[The feed turns on to a pair of brown eyes staring into the camera and after some time and a bit of fiddling, pans out to show a young woman, knees folded underneath her as she sits in her suite. Her hair is a mess, partially because of the sea water, partially because it looks as if she lost a fight with a barber. There's no symmetry to her hair, no order and if you are the type who pays attention to details, you may notice the cause might have something to do with those strangely patterned burns on her face, leading up into her scalp.

There's an eery smile on her lips, not one born of cheer or goodwill. In fact, she looks anything but happy, a subtle anger only seen in the repeated motion of her fists squeezing until her knuckles go white then relaxing, yet that smile still remains.]

I guess expecting the escorts here to be more helpful than they were back home was a waste. I don't know about the rest of you, but if I hear "that's the Emperor's business" one more time, I might scalp someone. [A joke, mostly. She's weaponless currently but like hell would she ever admit to it.] So, anyone going to tell us why we're really here? Or do I need to get an audience with this emperor guy after all? I'm retired but if they're wanting a show, giving me something better to work with would be a nice change of pace from useless.

note to all the newcomers:

you are really not more important than the rest of us, fyi. and demanding answers? is pretty dumb. because if we had them do you seriously think we'd still be here?

yeah.

thanks for playing. feel free to link this to any n00bs past or present, because some people seriously need a wake-up call.

oh yeah and welcome to the jungle or something.

[Victor looks a little annoyed when he turns on his console tonight. Behind him, the view of his suite is blocked by some rock. A big, talking rock to be exact. Santo's right there behind him.]

Hey, everyone. I've got a question for everyone that's familiar with superheroes. It's about the costumes. They're an important thing to have, right? For a lot of reasons like protecting and hiding secret identities.

But this guy [He jerks a thumb over his shoulder at Santo.] just says they're stupid.

Don't get me wrong, the costumes are cool but that's about it. Wearing one just to hide your identity is what's stupid. You don't see Ms. Marvel, Iron Man, or Hawkeye worried about people knowing who they are. Hell, Luke Cage doesn't even wear a costume and he kicks all kinds of ass!

Besides, you don't see any X-Men hiding behind a mask.


[Victor just rolls his eyes.]

Lots of X-Men have worn masks. [He shakes his head.] So what do you guys think? Costumes important for superheroes or not?

The answer is obviously not.

[Victor doesn't even bother replying. He just gives Santo a look.]
