[ In this video is an examination table. On the examination video is something that might have been once Candy Deconnick. The green skin gives it away that it isn't her, but instead a Skrull. There are instruments around, and the lights are bright. There are some computers off to the far sides, but the screens aren't accessible at the moment. On the bottom right portion of the screen Tony pops up ala "picture in picture", and he points to the much larger frame. ]

This, ladies and gentlemen, is a Skrull. I know Jen spoke a little bit about it the other day, but I think it's important that everyone gets a good look at what they are after you kill them. Skrulls have an interesting part about their biology that they shape-shift, as I'm sure most of you have been informed. [ He stops gesturing now. ]

Skrulls are dangerous, period. I've had a little time with the body so far, but it's looking like they're the type that people from my world are most familiar with. [ He doesn't say it, but undetectable is what he's going for. ]

I'm in the Avengers Mansion. If you want a closer look, you're welcome to it. [ A pregnant pause. A very pregnant pause, and he finally speaks again. ] Anyone who wants a closer look is free to come down, but iIf you try and take it, or destroy it though, I wouldn't recommend trying. [ If you're a skrull..... 8| ] This is something I want everyone to see, whether through this, or in person. I'd be happy to give the knowledge we do have in the Skrull race.

If you have a knack with biology or scientific principles, I can also spread some of the data we do have. Or you can take a closer look and gather some of your own.

[klutziness]

Gross.

[liverletdie]

They're not so bad, when you get over the stink, and the green.

[voice, since megamind hasn't taken her comm away... yet]

[pluckyreporter]

While I doubt-- I, ah, would be of any use... scientifically, I'd appreciate any data I could gather for public awareness, getting more information out, Mr. Stark.

[She does, have all, have a Native viewership on the website, so that would go a long way into letting the common Cityzen know that weird shit was going on.]

voice

[liverletdie]

Ah. [ Considering. Tony doesn't think putting the average citizen onto high alert quite yet, he doesn't want to give them any excuse to mistrust the import populace any more than they already do, but at the same time, he doesn't want anyone getting into too much trouble. ]

I can provide you with a small packet of information to provide the people with. [ A pause. ] I don't think it should be something that can incite panic, if you understand me.

voice.

[alldeduction]

Ah, yes. So you are 'Mr. Stark.'.

Any data you have and time with the body would both be useful.

I'll need directions.

voice.

[liverletdie]

The one and only. We're at 809 Fifth avenue. The area's pretty easy to navigate.

voice, encrypted;

[incywincyhero]

Any powers, besides the obvious?

voice, encrypted;

[liverletdie]

None that I can tell so far.

Voice

[wind_dancer]

Have there been any sign of the super skrulls?

Voice

[liverletdie]

No, this is the only skrull we've seen.

permavideo;

[invisibly]

I'd like to take a closer look at it, if you don't mind.

[liverletdie]

Of course. Do you know how to get here?

voice

[couldbeavoided]

Is that really a good idea? Showing it off like that?

voice

[liverletdie]

No, not really. However, I think we're going to run into a problem if we're the only people who's ever gotten a good, detailed look at one.

[ A small pause. ] I'm not going to let anyone get away with doing anything with it. Although if you want to help watch over the body with me, I'd welcome it.

[hacktivist]

I'll come by and look at your notes. [for all his rudimentary knowledge, Ghost stayed out of the invasion back at home, and everything he knows is secondhand.] When is a good time?

[this is him trying (and maybe failing??) to be properly socialized. He's rusty.]

video;

[liverletdie]

[ A pause. Oh Ghost. ]

You can come by any time, Ghost. I'll give you what I can.

action because i can

[gammas]

[ knock knock on the wall and she's kind of just. standing at the door, arms crossed and watching ]

Find out anything useful?

action!

[liverletdie]

[ He looks back, and shakes his head. ]

They're the same as back home. Undetectable.

video;

[boozebot]

Neat!

[Bender takes a picture through the communicator, just because he can.]

Hey, wait! Does this mean we're getting invaded? Because I left my invasion kit in the future.

video;

[liverletdie]

[ Blink, blink. ]

I wouldn't jump to any conclusions yet, Bender.

[bests]

So the autopsy is going fairly well?

video, encrypted;

[liverletdie]

As well as can be expected, I'm afraid. No new data.

[video]

[sorcerersupreme]

Regrettable. I have no doubt that this will lead to the same ridiculous paranoia as the crisis in our home universe.

[video]

[liverletdie]

Hopefully, we can avoid that. [ Somehow ]

[video]

[trueltning_fury]

...I will be by later today.

[video]

[liverletdie]

Of course.

[notpredictable]

Directions! Make it snappy please, no time to waste!

[liverletdie]

In a hurry?

809 Fifth avenue. It has a big "A" on it, hard to miss.

video;

[maggotbone]

Oh my~

Did you take this one down yourself, Tony?

video;

[liverletdie]

No, not quite. I just got to pick it up.

[mylensisonyou]

[That is really pretty gross. Cool, but very much gross.]

So like, these things can look like anybody? Going around and pretending to be them?

[liverletdie]

Unfortunately, yes. They can. That's why they're so dangerous.

[comesback]

Hope you don't mind if I stop by, handsome. This is kind of my job.

[liverletdie]

[ IGNORING THAT ] Not at all. If you have experience, maybe there's insight you can offer me.

(voice.)

[ioudas]

Please don't take this the wrong way, but I really want to see these. [there is so much glee in his voice.]

(voice.)

[liverletdie]

[ A moment. ] You even sound excited.

(voice.)

[joanie]

Please be careful around those things.

(voice.)

[liverletdie]

Don't worry about me, beautiful. I've had a bit of time to get used to these "things", as you call them.

[voice | Batcomm | attempted encryption!]

[batmantled]

I'll take a look, if you're willing to pass on the locale.

[ voice | starkcryption! ]

[liverletdie]

809 Fifth Avenue. You really can't miss it.

[meowminx]

You know we had a few here before who weren't actually bad, right?

[liverletdie]

I'm well aware. They're a severe, very severe minority of the race, I'm afraid.

video;

[hypos]

Any chance that data you're offerin' includes directions to the Mansion?

video;

[liverletdie]

It does, actually. 809 Fifth Avenue. It's relatively easy to get to.

voice

[scarabsuited]

[once we get over the initial gross factor, at least...blugh.

unnerved, but:] Think you can send me what data you got on-file for them to me and Scarab?

voice

[liverletdie]

I can swing it your way, I think.

voice

[remarkablyspry]

Oh, my... [THIS IS UNSETTLING.]

I'm terribly sorry, Mister Stark. I'm afraid I don't quite understand everything that's going on! Am I to assume we're to anticipate an alien attack?

voice

[liverletdie]

Maybe, maybe not. This is a skrull, though, and they aren't exactly well known for being friendly.

voice

[latrodectus]

Are you going to try to sleep with this one, too?

voice

[liverletdie]

Please, Natasha! It's dead, I'm not that depraved or desperate.
