[The video starts, showing a young woman with a bright bucktoothed grin, wearing a squirrel ear headband. There's a squirrel in a pink bow riding on her shoulder.]

Hey there Riverview. I'm Doreen Green. Also the Unbeatable Squirrel Girl. Normally, there's kind of a whole secret identity deal? But between showing up in costume and all the scans it...didn't seem really like it would work out here.

This is Tippy-Toe [The squirrel hops off Doreen's shoulder so the camera can get a better look at her.] She's my best squirrel friend and also the most awesome squirrel on this or any other planet. This is absolutely true, and I won't hear anyone say otherwise.

...well technically I will, since it's not like I'll suddenly go deaf if someone does say otherwise. I'm just going to ignore them.

Why not "unbeatable"? It's a pretty accurate summation of my ability not to be beaten.

In what, precisely? I find it unlikely you're unbeatable at everything. How are you at cheese? Cards?

...trivia?

Dude, I think you might be putting too much thought into it? I fight crime, and supervillains. and occasionally cosmic entities from beyond the stars. It's not really an all-encompassing unbeatability, it's mostly just for that stuff.

I rather think the opposite is apparent. Perhaps "The Indomitable Squirrel Girl" would have been more accurate.

[ But he waves a hand flippantly, as though that is hardly the point of this conversation. ]

I am Dorian Pavus, of no other name, and I'll not contest...Tippy-Toe is a rather remarkable squirrel.

[ She's a squirrel, after all. There isn't much of a bar there. ]

I like "Unbeatable" more. Plus Iron Man already took "Indomitable" as an adjective. Sure, Tony's not using it right now, but I don't really want to take it just in case he decides he wants it back.

It's a word, not a surname. If it would be better suited to a half-squirrel, then by the Maker, take it.

Re: video

That'd be rude. Besides, I've already borrowed enough of Tony's stuff for the time being.

[tevinteraltus]

Oh? And what sorts of things have you "borrowed" from this Tony?

[ So help him, he's actually curious. ]

An Iron Man suit to to go fight Galactus, then more Iron Man suits because it turns out I needed the extra thrust to escape Earth's gravitational pull to go fight Galactus, a ridiculous amount of money and groceries because my roommate Nancy and I were stuck in hypertime where we lived out an entire lifetime in the span of two days, and also the tech to fix things so that we were restored to our proper speeds and ages.

That all sounds ridiculously heroic and not the sort of thing any self-respecting well-to-do would consider requiring of repayment.
