[[SPOILER:You know if this RP lasts long enough you can turn him into VENOM!GARGAN]]

((OOC: OH GOD NO! I read that story arc in Marvel Knights Spider-Man. No. Just. No. DO NOT WANT! D:))

Someone...turned him into that?

shutterbug_13 March 20 2008, 15:06:22 UTC

Has to be. There's no other way he could have undergone such a drastic change. And what's worse, I think the transformation has left him a bit unhinged. He's dead-set on killing Spider-Man. I don't know why, but I intend to find out.

dragon_scholar March 20 2008, 15:32:39 UTC

I can hardly understand such a transformation, much less why anyone would do it, to themselves or someone else.

Just...be careful, yes?

shutterbug_13 March 20 2008, 16:03:03 UTC

Neither can I. But for some reason, I could make out Gargan screaming something during the fight. He was saying something about how Spider-Man ruined his life, and wanting to "get back" at Jameson. Honestly, is was all so confusing, he was so incoherent. More beast than man, hardly capable of human speech ...

I will. But if there's a way that I can change him back to the way he was before then I've got to try, right? Even though Gargan was a jerk, nobody deserves to end up like ... like that.

Believe me, the sort of people who would do that at all have no qualms about what they intend to use the end result for.

shutterbug_13 March 20 2008, 15:03:24 UTC

... You sound like you have experience in genetic mutations.

Uh ... if you don't mind me asking, but what's wrong with your face?

((I <3 you for picking up ol' Zel~))

unluckychimera March 20 2008, 15:18:34 UTC

If genetic mutations have something to do with twisting someone in to something they shouldn't be, then yes, I do.

I'm a chimera; a magically created combination of several creatures. In my case, human, golem, and a sort of demon.

oh god Lord O_O I would not go near him if I was you. But if you do, be really careful.

and changing the subject, you look good in spandex>/strike>

shutterbug_13 March 20 2008, 15:08:43 UTC

Well, somebody has to cover this story, and since I'm the only one with enough experience dealing with Spidey and his archenemies, I'm the man for the job. Besides, I'm desperate for the money. And, well ... the more I find out about what happened to Gargan, the more likely I am to find out how to help him.

Uh ... sure, thanks.

sassygirlsrock March 20 2008, 15:38:52 UTC

I understand your problems with money, I remember when I was your age and I was trying to find a decent job. I'm a fashion designer, I know it can't be compared to your job but it's more hard than you can imagine.

you're so valiant.

shutterbug_13 March 20 2008, 15:57:45 UTC

No, no! Any sort of artist's job is bound to be difficult. I mean, my girlfriend in an actress, so it can be hard to find work in that sort of field. Especially someone just breaking into the business with not a lot of experience.

Well, somebody has to take those pics and get the real story on what's going on. Just trying to keep the public informed, that's all.

Good Lord, Peter. How close did you get to those two, anyway? You really shouldn't get into the thick of things like that. It's dangerous.

And ... I think you're right about the actuator design. It definitely has Otto's stamp on it. I'm not sure, but ... there's a possibility his research could have been developed further after his "death". After all, his research would have become the property of Oscorp Industries.

shutterbug_13 March 20 2008, 15:55:05 UTC

It's a ... trade secret. Guess I'll some interesting stories to tell for "What I did over Spring Break."

Yeah, but after Harry Osborn died, the company would have changed hands, right? So, what I need to find out is who had financial investments with Oscorp and who would have legal rights to their research once the company changed hands.

lend_me_a_hand March 22 2008, 20:54:51 UTC

I ... suppose so. Just be careful, all right? No photo is worth losing your life over.

If I remember correctly, I believe that Oscorp had dealings with MechaBioCon Labs, which specializes in advanced bioweaponry. They might very well have bought the rights to Octavius' research.

shutterbug_13 March 25 2008, 15:51:20 UTC

I know, Professor. But, well, this is how I'm paying the bills, so ...

MechaBioCon Labs? Never heard of them. Of course, if they worked on projects like this, I'm pretty sure they'd want to keep their research as covert as possible.

Looks like I've got a lead. I'll have to give the ol' Webhead a head's up if I run into him.
