awakened to cheers after years on the faultline

[retconman]

WHO: THE AVENGERS
WHERE: The new Avengers Embassy, at Stark Tower (the one that's not the Porter building)
WHEN: Tuesday, Sept. 25th afternoon to evening
WARNINGS: Probably nothing?
SUMMARY: Max Lord introduces the newest member of the Avengers to the team: Black Panther! Everyone, get to know each other, this is for mingling of all sorts.
FORMAT: Quick.


[ It's not exactly a meeting; they can discuss pertinent issues (as always, Max has a whole agenda of topics to bring to the table) another time, because today, what Max wants to talk to the Avengers about is short and sweet. It's something to celebrate! Within their brand new Headquarters Max Lord stood in a brown suit and a checkered tie, a table laid out with food and drinks running the length of the wall to his side. ]

Now, I know we have a lot of Avengers business to discuss, especially since some of us were gone for most of the month. But that's not what we're here today for. But of course if you want to talk shop later I won't stop you.

I'd like to present you all with the newest addition to our team: please welcome Black Panther to the Avengers. I think we can all agree we had a few [ Er. ] holes to fill... and this is our guy. In fact, I think a few of you know each other already.

( I put up a few working subthreads but feel free to make your own! This is for mingling and working out fun team dynamics, do and talk about absolutely whatever you want to. c: )

We tried the jackets already. Didn't do anything for the brand.

[retconman]

I was thinking more in the way of new costumes. Jackets might be a little too flashy.

[latrodectus]

I don't know that they'd go for it.

[She's picturing a whole X-men matching jumpsuit thing, here.]

[retconman]

Iron Man already vetoed a new paint job.

[ Sighs. ]

Maybe it's just not the time.

[latrodectus]

You didn't try getting him to go black, did you?

[retconman]

Nothing so drastic. We didn't even discuss colors. [ He shrugs a little half-heartedly. ] And I'd have pushed for something more primary.

[latrodectus]

[Squinting.]

He'd look awful in blue.

[retconman]

Point taken. And I'm beginning to doubt the rest of the group will go for red and gold. Maybe I should consider something more neutral, like green, or pink. [ A pause. ] Purple.

[latrodectus]

That's a villain color. It would never work.

[Only appealing to Clint.]

[retconman]

I suppose I could shelve the idea for now. There are other ways to tailor a good image.

No pun intended.
