TRISH TAKANAWA (in studio, measured):
“Good evening. I’m Trish Takanawa, Senior Meta-Human Affairs Correspondent. Tonight, we focus on the psionically driven tanker Psycho-Bunny, who has once again stepped forward in defense of Paragon City. This time, she fought alongside Synapse and his allies in dismantling the Clockwork King’s latest bid for power, as part of the Synapse Task Force.

I spoke with Psycho-Bunny earlier about the challenges she faced in this grueling campaign.”

 

[Cut to interview footage: Psycho-Bunny, seated in a quiet studio corner, her posture steady but her eyes still carrying the weight of battle.]

TRISH TAKANAWA: “Psycho-Bunny, many describe the Synapse Task Force as a trial of endurance, a marathon against relentless Clockwork. How did you hold up against that strain?”

PSYCHO-BUNNY: ‘It was relentless—wave after wave of metal grinding forward. They never tire, but we do. I had to be the wall that didn’t fall. My psionics aren’t about glamour—they’re about resilience. Every strike I absorbed bought my teammates the seconds they needed to dismantle the Clockwork’s core operations.’

TRISH TAKANAWA: “Working alongside Synapse is no small honor. What was it like fighting shoulder-to-shoulder with him?”

PSYCHO-BUNNY: ‘Synapse is a blur. You hear the crackle before you see him move. His speed made it possible for us to stay ahead of the swarm, but speed without an anchor burns out quick. That’s where I came in—I kept the enemy fixed so Synapse and the others could cut them down. Together, it was strategy and strength in perfect balance.’

TRISH TAKANAWA: “The Clockwork King continues to menace Paragon. Did this Task Force change how you view him—or your role against him?”

PSYCHO-BUNNY: ‘He’s not just a man with machines—he’s a mind that won’t stop trying to bend this city into his design. That’s dangerous because he sees people as parts, not lives. My role is to remind him, and any like him, that we’re not parts. We fight back. We endure. And no machine can outlast willpower.’

TRISH TAKANAWA: “Do you feel the Task Force was a turning point for you as a hero?”

PSYCHO-BUNNY: ‘Yes. The Positron Task Force tested teamwork. Synapse’s Task Force tested stamina and spirit. I learned I can fight long past the point I thought I’d break. That knowledge changes you. It steels you. Next time, I’ll be stronger still.’

 

[Cut back to Trish in studio, voice steady, with a note of gravitas.]
“As the Clockwork King rebuilds his forces in the shadows, heroes like Psycho-Bunny prove that courage and resilience can outlast even the most tireless enemy. In addition to my earlier conversation with Psycho-Bunny, I also spoke with Synapse himself, who offered rare words of praise for the young hero.”

 

[Cut to footage: Synapse, arms crossed, the faint crackle of electricity dancing across his form. His tone brisk but respectful.]

SYNAPSE: “The Synapse Task Force isn’t about flash—it’s about endurance. The Clockwork come at you without pause. Most new heroes burn out. Psycho-Bunny didn’t. She anchored the line, soaked the hits, and kept us moving. Without that kind of grit, we wouldn’t have finished the job. She’s the real deal.”

 

[Cut to Trish interviewing Psycho-Bunny, following Synapse’s words.]

TRISH TAKANAWA: “Psycho-Bunny, hearing that kind of recognition from Synapse—what does it mean to you?”

PSYCHO-BUNNY: ‘It means everything. I didn’t step into this life looking for praise, but to earn the respect of someone who’s carried this city on his shoulders? That’s fuel. That’s proof that I’m where I belong, and I’ll keep proving it every time I step onto the field.’

 

[Cut back to Trish in studio, her expression solemn.]
“From relentless waves of Clockwork to the unyielding demands of leadership, Paragon City continues to forge new heroes in fire and steel. With Synapse’s endorsement, Psycho-Bunny stands as one of the most promising defenders of the city’s future.
