Hello, imPorts. Today, I'm here to talk to you about the importance of being a hero.

It's right there, isn't it?

ImPort. Im-port-ance!

[He claps his hands together to punctuate the word and grins.]

You are important, here, to this world as one of its heroes. Like The Avengers or The Justice League, every one of you has or was given some special skills to make you unique and to make you a hero.

It doesn't matter if you don't believe it now. You will. You were brought here for a purpose and you must all act accordingly. It doesn't matter what you did in your past. What counts is the here and the now and moving forward!

Maybe you're already making great strides to help. Maybe you're new and lost. Either way, you are important and a hero and always keep that in mind. With evey action. With every interview. You are the public face of imPorts; all of you!

Be the best hero that you can be and together we can prevail. We will overcome any threat. Break through any boundary. Foil any nefarious scheme. Believe in yourself, and believe in the people around you.

We will win this fight; whatever fight comes our way. Maybe through negotiations. Maybe through physical force. No matter what your power or skillset, you can use it to your best advantage. Your best power is right up here.

[He taps the side of his head.]

Your mind. Your will. Your belief in yourself and in others.

Keep hold of that and you will succeed.

[He looks pleased, pausing a moment before adding.]

Now I am open to any questions you may have. The floor is yours.

[ Poe gave him a hard look, at that, and let out a breath.

Great. Not really what he wanted to hear, but at least the man admitted it. ]


So. Hypothetically. Guy tells you he wants you to help him overcome his PTSD, using your tech. What's that look like?

It is! And it sounds like the world's got plenty of saviours already if even a quarter of the imPorts here have even half your energy. Gives me plenty of time to do whatever I want.

[ That - isn't quite the reaction he was expecting? There's a bit of surprise in his expression before he realizes that oh wait, Beck didn't figure out what was going on. And he'd better keep it that way if he wants to use this again someday. ]

What? You don't like a taste of your own medicine?

[ Because it was definitely Beck's tech. Yep. 100%. ]

[ Poe faltered. He'd never been great at lying, certainly not on the spot. ]

Someone I care about. [ He replied instead. Vague, but true. ]

So you can see why I wanted to see for myself if this was going to help them or hurt them.

And he got me free, which was all I could ask for. And didn't land me in another circle immediately.

I'd say it was a pretty successful test if it rattled you.

[ Okay it was nothing of the sort, but Peter's going to at least pretend like he had a plan here. As for the second objection, well. He shrugs. ]

How long are you actually gonna do this?

Oh, are you Spanish? [Again, not a SHRED of sarcasm or insincerity.]

[ Huh. No surprises there, maybe, but it's still interesting to hear Beck just lay everything out like that.

Also, if Marco has decided to tag along and listen in, he really hopes Marco doesn't judge him too much for continuing to talk to this guy. ]


'course I did. I mean, you were excited? But you didn't light up like you did when you showed off your tech.
made_up_names: (jesus what is that smell)

[personal profile] made_up_names 2019-08-24 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
[ Okay, he can't quite hide the face he makes at that. The people. ]

You do realize how you sound, right?

Look, man, it's mostly super dumb. I don't actually wanna escalate with him, but I'm still really upset with him for trying to murder me?

I think you're being super dumb but, hey, you do you. If he tries to kill you again, I am going to say I told you so.
made_up_names: (snopping)

[personal profile] made_up_names 2019-08-24 02:47 am (UTC)(link)
Like - you're coming down from on high to save the little people who don't know any better.

That's fair, man. You'll be first in a long line of people.

Who the hell are The Avengers?

People ruin things because they want to be on top and they'll kill whoever means shit to them. If your useless, you're going to wind up on the bottom of someone's boot.

You got me all excited. And call me Murphy. You keep saying man too much.
made_up_names: (awkward ear touching)

[personal profile] made_up_names 2019-08-24 02:54 am (UTC)(link)
[ Oops. He looks a bit embarrassed. ]

Murphy. Sorry. I've met a lot of people over the last couple weeks.

You must be very personable. What's your name?
