Attention Avengers!

[info]in_extremis
Since I'm kind of caught up, do you guys (+Sue?) want to fight a very pissed off power-swapped villain this week? Being Avengers and all. It's not like we can just mope around and forsake a city in need. I assume someone's going to be blaming them for the shenanigans and will get all up in their business, like supervillains do. And then Wanda and Steve can awkwardly handle their new powers, possibly in disguise to not embarass themselves, with Sue and Jess (feeling impotent) making up a singe partly effective unpowered entity/control type role. And, you know. Tony's fine. Unless Raven touched him and made him useless, too.
Yes, no, further thoughts, concepts or input? You're allowed to say no.

Update: This is now an organizational thread. Any questions, ideas and concerns go here. We're going to assume the usual posting order rules, but if you want to pass your tag or steal one, note it here.
Since I sort of threw Tony directly at Sue, anyone have any qualms with starting this with two threads, one Tony/Sue and one Wanda/Cap/Jess? And we'll merge whenever we're ready. Whoever gets there first can start, it doesn't have to be Sue.

Extension

[info]ohmarvelousmod
So I'm gonna go ahead and extend the power swap to next Saturday so we have the opportunity to do more with it. Also, I will not, for this week, frown upon placeholders in order to just get something up related to the event <3.

Question

[info]ohmarvelousmod
So it's Thursday and the power swap even ends in two days. I wanted to know if you guys want me to end it Saturday as scheduled or if you want it extended to next Saturday?

The Power Switch Roster

[info]ohmarvelousmod
Okay everybody! Assuming no one else is going to sign up for the power swap at this point I've gone ahead and drawn the pairs (and we had an even number, yay!). I'll also include everyone's power descriptors as a refresher.

Drumroll please )

So the event post itself for initial reactions will be up Saturday morning and you'll basically have until next Saturday to do threads with your characters and their new powers or loss of powers, as the case may be. I'm trying to decide if I should have another actual post next week for everyone to react to getting their powers back or just for everyone to assume they have them again. What do you all think? Use this post to comment with your questions or concerns and to plot out what you want to do with your characters this week. <3

Power switching

[info]ohmarvelousmod
Okay, ladies and gents,

We're having a game event! In a week I will be starting an event in which any character in NYC on Saturday will be affected in such a way as to lose/gain/or swap their powers. I'll be drawing names randomly and so characters will be getting other characters powers, non-powered characters will be gaining powers and some powered characters will have to deal with being normal.

The effects will last for a week in which you can do threads with your characters trying to handle what's going on (with initial reactions in the post describing the event that causes this). If you don't want your character affected, have an excuse for them to be out of NYC on Saturday, conversely, if you do want them involved then make sure they're in the city for some reason. Uninvolved characters don't have to avoid the city for the entire week, that's just how long it will take the change to wear off after it initially happens.

If you do want to be involved, comment to this with the characters you want to change so I can know which ones I'm drawing from. Also, give a sort of summary of what their abilities are so we'll know what our characters are getting. Comment here with any questions, comments, or concerns <3.
