If JJ remembers Professor X, then when he next seed Xavier (TV, newspaper, etc., will he recognize him?

Since JJ's mother made him learn piano, did she try various other instruments and/or singing?

Is Creeper a cannibal?

Any ideas for what JJ's favorite movies, music, books, tv shows, etc. are?

What version of Harry Osborn are you using?

"All the world will be your enemy, Prince of a Thousand enemies. And when they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you; hider, listener, runner, Prince with the swift warning. Be cunning, and full of tricks, and your people will never be destroyed."

Also
Crusty, can we have duplication-ish ability for fluff reasons? Does not have to be effective, but it would be funny if we could for example appear to split wile using some ability (heat mirage, or electrical distortion) or something like that.
Or make us randomly make illusions of invisible JJ. We should have some sort of failed power/comedy relief thingy.

>>31804917
I imagine JJ suggesting a council of sorts, like each group of mutants (no matter how big or small the group is) chooses a leader and the leaders are council members.

Shh.. We need more time in day to scavenge for some metal plates to warp around or arms for our armor.
And maybe the detectives will give us a mask.

>>31804938
Is the anon how made the list here? I've got more recommendations for the list.

>[X] “What kind of ‘weird cases’ do you deal with?”
>[X] “Do you deal with more mundane stuff as well?”
>[X] “What would I be getting paid?”

“Okay…” Where to begin? You take a rather unwilling (you didn’t really want any, you were just too polite to say no) sip of your coffee, more to punctuate your thoughts that anything else, and begin with perhaps the most important issue: “When you say you deal with weird cases, what exactly do you mean?”

“A fair question.” Says the Phantom, nodding almost knowingly, as if acknowledging some accusation or legitimizing something hidden in your question. “Unsolved disappearances, crimes where some supernormal aspects is clearly at play, the theft of very particular objects… that sort of thing. We keep it local, generally, but we’ve been approached by government agencies before.”

That sounds sort of impressive. And maybe a little ominous.

“And what about, um…” You pick through your thoughts for the most appropriate term. “…mundane stuff?”

“We dabble.” She replies, smiling broadly. “Occasionally a ‘mundane’ case will present some opportunity to do some lasting good. In fact, one of our most recent contracts would fall into that category.”

Lasting good? Sounds almost like this is more superheroes-noir than an actual detective agency.

“Uh, lastly… where exactly… I mean, what, what kind of role would I…” You pause. You know exactly what you want to say, but you’re not quite sure how to shape it.

>(2/2)

“Are you trying to ask how you’d be paid?” Interjects the Phantom, a twinkle in her eyes.

You nod a little sheepishly.

“Well, we wouldn’t be able to employ you immediately – not as a full-time detective, anyhow.” You kinda guessed as much. You don’t have an address, after all, and all personal information regarding you has probably listed you as either ‘deceased’ or ‘missing’ for some time. “I’m willing to offer the same deal I gave Sophia, however. You’d work for us on a case-by-case basis and receive a percentage of our fee roughly equivalent to your role in the case’s resolution.”

So, like… it all depends on how good at this you turn out to be? That could be a problem. You’re not really good at… anything, really.

“If that’s all, I’d like to ask you a few things now.” You pull yourself out of your internal panic and refocus your attention. “Firstly, Sophia has told us that you’re capable of invisibility. Obviously, that’s immensely useful to us. However… I’d rather not employ anyone without knowing exactly what they can do. Would you be willing to provide that information?”

>[ ] List all your powers.

They work in selling information. Don't trust a detective. We must hide our power level, otherwise they might sell us out/have stuff tortured out of them. Only stuff that will have direct benefit, and underplay it a bit. We don't want our skill set to be widely known.
Also we are shit at other skills, so we cant really use them at will.

We can reveal the abilities, if they would be useful, and if they ask why you didn't tell them tell that you only listed the ones you taught were useful for the yob. You just have too many to list them all in single sitting.

That said we should not be needing other abilities. Senses+strength should be enough to get hired. Invisibility/wall climb is just cherry on top.

>>31805516
No it is not. Telling that you can avoid stuff getting thrown at you, will make them place you in situations where shit is thrown at you.

Besides we don't have inhuman agility. Just balance and junk. That ain't even a superpower, we just are good at it. (we are so crack bich we fall from walls. As far as we know in character, we are clumsy as fuck)

>[X] List some of your powers.

You’re a little jittery about this whole total exposure thing. You’ve got enemies, and they’re not going to be sitting around stewing in their hate while you chat it up with these good folks. They’re going to be looking for every and any scrap of you they can find, anything they can sink their teeth into. And, hell, what if these guys just turn around and sell your capabilities out to the highest bidder? You don’t know these people – what you do know is that two of them wear masks, and the other smells like all the weirdest things you can do in bed.

Oh, and then there’s the chubby teenager, too. You kinda trust her, if only because she’s a chubby teenager and chubby teenagers are not threatening in the least.

You rattle of a quick list of the first powers to come to mind – your invisibility, your senses, your pointy bits, your baffling retard strength, your ability to Spider-Man your way up walls…

Eventually the guy sprawled beside you on the couch interrupts you with a long, low whistle.

“Damn, homme, you sure that all you?”

God, his accent is thick. Like a warm soup.

“Uh, yeah…” You swallow nervously. “I guess I have a pretty weird thing going on in that department…”

The Blonde Phantom, however, looks elated.

“No, no, not at all!” She claps her hands together, a half-moon smile hovering under her mask. “What Remy was saying, I believe, is that someone of such varied talents would mostly certainly be welcome to work with the Agency…”

But JJ does not know this. He falls off and gets hi by stuff regularly. As far as he knows, he is just bit more agile as normal person.
We might have + to rolls, but our actions and experiences makes us not see ourselves as such. At leas t in my opinion.

Besides, when was the last time we really used agility? Dodging stuff does not really count, as we got it from using senses before, and with time to act agility does not shine much.

“So…” So, apparently, these people are going to pay you to do possibly dangerous things, right? That would sound awful, except your life is already a progressively more violent succession of Dangerous Things, so really, how could this possibly go wrong? “…how would I, um, start?”

“Eeeexcellent.” Says the Phantom, her voice and general demeanour momentarily channeling Emperor Palpatine. “Well, we’d assign you a case that makes use of your talents. As it happens, I believe we have a number of such jobs lined up, just waiting for a dashing young man with the ability to turn invisible to come along and get them out of my hair.”

Clearing your throat, you ask about that last case she mention, the one about a young girl disappearing. God, you hope it has absolutely nothing to do with anything that could be construed as a supernatural presence of any kind… There better not be any orphanages involved, either.

“Oh?” Taking a small, dignified sip of her drink, the Phantom leans over the arm of her couch, fingers searching along a heap of folders and assorted papers stacked beside it. Eventually she pulls one out from near the top, flipping it open on her lap. “It’s a puzzling case. Quite the standard ‘locked room’ mystery, actually. The case was forwarded to us by one of my friends in the New York Police Department – the police have apparently put it on the backburner, what with this whole ‘gang war’ business eating through their time…”

You cringe a little. You don’t think anybody noticed until you see the last traces of a small, curious smile fading from Remy’s face.

Ffffffff–

“The disappeared minor in question is a Tildie Soames, ten years old, daughter to Martha and Donald Soames…” She reads on a little, before slowly closing the folder. “She vanished almost a week ago, apparently out of her room, which has thus far refused to yield any evidence of breaking and entering.”

True.
Though regardless of how well we know her or if she's been nice, we should apologize for just up and disappearing when we should have been working and IIRC we were working there for barely any time at all.
Even if she acted badly or something, apologizing for not making it seems like something you'd do normally.

Could always go there, scope the place out (senses) and see if it looks like she's doing something important. If she is, leave and come back later or wait.

>>31806511
You're saying that like apology takes a long time.
With a single phonecall you could apologize for not showing up to work, thank for giving Laura a job and to explain that you don't expect a second chance, but if she's willing to give one, he's ready to take it.

>>31806437
The X-kids only mentioned his first name "Vance"

We're the one's that figured out who it was using meta knowledge. JJ has no way of putting those two together.

>>31806546

Or just call.

>>31806580
>You're saying that like apology takes a long time.

Not really.

>With a single phonecall you could apologize for not showing up to work, thank for giving Laura a job and to explain that you don't expect a second chance, but if she's willing to give one, he's ready to take it.

I'd rather we do it face-to-face. Phone call apology is pretty impersonal, and possibly insulting to Felicia Hardy.

We should see if the case is related to who we think it is.

>[X] Inquire about the Astrovik matter.

“Uh, what about… the Astrovik thing?”

This time its Ricochet’s turn to speak up. He lurches forward on his seat and stares straight at you from behind that creepy mask of his.

“Dude, what? You haven’t heard?” He grabs a newspaper up from the desk and tosses it over to you. You glance down at the headline.

UNCOMFORTABLE QUESTIONS
The Case of Vance Astrovik Continues To Haunt The Avengers…

“An… acquaintance of mine contacted me about it.” Explains the Phantom, the totality of her expression hidden behind her cup. You read on.

Apparently this Astrovik guy was an Avenger, but a recent medical check after he was injured in the field revealed that he was a mutant – unregistered, too. Now the main body of SHIELD has demanded that he be ejected from the Avengers and placed in custody, which the Avengers couldn’t really comply with, seeing as the guy bolted before anyone could clap a pair of cuffs on him. Now Captain America is facing allegations that he knew about Astrovik’s genetic status and was keeping it quiet, and Vance himself is considered a fugitive from the law, most likely thought to be hiding out somewhere in New York…

Huh.

"I ain't havin' anythin' to do with that one..." Notes Remy, watching you out the corner of his eyes.

I'm OK with both cases. But Soames might be easier. We go to her house get the scent and track it. We have no way of getting Astrovik's scent. We would need to convince the X-kids to tell us and they don't trust us enough for that.

Do you really want to say this to a group of detectives that get paid to solve these cases, do you? Think about this now.

In case you were wondering; In the Marvel universe Kamar was an Atlantean that ran a terrorist organization called Cell-13. They blew shit up on the surface world because they're dicks.

>>31807024
This

>>31807187
Ergo the above qualifier of 'if no'.
If they're actually intending to 'solve' the case, we keep our mouth very firmly shut.

>[X] Take the Soames case.

Well, you’re not entirely sure what The Blonde Phantom’s interest in the matter of Vance Astrovik is, but you know you’re not selling another mutant down the river. You agree with the Cajun – you’re not having anything to do with that particular case.

“I think I could help with the, uh, the Soames thing. Case.”

The Phantom nods, and sets aside her cup.

“I was thinking the same, actually. Your senses might be able to uncover something the police couldn’t.” She flips the casefile back open, holding out her free hand. Gertrude sighs and hands her a pen, along with a sheet of paper from the printer on the other side of the room. “I’m copying down the details relevant to this particular case. Consider this a test of your mettle – perform well enough here, and I’ll put you on the Kamar matter. Your talents would be invaluable there.”

After a moment of scribbling, she hands over the sheet of paper, which is now covered with everything from addresses to phone numbers to dates of birth.

“Good luck, dude.” Offers Ricochet. Remy just nods.

Stowing the paper away in your coat, you thank the Phantom – you call her Miss Phantom, and she tells you that just ‘Phantom’ is fine – for meeting you and make your way out, heading down the long flights of stairs out into the cold.

They might not know.

All they said is that his friends brought him there.

>>31807726
How would a teleporter help with another teleporter?

She don't have teleporter-detecting super senses.

Wait till after we super sense what it is to ask for random people's advice.

>>31807667
It's always just JJ and Laura. Getting the others used to fighting is a good idea. I'd say Noriko because she has a ranged attack but if things go down hill she can't run as fast as JJ or Laura. Gabby is actually faster than JJ is and can teleport. The only issue would be her freezing up in combat. But the only way to keep that from happening is to expose her to more combat situations.

>>31807783
Yeah we need to get Noriko and Kevin to stop being lazy druggies

>>31807783
For hunting the vampire dude, sure. Though Gabby is probably the least prepared for fighting, mentally.

Why?
Getting some kids with barely controlled powers into a life or death fight for experience is fucking retarded. At least wait to do that until they've actually trained.

>>31807771
Can't she tell if there's been a teleport in or out of somewhere recently? Something about a residual trace of dimensional weakening or blahdeblah?
Or am I getting mixed up with something else?

>>31807800
Noriko almost died after fighting to save us, narrowly saved from a cut throat by quick thinking.

So she's not lazy.

>>31807909
Considering she avoids her powers, it's highly unlikely that she'd be able to do anything like that.

>>31807918
I don't really think either are lazy anon.

I'm just saying people need to start pulling some more weight if we're expecting to just pick up every drifter that we come across.

Noriko is definitely the second most competent behind Laura.

>[X] Head home.
>[X] Warn [YXM] about Vance.
>[X] Seek out the vampire.

You head home, turning over the matter of Astrovik and his fugitive status in your brain. On the one hand, he’s a pretty massive problem. On the other, it’s also – it’s also kinda cool. An Avenger. A superhero. Someone who has actually spoken to Captain America, not just, like, as a fan or whatever, but as a co-worker. Apparently his superhero name was ‘Justice’, which is kinda lame and honestly doesn’t ring any bells, but still…

It takes you roughly an hour to get back. As you approach the yawning mouth of the station, you notice a pair of figures struggling in the snow nearby. They come into definition as you draw closer, and you realize that the one presently being pushed down into the freezing tarmac is Lucas. Laura appears to have locked one of his arms behind his back, her knee grinding his neck into the dirt.

“Ow ow ow holy fuck god…”

“In a combat situation, you must be able to activate your abilities under extreme duress.” Notes Laura, her tone calm and even. She’s not even out of breath. “With your mutant abilities, you should be able to”–

She pauses, sniffing at the air, and looks up at you. Seizing the opportunity, Lucas squirms out from under her, rolling over onto his back and nursing his wrist.

“Jesus Christ!” He hisses it out through clenched teeth. “Do you have any idea how bad that hurts?”

She stares blankly at him.

“Yes.”

You guess Lucas wanted to get started with that training stuff as quickly as possible…

Plus if the vampire touches him, the vamp'll be dead as fuck.

>>31808108
I'm very confused about these options. We don't actually know anything about Vance. Nothing more than anyone else.

Gabby

>Wait did JJ confirm that Justice's superpower is telekinesis, the same as comatose Vance's?

You read a whole article on him. It most certainly mentioned that he's a telekinetic.

>>31808277
nobody reads the email field

Why don't we just take everyone to hunt them with us, with instructions not to get too close to them, everyone goes in pairs?

>>31808322
We should just tell Laura about the telekinetic ex-Avenger with the same name as comatose guy.

She can handle that.

>>31808332
>We can't keep Kevin invisible all the time.
I wasn't planning on taking him at all.

>>31808361
I obviously read it. It wasn't new information.

>>31808213
Everyone is jumping on the Laura bandwagon because that's what we always do. But there are other people in the group. I say take Gabby.

>>31808213
Let's take Barracuda

>[ ] Ask [Kevin] to tell them while you hunt vampires.
>>[ ] Hunt vampires with [Laura, Lucas and Nokiro]

Gabby is not ready.

>>31808213
>>[x] Hunt vampires with [insert].
Kevin & Laura

>because that's what we always do.
Or because she is the most competent and experienced fighter and hunting a vampire is kinda serious shit?

>>31808438
She'll never be ready if JJ never gives her a chance.

>>31808431
No joke, Barracuda would probably be a GREAT vampire hunter.
