	[Thinking.] Keeping it around supers is a mistake, so locking it up in your base might cause trouble. I think there's something about this alien that lures people, from what I've read. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	We don't have a base. I'm sure Tony could think up somewhere to put it where it would be of the least worry. [...] Is it going to be needed again? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: eddie/steve riddlethem 2014-07-23 05:52 am UTC (link)
	It's okay, we only recently got a base. I'm tempted to keep it there, but I don't want it making friends with Superman. I don't know. It's going to be extremely powerful. If Jason or someone else knew how to use it responsibly, it could be an asset. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Do you think he could, Jason? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: eddie/steve riddlethem 2014-07-23 05:55 am UTC (link)
	I've seen Jason do good things. He's misguided and not the brightest crayon in the box, but it could be possible. Then again, if someone tried to take my mother box away from me because of my past, I'd fight them for it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: eddie/steve atrophy 2014-07-23 05:57 am UTC (link)
	[He has never heard that crayon saying. And, also, mother box?] Mother box? [Squint.] If you think it would help him to keep it, and to have something to learn from, I'd support your decision. You know better than I do. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: eddie/steve riddlethem 2014-07-23 05:59 am UTC (link)
	Mother box = Machina. She's a super computer. That sounds like my mom. I don't know, I'm spit-balling at this point. I don't think getting the suit away is going to be easy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: eddie/steve atrophy 2014-07-23 06:02 am UTC (link)
	Oh. [...] Cool. [Slang is hard.] The only thing that I can think of is sending it out into orbit. I have a feeling that could easily come back to bite us in the ass, however. There's the arctic. I got a good 70 years out of it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: eddie/steve riddlethem 2014-07-23 06:04 am UTC (link)
	That was the most flaccid cool I've ever seen. I think this thing could ride a comet in space until it finds an alien to chomp on. I could give it to the New Genesis aliens, but they'd probably try to study it and ruin their species. [Blink.] The arctic is a good idea. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: eddie/steve atrophy 2014-07-23 06:07 am UTC (link)
	Cool! I'm still learning. Is a period too dull? Let's not take down any species if we can help it. [...] Do you [...] think he'd go looking after it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: eddie/steve riddlethem 2014-07-23 06:10 am UTC (link)
	The oh makes it feel insincere. I prefer neat or innnteeressting. Depending how he parts with it. If he doesn't want it, then I don't think so. If he gets it taken away from him, absolutely. Do I think he'll find it? Unlikely. And, even if he does, we could make sure the place is extremely secure. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: eddie/steve atrophy 2014-07-23 06:12 am UTC (link)
	Innteeressting. Explain to me why he wouldn't want to part with this thing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: eddie/steve riddlethem 2014-07-23 06:14 am UTC (link)
	I love it. Imagine you are a man that everyone believes to be irresponsible, reckless and stupid. Imagine how you would feel if members of your family try to take away power that you believe could be useful. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: eddie/steve atrophy 2014-07-23 06:15 am UTC (link)
	Even after that power, wielded by me, nearly killed someone I cared about dearly? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: eddie/steve riddlethem 2014-07-23 06:17 am UTC (link)
	Now that you can control that power, wouldn't you want to make things right? You can't tell me you don't understand the allure of great power, no matter what the form. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: eddie/steve atrophy 2014-07-23 06:20 am UTC (link)
	I understand it, but I'm aware of how much it warps people's humanity, and I like to think that'd influence my decision. I've met too many dictators to think great power is good in the hands of any one person. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: eddie/steve riddlethem 2014-07-23 06:22 am UTC (link)
	But, aren't there people in your door that hold power no one else does? That, if they went rogue, would force a handful or more heroes to take them down? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: eddie/steve atrophy 2014-07-23 06:24 am UTC (link)
	Of course. There are people, but hundreds of them acting together. Not one. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

If Jason intended to use the suit for good, it'd be under the umbrella of the bat family. Whether or not they'd keep him in check is debatable, but I don't think he'd use it solely for his own purposes. How do you determine if someone should have power? If they have a good heart? What if they have a good heart, but they're a colossal fuck up? Do you let them keep it? What if they're your brother? Do you stop them because you think you know best?

	Re: eddie/steve atrophy 2014-07-23 06:42 am UTC (link)
	I think most people have a good heart. And I don't get to determine who should have power outside of who already has it and is abusing it. In which case, they don't deserve it. When it comes to Jason, I think that conversation is best left between him and Gwen. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: eddie/steve riddlethem 2014-07-23 06:43 am UTC (link)
	If she wakes up. Well, if I get the suit, I think the arctic is the best idea so far. I can write up some blueprints for a secure base for it and we can flip a coin for which door we want to keep it in. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: eddie/steve atrophy 2014-07-23 06:45 am UTC (link)
	What would you do? If it was you and you were that boy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: eddie/steve riddlethem 2014-07-23 06:50 am UTC (link)
	I spent the last six years proving that I can use my mind for good. I'm a reformed criminal and it's easy to assume the world is against me for it. [Blink.] I'd want the suit. I'd want to make things right. And, I'd want the people I care about to trust me enough to do it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: eddie/steve atrophy 2014-07-23 06:51 am UTC (link)
	Then give him the suit. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: eddie/steve riddlethem 2014-07-23 06:55 am UTC (link)
	[Blink, blink.] Agreed. It's a risk, but everyone deserves a chance to make things right. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
