"We always were Dear Sister. It is just more obvious now. The problem is between Collector and Grandmaster, they are keeping balance. The big Gods look on and they see enough mix of Order and Chaos to not freak out and stop this. Even the bloody Tribunal looks down and says it is good." Jamie leaned back. "The Gods always watch Banner, but they don't help much. The price of free will. We should be glad it wasn't bloody Champion, otherwise your boy'd be stuck as Hulk, wrestling with the Blood Brothers for life or something equally stupid." "Besides, it would be more a few false cures, getting captured at least once, rejecting a cure at least once to become the Hulk and save at least one loved one...before the end." A small man in a chauffeur suit whoa Hat Bill Read D.O.A. stepped up. "Ok, are we all ready to roll." He said with an eerie grin. "Yeah, but it bothers me... what if the cure is... nothing else than death itself?" asked Psylocke. "Who am I to argue? It's been ten years since I've lived with my horrible curse... if someone has mercy enough to think it's relief time... then I should accept it." said David. "I've already lost ten years of my life... I already feel dead. Lost my first wife... my research partner... my second wife... my most recent fiancée thinks my other half killed me like most of the world does... it never stops." Banner's wrinkled, older, slightly grey-haired appearance was proof that he needed a way to get out of everything. "<The fuck?>" uttered Natasha in Russian as she saw the chauffeur. "Who is the driver?" asked Psylocke. |

"I can speak for myself. I am D.O.A., the loyal aide to Emplate, who is among those taken in by Krakoa, as my master seeks to keep our hunger under control. I admit...we've also been cozying up to the Hellfire Club...but mostly to see who we can get to jump ship to Krakoa as...it is a good deal." If the got a look at the palms of his hands, they would see toothy mouths.
"We still got our seats to the club, eh Betsy? Maybe this is a sign that we need to make calls?" Jamie asked. "Dad was sitting open the seats of the British branch. I imagine Brian inherited that. Also..." Jamie reached over and smacked David upside the head. "Enough of that bollocks. If a loon like me can conquer death and madness, why can't a guy like you sort himself out, eh? Look at these guys...hated for a war they never fought in, running 24/7 from people who would kill 'em over helpin' them, only finding help in bloody Victor Von Doom in new Silver duds. They're the same as you...only they was born with their Hulks. You think all this is...happenstance? This is the show...and this is the part where the hero finds hope again. They found you...to help yer arse Davey Boy."
Xi'an looked at him. "I have been both hero and villain, healer and destroyer. I do have my own Hulk Dr. Banner. My one hand...I could possibly even be a destroyer of the Hulk. But I do not kill unless it is deserving, and if you deserve to die for your wrongs...then may whatever lies above kill me first. For I didn't have the excuse of the Hulk. Even if i were to ignore my time in the Theater, chalking that up to loss of control. My time in the Lawless was damning enough. And yet, Charles Xavier knows of me...and did not send people to punish me for it. I am worthy. How can a man more innocent than I not be?"
"I would have to join you. I chose to be in the Theater..." La Lunaticia said.
"And I was right there in Alchemax...knowing my work was being abused." Henri hung his head.
"I already died for mine, not all it's cracked up to be. Plus, you factor in coming back as a viable fate...what does it solve? David...you don't deserve death fer what you have been through." Jamie got up, walked over...and hugged him. "You just need some bloody understanding on how rough you had it mate. You need people to do that fer ya."
"You do not know borders, do you?" Skullfire said.
"My power means that I got none, save others like me hornin' in." Jamie laughed.
"Can't argue there...though I do have to agree. I was dead before too. It just felt...empty." Skullfire said.
"Forget if there even was a sense of peace, but...you cannot give up. I...I don't help those who are bad Dr. Banner. I am a hero of freedom to Tierra Verde, and I pray some day Cuba, my homeland. I don't think even the Hulk is bad. I have seen mutants who struggle with animal sides and such things and...all they need is help and understanding. Same has to be the case with you." La Bandera spoke up.

La Bandera spoke up. "So... we're VIP members? Nice." said Psylocke to Jamie. Banner hugged Jamie back. "Thank you... you truly do understand me." said Banner. "I just... I guess I'm just... tired... been too long since I lived like a normal human." "Your sentiments are the same as mine, David. My Mr. Hyde is much more annoying as yours. I have the wrath of God in a freaking bottle." said Blake. "I have to be conscious whenever my Hyde is around and it just drives me nuts." Thor just glanced at Blake. "I don't think I like to be referred to as Mr. Hyde, Blake." said Thor. |

"I do have to say, some of us can still live and be monsters at the same time." D.O.A. showed off his hand. "Me and mine have gotten power at a price from our master...and yet here I am, not giving in to a hunger Sirs and Madams. It's all about finding peace with yourself and letting yourself be what you can be. All that army speak, only applied to the real life. Be all you can and that." He chuckled. "If a squat little ghoul's input means anything. Now if you'll excuse me...I need to see how this baby rolls." He went back into the front.
"Interesting company." Cerebra said.
"Can you blame us for a high intake of what would be ne'er do 'ells? Krakoa is the hope they wished for all along, a place where they can just be accepted for being born. Now I wager some might slip...but this is their chance to prove that all they wanted was normalcy. Best way to sift through that is give all a chance and see who cracks. Sinister makes non thinkin' clones of off willing volunteers for any mutant type who needs others to feed off of. Give the people a reason to play ball...and all that is left is personal choice." Jamie explained. "Even ones who might have seemingly gone to far from their powers. Mgiht not really be their fault. Just...victims of a society that could not understand of facilitate their needs."

Psylocke scratched her chin. "So... a utopic paradise for mutants?" uttered Psylocke. "However, I'm curious... if there has to be balance according to god-like beings, how the hell did the higher powers of order and chaos allowed that to come to life? Did Sinister silently go 'fuck this' and did it behind their backs? Or is it because... ratings?" There was an awkward moment of silence until Black Widow spoke up. "Now I am starting to feel more and more expendable. How can people think of us as just statistics for ratings?" said Black Widow. |

"You ain't gonna. That never goes over well." Jamie said to Black Widow. "And our Xavier and Apocalypse already did it in their world. On the one hand, yes it is a test to see if they can do it better on Mojovision. One the other hand...Betsy, what do you think is happening with the mutant hate groups. You don't think they are not getting an influx of new guys too? Mojo II is a bloody dick. And because that is the rules of the Mojoverse. They think we're perverse for just treating the telly as a hobby and not a way of life."

"Fuck... if only there was a way to shove a boot into that spineless fat slug's ass... if he even has one." said Psylocke. "He is the fuckin' perverse guy... watches waaaay too much TV." "Have to live with it." said Blake. "Yes... but who says I have to like it. I mean... isn't even my private life private anymore?" said Psylocke. |

"They don't watch everything. Besides...he's actually keeping Grandmaster in check. What would you rather be, a TV show character or kept in storage until your time t' have a death match with a friend, winner gets t' say as a playin' piece?" Jamie looked at him. "Grandmaster would turned us all into a big ol' fighting game. Mojo is givin' us a chance here actually. Hate to say it, but we owe 'im."
"I am glad these guys were leaving us alone in my time. How do you put up with it?" Krystalin said.
"A good brandy." Jamie replied.

"Well, anyway... you do have a point." said Psylocke. "But still... can't bring myself to like it." |

"I get it. You would rather be free. Well this is still some sort of game, and once over...they will do something else. Likely more low key as...anything can be overdone." Jamie stood up. "So play to win Mr. Blake. Give them a reason to let your show retire as a fond memory as it were. They can watch your reruns and be content then."
"That...actually is sound advice. If you lay down and die or fight back, that is provocation. And do it for you, not them." Xi'an said.

All dolled up and ready for their next date." said Black Widow. "Can't you stop thinking about her?" "Not when I had a few more dates before I pop the question." said Blake. |

"Last I heard she was in New York, stopping that Skymaster near doomsday." Jamie said as he mentally reached out. "Ohh...wonder if she'd be considered a heathen to Miss Crystal maker...did you know she has her own hammer?" He turned to Donald. "Bloody She Thor she is."
"No, it is known some others were blessed with the power, should they be worthy." Krystalin said. "It's on the hammer, we all know the tale."
"There is another Thor here too. Literally a counterpart. Off in space he is...well, sometimes." Jamie laughed. "Crazy stuff innit?"

"Personally, I think Jane would make a better you than you yourself." said Blake. "I just hope that she hasn't found anyone else yet. Alter ego or no alter ego, that is the girl I want." "I would like to meet this other Thor, maybe I could invite him to one of those bars. Maybe we'll find some women to have fun with." said Thor. |

"She is not literally him with...girl parts. It is like Masterson or the Horse face guy. His powers, butnone of his...Asgardian mindset." Jamie clarified. "And no, not that I can see. Trying not to pry. But fear not, you just called out a romantic sub plot. I am sure the fat man will want to see if it will happen. Just...expect of those troll guys along the way or something."
"The Rock Trolls...I could meet one." Krystalin blinked. "Wow."

"The only troll who ever survived a fight with me is the one within that warlock." He pointed at Banner, who just facepalmed. Being referred to as a troll and warlock was somewhat awkward. |
