[ Video turns on. Don't worry, this will be brief, City. ]

In honor of the united effort that is being made to combine each of our respective manpower into an organized, collaborative effort, and as a follow-up to my words at last night's event, I wanted to announce that for the next two weeks, I personally am opening up Avengers membership to those who have wanted to dedicate themselves to helping the City and its people, but lacked the individual resources to do so.

Even those who may not be suited for the regular offensive (or defensive, as the case may be) conflicts that the team ordinarily handles may still wear the title of Honorary Avenger, because I, Norman Osborn -- and my team -- fully support and encourage every effort, even from those of you who make a difference on a smaller, or perhaps less noticeable scale. This doesn't even have to be a long-term commitment [ he pauses ] though it's not out of the question, if everyone is happy with the arrangements as they are; just an outreach to strengthen our own community in these unsettling times.

Thank you, and God bless.

Apologies for my absence; I'm sure we have much to still go over about your membership, don't we? Don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions. Has Victoria given you a tour of the Tower?

[ ENCRYPTED to Dr. Horrible ]

Doctor. I hear you've expressed interest in becoming an Avenger, as well? I'm willing to offer you a chance, if that wasn't already made clear: though I'm curious about what skills you have beyond R&D.

[ ENCRYPTED to Invincible ]

I heard you had a concern. How may I address that?

(OOC: The responses from all interested parties regarding membership will be automatically encrypted; just procedure, of course.)

And I suppose you're not the type that enjoys guessing games?

Only ones I can win.

Well, here's a sneak peak: It's indestructible.

And a hint: Only I can guess what someone will do or say when bound.

I'm not good at this whole mysterious thing. I'm an open book, so...

[ Sounds amused. ]

But that's part of your charm.

It sounds enticing.

It is! If it's a surprise, maybe it will impress you more, though.

Say, Mr. Osborn, did you happen to know my sister while she was here?

Highly likely. Though I don't always take kindly to surprises.

Who was your sister?

I only give good surprises, though.

Princess Diana. Wonder Woman? Amazon Warrior? A friend of mine at this place mentioned she was here a while back.

Princess Diana. [ ... Pause. ]

No, I didn't know any Wonder Womans, unfortunately; she must have been before my time here. A pity, it sounds like I would have liked her.

That's too bad, I think she would have liked you, too! [ LOLOLOLOL ]

Ah well.

Oh well.
