The barbarian started to distort almost like a corrupted photo before transforming back into Kent. After standing back up he took a deep breath. "Well when I cut loose I can become an avatar of heroes gifted with incredible physical abilities". 

She looked to the Avatar guy. "So The wisdom of Solomon, the strength of Hercules, the stamina of Atlas, the power of Zeus, the courage of Achilles and the speed of Mercury type thing?" she asked casually as she leaned against the wall observing the room.

Octavius listened with crossed arms. Magic? Heart of Hearts? Tetris? He was surrounded by fools. Several of the people here were clearly deranged and some that weren't hardly seemed to know their own abilities. "Damn you all, just what have I gotten into?" he grumbles to himself. The doctor chooses to quietly seethe and observe, otherwise volunteering no personal information. "Patience," he mutters darkly to no one as snakelike arms sway near his head, watching. Listening. "When the time come's, they'll see. They'll all see."

Williams looked at Bloodrager shook his head and gave a smile.
Listen. I am not asking everyone to break laws in the way you are thinking. If you or anyone here are not comfortable with something I ask of you that is fine. All I am saying is that there may be times that asking authorities for some information may not be enough, So a few people here have underground connections and ways of getting possible information that the police may not have in ways we cannot do it normally, Like Bribery, hacking,  or breaking into places we would not be allowed, Now I am sure most of you have already done that to some extent. I am not asking the team to completely ignore the law. 
He says hoping to reassure a few of the members that seemed to be taken by surprise.

He heard Oct mutter and knew this was not what Doc liked, William figured this was a good time to get his mind back onto what he liked doing to keep his mind busy.

William hadn’t had the chance to work with or study Bloodrager much, but he was starting to understand. He had items taken away when he came to S.H.I.E.L.D, it now made sense, Each item was a part of each personality. Hopefully Doc could sort it out.

No need to worry Bloodrager, your gear is fine, They are here in Doc Oct’s Lab and are available to you at any time you need them. He looked over to Doc and nudged his head to indicate to Doc that he could head out with Bloodrager and start with his studying him.

You can go with Doc and he can show you and work with you. As for the rest of you the base is intended to be your “home”. he added the air quotes.

He pressed a button on his watch and a map  appeared on the large TV in the common room.

There are bedrooms to the north and south of the base. Pick which ever ones you want. Doc we set you up in the Bio-Engineering room. You are all free to explore the base at your leisure and get familiar with your surroundings.

Williams looked around the room again. I need to go to my office so if anyone needs me my door is always opened.



**OOC** I will start to set up the boards for the rooms. Should have them up in a few. You can continue here for now until they are up.

After the big gathering was done she headed to the elevator again. "Ok Robowoman. Send the elevator up. I think we're done now."she said crossing her arms and waiting for it. "Home" pssshh more like a Prison. She closed her eyes beneath her mask and tapped her foot.

The big red man regarded William inscrutably as the luminescence of his ring jolted back to a bright, fully-limned glow. It would likely have taken a telepath to sense Sword of Cup's despair deep inside the body as he was shoved aside and denied any free will as Heart of Heart's old habits kicked him into absolute subordination again.

His expression blank and emotionless once more, he turned to face Otto, awaiting instructions or someplace to follow him to.

"Not quite familiar with that statement Harbinger" said Kent. Turning to William "How much down time do we have before our first mission"?

Jocasta’s holographic image appears on the elevator’s small LCD screen. Of Course Harbinger. <pink> as you hear the elevator in motion. The doors open and set for you to enter.

William watched as the group started to disperse. He looked  as Harbinger headed out again. Silently hoping she wasn’t going to be an issue,

Looking over to Kent I have some files to go over tonight and see where we can start. I am hoping to get you all into the field as soon as possible. But nothing is set in stone.

Norman Osborn smiled at the thought of taking part in a dorm room lifestyle, instead of one of his homes or luxury apartments.

"It'll be just like camping," he mused. "Or prison!"

To Naslund, he said, "Sounds like a plan, chief! If we're done here, I'm going to go explore and claim my room before all the good ones are taken! Anybody want to come with?"

Harbinger walked into the elevator. "To the lobby." she said figuring pressing buttons was pointless when an AI was in charge. She leaned against the wall of the elevator and took a breath .

In reply to Green Goblin (msg # 79):

"Sure, why not?" Kevin replied. "But if it turns out we're cellmates, I call the top bunk."

"Perhaps a home away from home.." Witch remarked. She wasn't sure how sold everyone was about dropping their lives, leases, and luxuries to stay at this facility. Despite William's obvious efforts to make it accommodating, the building felt more like a barack or a secret base. Maybe once the team was engaged with the purpose of the task force, staying onsite would feel less out of place.

Clearly torn on what to do next, Galina looked around at the others. Meet the famous Dr. Octavius, study Darkstar's ability, reflect on the new relationships, eat BBQ.. it was hard to pick. After a moment, she decided to go with the tour. Everything else could be done afterward, but a tour with first-time impressions was only going to happen once.

Standing up, she set her broom behind her and leaned onto it before both herself and the broom rose a few inches. Floating over the couch, she hovered towards Green Goblin and Darkstar. "Lead on my fellow flyers!" She said with a smile.

Kent nodded his head in acknowledgement and left with the crew to check out their new home.

In reply to Green Goblin (msg # 79):

"I'll check out the place, I just hope the rooms here are better than the dorm I'm in right now," Spider-Man says now that they're all free to explore for the moment.

In reply to William Naslund (msg # 73):

Doctor Octopus leaves the room with a curt nod to the others and makes his way to the BIO-Research room. There was much to prepare for the work ahead. He saw an opportunity to study not only his assigned subject, but all of those assembled. He smiled at the thought of what secrets their abilities may hold.

Following the limb-enhanced Doctor, Bloodrager looked at pretty much everything on the way to the lab, even though this wasn't a dungeon to beware of traps and ambushes in.

-----> to BIO-Research Room with Dr. Octopus

Two stood like a stump for a moment, processing what the others had said and trying to match the face, or mask, with the power provided. After a moment's hesitation, Ai followed Harbinger into the elevator. She didn't say anything right yet, but she also wanted to see what would come of it. Not to mention she'd come there by jet. checking it out from street level down seemed prudent.

Inside The elevator her costume shifted from her vigilante suit to a black skirt, sneakers, and a black hoodie. "Expects met to live with that creep like a trained dog. I'm my own person. I'll work with them but like hell I'll live here homes are for idiots." she muttered to herself.

"He is pretty abrasive." Ai agreed from their faint encounter. She glanced over at Harbinger. Ai's look was curious, possibly looking for something. Though not quite sure what. Two assumed that anything else she might say at that particular moment would probably not go for the best. At least not in the direction she wished to go. So like any positive person would do, she changed the subject.

"Is there anything you enjoy when you're not- uh, working?" Ai asked, hoping to find common ground or at least, get a hint of a smile out of the other woman.

She passed and turned towards the other woman. "I use stolen money to help street kids get food , clothing, Occasionally I threaten a doctor if they need medical treatment. Other than helping kids and killing monsters on youtube no. I have nothing else in my life. No true friends. No true family. No lovers. No home. I don't live for myself. I devote every waking moment to my calling and plenty of my unconscious moments too. " she answered calmly.

The Doors Open to reveal the first floor you had originally entered earlier that day, As you pass the Desk a Panel opens up.

Hello Ladies, William advised me that you left and he did not have time to give you a com system. She says to Harbinger and Two. Jocasta points to the panel.
Inside lay  2 2" circular plain looking discs with the initial TF on it.
If you no longer need any guidance or info then I hope you have a great day/

She took her Comm and headed out of the building and onto the streets shifting her civilian attire as she vanished among people. Just another forgettable face in the city. She headed out to find herself.

To: Her Solo thread.

Two blinked, somewhat at a loss for words. Once she watched her walk away from the open elevator, Ai let go of a breath she hadn't known she was holding. "That's pretty sad." Ai said to herself more than anyone else. Two's heart went out to Harbinger, but didn't know how she could possibly help her, or even if she wanted to be helped.

"...Thanks." Two offered to Jocasta as Harbinger was already long gone.
