Master Bruce

Ultimate One Universe: Season Two

Looking back over applications whilst searching for new ones to approve and I manage to spot this...

Selina Kyle/The Black Cat - A mysterious femme fatale that works for Octavius for unknown reasons. A master thief and martial artist.

@HenryJonesJr

You got something to tell me, @HenryJonesJr?

Or should I say, "Mr. Steal Yo Girl"?

Also...

Doctor Strange is APPROVED, by the by. Good to have him back, @ErsatzEmperor.

Ultimate One Universe: Season Two

...112 posts since I was gone. You animals.

In any event. @Inkarnate's Huntress and @Bounce's Mordred are now eligible for approval. So with that said, they are.

Ultimate One Universe: Season Two

@Sep can't help playing a sexy character. That's just the burden he has to bear.

(On a serious note, I would actually like a team-up between the two as they're so diametrically opposed compared to Iris and Clark and Iris and Gwen. Not to mention the sheer possibilities of a Bat-rogue teaming up with a, well, Rogue-Rogue.)

Ultimate One Universe: Season Two

That said I would request of @AndyC that Iris and Clark have a chinwaggle. Maybe waggle someother things if ya know what I mean.

@Sep

I think you missed your boat, there, chief. Clark and Lois seem to have a serious committal going on, and I don't see Superman as the type to cheat.

(That said, Batman's single...)

And in response to your interaction question, boy, are you gonna love this season's MME. Gonna make The Surfer story from last season look like a small gathering of cosplayers compared to the sheer amount of epic.

Ultimate One Universe: Season Two

What you're saying is that maybe the real awards were the friends we made along the way?

@Morden Man

That, yes. Definitely that. Only with some touching/inspirational music behind it. And dancers all dressed in Batman-themed attire.

Ultimate One Universe: Season Two

So as our first Step Discussion, as awards last season weren't complete by all. What are you looking forward to this season? Not so much about your character but from the season as a whole, or from individual characters.

@Sep

Not to be a complete cheat about it, but my general hope for everyone is two things: to have fun, obviously, and to continue to build on their characters. Obviously given the Year One setting, most if not all of our characters grew last season from one person into another, and I can only hope that it goes an even extra step further, because there's nothing I like to read more than a journey of progression that makes a true character arc. I think that's more important, even, than completing a particular story arc. If your character has reached the other side a changed man/woman, you've done well.

Also @Lord Wraith more sex scenes plz.

MISSION REPORT: 16th SEPTEMBER 2018

SUBJECT:
Rogers, Steven G. (Designation: Captain America)

PERFORMANCE EVALUATION:
Despite Captain Rogers' advanced age, he retains the strength, speed, agility, and coordination of an Olympic-level athlete. Rogers retains endurance and durability that border on metahuman levels. Advanced cellar regeneration grants him extreme stamina and a limited healing factor. His mastery of countless fighting styles remains intact, as does his command and leadership. In short, he continues to be a peak physical specimen.

SUMMARY:
On the orders of Director Nicholas J. Fury, contact was made with Captain Rogers in Wyoming. Rogers was briefed on growing situation in Qurac -- i.e. the rise of the 'Liberators' behind Colonel Abdul al-Rahman, an extremist and recipient of unsanctioned Super-Soldier treatment. Owing to his existing relationship with Director Fury -- and his personal involvement in the events in Qurac (see CF92.08.17) -- Rogers assented to return to Washington and resume suspended status as active S.H.I.E.L.D. agent.

Rogers was introduced to Team 7. (Director's note: Rogers and D. Prince have preexisting relationship. Monitor carefully.) Following introductions, Team 7 was deployed in Quraci capital, Al-Doha. After subduing the insurgency in the capital, Rogers and team advanced on retrofitted munitions factory outside town. There, Rogers encountered Colonel al-Rahman and engaged target. Rogers was defeated, and Colonel al-Rahman escaped with small force of Liberators; remaining insurgents were taken into custody by Team 7.

Upon return to Washington, Rogers was placed on medical leave under the order of Director Fury. Team 7 conducted reconnaissance missions abroad in search of Colonel al-Rahman, but were unsuccessful. Washington came under attack by the remaining Liberators under the direction of Colonel al-Rahman; experimental resonance generators were used to generate destructive shockwaves in attempt to level the city. With Director Fury's blessing, Rogers returned to the field and orchestrated tactical response from available Team 7 members. Meanwhile, Rogers confronted Colonel al-Rahman at the Lincoln Memorial and again engaged target. With the help of S. Wilson (Designation: Falcon), Rogers subdued Colonel al-Rahman and brought end to immediate threat.

KNOWN ASSOCIATES:
Fury, Nicholas
Bordeaux, Sasha
Hill, Maria
Prince, Diana (Designation: Hoplite)
Wilson, Samuel (Designation: Falcon)
Barton, Clinton (Designation: Hawkeye)
Yamashiro, Tatsu (Designation: Katana)
Holt, Michael

RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):
Pending Director approval, Rogers may return to active duty with Team 7. Recommend continuation of field commander status, despite reservations of certain team member(s). Additionally, Rogers must be evaluated as potential asset for S.H.I.E.L.D.; his unique capabilities and extensive experience make him an excellent candidate for field work. With Rogers in the fold, S.H.I.E.L.D. can address problems and situations left unresolved by previous Director.

Beginning message... /

I don't have much time. There's more to this story than SHIELD is going to tell you. You may have already heard that what happened to Director Fury was the work of a "renegade agent." Don't listen. SHIELD is under attack, even if they're not ready to realize it. The enemy has eyes and ears everywhere -- even trusting you now is a big risk. But if you ARE one of the good ones, know that we're taking the fight to them. Together with Captain Rogers and the others, we ARE going to find justice for Director Fury. The enemy relies on fear. They know the power of a name.

Before this is done, they'll know our name, too.

@Eddie Brock

Actual footage of me trying to contain my excitement with the addition of that logo. Very well played, sir.

Approved!

Ultimate One Universe: Season Two

If we don't get a Calendar Man reference I swear. I swear to God, Bruce.

@Superboy

*jots down, pretends it was own idea*

I'm brilliant!

Ultimate One Universe: Season Two

Nah, I'm just messing with you.

Bruce is probably gonna get stabbed like 30 times that night by a variety of different Christmas themed muggers.

Ultimate One Universe: Season Two

Ohh, fun. Jaime gets to celebrate Christmas in the back of a van that doesn't have a properly working heater.



Merry Christmas everybody
