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.

Some of that suspicion comes from him having been through quite a bit. More than me I expect.

[made_up_names]

[ Oh, Marco. Peter's expression softens. ]

More than me too. Like - I think he needs some help.

[ He means that in the very nicest, most supportive way possible. ]

[helpdesk_hero]

I know what you mean. But he doesn't take the implication of it well.

[They all need help. In the nicest, most supportive way possible.]

[made_up_names]

[ A soft sigh. ]

I mean, I get it. You spend all this time trying to convince people you're capable. And this feels like admitting defeat.

[helpdesk_hero]

Exactly. That's part of the problem of being young when you get into this field.

[made_up_names]

Too late to fix that now.

[helpdesk_hero]

It really is. Just be careful. And if Marco tells you to bail, please do.

[made_up_names]

I will, I promise. I honestly don't think this will be dangerous. If he had mind control powers, he's already had a chance to use them.

[helpdesk_hero]

True. Have a good time, Peter. If you can.

[made_up_names]

[ Ugh. He makes such a face. ]

Aye aye, Cap.
