Fic Info
Summary
Superheroes, in daily life, usually remained hidden. Men and women, bestowed with god-like powers, living among those whose only powers remained in their knowledge and talents. One of these heroes was Mayura, a peacock-themed superheroine with the power to create new life. As more laborers were going on strike, Mayura’s efforts to keep the economy from deflating were more crucial than ever. Because of her, livelihoods were kept intact for the destitute. For the corporate overlords, however, she was the bane of their luxurious existence. But what does this mean to Gabriel Agreste?

Reception
YYYYYYYYYYYES! THIS, WE LOVE THIS! Goodness, I love The Incredibles to death. Gabriel and Mayura’s dynamic is iconic 😌💅. How you fit them into this universe was wonderful to read. They're so cute when they're snarky. The ending was lovely <3.[Radom Fangirling] Gabriel nearly spit out his coffee as he sat outside at a cafe, watching the bird woman that stole his heart running in heels , of all things. They weren’t modest heels, either, they were at least three inches tall. Gabriel made a mental note to sketch such heels later for his next line.
Exactly! It's attractive for no reason. Ok Ms. Balance, ok Ms. Iron Ankles, ok Ms. Graceful, ok Ms. IMPRESSIVE SKILL OF A MODEL!
The night was magical. Mayura drew quite a bit of attention, and she was asked several dozen questions as to her identity and her plans for the future as a superhero. All were dismissed with a laugh or a wave of her hand; not even Gabriel was going to learn her identity anytime soon.
Boom, boom, boom. As they should, serving the world a whole damn MEAL! I'm so proud of them. Doing it like no one else could. (Gabriel I would kill for your spot as Mayura’s date but that's beside the point.)Starry_Sky12, Dec 6, 2020 [2]
I loved this entire thing from start to finish!!! I felt like I was reading a really cool superhero comic, this whole story was crafted so wonderfully and I loved how everything played so smoothly!! 😊😊 Not to mention that the art is beautiful, this team is AWESOME and the fruits of your work are so fabulous!! 😊😊novatheastropirate, Dec 6, 2020 [3]
Wow, the worker protests is definitely not the theme I expected to see on this challenge. X)Enjoyed all those short digests, their implementation is quite neat. And Gabriel's first interaction with Mayura is perfect. While meeting the famous hero for the first time, he definitely would try to critique her clothes, wouldn't he? Heh, fashion aspect of Gabriel's character represented well here.
Thank you for your work!MulliganFlowers, Dec 9, 2020 [4]
That was so sweet!! I loved the setting and how well you wove it into the plot. I can't believe I've never imagined them in an AU like this before lol. Wonderful work!DragonGirl180, Dec 10, 2020 [5]
