...What, this again? Seriously?

Look, you do what you've gotta do. I don't care. You can send me back to that game later if you go through with this, but I'm not about to apologize to you for joining a team that needed my help back then, just because you don't like the art style. At least my brothers and sisters had a decent reason to be mad about it at the time. Jeez.

In case you haven't noticed, I've got bigger things to worry about right now than your lousy canon review. Doctor Doom still has my parents, remember? And I can't even figure out what happens to them for like, another two months! So just go read your comic books already and leave me alone. Trust me, I'll probably still be here when you get back.

Y'know. Whether I want to be or not.

yes! an Alex! you are King/Queen!!

[msthing]

We'll get your parents out, Alex. You don't have to worry about Doctor Doom doing anything -- we're already several steps ahead of him.

DARLA DARLA EEEEEEEEEEE

[gees]

[ --! ]

Darla?

I--y-yeah. Thanks. I'm sorry.

[bunny_battery]

I'm still kinda mad at you over the whole stealing our powers thing, by the way.

But you should totally wear that silly jacket again.

[gees]

Katie? Uh, it was--I mean, at the time--why are you older than me?

[bunny_battery]

*so much giggling right now*

I'm from a nextgen game, watching over some new Future Foundation kids. Doctor Power, head of applied energy research.

[gees]

...Woah. Cool.

[bunny_battery]

*laughs again* I know, right?

[gees]

So...you're not mad at me about the whole "getting Mom and Pop kidnapped by Doctor Doom" thing?

[bunny_battery]

...You did what?!

[gees]

Uh-oh. [ crap CRAP EVASIVE ACTION ] ...No chance you'd agree to forget I ever mentioned that, huh, Katie-bear?

[bunny_battery]

Alex. What. Did. You. DO?!

[gees]

I didn't--I didn't MEAN for it to turn out like this! I only went to him in the first place because Scott was going to use the Foundation kids to try and stage some kind of--look, okay, I was just trying to do the right thing. I had no idea Doom would stab me in the back as soon as I walked in the front gate.

[ YOUR PARENTS TAUGHT YOU BETTER THAN TO WORK WITH SUPERVILLAINS, ALEX. ]

[bunny_battery]

Really. You had no idea Doctor freaking Doom was going to betray you? Really?!

[gees]

I know. I messed up, big time.

I'm sorry.

[bunny_battery]

Yeah, well...

Not like the rest of us haven't made plenty of mistakes too.

...Jack especially.

[gees]

Heh. I miss Jack. Bentley reminds me of 'im all the time.

[bunny_battery]

You'd be proud of him. He's a SHIELD agent these days where I'm from.

[gees]

...Jack. A S.H.I.E.L.D. agent.

[ the most disbelieving look ]

Our Jack.

[bunny_battery]

Yeah. We were all pretty surprised too.

[gees]

Bet that didn't go to his head or anything...

[bunny_battery]

Oh, not at all.

I find comparing him to Austin Powers usually shuts him up.

[gees]

[ snickering ]

[bunny_battery]

Though you might like that.

[molecula]

We've all done stupid things now and then. [says the girl who ran off to California and joined superhero rehab for all of five minutes.]

You'll get Mom and Dad back, though.

!

[gees]

[ deep breath, exhale ] ...Thanks, Julie. Me 'n the Future Foundation are going to do our best to get them out of Latveria.

[molecula]

I trust you. And them also, of course. [but mostly Alex cause he's her big brother and all.]

Don't worry, we've been through worse. You'll get 'em back.

[gees]

Thanks. It's a relief to hear you say that.

[molecula]

What, that we've been through worse or that I believe you can do it? [she's teasing, she's teasing.]

[gees]

Ju-lie.

[ but he's smiling. ]

Pre-Stamford Robbie.

[bouncytrouncy]

...that was probably not the best idea, yeah.

[gees]

[ well isn't that a blast from the past ]

...Uh. Which part?
