I've been trying to figure out how I feel about people taunting a genocidal robot and while I know I did too, it was just me being a brat, you know? Like, this is not the asshole who killed my parents or he'd have taunted me with holograms or some shit, but that doesn't make him any less terrifying, but I'm also not sitting this out. I owe that to myself, to my parents, to Tony, and to the Next Avengers.

Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the assessment that something else is more important than fear. Remember what that Roosevelt dude said.

Also, we're too pretty to die.

I don't want to make stuff awkward, but would you

uh

I'm asking you first before I ask your dad

but would you mind if I spent the week at your place?

	It was apocalyptic for thirteen years before it was actually post-apocalyptic. ~~I don't understand how this almost got done in a couple of days.~~ So, no. No Firefly. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That's even more horrifying. We'll fix that when this is all said and done. Just so long as you promise to stick to the No Dying plan. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I was actually chilling in the Arctic for most of it. [BRUCE] I know I was pressuring you to hulk out, but I'm also an asshole when I don't mean to be. Sorry. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Chilling. Arctic. Just me? [James] You know I'm not angry about that, right? You'd hardly be the first person in my life to want to push Him out, and frankly right now, I do, too. We took a hit recently and honestly, I think He might genuinely be scared. But you're not wrong, He would be helpful right now. Apology accepted but not needed. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If you can't joke about being trapped in a dome with an internal tropical climate that's also in the middle of the Arctic, then what can you joke about? [Bruce] I'd be annoyed. Possibly pissed. Hey, there's no pressure. If Hulk wants to come out, great. If he doesn't, I get it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I'm just a dork who likes to think I'm funny.

[James]

You say no pressure. I say I feel pathetically helpless and kind of useless. At least against Thanos we had - well, we called her Veronica. One of Tony's, created to contain the Hulk if he got out of hand. She's not here and somehow I don't think our 'Vindictive' Entity is going to be so kind as to hand her over.

	You're not a dork. [Bruce] How long did it take? To make Veronica? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	My version of your mother has told me otherwise. [James] Months. And that was just the basic groundwork. I'm definitely planning on pestering Tony to work with me on a new version but it just won't be in time for whatever the hell this is. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Overruled. You're not a dork. [Bruce] There's speedsters here, like Pietro. I'm not saying he's fast, but that weird elliptical lab out there? It got built in a couple of days. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Clearly the best of both parents, then. [James] Huh. Really? I...have to go poke Tony. Possibly physically. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I do my best. [Bruce] Barry Allen. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Another speedster? (Reply to this) (Parent)
