Rocket followed the various conversations, keeping to himself for the most part.
Iron Fist:
*Our furry friend Rocket may be trying at times, but he's no fool. I'm sure there's a very good reason he's treating that cold-blooded murderer, Bullseye, like an old friend.*
'Because he sorta is? I wonder if that guy is gullible or got a sixth sense on reading people.'
Bullseye:
"some Fake Spider-Man croaked the egghead first and didn't even cash in."
'I might have three to keep track of? What a mess.' ((You have no idea. :3 ))
Polaris:
*What if Bullseye is here because they’re expecting Captain America?*
'Is space cold? He's here to kill somebody, and on government pay.'
Polaris:
"I can’t promise I won’t toss him into the East River."
Rocket will snicker at that line. If Bullseye gives him a suspicious glance, he'll shrug and point at his ear.
'If I had money to lose, I'd waste it on seeing that.'
Iron Fist:
"Believe me, he's worth making an exception for."
'You could say that again. Shame that's what he wants today.'
Spider-Woman:
*Apparently their Gwen is... complicated.*
'Wonder when I should mention I figured out where their copies are.'
ZA WARUDO!:
It's getting late. The Sun is setting.
Rocket stretches his arms out.
"Sorry, team had like, three good plans to get rid of you, and one was funny enough to pay for. You don't need me to say Rand sees you as a liability. You obviously won't like hearing it, but I got a word of advice. This team's not messing around, and you'd be best invested playing by our rules this time. I'd hate to lose one of my only Earth friends. I played nice and drew a very thin line on dead. I don't care if those capes can never walk again, but dead is off the table. Past that, I need a promise or you're not gonna like that I'm the weakest link in this crew. That said, if that plan don't work, my 'Plan B' is buying enough drinks for you to miss a shift tomorrow. My boss's treat. When are ya off duty? I'd love to spend money that isn't mine.
Rocket decides this would be a good a time as any to share some bad news. He informs the team of his more relevant bullet points attempting the telepathic link.
*In this world, Wade can survive getting shot in the head, Funnybone goes by Ghost Rider and sounds like he won't be here, Tigro is a female in town right now that is likely to be involved, and Sue Richards is at Mercy waiting for a 'Johnny' to wake up, but I'd put money on her getting involved if things get loud. I'm gonna try and keep pressing Bullseye here out of liability range, so I'll be late assuming ya don't call me. And if things get fun, do call me.*
((He'll figure out the whole 'sleeping' thing later. Now, he's gotta buy himself some new complications for Bullseye. Unrelated, almost posted this in the wrong thread. <_<; ))
((EDIT: Emotional damage!
00:16, Today: Rocket rolled 3,5,2,3 using d8,d6,d6,d6 with rolls of 3,5,2,3. Convince Bullseye to play by our rules.
Total: 11 Effect d6
Unlikely Allies d8 + Duty d6 + Psych d8 + Relations: Bullseye d6 + Aww! (d8 to d6 +1PP)
