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.

Name's Max, but I'm not really looking for a third job. The other two keep me pretty busy. [Mysterio might even kind of recognize Max from online ads or newspaper ads for energy drinks.]

[Max laughs just a bit there.] Thanks, bruh, but for real. I'm just a spokesman for an energy drink company. I'm not someone with a degree in marketing or anything like that.

Besides, Aegis Force isn't something I plan to quit anytime soon.

Oh, for real? Jacob knows how to run a ship [haha] and we're trying to do as much good as possible. If you're on board for that, then good lookin'.

See, yeah, that's it right there. It's what they want us to do anyway, but we get to do it more on our own terms. Helping out our way, but not doing it just to piss off the government.

[He shrugs.]

No more than you'd think they'd expect. Let them know what we're up to, keep things transparent for the public, protect civilians as much as possible... Shit like that. My team back home didn't have as much freedom to do what we wanted.
topmeup: ([try again] 059)

Back home we focused on monitoring unknown superhuman activity for potential threats and locating supers who needed additional support or training. It was for a government agency. So all the red tape you could want.
