I know I've told some of you about this already, and maybe other people heard about it from Wanda, but I'm just gonna make this official without sending out engraved invitations. We're gonna have a dinner on April 15th at the Riverview Community Center; I rented a room there so that we'd all have a place to fit. I figure that if we're all gonna end up working together at some point or another, then we'd better get to know each other first - and, let's be real, we all have questions about these parallel universes.

Before you ask, yes, you can bring a guest, just give me a heads up so I know how many people to prepare for. And it's a potluck, so make sure to bring something - buy a dish or make it, whatever you feel most comfortable with. I can't feed all you people and a couple of super-soldiers on what the Perimeter Guard pays, okay?

[Sam grins at the camera. He can't resist the urge to poke a little fun at Steve(s).]

If there's anything I haven't thought of or if you have any special dietary restrictions that aren't eldritch horrors, just let me know.


[ooc: even if Sam hasn't spoken to/met your characters personally, just assume that he's heard about them through the grapevine, because we all know these dang Marvels are a bunch of gossips. also castmates accepted in this app round are more than welcome as well! although the IC date for the dinner is april 15, I'll be posting it this week and forward-dating it.]

Who's this guy? I've never met him before. Is he new?

[ sliDING IN NOSILY HERE, hi. ]

[toolatetochangethename]

Who? Sam? He's cool. I mean. Considering.

[NOT that Scott is an ultimate arbiter of cool.]

[ikols]

Considering what? Also, funny.

[wingedman]

...yeah, considering what, Tic-tac?

[s i g h. he guesses he asked for this when organizing something to introduce everyone to each other. maybe he should supply nametags and tell people to put their superhero names on them.]

This is Scott, he does the whole ant thing.

[because he knows there's an Ant-Man in their world, even if it's a different guy. It doesn't need explanation.

...the lack of introduction to Loki might be significant, or it might be due to the fact that Loki's identity is pretty fucking obvious from his username. Probably the latter.]

[ikols]

Tic-Tac!

[ Sheer glee brightens Loki's face, grinning widely. A laugh barks free. ]

Scott Lang, father of Cassie AKA Stature? Wow, he came back from the dead way younger than he did where I'm from. Or has that not happened yet? Whoops, spoilers.

[wingedman]

[U h .]

Do people usually come back from the dead in your world?

[Sam's not really sure he wants to know the answer to this.]

[ikols]

[ Ehhh, the shruggiest shrug. ]

It's not uncommon? If Stark kicked the bucket tomorrow then popped back a week later due to nano-whatevers, my first response wouldn't be 'I'm so surprised'.

[wingedman]

Yeah, see, that's not a thing that happens where I'm from. Once you're dead, that's pretty much it.

[Yes, he knows, he lives in the most boring universe.]

[ikols]

Your universe is weird.

[wingedman]

Tony called it boring.

[Actually, the phrase he used was 'really fucking boring'.]

[ikols]

[ Pffft. ]

This will shock and stun you to learn, but Iron Man is not known for his subtlety. What else did he say?

[wingedman]

You're right, I'm totally shocked.

[Rolling his eyes. If there's one universal constant, it's probably that.]

He didn't do much talking about your world; I'm still kinda in the dark there. [Obviously.] Although you guys have a whole lot more superheroes than we do.

[ikols]

For real! And loads of factions, too. Avengers, Defenders, X-Men, Inhumans ... Do you have Doctor Doom?

[ Also loads of supervillains but let's not include them. ]

[wingedman]

Uh, it's pretty questionable whether or not we even have Avengers right now, let alone anything else. And I've never heard of Doctor Doom.

[Which is tragic, really.]

[ikols]

Shame, Victor's hilarious. Why are your Avengers not out avenging?

[wingedman]

Oh, yeah, I bet a guy named Doctor Doom is a real laugh.

[...he's not sure how much he wants to get into this with Loki.] Bit of a legal mess, some personal issues. Things like that.

[World's biggest understatement award.]

[ikols]

Which of you got She-Hulk for an attorney?

[toolatetochangethename]

[YIKES. Busted. So busted.]

[Cue nervous laughter.]

Uh, considering how awesome you are? [A for effort! ]

And it's not like 'the ant thing' is any less cool than 'the bird thing'.

[Except it is.]

[toolatetochangethename]

Well, you know, he's kind of a nerd.

[Scott: obviously a judge of nerds!]

[ikols]

You. You're Lang. [ Sam has a big mouth. ] At least you're not Pym.

[toolatetochangethename]

That's the name. Don't wear it out! [Why does he make that sound like a...thing?]

Hey, Pym's not so bad.




Okay, he's pretty nuts.

[ikols]

Are you part of the smaller Avengers' team?

[ haha puns. ]

[toolatetochangethename]

Hey. Define 'smaller'.

[Someone's a bit sensitive about size jokes ok?]

[ikols]

Seven or eight of you?

[toolatetochangethename]

Sure. I think you mean 'better' Avengers team, though.

[Just a small correction.]
