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.]

You don't expect a single guy to cook, do you? [Seriously.]

How 'bout booze. Can I bring some booze, at least?

[wingedman]

You can definitely bring booze for the cooks- I mean, for everyone.

And I'm sure you could find a place to buy a pie or something if you wanted. I'm not making anyone cook if they can't do it.

[toolatetochangethename]

Pie? Is that how you say 'pizza' or something?

[He's not a pie guy, ok?]

[wingedman]

You know, like the baked goods. Dessert's always a good plan. Or just stick to booze.

/threadjacks

[divulsion]

Yes. Bring alcohol please.

[A lot, okay?]

threadjacks are the best jacks

[toolatetochangethename]

You got it. Any preference?

[He's got a legitimate job here, that actually pays, and he knows where the liquor store is. Man, plan: he's got it all. ]

Wait. Are you even old enough to drink?

[Scott Lang: Law Dog? ]

:>

[divulsion]

[Scott pls.]

I'm twenty-four and can drink you under the table, Scott.

[Probably. She'd bet on herself anyway.]

And anything is fine as long as it's strong and tastes good. What do you usually drink?

Re: :>

[toolatetochangethename]

[ Whew, he's trying to be a good guy family man type guy and that's one bullet he doesn't have to dodge. But. Oh. Oh rly? ]

You think so, huh?

[His ego disagrees. Stridently. ]

California's tequila country, mostly. What about you?

[divulsion]

Vodka. Wine. Beer. Whatever is available.

[She could never afford to be picky back in Sokovia. That hasn't changed in the last year or so.]

And yes, I know I could. My liver is young and strong, after all.

[toolatetochangethename]

Right, so not a fan of chick drinks.

[Keep talking like that and Scott might be falling in love here. Just a little bit.]

...hey, how old do you think I am?!?


[That 'fweeeeeee' sound might be his ego deflating.]

[divulsion]

I like cocktails too but it's easier to get a bottle of something that doesn't need mixing, isn't it?

[And then her small smile spreads into something wider. She gives Scott a little shrug.]

As for your age, I think you are far, far older than I am.

[No, probably late thirties, early forties at most, based on the age of his daughter, but she can't help but tease him because he sounds So Concerned.]

[toolatetochangethename]

But hey, if it's a party, isn't that an excuse for the fanciest cocktails out there?

[Man, where's Luis when you need him, with his incredibly deep knowledge of fine wines?]

[IF he feels any older, he's gonna start creaking. Thanks.]

I don't know, like...sixteen? [All he knows is that when Cassie gets that age, he's going to lose his mind.]

[ikols]

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.]

[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. ]
