I hope you do not mind the small plug for the ESD, Rachel. It always feels so anti-social posting only a private filter.[Filtered to X-Men + friendly mutants]
I have been speaking with Janet van Dyne, the Wasp of the Avengers of my world, and it has been suggested, and I wholly agree, that we should focus on building bridges between our teams here. She and I have decided to have a Thanksgiving dinner. Open to both groups, from all worlds. This invitation has already gone out to the Avengers. It would be a gesture of good faith if we made a decent showing. If actual Thanksgiving day does not work, we could do the day before or after.
I realise in the past, in my world, if not others, the X-Men and the Avengers have not always agreed upon what was right or how to handle particular situations. However, ultimately we have always had the same goals: protection of the world and its individuals and a commitment to our belief of what is right. Both of our teams have taken severe losses in the past few months, and perhaps our strength is not be found in standing entirely separate, but in rekindling friendships.
If anyone has strong feelings otherwise, please speak up, but I do feel that this could be a rare chance to extend olive branches, even they may be only for our time here.
