Young Avengers Again

tl;dr ~ the young avengers are at it again! cassie lang went to her friends in the hope of reforming the team, even growing the team, and can you believe only one little snaffu reared its head for them? of course, it’s nothing the young avengers can’t handle together !!

CASSIE

she took a private, small breath before she picked up the giant bowl of popcorn she'd made them. all her nerves stemmed from one fact: she wasn't going to keep quiet anymore. cassie was restless and already in major training for Stinger, and it was well past time she talked to the team about that, "alright my dudes," she calls out, plopping the popcorn on the coffee table, looking from billy to teddy to kate to noh-varr, who perhaps had never been on a team with her, but he was indeed a young avenger now, just like the rest of them, "I've been thinking a lot-- scary, i know," she smirks, reminded that at the end of the day, she's simply around her friends at the moment, "but... i want to reform the team," it was blunt, but her gaze was curious, gentle. she wasn't sure if this would be too much for anyone, she couldn't blame them if it was, but she wasn't going to be able to keep it in much longer anyways. she opened and closed her mouth twice as she tried to figure out what to say, but instead just looked around again, "thoughts? good, bad, ugly?"

NOH-VARR

noh looks at the popcorn placed down on the table, leaning in to observe the food. he takes a few out of the bowl, to take a bite of it. there’s a pleasant surprise to how good it was, and he decides to make a mental note to ask where he can get more of this later. he starts to pay attention when cassie walks in. he has never been on a team with her despite the fact they were both young avengers. upon hearing what she was thinking about, it doesn’t take him long to come up with an answer. “well you can count me in. i quite miss our adventures together.” the alien looks at his friends, and then back to the woman with a grin of his own. “ I still have my ship if we would need transportation.” he mentions as he crosses a leg over the other.

BILLY

the witch always loved to hang out with cassie, and all of his friends no matter what the occasion was. they were important to him whether they were on a team or not. while billy hasn’t exactly stopped the hero work, wiccan was very much around when he needed to be, especially now that he had a lot more experience and control over his magic. however, he missed the team too. he raises an eyebrow at noh eating the popcorn for the first time, and then shrugs his shoulders as he focuses back onto cassie talking. “You want to reform the team? well if you ask me we should have done that a long time ago. count me in as thinking this is a good idea.”

KATE

kate likes to imagine she knew cassie better than she knew herself in most ways, still the team think shocks her a bit. a smile spreads across her face at the suggestion. though, she can't help but ask, "tired of hawkeye and stinger already?" her words carry a lightness and a jovial tone. "it's just another one of your genius ideas, cass. of course i am all for the team reforming." a brief pause and her smile becomes fond, "i've missed fighting crime with you losers way too much to consider saying no."

TEDDY

Teddy can't help but smile at Cassie's news. Of course he smiles, how could he not? He loved the team, loved the work they did together even if it was dangerous and difficult sometimes. They were easily his closest friends - and besides, he and Billy have still been doing the whole saving people thing, even if they had taken a break for a little while. "I'm in. Though I bet you already knew that." He answers immediately, glancing over at Billy for a moment. "It'll be nice to have the team back together rather than just us, right?" His gaze turns back to Cassie, tilting his head to the side a little. "What did you have in mind?"

CASSIE

okay first off, the fact that noh-varr has a ship brings a grin full of mischief and surprise that it's impossible to hide it from the people that know her best. still, she resists going off on that curious tangent, making a mental note to definitely find out what this ship can do. staying at the task at hand, she blinks, smiles and nods as she composes herself-- no matter how serious she was, cassie lang couldn't hide that moment. still, each agreement brings a wider grin to her face, a few more inches (figuratively, for now at least) to her height. she glanced only briefly at the few empty spaces where others would be... soon was all she could think before the present caught up to her again. beaming, she clasps her hands together as she launches in."i mean, if we have hawkeye and stinger, and wiccan and hulkling, we may as well just smush 'em together with this alien guy i haven't had any adventures with," she's grinning, shooting a wink at noh-varr. cassie stood as she explained, excitement demanding it, "the avengers seem like they're in limbo right now, and we have a danger room we can practice in when we can't go off campus. also, have a think on how many other potential heroes our age are here right now," her grin fades, but into something more earnest. it's clear her mind's thought things through, "i mean, we have lanterns, the kids of the x-men, the justice league, other kids of the avengers too, and those are just the obvious ones," she bites her lip for a moment, choosing her next words carefully, "the thing about the avengers was that they had so many people to call on at any time. that's what i've been doing to get Stinger going. but now that they're in this limboish state, that's gone for our generation. and we're all already trying to fight people. we just need to show that it's happening, so everyone's not off trying to fight Galactus on their own if he shows up," and, as she finishes, she knocks on a piece of wood, just for good measure.

NOH-VARR

Noh keeps his attention onto Cassie as she speaks knowing how important this was. He was the most proud of his work with the Young Avengers, it helped shape him into a better person. He would always help them because after all that’s what friends do. He wants to be a good asset for the team, and ultimately wants them to know that they can count on him when it comes down to it. “Well we can be introduced now. I think we will be good friends.” He says with a smirk as he looks back to Cassie. “It does seem like the perfect time for us to rise up again, the world does need us to kick some ass as you say it.” He says with a sense of confidence.

BILLY

Billy had been continuing to fight anyway, but what could be better than doing it as a team again? He always loved their adventures so he can’t help the smile on his face as he’s listening. “If they’re taking a step back then we need to be the ones to rise above and protect the world from the threats that will be coming in. No matter how small or big they are. I think we can handle it.” He says, using a wave of his finger to bring his coffee cup to his hand, taking a sip of the hot liquid.

KATE

First and foremost, Kate Bishop was a hero. She loved it more than the hours spent in soup kitchens, cleaning up parks, or any of the other activities she took up to ease the guilt her now former wealth left within her and, somehow, hopefully, change the world. In purple spandex, it finally felt like she was helping people and the world. With or without her team, it wasn't something she had ever given up or something that she could imagine ever giving up, no matter her preference for with. “I'm all for picking up the slack around here.” She grinned. “Who did you have in mind for new blood, Cass?”

TEDDY

Teddy can't deny it'd be nice to be part of a team again. He and Billy have been doing their own thing for a little while now, but it'd be nice to have everyone together again, to work on things with the team rather than just the two of them. It's something they both love, why not make the most of it? "You're right, Cassie. It's one thing to be ready - but it's totally different to have a team that's ready too. Especially with so many people we're not used to yet." He's sure they can all find a way to operate together, but teams are built on hard work, on getting used to the way other people work, how everyone's powers operate and how to fit them together. And they need to start somewhere. "Like I said, I'm in. 100%."

TOMMY

Tommy had been keeping quiet this whole time. He didn't expect this to be the conversation they would be having today, nor did he expect the way it would make him feel. He could have sworn he was over this years ago, but it seemed instead he had just bottled it up and made himself forget it was there. Now that bottle had been smashed and the wound reopened. Part of him wondered why he was even here, after all they hadn't had any trouble moving on without him over the years. Maybe it was just formality or maybe Cassie really was just that much of a sweetheart, but he couldn't help feeling out of place here. "I'd just like to remind everyone in this room that I never left the Young Avengers," he said finally, he couldn't keep his sadness hidden from his tone, nor could he hide the edge of anger the crept in alongside it. "The Young Avengers left me." With that Tommy stood up and grabbed his jacket. "I can't say I'm in because I've never been out. I was always in. I always will be." Then he walked out of the room.

CASSIE

all at once, it's like cassie's hopes and dreams are materializing in front of her. she couldn't help but giggle at noh's comment, first impression going relatively well ( especially with the space ship ) and somehow her grin continued to grow. still, her eyes trailed over tommy more than once, noticing a different reaction, even if it was silent. "well, i think miri would be a good fit, and i think she needs somewhere to use her magic," cassie said confidently, "but i have ideas," her smirk sold nothing but mischief. cassie nods at teddy, "exactly, a new team means new training, figuring news things--" and she was cut off as she saw tommy stir, instantly nodding to give him the floor. her mouth hung open as he spoke, not expecting this in the slightest. cassie's brow scrunched together, looking to the others, who were actually present to know the details of what happened. as he got his coat though, cassie stepped forward, already walking after him, "tommy, wait!" she pauses before leaving the room, turning to the rest, "okay, to be continued, but mostly a success i'd say?" she says, ghosting a quick smile before dashing out the door after her friend.
