Awards Extravaganza!

[the-ambush-bug.livejournal.com]

A camera pans over a vast audience of super-heroes and super-villains from all walks of live, orchestral fanfare playing all the while, before the camera and the stage lights come to focus on the main forum, and its red velvety curtains.

An announcer's voice booms: "Live, from Bob Kane Memorial Stadium - designed, drawn, and funded by Bill Finger - it's the Second and a Half Annual Ambush Bug Presents Awards Extravaganza!"

The curtains part, giving way to the night's emcee - Ambush Bug, dressed to the nines in a sharp tuxedo. A sharp, orange tuxedo.

"Good evening ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the Ambush Bug Awards - the Schwabbies, as they are popularly known. This is our second and a half annual ceremony, and I hope we can continue the fine tradition of dignity and aplomb that we have maintained all these years. But - what's this?"

Ambush Bug looks towards the rafters, where there is suddenly a glow.

He shakes with silent laughter as Booster fumes. Beetle recovers in short order though, getting back to business.

"And lastly, one of our presenters for Best Hat - the funniest Legionnaire by far, Tenzil Kem - AKA Matter-Eater Lad!"

Beetle takes up the envelope, sliding it open and reading the card within.

"Ladies and gentlemen, our winner - the Silent Knight!"

The Knight makes his way out on the stage, claiming his trophy with a grateful nod .. and pauses silently at the microphone.

Finally, he resolves to flash a thumbs-up at the audience, then makes his way offstage.
