Turnabout Knighthood [Video, Dated Pre-Iris]

[trenchdoting]

[The video feed clicks on, and a scruffy-looking man appears on the screen. He seems to be wearing his standard green trenchcoat over a Moon Knights uniform, and he has a proud grin stretching across his face.]

Hey there, pals! I did it!! I finally passed that test and made the Moon Knights! [A pause.] ...Oh, and also the name's Dick Gumshoe if you don't know me. I promise to do my best to solve crimes and protect people from danger around here! I- I don't exactly have any powers or anything, but I can be pretty resourceful, and I've got a few secret weapons at my disposal! In fact, I've got a few new ones now! Some kinda lie-detecting tablets, plus a magical... shield barrette... thingy! Pretty neat, huh? ...Anyway, if there's any trouble that needs to be investigated, just let me know. I'm the guy for the job, pal!

Thanks, pal! This isn't my first law enforcing rodeo, so I do feel like my sense of justice is right where it needs to be! You can count on me!!

You would consider us "pals" already? [ He sounds genuinely touched. ] Then I'm very glad to make your acquaintance, Mr. Gumshoe, and pleased to meet someone like you. My name is Keith Goodman, and I leave myself in your excellent care.

Sure, why not? Everyone's a pal in my book, pal! ...Unless they prove themselves not to be! [He chuckles.]

Heh! Nice to meet you, Keith! You sound like... well, you sound like a good man!

Thanks, and thanks again. [ He has a pal. This is great. But he also has a bit of a one-track mind sometimes. ] Have you ever considered working with Heroes and such, or do you prefer to fight crime alone?

Heh! I can understand why you think that. I know I have a pretty hard-boiled look to me. It's easy to mistake me for the lone wolf type, pal! Sometimes, it is good to work alone... but the truth is, I'll work with anyone who isn't bad news to crack a case!

The more the merrier, then! How wonderful! Are there many people here like you, or are you alone in your pursuit of justice?

I sure don't feel like I'm alone! I haven't met anyone who's exactly like me, but there's plenty of good people who can be helpful when it comes to justice! There's even some people here who I worked with back home!

I, too, have had the fortune of meeting some of my colleagues here. Perhaps even we will be able to meet in person sometime, as well.

You have? That's great, pal! This place ain't so bad when you've got some familiar faces around. And hey, I sure I have nothing against meeting in person! Let's make it happen, pal!
