Take Your Son To Work
The Doctor stuff for Svalin had been going well. The family had been great to see. Now Vernique was going to check out the Nevell factories producing and shipping her perfume. And she was going to bring Solver with her. Let him see something different.

...Let him see different people, in different circumstances, who absolutely were not window dressing.

So she carries him around the floor telling him what's going on.

"Right now, the only think I'm interested in is the Coalition for Kicking Your Ass!" Toni shouted.

She pulled up and fired off a bolt.

"Oh lord help me, she's gonna zap me." Rolling his eyes, he absorbs the bolt and directs it into a vehicle, making it jump and explode. "Oops, I think that one's on you."

Well, crap. Okay, fine. Yet another bad guy who couldn't be solved just by zapping.

At least it had been unoccupied. Toni reached out and grabbed one of the vehicle's doors with an electromagnetic field. She flung it at Shrike.

She threw car bits at him, that was... He couldn't think of a good adjective because now he has to scramble like hell. Good thing he's half-decent at flying, he has to dodge ragged metal bits of doom. "Oh come on!"

"What?" Toni taunted, swinging a piece of door at him. "Can't you do this?"

Kenny scooped up a warped length of rebar. "I make do." He swings wide to dodge the bit of a Dodge before zooming in tight, hoping to knock her off her platform or even cut her with his gauntlet.

Toni's being careful, guarding her shoulder (damn thing still hurts) a bit, but doesn't quite dodge entirely. The blow is enough to hurt, but her concentration is strong.

Instead, she unleashed an electromagnetic field, trying to get a grip on those gauntlets. There had to be enough metal there.

There's a lot of satisfaction in the fact he's actually hit a hero, annoying and two-faced bastards that they are.. Kenny notes it, that this Avenger is favoring a side more than the other. Could be useful if this goes to hand-to-hand...

"Urk!" He lurches when his gauntlets jerk him around, casting him off-center.

"What's the matter?" Toni asked. "Having a little trouble?"

She jerked her line, intent on slamming him into the wall.

He grits his teeth and braces for his fall. The armor takes most of the blow but he'll be sore later. Luckily, or some messed up version of luck, there's a live line cracked open the wall for him to grab. The armor's damaged and less protective, but he holds it together to shoot the electricity up at her and short her out. If possible.

Really, guy? Using electricity on her? Mutant trumps technology every time, and Toni just absorbs the blast. The snags him again for another smack.

Rummaging in the rubble, he puts on a good struggle as he feels himself being lifted. Once she's picked him up to drop him, he chucks the phosphorous bombs at her, igniting and blinding the area with the chemical light.

Toni's goggles, fortunately, are not just for show. As much lightning as she throws around, they're actually eye-protection. The flash is bright, but only enough to make her wince and not enough to disrupt her concentration.

She slams him into the wall again.

Well great, there goes his shot at escaping while she was set-back and distracted. He hits the wall again and uses the blades of his gauntlets to hook into the wall and hold on. "I am not your damn hacky sack!"

"Funny," she said. "Because you're doing a good job."

Still... Toni concentrated, hitting him with another electromagnetic field. There was more than enough metal in his gauntlets and costume to magnetize him.

And draw in any loose metal near-by.

Kenny does his best on wriggling to get out of the bind, not feeling the odds are with him. "I can't tell if the old guard of the Avengers was the biggest bunch of jackasses, or if the new bunch have perfected the title." When the muffler comes whizzing at his head, though, he's pretty sure it's the latter.

"Oh, shut up," Toni said. She smiled to herself. Looks like the next piece was headed right for his head.

Kenny's eyes widen and he starts cursing, but only gets through three good phrases before there's a clunk and he's out.

Toni allowed herself a smile. "About damn time."
