[ Filtered to all City Solutions employees: ]

This is a notice to inform you of some minor redecoration that will be taking place at City Solutions today. Rest assured that no labs or offices will be changed without their owners' permission; all changes will be focused on public areas such as the lobby, break rooms, and cafeteria. Anyone interested in participating or giving input is welcome, so feel free to contact me via the network.

Thank you for your cooperation.
Pepper Potts, CEO

 

[ ooc: Pepper is taking advantage of the curse today to make some changes around the office. Unfortunately, she doesn't realize that all her hard work will have been for naught once midnight rolls around. All City Solutions employees or frequenters of the premises are welcome to run into her as she's working-- she'd love to meet any and all employees she hasn't met yet! ]

[ Don't worry, she's not scared of him or anything, she just raises an eyebrow. ]

I am. Is it safe to assume you're from some alternate universe to mine? [ She's new to the concept but is taking it in stride. ]

[awildhulkling]

I think so, I'm an Avenger like Mr. Stark.

[ A teeny tiny one, okay? ] It's nice to finally meet you, Ms. Potts. [ /FANBOYS ]

[threeolives]

Ah. I heard that in some other universes there were more Avengers than just the six I know.

It's nice to meet you too, ... [ This would be where you introduce yourself, young man. Think you can put your fanboying on hold for thirty seconds? ]

[awildhulkling]

Teddy, sorry. Or uhm, Hulkling, but you can call me Teddy instead.

[ He's excited, this place is super cool. ]

[threeolives]

Hulkling? Are you somehow related to Hulk?

I'm not a big fan of using codenames in everyday conversation, though, so I think I'll stick with Teddy. And you can call me Pepper, none of that Ms. Potts stuff.

[awildhulkling]

No, not really. I just kind of Hulk out like he does. [ Sometimes explaining the fanboy way is hard. ]

Okay, Pepper then. [ He sounds pleased, he is. ]

[threeolives]

Well try not to do it around City Solutions, alright? I'm only just redecorating and don't want a ...Hulkling running around ruining it. [ That's okay, no matter what the explanation, her understanding of "Hulk" in Avengers context is still pretty limited to the concepts of large, angry, green, and the word "SMASH" ]

[awildhulkling]

[ He smiles, slight and almost bashful. ] I promise. I mean, I'm pretty in control and I don't really get the angry green mist of rage.

[threeolives]

Really? You ought to give Dr. Banner some lessons then.

[awildhulkling]

I don't think it'd work. His does work on rage, I'm just able to shift.

[threeolives]

Interesting. So it's not related to radiation? The only similarity being the ..symptoms, rather than the cause, as it were.

[awildhulkling]

Sort've. I just. I look like he does when I'm in my - [ Natural? Normal? ] Other form. And the name Hulkling stuck.
