[Johnny just finished getting settled into his new place. He still has a long list of things he actually needs to get done. But he’s putting that off until later. ]

Well, I’ve been here for a while now, so I figure I might as well introduce myself on this thing. The names Johnny Storm. This isn’t my first world jumping adventure or whatever, but the last place I was in was way different. But I won’t go into detail about that.

[He says, waving it off slightly.]

Anyway. Just moved from the terrible apartment that I got when I arrived and into something ten times better. Last place had awful itchy bed sheets, poorly made furniture. I got the feeling that if I fired up in that place I’d burn it down. Roasting the furniture might have been doing the places décor a favor.

So I have introduced my handsome self to you all, now you all do the same.

[Another man with an amusingly large ego? Karla can't help giggling. She can't argue about him being handsome, though.]

Hello...I'm Karla. I'm a Deputy Guardian for Genessia City.

[burnwithawesome]

[Hey. He'll have you know, his ego isn't large. It's HUGE.]

Well hello Karla, Deputy Guardian for Genessia City. If you are a deputy, does that mean if I do something wrong, you'll put handcuffs on me?

[swordprincess]

[Well, that got awkward real fast. What kind of question is that?]

Ah...well...I think knocking you out would be more effective.

But why would you ask a question like that?

[youfool]

[Well, if the handsome many says so, Ted will obey.]

"Hello Mr. Storm. I'm Ted."

Is that your real name? You were born to be a weather man, dude.

[ Tony was actually speechless.

Sure, he knew things around Genessia were weird. He knew there were countless dimensions and alternate versions of the same people and he even knew that there was probably more than one Tony Stark out there in the multiverse, but this? This guy?

Maybe it was the lack of sleep playing tricks on his mind. Maybe this was what finally going crazy felt like. Or maybe there really was a man walking around with a face eerily similar to Steve Rogers and the exact opposite of his personality. ]

... can you repeat all of that?

[ His brain had started to shut down right after the first few words. ]

Now that is one heck of a name! Name's Nick Valentine, and I'm disappointed that we never crossed paths in that apartment.

Cause it doesn't seem like it would be such a terrible thing if a cute girl like you did it.

[burnwithawesome]

It is. I'm part of a long lineage of Storms. And no thank you. Weather man would be such a boring job. Although my face is pretty much made to be in the public eye..

[burnwithawesome]

You aren't being serious, right? I can replay the message for you, if you are in disbelief. [Cause he can't recall all of what he said off the top of his head.]

[burnwithawesome]

[Whoa! That's sort of a..unique appearance. Looks like of like a robot or something.]

You don't have a bad one yourself. It's the sort of name I'd expect a movie star to have or something. And I tried my best not to stay in there unless I was going to bed. Probably not the worst apartment in the world, but definitely not one I want to live in.

[swordprincess]

Even if I knocked you out?

[Video]

[burnwithawesome]

That might depend on how hard you hit me.

[Video]

[swordprincess]

Well, if you're unconscious, what difference does it make?

[Video]

[burnwithawesome]

Because my head will be hurting pretty badly when I wake up.

[Video]

[swordprincess]

You poor thing. If you behave, I might nurse you back to health.

[Video]

[burnwithawesome]

What a sweet woman you are. Hurt me and patch me up.

[Video]

[swordprincess]

What can I say? You are quite amusing. And handsome as well.

[stairsbro]

Yeah, you're pretty much as attractive as they come. [ ... ] Okay. We all know it's true facts so I ain't even going to backtrack that one. You should be in films.

[burnwithawesome]

Please, just call me Johnny. It's a pleasure to meet you, Ted.

[video]

[mechanica]

No, I said it completely for fun.

[ Despite his initial disorientation sarcasm came as easily as it usually did. It was a good defense against thinking too hard. ]

Don't bother. I can do that myself. What was your name? Jack Frost or something?

[youfool]

[Not a phrase he's used to hearing much, polite or otherwise. The smile grew another inch.]

"Likewise, Johnny. Tell me about yourself."

[burnwithawesome]

All things that naturally come to me. But thank you for noticing.

[burnwithawesome]

Well you already know my name. I'm from NYC, born and raised. I have a sister back home who is very beautiful, a natural thing for us Storms. I have a brother-in-law who happens to be the smartest guy in the world. He's also the dumbest smart guy in the world.

I love a good party or hitting the club. I really wouldn't get tired of it if I spent most of my evenings doing that. I was in training to be a NASA astronaut before I got kicked out of the program for some..indecent conduct. Still ended up going to space on a mission with my sister, though. Got hit by some cosmic radiation and got superpowers.

I didn't think you'd try to backtrack. No one can deny my good looks.

I wasn't in films back home, but my face was definitely on TV a lot. Talk shows, the news, TV segments, commercials. All over the place.
