Reality was going to be repaired and she would be dead again - these were the precious few moments that they would be able to have together. And while she was certain she would see Carolina again, October did not want to waste the gift of time that had been afforded to her. Not everyone in the world was so fortunate as to see their lost love once more. [color=cc33ff]"Ally, don't call him Mr. Stark - at least not when he's wasted,"[/color] Guin commented. She hated seeing her father like this, a drunken mess scrambling to get to his feet. It reminded her too much of her own struggles with addiction and the potential wired into her genetic code to become a slave to booze and drugs once more. She winced as her father continued to drink, even with what was at stake. She hadn't seem him like this in ages, at least not in the real world. Here, her father's alcoholism was a normal sight... It broke her heart slightly. All of his progress was gone, his bad habits back in control thanks to Wanda Maximoff. She had more options here though to help him. Figuring that she could try dumping a bucket of water on him second, Guin put a hand to her forehead and she tapped into her father's brain. Guin couldn't help but feel a bit sick as she did her very best to sober him up, using a great deal of mental strength in the process but she managed to pull it off. However, her nose was bleeding and she felt incredibly dizzy. [color=cc33ff]"Okay, Iron Man is sober - let's get him the hell away from the booze and go back to your base. I think we've probably got enough to go up against Wanda now."[/color] [color=7ea7d8]"Guina, don't hurt yourself,"[/color] Pietro said, going over and steadying her. Novikova rolled her eyes, hardly surprised by Tony's state. She was being mentored by Dr. Pym, working for him at Pym Tech after being fired from S.H.I.E.L.D. - and so when it came to the Pym-Stark rivalry, she was firmly Team Pym. When she saw Tony Stark, she saw a drunk playboy resting on the laurels of his father, unaware of the impact his actions had on the lives of others. She believed Pym when he told her that she should never trust a Stark - they were all vain and corrupt, even lying in bed with terrorists such as Quicksilver. Runa stepped through the portal to Stark Tower after closing the one in the Baxter Building to the Human Resistance HQ, bringing Lance along with her before closing that portal. She was feeling very tired and drained, but her work wasn't done yet. They had gotten Stark on their side from what she could tell and Runa took a breath, before opening a portal from Stark Tower to the Human Resistance HQ. They would be able to see Niah and the others on the other side. [color=#a81a75]"Please, step on through - this is tiring,"[/color] Runa asked. [color=add3ff]"If you fuck this up, Stark..."[/color] Novikova warned, before stepping through Runa's portal and arriving at the Human Resistance Headquarters. She looked around quickly, hoping to see Maria but there was no sign of her. She must not have returned yet from New Orleans. It wasn't that surprising, the New York group definitely seemed to have the more stable and competent of the two ex-Asgardian witches. She crossed her arms and went over to an open space, leaning up against the wall as she watched Sapphire tend to Niah. Despite her cool exterior, Novikova really did hope she was okay. Guin then went through the portal, holding her nose in an effort to stop the bleeding. Once everyone was on through, Runa would then go through herself and close the portal, only to open one to the LeBeau Casino in New Orleans. It was time for the entire team to be reunited into one gigantic force.[hr][hr][center][h3][b][color=DBA1DE]Casper Theriot[/color][/b][/h3][img]https://i.postimg.cc/MZf2fx7b/image.gif[/img][hr][hr][b][color=DBA1DE]Location:[/color][/b] the LeBeau Casino - New Orleans [b][color=DBA1DE]Skills:[/color][/b] Mediumship[hr][/center] Casper couldn't help but pause for a moment and wonder if this was why there weren't more superhero team ups. It was getting pretty exhausting to go around explaining everything to everyone all of the time. Could this be the source of the rivalry between the Avengers and the X-Men - an unwillingness to spend more than a few seconds explaining the situation at hand? His train of thought was derailed by a feeling of almost dizzying happiness as James called him by his mutant name - he rarely used the moniker, but he was just giddy hearing it from his boyfriend's mouth. [color=DBA1DE]"I don't know if I could call it my turf, I don't have any memories of this world but... I did spend my teenage years growing up in New Orleans,"[/color] he admitted with a sheepish shrug. [color=DBA1DE]"You're fantastic at motivational speaking, Max,"[/color] Casper quipped with a slight smirk. [i]"He fucking sucks at it,"[/i] Ben complained. [color=DBA1DE]"It's called sarcasm, Benjamin,"[/color] Casper reminded him, trying to ruffle the ghost's head only for his arm to pass straight through. Ben recoiled slightly, never enjoying the sensation of having someone living go through him - especially if it was Casper. The inside of his mouth always seemed to taste like a Sephora store afterwards. Casper couldn't help but notice that his brother was more than a little bit tense, snapping at Anastasia. He vaguely recalled that she was a part of the Hellfire Club, but Casper was willing to work with his father's students and he had far more beef with them at the end of the day, so he didn't say much. [color=DBA1DE]"Jackie... If you want to go and spend some time with your kid before this all turns back... I don't think anyone would blame you,"[/color] Casper mentioned, guessing as to what was wrong. A portal then appeared to the Human Resistance HQ and Runa was on the other side. [color=#a81a75]"If you're here to bring down the King, come on through - we're ready to fight."[/color]
