The List is Up...

*Tony is back in the Nexus, this time, he's posting up artist's interpretations of quite a few well known Nexus-ites*

Alright. This is the deal. These people are known dissidents and Enemies of the United States of America.  Anyone found aiding them will be incarcerated along with them.

Anyone who signs up now will be afforded all the benefits the

"Dude, I do not think anyone actually signed, you just took names. Completely different."

((and your list is broken))

[iron_avenger]

Registration implies a certain amount of paperwork to be filled out. And to make things like that they usually need to be signed, kiddo.

[[I'm trying to fix it! Urgh.]]

[in_jubilation]

*sigh* "You what to know the two main things wrong with this, Tony? First, the whole notion of registering super-humans to 'protect' others, when that is just BS. It is going to hurt people when bad guys know our real names, find our families, hold people hostage, you know that sort of thing. PLus, you claim it is to keepp us equal to regular folk, but guess what not even all the regular folks are registered. Murders go unsolved every freaking day

[iron_avenger]

Well, Ms. Lee. What do you suppose we do to the superhumans out there who can't be held accountable for what they do wrong? Can the government and the taxpayers keep absorbing the billions of dollars in damages caused each year by their actions? There are a myriad of reasons why a murder would go unsolved.

I'm doing the civic duty assigned me. As well as upholding what I believe in.

I'm only doing what I believe is right, Ms, Lee.

I see... at least two deities on this list. Neither is on your side. Are you determined to carry through on this?

*The armored figure's visor glows, quite opaque, and the voice that emanates from it carries audible signs of the filters that have removed any trace of sex or accent. There is precious little to link this being with the sharp-tongued woman with the slight Oxford accent who advised Tony to return to Earth and called him a monkey.*

((Psst! Your richtext tags are showing! Html, too. That richtext editor's a beast, isn't it?))

[iron_avenger]

Yes. I don't go back on my words.

*He doesn't make any connection, but that won't matter later on anyway.*

[[Fixed. I hate the damn thing.]]

[onemorebounty]

((It's a beast and a half. And on closer perusal of the list, I amend my count to four gods minimum.))

Pity.

*The armored figure looks him over appraisingly.*

[iron_avenger]

[[Four gods? I didn't count. xD He's going to have quite a time.]]

If you say so.

*He eyes the other person's armor, already trying to analyze components and picture upgrades*

[keeper_melisan]

Melisan listened carefully to Tony's speech. "Son, how much do you know about international relations? As for your second question, I'm a diplomat in a decidedly foreign country. Half the things I do are seen as weird or backwards by the locals."

[onemorebounty]

From his remarks during his last visit, I have the impression he thinks his government's laws apply to everyone, regardless of origin or location.

[in_jubilation]

"It is not exactly his government's laws either."

[onemorebounty]

He's doing this on behalf of a government he owes no alliegance to?

[iron_avenger]

I don't like it either. But it needs to be done.

I can't.

[[Eh?! *sighs* Those could be counted. But they're not officially powers, so... *sigh*]]

[iron_avenger]

Because. There is a direct connection to our country from this place. Any unregistered superhuman from here could just waltz right in, cause havoc and waltz out again. Would you like someone you could do nothing to hurting your parent's Valeria? This Act is to protect everyone.

[[*Sigh* Damn Editors.]]

[ollies_arrow]

"Stark! You Tin Plated Fascist!"

He's too dumbstruck to say anything else.

[iron_avenger]

Sticks and stones, sticks and stones.

[ollies_arrow]

"I'll just be grinning when they hand your ass to you Stark. 'Cause damn, you've underestimated this place."

[iron_avenger]

Sure, sure. I'm sure they'll 'show me real good.' Later.
