't like it so much if I happen to 'meet' another girl."

Livewire has posed:
Leslie giggles as Johnny reminds her that Reed is the -dumbest- smartest guy ever, before answering, "You said blushing is a good thing, a healthy thing! I'm just showing my care for your health!" Leslie winks playfully as she keeps the mic pointed at Johnny, "well...?" A frowny face follows up as she turns once more to the camera, "sorry, ladies, turns out JStorm is actually taken...well, not quite taken, but the girl he's seeing will down right murder you! So look but don't touch!" She feigns an attempt at touching Johnny, before pulling her hand away, "don't worry! Your lady friend can count on me!" Then all of a sudden comes a serious, "President Underwood was assassinated, the Avengers, Fantastic Four, Justice League, and basically all the heroes...everyone failed! Are we seeing the decline of heroes? Or was it just that your lady friend kept you away from saving the President?"

Human Torch has posed:
Johnny Storm frowns as well, "Oh, now it's time for the tough questions? OK. Well, the president dying was unfortunate and," he pauses and does an Obama thumb motion, "Sometimes the bad guys win," he nods grimly. "We rely on the civilian population to also be vigilant I am not certain if any of us we tasked with his personal safety," he shakes his head. "But the era of the hero is dead, if anything it shows that we all must be better."

Livewire has posed:
Leslie looks outright shocked at Johnny's answer, nodding at what he says, "very serious words, JStorm, thank you so much for the interview. It's been most informative!" She then turns to face the camera, "as you can see, ladies and gents, you have it here from JStorm himself! The era of the hero is dead! No more heroes anymore! Look after yourselves or run to the hills! Or get yourself a juicy hero bf! This is Leslie, signing off!" with that dramtic announcement, the show ends.

Livewire has posed:
With her last remarks, Lesley's crew disperses, as she turns to Johnny once again, "I really do thank you so much!"

Human Torch has posed:
Johnny Storm nods, "My pleasure, please come back," he turns and walks to the rooftop bar, "Another Mai Tai?"

Livewire has posed:
"No thanks," Leslie declines the Mai Tai, but does quip, "yo JStorm, just wanted to say, you really are the hottest guy on the Fantastic Four, appreciate the interview!" She blows him a kiss, and then turns to leave.
