[selfequipped]

Hey all, it's Kate Bishop, and I figured we're in a position to try to bring together our information now. We got a lot of stuff over the weekend, and I know a number of people are looking into the situation with Captain Holiday. I know that I'm worried about him, at least, so hopefully, we can all come together.

After all, Loki and Annie have really put it best: sharing is caring when it comes to this stuff, so let's do some sharing.

Below, I'm going to try to organize our sharing and caring to the best of my ability! Talk among yourselves.

Thanks, everyone!

[ooc: for the sake of information sharing with the most ease, comment below and share information! I may be tagging around a bit with Kate within reason, but I figured it'd be good to have a big place to share information, especially right before the big plot gets underway this week.]

Comments

text; comm ID Peter Parker, so very backdated

[shutterbugged]

I don't think I have any info that's not common knowledge already at this point, but I'm looking for some -- you wouldn't happen to know anyone who's gotten some nullifier tech I can look at, do you? Either from the Hornet attacks or one of the other incidents.

Also backdated to the 20th.

[walkingballpit]

You can have mine on one condition. Get it off me.

[shutterbugged]

Oh, man. Can you get to [address in De Chima]? I could probably bring a laser to you, but I'd rather do it on site.

[walkingballpit]

Yeah, give me a bit.

You're not going to laser my hand off, are you? Why do you even have a laser?

text;

[shutterbugged]

We're a think tank, of course we have lasers. And it's okay, we'll build you a new one.

Kidding! Your hand will be fine, I promise.

[walkingballpit]

Peter! This is my favorite hand! I'm right-handed, I can't function without it.

What do you need a nullifier for?

[shutterbugged]

[ Huh. So Robbie remembers him. Should he say something? Would it be weird not to say something? ]

We'll be sure to give it the VIP treatment.

The usual -- to do a little tinkering, see how it works, compare notes with other people who've looked at the tech.

[ That's about as much as he want to say on the network. ]

[ Hey, when you meet the guy who's married to the hottie on the soap opera that you're obligated to watch daily for years, you remember the name. He's not miffed if he's not remembered. ]

Great. We can give it a full Viking funeral. You'll have to shoot the flaming arrow for me.

I'll have the EMTs on standby for one you blow up the battery cell. Or Jen, she's a doc.

[shutterbugged]

With my hand-eye coordination being what it is, you'd still be better off doing it yourself.

I'm beginning to find your lack of faith disturbing, Mr. Baldwin.

Did you just Star Wars me?

You did. You just quoted Star Wars at me.

[shutterbugged]

Kind of risky when we've had Darth Vader around before, but who could resist?

[walkingballpit]

Uh. Hate to break this to you, man, but Star Wars is like Secret Hospital. They're all just actors.

[yatagarasu]

You can have mine. I have no idea what to do with it because I can't puzzle it out.

[shutterbugged]

That'd be fantastic, thanks. [ "No pun intended," he almost cracks, before he remembers that people here who recognize the Future Foundation wouldn't think of it as a Fantastic Four spinoff, anyway. Welp, there's a pang. ]

Is there somewhere I can drop by to pick it up? I don't think we should trust this to the mail, with no disrespect to the USPS.

[yatagarasu]

Heropa Residence, #007.

[shutterbugged]

Great. Would sometime this evening work for you?

[yatagarasu]

Absolutely! Just ask for Kay Faraday, the Great Thief!

[shutterbugged]

Uh, will do. Interesting nom de guerre you have there.

[yatagarasu]

Don't worry, I'm the noble kind of thief.

[shutterbugged]

Out of curiosity, do you usually announce this kind of thing on the network?

[yatagarasu]

Yup. I should be proud of what I do especially when I'm on the good side, right?

[shutterbugged]

So no concerns about criminal liability, then.

[xpostate]

I've been studying the nullifier tech, and the ones the Hornets had are more like dampeners. Compared to the ones taken from Colorado, some of the elements are similar, but these are far more primitive.

Shame I never got a hold of the ones those Russians had.

[shutterbugged]

Now that's interesting. More primitive like formerly top-of-the-line tech that's gone obsolete? Or like it's been jury-rigged?

[xpostate]

Closer to the first. The construction isn't cheap or amateur, just outdated. The relative sophistication of the Colorado nullifiers supports this.
