[video] Wild Tiger's comm

[the video snaps on to an EXTREME CLOSEUP of Wild Tiger, visor raised, his expression teetering between a stupid grin and a rather proud, heroic look.]

Good evening, City, and welcome to a special edition of HeroTV, just for you!

[wow he’s never done that before. It feels great. He pulls back so he can aim the video at the important part of the scene: the back of an office chair. Spidey’s leaning on the smooth leather top.]

We bring you this little bit of breaking news...

...as some of you may remember, Tiger and I’ve been keeping our ears to the ground looking for the guy who sold laser weapons to Phantasm -- or those crazy kids pretending to be Phantasm, anyway.

[Spidey steps back enough that he can spin the chair around to reveal...

One David Xanatos, webbed into the seat.
]

Ladies and gents, someone’s been a naughty, naughty boy.

[Xanatos himself is obviously annoyed by this, but manages to keep a relatively neutral tone.]

Patronizing me? I expected something a bit more mature, Spider-Man.

I’d pretend to be offended, but honestly, have even you met me?

Guys, come on. [he wants some camera time, too] We did our homework and found someone who could tell us where they got the weapons. Turns out it’s this guy.

To the best of my knowledge, there isn’t anything illegal about selling weapons to private citizens. [even though they may not have been the most legal of channels...it’s a good thing he’s keeping up that poker face.]

Oi, did you even do background checks on those guys? Considering they shot at us?!

Next time, I’ll make sure the checks are more thorough

Background che -- background checks?! [Unimpressed Spidey is unimpressed.] Hello, lasers.

Yeah, lasers! And that’s why we’re bringing you in, for weapons violations all over the place. [not that he’s an expert. That’s for the lawyers. He peers into the camera again] Can you believe this guy? Thugs pretending to be part of Phantasm get his weapons and he doesn’t even care.

Yeah, it’s almost like he’s an evil mastermind selling laser guns or something.

[Now THAT gets a small chuckle.] Evil mastermind? A bit too cliche, don’t you think? I’m a businessman, nothing more.

Yeah, and that’d be the standard evil mastermind alibi right there.

The police are on their way, so you can tell it to them when they get here. [a wink for the camera. Cliche lines are so smoooth] Never let anybody say heroes don’t do anything useful around here.

[he taps his finger to his visor] ...Wild Tiger, over and out!



[ooc: oops! right! greenish is Wild Tiger, red is Spider-man, and blue is Xanatos. Just in case!]

Thanks, lady with the rad mask.

[Beat.] Just how much spirit gum do you go through in a week, just out of professional curiosity?
amiga: (ʜuɴʈʀɛʂʂ ✜ firing at the ones who run)

[personal profile] amiga 2013-07-16 08:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Huntress. Just Huntress.

And it's more than I'd care to admit. It all adds up at the end of the week. Sometimes I wonder how I don't go broke with this gig.
incywincyhero: (spidey: oy vey)

[personal profile] incywincyhero 2013-07-16 08:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Nice to meetcha, Huntress. The name's Spider-Man, but I answer to most things that aren't "menace" or "eight-eyes."

Boy, do I hear you on that. The costs in webbing alone...
amiga: (ʜuɴʈʀɛʂʂ ✜ there's a shewolf in disguise)

[personal profile] amiga 2013-07-17 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
And the same to you, Spider-Man. That's quite a moniker you've got there. Do you spin actual web?
incywincyhero: (spidey: quippage)

[personal profile] incywincyhero 2013-07-17 10:05 pm (UTC)(link)
In any size.

Well, I dunno whether you'd call it "actual web" or not. It's a little early in the day to get existential.
amiga: (ʜuɴʈʀɛʂʂ ✜ coming out coming out)

[personal profile] amiga 2013-07-17 10:07 pm (UTC)(link)
That must come in handy. Or maybe it's just sticky and inconvenient.

Hey, did I ask you whether you trip over your cape? No, because even though I secretly wonder, I know we're both professionals here -- not that I ever get paid, but in spirit -- and I respect that.

... Though, seriously. Have you ever tripped over your cape?
amiga: (ʜuɴʈʀɛʂʂ ✜ heh)

[personal profile] amiga 2013-08-03 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
Not since I was a little cub.
incywincyhero: (spidey: quippage)

[personal profile] incywincyhero 2013-08-03 10:11 pm (UTC)(link)
"Cub." What, you were bitten by a radioactive human?
amiga: (ʜuɴʈʀɛʂʂ ✜ hay gurl hay)

[personal profile] amiga 2013-08-05 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
It refers to the whole huntress angle I'm working, naturally. Big cats, cubs, et cetera.
incywincyhero: (spidey: over the wall)

[personal profile] incywincyhero 2013-08-17 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, so... like a lioness, not the whole schtick with the riding boots and animal cruelty.
amiga: (ʜuɴʈʀɛʂʂ ✜ and i'm her student)

[personal profile] amiga 2013-08-19 03:22 am (UTC)(link)
Animal cruelty? From me? Heavens no, I'd never hurt a flea.
incywincyhero: (spidey: thwak!)

[personal profile] incywincyhero 2013-08-21 10:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Fleabags, though?
amiga: (ɧɛɭɛɳɑ ✜ you ain't gonna get too far)

[personal profile] amiga 2013-08-21 11:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Those fellas better watch out. I don't go easy on them.
