My apologies to anyone I may have offended during my most reason bout of delusions and insanity

Captain --

That doesn't mean we cannot pursue reforming the team for other purposes. Osborn has a public relations head start on us. We should work quickly to catch up.

Outside of financial backing? Nothing to speak of. However, I'm confident we can find a way to work around such a disadvantage.

Whatever you want to do, I'm with you.

[He pauses, looking over to her with the most adoring expression ever.]

I know. Thank you, Angelica.

[microwavemutant]

[She pulls her knees up under her chin, smiling brightly.]

If nothing else, we'll have a team of two.

[oncemercurial]

I'd rather it didn't come to that. They shouldn't be acting this way.

[He shakes his head and returns to pacing. SO DISAPPOINT.]

What are you suggesting we do?

Re: voice; filtered

[oncemercurial]

Form a separate team and conduct ourselves as Avengers. We might not be able to usurp Osborn at the moment, but we should be doing something.

Name the time and place and I'll be there.

This has gone on plenty long enough.

Excellent. I hope the others will be as amiable.

The made him an Avenger too!? What kind of screwed up twilight zone world is this?

[voice; private]

[oncemercurial]

They did nothing. Osborn stole the title of Avenger for himself and his team of pretenders.

[spiderfanboy]

And why has nobody stopped him?

[oncemercurial]

A very good question indeed.

I was introduced to both 'teams' calling themselves by that name shortly after I arrived here. I'm not much impressed with either.

[voice]

[oncemercurial]

Understandable. Do you have any suggestions for improvement, or any particular reason you found one or the both to be underwhelming?

I wouldn't presume to. The only teams I'm accustomed to are mercenary units under military supervision. I met the leaders in the context of preparing for the evacuation of that city on the other side of the continent. I worked with the X-Men instead, I respected their leader more.

If you want my brutal honesty, I've lived far too long and dealt with too many despotic leaders who use their charisma and propaganda to enchant the populace, while doing nothing or worse than nothing, to be swayed by the images either this Osborn or Stark attempt to put up. I've known men like them, and I'm not easily charmed. As a former general I expect results, not speeches.

[oncemercurial]

But results would eventually earn your respect?
