[Young Avengers, Homeless]

[! !]

Yes, I know, thanks! Look, I'm pretty sure that's just our Mun you're detecting.

[*Aggressive communication*]

What? No you shouldn't use the trans dimensional cannon on him! Why do you even have one of those?

[Suddenly the author began to feel rather uncertain about this state of affairs.]

[*Indignant communication*]

What do you mean why wouldn't you? And no, I'm fairly certain vaporizing is NOT the only option for dealing with a Mun-Hey, stop trying to priority override! No, I don't think he's going to take us to somewhere creepy, and if he does, you still can't kill him!

[The Blue Beetle knew that a true hero never killed the innocent, and that he would-]

If he keeps putting words in my mouth though, you can feel free to wing him.

[CRAP!]

Comments

Nicely done that made me laugh.

[tree_puncher]

Umm... Who are you talking to?

[Yes, Blue Beetle you've got the Player Character from Minecraft talking to you that had overheard you're little chat with the suit.]

[nodisintegrations]

Oh, um, I'm...talking to my armor. Wow, there was no way to say that without sounding crazy, was there?

[******]

What do you mean side effects of multiple cases of head trauma? I thought you were supposed to protect against that!

[tree_puncher]

...Um... Ok, I guess that's not all that weird I've once talked with the Passive Mobs of my Realm cause I had nothing else to talk to.

[Steve? is totally not trying to judge... Talking to things isn't odd, nope not at all.]

[hackingyoursensors]

[Uhhh]

Having trouble?

[headpool]

Don't worry kid. You're not the only one with voices in your head.

[True dat yo.]

[moonpowers]

... Are you feeling alright, sir?

[crockblocking]

[Just. This face, Jaime.]

Aren't you a little old for imaginary friends?

[nodisintegrations]

Only with armors that have no concept of proportional threat response.

[nodisintegrations]

...Great, I've hit rock bottom.

[Sympathetic communication]

No, knowing I could survive a high speed impact with a rocky bottom is not comforting right now.

[nodisintegrations]

What? Ah, yeah, I'm just great, really. Nice to meet you.

[nodisintegrations]

You're never too old to make friends.

[Condescending communication]

Thanks buddy.

[hackingyoursensors]

Your armor has an AI built into it?

[crockblocking]

Sure, but I said imaginary. Who are you even...talking to?

[moonpowers]

[ Smiles ] It seems you are a little troubled.

[nodisintegrations]

Yeah, Ted Kord must have installed it when he build the scarab.

I Just have no idea why he gave it the personality of a trigger happy WMD.

[hackingyoursensors]

Your guess is as good as mine.

But why can you hear it and I can't? Something like a neurolink?

[nodisintegrations]

No no, I'm fine really. I mean, I get to hang out with guys like Superman and Batman, well, their side-er, partners anyway, which is still very cool.

I just wish the Scarab would cool it with the overkill recommendations.

[nodisintegrations]

*sigh* The Scarab. The one attached to my back that gives me my armor? It helps me run the different systems, but doesn't really have a concept of appropriate threat response.

[nodisintegrations]

Could be something like that.

[*Amused communication]

Of course I know what a neurolink is! I think.

[hackingyoursensors]

It's pretty much what it sounds like-- a pseudo-telepathic link with an outside entity, usually inorganic.

I'm Robin, by the way. And you are...?

[moonpowers]

[ She tilts her and points to the thing on his back. ]

Would that be the scarab you are speaking of?

[nodisintegrations]

Yep, exactly what it sounded like.

Yeah, I know who you a-

Wait, first or second?

[nodisintegrations]

That would be it. It lets me call on my armor to help people.

[hackingyoursensors]

First.

[crockblocking]

...alright, I'll buy that. I take it not everyone knows, right?

[nodisintegrations]

First? Okay, we might have a bit of a problem, because where I'm from you're taller and traded in the red for blue, and now I really wish I'd actually read the temporal distortion protocol manual.

[nodisintegrations]

I'm not really looking to advertise that I have a voice in my head telling me to murder things, even if it does come from the scarab and not me.

[crockblocking]

Fair enough. Better to look like you're talking to yourself than tell anyone that.

[hackingyoursensors]

There's a temporal distortion protocol manual?
