[After the last few days, there is a single temptation in Kate's mind: to put this off. To let it rest. She's earned it. Then again, she'd end up guilting herself and worrying about it too much, so it's worth getting it out of the way. Besides, all of it is important, and she wants to help.

So, it's back to the daily grind.]

Hey, everyone, a few things of note! First, I've updated the FAQ to reflect a few questions from you guys, as well as the recent bills that passed (or failed to pass). Hopefully, this clears up some things, and as always, feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

On to the cleverly numbered points!

1. Shepard and I spent the last couple of months looking for information on some of the people from Annie's list. I call it Annie's list only in short hand.

I've compiled that information in this document here. Hopefully, that will add some light to things. Whether these people are Hornets or not is yet to be made clear, but I do want to draw everyone's attention to Eleni Wang and the fact that she might be in Greece. If you're up for going to Greece to ask her some questions, I think you should do it.

2. Unrelated to this, my team is looking for some new members! We call ourselves the Young Avengers, and we're a branch of a much larger team of heroes from back home. While this won't give you officially sanctioned Avengers-status due to the circumstances of being here, we are looking for a few extra hands.

The only conditions we have are that you're at least seventeen (though we can be a little flexible on this point), and that you're willing to work with us as a team to do some good. We all play to our strengths, and we'd love to work with some of the heroes here moving forward. As a team, we're a little less "you must do this" and "you must go here. Also, we're very fun, and you can annoy Loki a lot.

If you're interested, you can either drop me a line here or contact me privately with your credentials.

Oh, and I figure it's implicit in our name, but we're generally looking for younger heroes.

Thanks!

3. My twenty-second birthday is this Saturday, and I've gotten one of my favorite diners to agree to let me throw my party there. It's intended to be a less rambunctious gathering, especially with Christmas right around the corner. If you know me, you're probably invited. Please use your judgment wisely! Also, gifts are not required. Sorry for the short notice.

The location is [insert Maurtia Falls location that's near Loki's apartment.]

That's all!

team, huh?
I could be down for that.

I'll need to know your age, credentials, and training!

(Sorry if you are within the age limit, I didn't think it'd be a problem, but apparently it is a problem!)

I'm seventeen (eighteen soon), I've been training to kill giant soulless monsters since I was allowed to join the academy.
graduated from Signal and I'm on my first year at Beacon.
not that that probably means much if you don't know what those are but trust me.
i know how to throw down.

We met at Loki's cosmetic party, but this is a different sort of arena, so:

How do you like to have fun? This is apparently the question I didn't think I'd have to ask with some solemnity, but here we are!

oh wait yeah!
the violet princess, sup!
and uh geez that's kind of a broad question.
I dunno I usually hang out with my teammates back home. [True.]
sometimes I hit up this guy I know owns.[Just not in the usual 'hit up' sense.]
and if it sounds dangerous and kinda stupid, I'm usually all in.

Dangerous and stupid is the name of the game, but I try to make sure that dangerous doesn't get us hurt or killed. It's mostly delegation.

Have you done the teamwork gig before?

hey, I'm pretty hard to seriously hurt in most circumstances, so no need to worry too much.

yep.
four-person team usually.
my partner was here a while before she got sent home if that makes any difference.

What kind of ordeals did you face as a team? I just want to get an idea of what level of work you were handling.

well...
mind you we're still first year students but...
we tracked down a bunch of criminal activity.
destroyed a military-grade robot.
discovered a big base for the previously mentioned criminal activity.
beat up some goons and a few more robots.
on a train.
aaaand kind of had to spearhead the defense of a few city blocks when those criminals dragged a crapload of those soulless monsters I mentioned into a populated area of the city.

[If she leaves out her loss to the parasol girl, it's a pretty good look for team RWBY.]

And you're first year students at this academy where you hunt down soulless monsters? All right. I think that answers what I need to know. For most everyone (sans a couple people I knew already), I'm not giving definitive answers right now.

But I'll let you know soon.

mmyep that's about the gist of it.

and hey, no big dude, take your time.
if nothing else, we should hang and do the makeup thing again sometime.

We should! I don't have ... anyone really that I can do that with.
