Matt: I'm pleased to welcome Scarlet DashBoy--one of the lesser heroes in the I, Crimsonstreak universe--to the blog today.
Scarlet DashBoy: What do you mean, "lesser?"
Matt: I mean you're not in the book as much as some of the others, obviously.
Scarlet DashBoy: Oh, okay.
Matt: DashBoy, what's your ability?
Scarlet DashBoy: I'm a super-speedster, like Crimsonstreak.
Matt: Do you do anything else? Shoot laser beams from your eyes?
Scarlet DashBoy: No.
Matt: Fly?
Scarlet DashBoy: No.
Matt: Jump high?
Scarlet DashBoy: No.
Matt: Just a super-speedster, then?
Scarlet DashBoy: Yeah. Now wait a second...I'm just like Crimsonstreak. He can't do any of those things.
Matt: His parents can.
Scarlet DashBoy: But how's that--
Matt: Next question, then. What is your fascination with Crimsonstreak? I've asked you two questions and you've mentioned his name twice already.
Scarlet DashBoy: You've asked like seven questions.
Matt: I didn't know you could count that high. Just answer the last one.
Scarlet DashBoy: I've always looked up to Crimsonstreak. Like, he's the best superhero out there. He's funny, he's fast, he wears a red costume. I love red.
Matt: I think he prefers people to refer to his uniform as crimson. You've kind of taken the same approach to fighting crime as Crimsonstreak, then?
Scarlet DashBoy: What do you mean?
Matt: Not to put too fine a point on it, but you basically ripped off everything about him.
Scarlet DashBoy: So I wear red. I run fast. That doesn't mean I'm just like Crimsonstreak.
Matt: There's that name again.
Scarlet DashBoy: You made the comparison.
Matt: You call yourself Scarlet DashBoy. Your power is super-speed. You don't see any similarities?
Scarlet DashBoy: I guess he did kind of rip off my style.
Matt: I see. He says you took his super-suit once and made everyone think you were him. Is that true?
Scarlet DashBoy: Sometimes you have to help those lesser heroes make a name for themselves.
Matt: You didn't answer the question.
Scarlet DashBoy: There was a big crisis. I wanted people to think Crimsonstreak was there to handle it.
Matt: Are you sure you didn't want to save the day and have everyone give you the credit?
Scarlet DashBoy: I don't think I like you.
Matt: I don't think anyone likes you.
Scarlet DashBoy: That's not very nice.
Matt: Neither is stealing another hero's identity. (sighs) Are you going to be in the next book?
Scarlet DashBoy: Will there be a next book?
Matt: I don't know.
Scarlet DashBoy: You're not much help.
Matt: You wanna do the plug?
Scarlet DashBoy: Sure. I, Scarlet DashBoy is available at a variety of fine retailers...
Matt: The book is called I, Crimsonstreak.
