spoilers for FF #1

[gammas]

Well, this is it.

New icons, a new look, a new uniform, and a new team. Say goodbye to the old Shulkinator, everyone, and hello to the new and improved Glamazon!

Hey, you were as skeptical as everyone, and look at us! Look at me, rather. I'm great and I'm fabulous and I'm doing Ben a favor that can only turn out to be awesome, right? Being on the FF was one of the greatest times of my life -- how could I turn something like that down? And really, who can say no to that face?

So. New everything -- does that mean new game?

I'm a working, spandexed girl for real now. Clearly that means I need to get out of your headspace and into a game.

Comments

[trickshot]

If I comment on the new look, is my punishment the same as it was last time?

[medusalith]

I, for one, miss the purple of my old uniform.

[ BECAUSE HER FF TEAM SAD NO TO MATCHING UNIFORMS... ]

But you have my best wishes on finding a new home, Jennifer.

[gammas]

Depends on what you're going to say.

[trickshot]

Whatever I say, I can't be harder on your new look than you were on mine.

[gammas]

[ whining... ]

You shaved your head!!

[gammas]

The feeling's mutual, Your Majesty. Seriously, purple's my shtick. Red, not so much. Going to have to wait out the Christmas comments now.

[ LE SIGH ]

Thanks though. Fingers crossed that I find somewhere, right?

[trickshot]

I cut my hair. Not the same thing.

[gammas]

It's not cute and shaggy anymore. Now you look like Danny or someone.

[trickshot]

Y'know Danny's like, a foot shorter than me, right?

[gammas]

Hey, that means absolutely nothing when you're my fabulous height.

I'm just saying that the shaggy, puppy dog look was where it's at for you. None of this, almost semi-formal business man thing.

[trickshot]

I'm scaling back. Keeping things simple.

...dropping some baggage.

[gammas]

I hope you plan to elaborate on that, honey. We may be besties, but unforeseen circumstances have kind of nixed my ability to read minds.

[trickshot]

Nope. Not happening.

So, FF again? Avengers not good enough for you anymore?

[gammas]

Woooah there, cowboy.

Don't even try to subject change slash guilt me away from your deal. Talk.

[medusalith]

Please, Medusa is satisfactory. There is no call for such formality between teammates.

[ SHE IS TRYING A NEW THING, IT IS CALLED NOT BEING A QUEEN FOR A BIT AND SHE'S NOT SO SURE SHE LIKES IT. ]

Of course. Is there a place in particular you have your eye on?

[trickshot]

It's just the usual, Jen. Shoot a few arrows here, save the world but let Cap have the credit there...

But, c'mon. I wanna hear about your new gig.

[gammas]

Aw, Clint. [ :c ]

Alright, I'll tell you, but you gotta tell me the whole story, okay? [ and going on anyways ] So apparently, the Fantastic Four are leaving the -- uh -- universe or something. I don't know; Ben was being a little vague. But basically, Queen Medusa, Scott the Ant-Man, me, and... Johnny's girlfriend? Got invited to be replacements.

Nothing big.

[gammas]

Right, right. It's always hard getting used to working with royalty, you know?

Hmm. Not really? I know a place but it's not exactly a one hundred percent and I'm definitely keeping my options open anyways.

[trickshot]

You and Scott? Now they're just stealing all my favorite people.

[gammas]

You know, I bet I could wiggle you in. We could be the FF -- Fabulous Five.

[trickshot]

I've kind of got stuff going on with three other teams right now. Might be hard to squeeze you in.

[gammas]

So this is where you tell me about what's going on in your life now, right?

[trickshot]

I just did, didn't I? Lots of.... Avengers stuff.

[medusalith]

I cannot say it has ever been a problem I have had faced before, no, but I shall take you at your word.

Then I certainly wish you luck on the matter. It can be tiring at best and annoying at worse to have no place to go when you desire it.

[gammas]

Cliiiiiint.... !!!

[gammas]

Not trying to brag, but I think I'm one of the easier muses a mun has to put up with, you know?

Have some cute guys, fun action, and a sweet place, and I'm content.

[trickshot]

What? What d'you want me to say? Things are kinda crappy, a lot of the time! Half the time all I wanna do is go home and sleep, but when I try something else falls apart and I have to go fix it.

[gammas]

Baby. [ 8C ]

Things will look up though. They always do. I mean they may seem tough and crappy now, but smiles, right?

[trickshot]

...right. You're right. We've got this.

[gammas]

And if anything, you can call... you know.

The option's on the table.

[trickshot]

You've got other stuff on your plate. Fantastic stuff.

[gammas]

The phones at the Baxter building aren't going to fantastically disappear.

[trickshot]

Or, you could come by my place. I'd order pizza.

[gammas]

Do we get to watch Pretty in Pink?

[trickshot]

Maybe.

[gammas]

Pretty please with a cherry on top?

[phyla]

It's definitely a change of pace for you.

[and then a little begrudgingly:]

Good luck.

[trickshot]

O-kay. But only for you.

[gammas]

You're the best, babe. Mwah.

So why's stuff so crappy for you?

[gammas]

Hey, nothing I'm not used to. If anyone's used to changes of pace, it's moi.

Thanks, Phy. I 'ppreciate it.

[trickshot]

I'm heading a team that hates me, and am I screwing up everything else? I dunno. I just need to get my head together.

[gammas]

[ why wasn't she invited to be on this team rude ]

I doubt they hate you, babe.

[trickshot]

No, they really do. Brian's an ass and I have to deal with Venom and Natasha ditched me. It's a mess.

[gammas]

Wait -- who exactly is on this team?

[trickshot]

Uhm--it's a secret?
