[the camera feed cuts in on a room half in shadow, lit by a bare bulb hanging from the ceiling. On the wall behind Ghost are newspaper clippings, a lost dog poster, several missing kids posters, and numerous sticky notes on papers, penned with brief messages like "WHERE DID THEY COME FROM?" and "GLOBAL FINANCIAL INSTABILITY" and "1.2 MILLIGRAMS PER

Oh, Ghost. Maybe you should take a nap.

[technophantom]

Sleep is when they come for you, Mr. Stark.

Hhh.

[liverletdie]

Oh now that's just nasty. I don't kick a man when he's down, or sleeping.

Despite how unlikely it seems, Mr. Stark, my experience suggests you do have some good in you.

When you let it surface.

[subconman]

how poetic.

[technophantom]

Is it?

It all fits. If you have the whole picture... [sounding mildly troubled] I see patterns.

[subconman]

then by all means, share with the class.

[technophantom]

[ namora does not care about your preaching ]

What are you suggesting?

[technophantom]

A reaction to establishment.

They won't listen, but sometimes people surprise me.

Are you settling in?

[submersing]

I would presume that you are a better judge of people than I. There will be reaction.

[ a pause and the camera shifts to a view of the sea. she's flying over it. ]

Hehheh. We might be about even, on judging people.

[interest piqued, leans forward to examine the comm. That looks nice. ;;] Yes, it is. Humans inflict misery and suffering on one another. I find it abhorrent.

To parallel your world's value--if a handful of people had access to the most beneficial blood color, and could choose to share it out among more, but inbred instead.

[PAUSE] Iron Man is the enemy. He has enormous influence in my world and here.

[swwag]

but inbreedin is functionally impossible in my race

[PRIORITIES.]
