Kev and Tasha
As soon as Skuttlebutt re-entered the orbit of the battlefield planet, Kev noticed that the ship belonging to the green nuns or whatever they were was already back in orbit. Good. Theirs hadn't been the only success. They came in for a landing.

	Tasha was talking to some of the members of the Badoon Sisterhood when the ship landed. She didn't react as she recognized the ship as belonging to Beta Ray Bill. She waited for them to emerge and find out how their quest went. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Kev emerges from the ship with a smile, walking over to Tasha -- not too quickly. Let he get a chance to see that he's the right color. "Got it," he says. "And no more mad than I was when last we spoke." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Natasha gave him a smile. "Good to hear on both accounts. We were successful in our quest." Was it too much to hope all of the others would be successful as well? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That's great! So, bright side of the worst case scenario is that Thanos can't have more than two-thirds of the Infinity gems right now." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	iron_widow 2010-06-07 09:38 pm UTC (link)
	Natasha nodded. "Something like that. It's two he can't have and that's always a good thin. I haven't heard anything from any of the others yet." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Likewise." Pause. "The Grandmaster thought now was a good time to play games with ...that bloke with the fire around his face? I really don't know much about mysticism. What happened to you?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"We teamed up with the Inhumans against Set's armies. We battled it out a bit and then realized the gem was right here the whole time. Came back here and found it buried under the Surfer's board." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well, that's just odd. Glad you figured it out." Pause. Carefully trying to keep everyone else's minds away from his. It's kind of hard. "Eh...Tasha? What happens if the others got theirs?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	iron_widow 2010-06-07 11:41 pm UTC (link)
	Natasha shrugged. "I honestly don't have a clue. I know we were supposed to retrieve them, but we weren't told what do to with them once we got them." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"And it isn' really self-evident what's best to do besides 'keep them away from Thanos.' I definitely canna keep this. It's safer than my old powers, but it still isn' safe." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	iron_widow 2010-06-08 12:02 am UTC (link)
	"Yeah, I know the feeling. I don't want to keep this one any more than you want to keep that one. Hopefully someone will tell us what we need to do or take these off our hands. Someone other than Thanos that is." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	better_now 2010-06-08 12:04 am UTC (link)
	Kev nodded emphatically. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I guess now we get to sit around and wait. Not that I'm complaining. Some quiet would be nice." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Sarah returns from the Shi'ar flagship, rejoining the other Exiles. She got on fine with Lilandra, but sooner or later, they need to plan for themselves. She's bearing a green gem as she approaches the others, a sign of one more success, guaranteeing them at least half of the infinity gauntlet now. "I heard the news, congratulations." (Reply to this)(Thread)

	iron_widow 2010-06-22 03:31 pm UTC (link)
	"Thanks," Natasha said cautiously. "I see you were successful." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	better_now 2010-06-22 03:33 pm UTC (link)
	Kev nods to Sarah. "So that's half." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It is, which should make me more optimistic, except the people we're fighting had the power of gods without the gems. Hopefully we get at least one more. As it was, I nearly died just fighting their minions to get this. You guys have much trouble?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	iron_widow 2010-06-22 03:55 pm UTC (link)
	"There was some fighting, but it wasn't rather difficult to get the gem." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	rogue_star 2010-06-22 04:52 pm UTC (link)
	"You're lucky then. We should probably start figuring out what we want to do next. Even if we end up with most of the gems, Thanos is far from helpless, and his allies are still gods." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	better_now 2010-06-22 05:36 pm UTC (link)
	"No dragons or nothing," Kev says, accidentally picking up on her thoughts. "But we did have a minotaur. Just didn't bother fighting it; sicced it on the other trouble." "Well, if we get them all, I very much vote somebody else for God. I'd make a very, very bad one." Kev twitches a little. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm voting for handing them over to someone on the side of the angels and getting the hell out of here." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Natasha looked at him. "Are you okay? I'd hate to put a bullet in your brain if I don't have to." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	rogue_star 2010-06-23 12:38 am UTC (link)
	"Ok, first of all, no bullets in the brain. That happened once, and not only was it bad for... well, an Exile shooting someone in the brain, but it nearly doomed us ever leaving that world. It might be the mind gem messing with him, in which case, someone else should take it. Second, Natasha, any thoughts on approaching the situation?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
