HH can name all the Avengers in order of their joining though

Are you sure that's not with orage sherbet instead of orange juice?

> That's not an adrenaline rush. It's an embarrassment rush.

He should only be embarrassed if he breaks something important.  I'm sure Liu Xi would tell him so if he would calm down for a moment.

 
> > As a side note, I'm sure Liu Xi is also curious what exactly attracts him to her - whether it's the person or the power he likes.

> It's the person. Vinny's grown up with powerful sorcerers and sorceresses all around him. He's not intimidated by power, but he's not attracted to it either. The most he'd do is casually note a neat trick, in the same way as an everyday person might say "nice catch."

From Liu Xi's point of view, though, it seems like he's always fascinated with her power.  She wouldn't be sure exactly what he's attracted to.

 
> > > And Liu Xi would be welcome in Vinny's alcove, although as you say there may be an element of clumsy mess-making.
> > Hopefully he won't break something expensive or would cause him to lose his security deposit.

> There's nothing at Altos that's worth that much.

Maybe not monetary-wise but there might be something with a lot of mystical or sentimental value to break accidentally.  Or then there's the security deposit he could lose by breaking things like doorknobs.


> > Even so Chiaki is just the kind of person who might cause a sudden reduction in Vinny's rent somehow.  Or at least cause his landlord to offer a very, very liberal payment plan.
>
> Alto has resisted pressure from protection rackets and the like due to his underworld connections - not the criminal underworld either. Chiaki would probably sense that the easiest way to secretly help out Vinnie would be to point some paying custimers his way.

She might do that too.  Though because Chiaki is perceptive, she can guess that the landlord may try to take advantage of the fact that Vinny has higher-profile cases and knows Lair Legion associates by raising the rent.  She would be just the person to prevent that.

But she might also send paying customers that way if she finds someone who needs mystic-type help.

 
> > Dancer can do that too, only using more questionable methods.
>
> What's questionable about being unremittingly nice to people?

I guess that depends just how far she gets the rent reduced.
