You need to maintain your wardrobe if you're going to dress to impress... (Frances)
Martin might've not really understood why people where so against teleporting in, but at least he was learning to respect it. Which is why the young mage appeared at the door of the West Coast Avengers HQ instead of right in their living room. He'd even sent those blue magic lights as messengers ahead of him. Okay, those things weren't patient, they were nagging little things really, but they counted as giving a heads up! And much easier than dealing with knocking. It got people to the door much better anyway.

Plus, not like this was too out of the blue. Annoying squeaking lights should've gotten the message across. There needed to be dapper suit shopping! He couldn't do it on his own. In fact, he'd even dressed up a little more, with a blazer and pocket square to go with his usual vest, hat and gloves ensemble.

While he waited for the slow people on the other side of the door, Martin occupied his time by examining the door itself, tapping it with his hat and looking to see what sort of magical protection, if any, the building had.

She was cinching up the vest's strap to fit better and looked herself over with an approving nod. Now they needed a good reason to dress up like this. "They're like little cufflinks for your collars with a little chain. Like the thingies holding the Doc's cloak closed," she described and pointed at where the closures would be on the good Sorcerer. His vest went drifting in the wrong direction and she steered it back towards him.

	He snickered then considered that. "Do you think I could do sunglasses? Or would it look funny?" He did have a pair, to use on the dressed up suit adventures, it gave the whole thing a GQ shoot vibe. Who said stylish and adventure couldn't go together? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Sunglasses and suits are snazzy," she assured him, even if it'd make him look like a tiny drunk rock star. Wait, not so tiny anymore, she corrected to herself. "The trick is to not snore or bob your head about as you snooze. You know, the I'm-awake head jerk that never works. But you have your hat, that could shade your eyes if you tilt your head just right." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Frances worked really hard on not laughing at Flava-Flav in the mirror. "Don't over-do it, Kiddo. Now you really look like you've had too many dirty martinis and need no one to notice." Add a goatee and he'd be a young Tony Stark, sprawling in his chair and ignoring the meeting. "Yeah, no, skip the combo." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Eww," he wrinkled his nose. "I'd have clean martinis. Why would you want dirty ones?" But he agreed, the combo would be too much. "Okay, you're not supposed to where hats inside anyway, so I'll just wear sunglasses for boring stuff if I want to sleep." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He beamed more, taking the laugh as a sign he did it right. "Well once they see your suit they won't want to shoot you because it's that great. They'll have to stop and ask where you got it and then you can catch them." At least that's how he'd do it if he saw an awesome suit. Get the provider of the suits first, then catch the bad guy. Priorities in order. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
