so new people showing
hi everyone! I'm Kate, or Hawkeye
there's a lot of younger people in the mix as well
before the adults get involved and start poo pooing the idea of *kids* saving the world
I'm sure mine isn't the only one that's been saved by the younger gen a time or two

anyway
I've found a building here that is basically mine from home
my home
it's marked as Bishop Publishing

any teens or 20 somethings need a place to hangout
it's open
there's several games, an archery range, gym, and a lot of other things that can be used to either train or just relax

[address of building here]

feel free to join us
it's all good

I think we should stop debating things we don’t have firsthand experience with.

We’re kidnapping victims. I’ve been saying that from the start, but it doesn’t do any good.

[equivo]

Consider him preemptively devastated.

Quick question, though: how concerned do I have to be about going through a wall after we kick his ass? I'll still do it if the answer is 'very'. I just want to be prepared.

[seenitall]

mood tbh

[mostdangerousbird]

I want to try to beat the game that’s not actually a game. For science.

We probably could. Have you seen any computer stores? I’m pretty good with home networks.

[upbyone]

there was a limit to how close the ai could make it
interesting to know

[notthatstraight]

I only did it once
but my bow is a 30#

[revengeisalie]

Super... hero? So a hero, but... more?

That... sounds really nice.

[ Rin doesn't know why that needs the special name, but different places, different customs.

She supposes if she were to explain samurai to someone who never heard of them, it would sound absurd too. ]

[fourthwalled]

Bold of you to assume what I have experience with.
But sure.

I'll go back to being the comic relief. Things are easier that way.

[mostdangerousbird]

I think the news coverage of superheroes is enough to influence anyone, but it’s not the same as aggressive influencing.

[westcoasts]

it was a while ago.

( as in, "it was a while ago" so that's probably why as opposed to clint's habitual aversion of talking about precisely anything on a deep level unless he absolutely has to. )

i know you know the ya weren't the first time kids decided to run around with a few powers and weapons and see if they could make a difference.
( like, god, clint was maybe twenty. )
t-bolts weren't really any different, but with the added bonus of coming off the back of a stint as villains.
moonstone was a little older, and atlas, but there was a couple of kids.
actually had to convince them to stay in school.
( clint "stay in school, kids!!" barton. )
didn't help all of them, but it helped for a while.

( or — he gets it. )

bit of a jump from the wca, katie-kate.

[equivo]

The only way to do that would be rigging the deck. Which I don't have any ethical objections to, but you are aware is cheating, right?

I haven't so far. One of several conspicuously missing amenities. Not that I'm complaining about the free portable platforms we've got, but it'd be nice to have a desktop.

[notthatstraight]

Robin
despite everything
he is useful

[notthatstraight]

or a portal back home?

[thetombkeeper]

Yeah. I could definitely use it, that's for sure.

[You know, just dealing with having his soul ripped apart and being beaten in a card game by the guy who he plotted revenge against for years. No big deal.]

My name's Marik, by the way. It's nice to meet you, Kate.

[brat]

Useful for target practice.

[notthatstraight]

yes
I had a nice supply then
don't mind not having it now as I don't have to deal with the hangups that came with it

[notthatstraight]

I think they may have found things from our memories
but then things overlap with other things?
in any case, yeah not 100% the same

[notthatstraight]

I had Gwenpoole and Kid Omega on the wca
I think I can deal with anything after that
but I don't plan on doing things 100% on my own
need to see what we have first then divide up things

[mostdangerousbird]

I’d ask you to share with the class, but I’m not trying to make things harder for anyone.

[notthatstraight]

it's a cover term really
some heroes have powers
some don't

[levelshift]

You know a lot of people around here.

[Which is kind of notable! Even though he's far from sociable he hasn't seen anyone he recognizes around.]

Yeah.

They like to stick their heads in when kids are mentioned, but fuck if they'll actually do anything if they don't need to or don't get anything out of it. That kind of behaviour is more common than it should be.

[westcoasts]

one of them just threatened to shoot me over a conversation.
that didn't happen with gwen OR quentin.

[notthatstraight]

Billy is cool
no pushing people through walls
he might teleport you out of the building or something if you really piss him off
but not over a video game

[notthatstraight]

he's a little intense

[mostdangerousbird]

That’s impressive. I think. I have a friend who’s into archery, but I don’t think I paid as much attention as I should to the finer points.
