I had space to fill and decided I should fill it with original Star-Lord flavor icons

[getoffmyearth]

I'll see what kind of hand I can lend, then. Can't be any worse than the sort of thing I've seen before. And hopefully somebody sees fit to get the rest of my team out here to make the whole damn thing easier.

[Just Groot would be great, really, Groot could solve the whole problem by his big Ent-like self. Or Rocket! He would be so happy to see Rocket.]

That's a pretty long list of "no"s, ma'am, but I'll try to remember that.

[And he's probably going to do it anyway. It's part of his irritating charm, doing things like calling James Bond "Jim" and relentlessly calling Richard Rider "Richie" after repeated orders to stop.]

i haven't read much marvel to enjoy original star-lord flavor icons :[

[gevurah]

Much appreciated.

Unfortunately, I have zero experience with space and anything space related.

[ Batman probably does, but Kate? Nope. ]

I don't think you have to read it to be able to appreciate how stupid his costume was back then

[getoffmyearth]

Trust me, you're not doing too badly. You seem to at least have some idea, which is more than most people around here can say. And now I have more ideas than I did an hour ago.

Though if you don't mind my asking, how'd you get involved in all this stuff if you're not really a space person?

[All this organizational something and other. Imagine vague expansive gestures that mean "everything".]

it's okay he can work it

[gevurah]

Grew up on base. Army stint a few years ago.

If I can help in any way I can, I will.

[getoffmyearth]

I get it. I've been there. Hated it, but I was there. You're better adapted to out here than you think, then.

[gevurah]

Was taught to soldier on.

So that's what I'm going to do.

[getoffmyearth]

You have to admit we're not spoiled for many other choices around here.

[gevurah]

[ She could argue some are content to laze about instead of helping to remedy the situation, but she would prefer to keep a lid on her emotions. ]

Then we can stay on point.

[ Too many goddamn things to do, but they have to try. ]

[getoffmyearth]

Works for me. Apart from my general advice, anything I can do for you in the here and now?

[gevurah]

[ okay w/e self using the wrong icon ]

I'm good. Keep me posted, that's all I can ask.

[getoffmyearth]

[Story of my life.]

I'll do my best, ma'am, providing I don't suffer grievous injury or death sometime in the near future.

[gevurah]

And don't die.

[ Don't be Bucky and get yourself blown up!! ]

[getoffmyearth]

Your lips to my ears.

[Never mind that he knows he's destined for a nasty heroic death anyway, courtesy of Gamora. Good friend, best teammate, etc.]

But just in case, if something does happen to me, go to Adam Warlock or Gamora. Hopefully he'll pick up the slack in my absence, or hopefully she'll

[ -be ok if he does this to her twice- ]

decide to be helpful.

[gevurah]

[ Isn't Gamora a violent alien who would probably break Kate in a billion pieces if she tried to order her around. ]

The green lady, right?

[getoffmyearth]

[You have to ask nicely. Unless by some chance you get her to agree to follow your orders. Peter is never quite sure why she still follows him.

(He knows why she did it in the first place. She's never going to let him forget it.)]

With the really big sword, yep.

[gevurah]

I'll keep them in mind.

[getoffmyearth]

Try Adam first.

But obviously I'm going to try not to make that necessary.

[gevurah]

Don't do anything stupid.

[ She might not know him, but he sounds like a good person to have aboard. ]

[getoffmyearth]

[Too bad he has a tendency to do stupid things.]

Never. I promise.

[gevurah]

Good to know.
