10° VIDEO
[There's a pause before Johnny's face appears on the screen, bent over to press the buttons. Once he confirms that the screen is on, he straightens and makes sure he's in frame, wearing very basic clothes.]
Aw, Reed. You shouldn't have! It's a little small, but I admit, I like what you've done with the place.
[He waits a beat, as if Reed might actually respond.]
There are two obvious possibilities for why I'm here. One, the Emperor is a crazed fan who abducted me to find out if The Torch is really as hot as they say he is – I am, by the way – or, two, I'm actually dead, they're lying to me, and I have a motorcycle and a pile of women waiting for me somewhere.
[A split-second pause.] I'll tell you what. If it's the first option? You can come find me. If it's the second, let me know and I'll come find you. Until then? This Fire Sector is like home, sweet home.
Johnny out.

[He snaps and a fireball appears above his fingers.]
See?
video;
Buddy, you ain't even the second person I've met who can do that.
video;
I can do a lot more than that. And the Fantastic Four? Come on, man. We're superheroes. We save the world. Literally. You have to have at least heard of us.
video;
Nope, doesn't ring a bell. [He can guess this is time stuff, but nope, not giving anyone using Jim's name the satisfaction.]
video;
I could destroy the universe if I wanted to. But yeah, I can light myself on fire and fly too. What do you do?
[Yeah, he's being petty basically.]
Funny. I don't know you either. The difference is, I'm an international hero.
video;
He's inwardly laughing at the irony here, though; back home, in his time, he was an international hero, famous even before the world of social media. They made comic books about him.] Never said I was supposed to be anybody. Some of us are just regular guys. [Or laying low.] And you ain't much of an international hero if I've never heard of you; I've seen all the greats in my day.

Runnin' around showboating like some kinda celebrity, some Torch you are.

Yeah, some Torch I am. The Torch. I am a celebrity.
