[center] If the name ‘LexCorp’ didn’t set off alarm bells in Otto’s head, the guards with rifles at low ready certainly did. The more things change…[/center] [center] However, there was a more pressing issue: Otto’s pride had just been slighted by a mere mercenary. [/center] [center] Spider-Man hard pivoted towards the arrived rifleman. “Do consider that you do not know any of us before you judge us as only above average. While I cannot attest to many in this room, but I can [i]assure[/i] you I am more than capable.” [/center] [center] Now, to the problem at hand.[/center] [center] Otto walked up to the desk, slipping between members if needed, and took a seat if he could find it. If not, he stood with his arms folded behind his back. “Mr. Luthor, I would also like to know how you tranquilized me, what that entails, and what you would have us do for you. Don’t worry about any danger, I assure you that I can keep the more violent of us all at bay so there will be nothing to worry about in regards to, say, calling in any guard force that may be outside of the door.” [/center] [center] The last part was punctuated by a loose gesture to the door that said guards were stacked up on, but was [b]only said so that Lex could hear Otto, because Otto knew better than to rile the crowd.[/b] Of course, the fact he knew was a card in Octavius’ hand that he anticipated Luthor would not want to let him play.

I believe I have a few things you would want me to share with you.” [/center] [center] [@Thatguyinastore] [@Lazaro1505] [/center]
