This replies above me need better comments. They're too plain and there's not enough passive-aggressiveness.
Having @Byrd Man call you a detective... there's no higher honour.
So, assuming it's not an individual from one of the two teams that never happened (Runaways and X-Factor), that leaves Hawkeye or Nova. Technically could also be Sentry, but ew. Or Kamala Kahn, but that seems unlikely. My bet is on Nova.
Alright! So, I'm honing in a few character ideas, but first I had an RPG etiquette question for the class:
One of my character choices is another player's (inactive) concept. I've sent them a PM about it, but it doesn't appear they've been active on the Guild in a while. How many of y'all would move ahead with the CS anyway, and how many of y'all would wait/move on to a different character? As it is, applying without permission feels a bit like hitting on a buddy's ex-girlfriend to me...
