[ video ] - somewhat backdated to shortly after the storm since RL got in the way

Very well. Now that we have dealt with the pests some of you appear to have brought in without letting the rest of us know and thereby preventing us from being properly prepared in advance, let's do a little show and tell: What other potential threats from the home worlds of anyone present are there and what is the most effective way of taking them out? I want serious replies only.


Private to Tony

Stark, I have a task for you.

That's nice. I have a thing for waitresses. I'm glad we're sharing.

He’s sticking to video, thanks.

[ Wesker will simply ignore the written text. ]

I need you to build a device. Small. Portable. Designed for those among us that can’t or refuse to fight. A defense mechanism or shield that allows them to reach safety or help when none is nearby.

I know you are capable of coming up with something suitable.

Tony does like a show

[in_extremis]

That's not a one size fits all problem. What people are capable of under pressure has to be evaluated.

Sadly I am not surprised to find you argue against the safety of those most vulnerable of us. But the question is if you are merely arguing for the sake of arguing or if is this one of those super hero ticks where you ensure the local civilians to be as helpless and distressed as possible to allow yourself to swoop in as heroically as possible to safe the day?

[ Ah, sarcasm. ]

Unless, of course, you are merely one of those that are convinced nurses, teachers and schoolchildren should go about their day and work carrying a loaded weapon rather than creating a safe environment for them.

Whichever the case, I disagree. You have a week to design a prototype.

[in_extremis]

Wow. I didn't say any of that, but it's always nice to know someone's thinking of me. How do you think I'm answering this one? Take your time.

[sunglassesincluded]

You will do as you are told.

[ Not a question. Not a suggestion. A statement. ]

For the children.

[ And he cuts the connection. ]

Good thing he was texting

0 for 2. This is really not going well for you. You could try taking me out, lighting a few candles, you might get to know me better that way so you can stop striking out.

You’re a menace.
